This July 4th, 2008, we at Drummer Connection threw quite a party and had lots of drumming going on out at my house. We had enough drummers on hand, and 4 drumsets going, to keep the party going on all night. If we weren't blowing stuff up, someone was in there drumming.
First up is Eli and his "I'm Big in Europe" t-shirt. For a musician, this shirt has got to be a huge inside joke. The video says it all... nice.
Next we have Damian jamming out on the Gretsch Catalina Club Kit
Eli takes a turn on the Gretsch Renown Maple kit.
Keith gets it going on the DW Rosewood Burl Collector's kit.
Damian demonstrates the awesomeness of an 18inch kick drum in a room packed with other drums. The Gretsch Catalina 18 inch kick is thunderous with an EMAD batter head on it! Don't let size fool you.
In between drumming from 8PM till 1AM, we managed to load up the truckload of fireworks and blow some stuff up.

Here's a clip of us blowing up the fireworks. Ahh, what fun.
It's a good thing I have a Jetpack Lawn Blower that I used to clean this mess up with...

Cleanup took 4 hours
Cleanup took like 4 hours even with the backpack blower. There was stuff everywhere! But, the launching grounds are now cleaner than when we started!

BOOM!
Looks like Baghdad out there!
