Did anyone catch that there was a Cocktail Drum integrated into the Chili Peppers' drum kit? http://static5.businessinsider.com/image/52eefa35eab8eada4393cffd/bruno-mars-and-the-red-hot-chili-peppers-take-over-super-bowl-halftime-show.jpg http://cbsnewyork.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/bruno-mars-and-...

Check out the :udig 'Gold Coast' style kit that Karen Carpenter starts out on at 1:20

Cool vistalite kick and snare. The whole video is worth watching. Very 70s!



Enjoy

While not at all a Cocktail Kit, this deserves notice for the shared spirit of experimentation that Cocktailers have. I especially like hs Kick pedal solution!

Enjoy!

Thanks for the heads up. It looks like the Cocktail Kit is on Page 21

Hey Bruce, Did you use the 'Img' button in the tool bar? It puts BBcode tages in place for you: [img][/img] Then just put the URL to the image in there.

Hey Peter,

Thanks!

Happy New Year to Everyone!

May this be an excellent year and much Cocktail Drumming for all!

Awesome! I still can't make out the entire thing (this deserves some hi-res pics!) I love the pedal/straps! I have friend who did a one-woman-band and had an amazing setup with a bass drum/backpack with the top of a hi-hat stand through the shell coming out on top. The kick pedal was inside the bass...

Hey Mike,

Do you have any more pictures? It looks great but it's a little hard to tell exactly what is going on with some of the pieces. Looks like there is no pedal? And there is a washboard mounted somewhere -somehow...

Very cool!

Very Nice! Glad to know that an amazing company like Craviotto is keeping the Cocktail alive and well!

Yes! Escaping the shackles of seated drumming!

Playing the cocktail drum makes me want to shave my head and don an eye-patch!
