It would seem the universe wants me to start a band from scrap (pun intended). About a month ago I found a couple of electric guitars, one in good shape the other unstrung and beat up. Sold them for $150 and gave the wife the money for the promise of my son getting a guitar for Xmas (he's getting 2 now). FF to last week, garbage night, my neighbour goes for walks every night and finds me a printer and...a cymbal, Sweet! In good shape too. Was going to make a gong out of it for me and the kids until...doing a pick up last night, I'm dismantling this guy's b-ball net and he starts with the "will you take this bike...broken fan...another tv..." I say "yes yes yes" and then "this drum set has metal on it, you want that?" Are you kidding me? SCORE! The skins are beat, broken or gone but otherwise, four perfectly good pieces of a drum kit to go with my cymbal!
Let my 2 older ones try it out in the garage last night and my daughter is a natural! If only I had somewhere to put them!
