On the issue of Larrys drums, I think it would be cool if he got a custom emblem like Stewart Copeland, Tico Torres, and Steve Ferrone have on theres. (check out some recent Police, Bon Jovi, and Tome Petty videos)
What guitars do I have?
1976 Gibson Ltd Ed. Explorer (natural finish)
1997 Washburn EA20 Festival Acoustic (black finish)
1998 Fender "Eric Clapton" model Stratocaster (pewter finish)
2000 Danelectro DC-59 12-string electric (blue sparkle finish)
2002 Taylor Big Baby (autographed by Mr. Daniel Lanois! - natural finish)
2002 Rickenbacker 330 6-string (burgundy-glo finish)
2004 Gibson J-185 Jumbo 12-string acoustic (tobacco sunburst finish)
2004 Fender Telecaster Custom (MIJ) (black finish)
2006 Epiphone Les Paul "Music Rising" (black finish)
2007 Danelectro DC-59 6-string (black and white like Jimmy Page's =O)
2008 Epiphone Les Paul Standard "Slash" signature model (tobacco finish)
Ah yes... lest I forget... I have a Taylor GC-8 on the way. Natural finish and slot headstock... LOVELY guitar. Old school look with the slot headstock... Beatiful looks and even MORE gorgeous tone.
The Vox Pathfinder in the pictures that I posted is a 1998. It's a solid state practice amp. And in that, still has a warm and oddly HUGE sound to it. The other amp I use for playing out is a (I think) mid-1990's purple Vox AX30TB. Nice sounding and the purple covering is cool as it comes. I also use my buddies 1965 Vox AC30TB from time to time. (It's got the tan-ish covering)
Cool if Larry got emblems on the bass drum? I guess it could be but this IS the guy that played a plain black drum kit from 1980-1995 and then an all white since 2000 to now... (since 1997, is you include the Popmart B-Stage kit).
He should get a bass drum head that simply says F.O.A.D. Now THAT would be VERY Larry to have that.
They could have made a cool "Vertigo" emblem, similar to that on Edge's black Line 6 Variax 700 (used for "The Fly"). That might have even been mentioned in production meetings but I think Larry is a bit more 'no nonsense' than that. I am sure that they had to talk Larry into the main stage kit used for PopMart (each drum was a different colour sparkle finish - the bass drum was gold sparkle, rack tom was red, floor toms blue/silver fade... and the main Brady snare drum and Peter Erskine piccolo snare staying their natural finish.)
