One top tom, a big-ass bass drum, a floor tom the size of an oil barrel  and a big, deep snare. One crash, one ride. As a non-drummer, that's the setup I trust most. If your drummer is rocking that kind of kit, you're in business, in my experience at least.
As a drummer, I agree with you  :P
There is no problem so bad that you can't make it worse.

I like splash cymbals, have done ever since Killing An Arab. They probably are a marker of the meedly drummer though .. almost as good a marker as rototoms.

When did you kill an Arab?
