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.

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.

drumfreak Says 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!
