At exactly 14:21, you say "The tongue has got to fit in that other lip on the botton.' I AGREE COMPLETELY, I USED TO TELL THAT TO ALL MY girls in the hood. ALSO, AT 11:41Vyou say, 'Always do the butt first.' again, ur right!!! Seriously, your tips about how to easily & evenly put on the snares, on any drum, are very helpful!!!! Thank You !!!

Nice work ! Hi from France :)

[@jwmiller9089]

Billy Gladstone was definitely an interviewer. Arnie Lang Bill copies of the Gladstone snare he passed away a few years ago. Sadly no one has been able to put them back into production. If they did the drum would sell itself, I believe most of them were 4 ply shell.
