....in a fire?
If your drum room/studio is going up in flames, out of all the drummy stuff you currently own, what would you get out first?
And let's assume any family/pets etc have been safely removed from the place (not that many wives, cats and dogs etc usually frequent 'the drum area')
I'd probably go for my Spaun Silvervein 13x6 snare. |

I have a few sweet drums but I think I would have to rescue my old supra which has been with me through decades. |

I'd do that too, if it's not against the rules of the thread (there may be yelling shortly) 
I've got a few cymbal cases, so it'd be the one with the K Con BB and the Nolan Rogan Josh rides.
Seriously? Rogan Josh rides? *want* |

My 602 18" flat ride seven sound set. It looks like it's been in a fire already, and then dropped in a pond for a couple of years. But it sounds ace! |

If we're widening it to music stuff in general I'd be saving my Strat. It's a really special one that plays so well I doubt I'd ever find one as nice again. And yes I'd take that over any drum stuff.
Close the door on yer way out, you heretic!! |

My Roland TD-6 and amp. Why? Well, my two acoustic kits in my drum room are midrange kits I got pretty cheaply, the cymbals in there are all ok for teaching but not great for gigging, all my GOOD drum stuff is in the band van, I got the TD-6 for a song (£195) and it would cost me a hell of a lot more to replace that than the acoustic kits.
Well, either the TD-6 or my porn collection.

A pair of Premier model E sticks from the 60s in lancewood with an incredibly fine, slim taper. Absolutely nothing like modern sticks. |

None of my stuff is irreplaceable, its great gear, but its only stuff. |

I'd probably try to carry it all out, if my girlfriend was out safely I'd ask her to come and give me a hand carry some bits! |

Much of my stuff is irreplaceable, I would be incapable of making a rational or logical choice. Perhaps my recording gear on its trolley. |

Me. Without my hands the drums wouldn't make much of a sound. |

I would run down the street asking if anyone else had any drums they'd like to throw on the pyre.
Only kidding.
It would be the 20" "Standard Quality" Zyn that I bought for a fiver off ebay.
And, no, I'm not kidding. |

definitely not... most drum stuff is replaceable. even the stuff that isn't, there is another nice ride out there... but I would grab my imac. too much work and time and attempts at being creative have gone into logic files on there!
if I had a great mic selection that would be next in line. |

My old Pearl Powershifter double pedal- a heavy old beast compared to some but still my favourite of all the ones I have tried. Drums come and go, the pedal always remains!
