I wonder if I ever became a rock star whether I would start expanding my kit again, just because I'd have a roadie to set-up everything? Haha, thanks for the comment.

I thought a lot about this topic as well. My perspective is that when forced to play on a smaller kit, you find new ideas and ways to play what you have on front of you rather than more cymbals e.t.c, and I think it shows great skill to do so. Plus I agree, Jose is one of my idols but I ain't setting that shit up every gig haha Hey! I thought a lot about this topic as well.

Amazing drummer and only uses a four piece kit with hi hats and a crash/ride. Jose is my fav too though... If I had someone to set up my stuff, I would probably have a pretty big kit.

I think your formula explains it well. More drums = less skill. Although this isnt always true, it does say a lot. Cheers! Greg Hi Mark, Thanks for your comment.

While there are definitely exceptions (in both directions), I generally find an inverse relationship between drum kit size and skill - more drums = less skill. I have distinct memories of seeing iggy pop live, being blown away by the awesomeness of his drummer, and that he only had 2 toms! Almost the simplest kit possible, but he rocked it, in every sense of the word. As someone who worked in the music industry for years, and worked with many drummers of varying skill, I totally agree.
