Hear Ye, new gear!

I will playing along side the one and only, amazing Ben White, with the equally amazing Stefan Redpath destroying our souls with THEIR constistanly incredible music prowess!
So get along!

Ok...now to some more amazing stories.
Last week, Myself and fore mentioned Ben, took a trop into St Kilda to take some musical gear off of their hands. 
Little to our knowledge, these amazing people were giving us equipment that add up to a value of....wait for it...$8,000.
Yep.
Included in this was, (im guessing) a 10-15 year old, Pearl Masters MCX acoustic drum kit, along with 3 Zildjan K cymbals (ride, hats and crash) and hard road cases. all this valued at around about $5,000
here some pictures....





NOW, with this amazing gift, we were also given a Roland TD-12 V Drums machine brain, valued around - $3,000
with this machine Ben and I hope to merge it, together with the electronic kick pedal and snare drum, with the cymbals from an acoustic kit. 
We are hoping to create something with this kind of feel:
