Ok, so one of the things I decided to do this year was stop pretending to be a musician with the assistance of my XBox 360 and get back into playing music. I figured since I was previously a singer/guitarist and had attempted bass and decided against it that this time, I would tackle the drums. It's gone well so far. Been playing for two months and I think I'm advancing pretty well. However, I purchased a pretty cheap kit and of course, like all cheap kits, the cymbals suck. Since I don't personally know any drummers, I don't really know where else to go for this kind of thing beyond the condescending pricks at Guitar Center. So, any drummers know what I should be looking for with cymbals? I want to replace my crash and hi-hat and get myself a ride. Are there good cymbals out there beside Zildjian and Sabian? Should I grab anything else while I'm at it?
My band has gotten a few songs down pretty well (we're just doing covers and random jam sessions for now until we're a bit more comfortable with the way we all flow together), but they're going to let me pick a song since I've just been going along for the ride so far... and I, perhaps a little over ambitiously, chose Lechium. Anything I should know going into that song?
And if you're curious as to where I'm at, I can play Zetsubou Billy and Koi no Megalover by Maximum pretty well right now. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure only a couple of you even know who that is.
