My mid-life crisis

[Aussie]

In my youngers years I was a full on muso and had a Pearl world series drum kit which I took everywhere. It followed me to studios and many pubs and I loved it like my rangie. My ex-wife sold it one day in a fit of agro (long story, no I wasnt unfaithful) anyhow 15 years later I finally bit the bullet and purchased this, a Roland Td9-sx (link below)

YouTube - Roland TD-9SX NAMM Booth Demo

I cant begin to describe how good this Kit is, I wish I had of bought another kit sooner.

I guess what I'm trying to say is we are only on this Earth once and we work hard, dont procrastinate go for it and enjoy what life has to offer. If you want it, buy it!!!

Mate, I couldnt agree with you more! We have been hearing of so many deaths lately of people around the 40 yo group! Cancer, heart attacks etc, and I have said to my clan that every day is a gift and should be enjoyed. Make plans for the future, but make sure they are achieved!

Good on you for the purchase ;)

Cost me just on $4000. Theres a funny story to it (well I found it funny) I went into the shop to look at an acoustic kit and the guy at the shop said we have this electronic kit have u played on one and I said "mate I'm from the old school,no electronic rubbish I have enough of that on my car" (he didnt get the joke) and he said with a little grin have a play on this mate its pretty good. So I played in the shop for about 10 mins and was hooked. I came home and googled the model and found the above video. Anyhow every night for about a month I would come home from work have a few cans and play the video really loudly. One Friday night after a few reds and playing the video several times my wonderful wife said For F*** sake I've had it, go and buy the damm thing Just dont play the video anymore or I swear I'll punch you in the head.

I'll post a video in the next few weeks
