Wow.
As my friend Andrew said, he's gonna haunt the shit out of whoever set up that kit.

I'm told there's a Facebook page dedicated to fucked up drum setups. People send in craigslist ads and such that are obviously people like parents and stuff who have no idea how to set up drums that their kids stopped playing and want to sell.

Really can't blame the producers for tilting the cymbals to get that awesome lighting. It's like us putting a phaser on a vocal. Of course that's not how it sounds/looks, but isn't it cool in its own right?

The tom just looks like it sagged down from the intended position.

TRUE STORY:

Back at my old loft in Boston, my upstairs neighbor was the drummer for Blue Man Group AND he was very short.

:shock:

I have three or four friends who've played with BMG in various cities. They're all total badasses, too. One of them is pretty tall.

One of the former drummers of The Poster Children was in Blue Man for quite a while.
