Wicket & Pixie on Tosh 2.0

"Just caught this in a Tosh.0 rerun. No offense, Chris, I'm a big fan, but you should probably rethink your sexual orientation as Daniel Tosh has excellent gaydar. Even if it was a "Ponzi scheme," you were the one that posted it! :)"

"I got a 6-pc Yamaha Studio Custom. All Birch in dark red finish. Sweet sounding kit. Played a Pearl 5-pc for years until I found this one. I use Sabian crashes, a Paiste Hi-Hat and a Zildjian ride. Still prefer Pearl hardware."

What's your favorite part of the drumset?

For Steve Smith, it looks like the hi-hat. This shit is sick and looks/sounds even better on his DVD. See More

About my avatar/icon

Posted on January 13, 2009 at 7:08pm 0 Comments

The NeverReady icon was just a jpg I had on my hard drive after collecting some from websites about Wacky Packages. In 1977, all I spent my money on was Star Wars cards and Wacky Packages. I have the entire collections of Star Wars cards from the original triliogy including stickers, wrappers and even gum!

I chose NeverReady because I never seem to have any energy these days. A bit negative, I suppose....but hilarious! LOL.

Excellent icon! I used to collect Wacky Packages stickers when I was a youngster -- I had that very image on one of my grade school folders. Ah, memories.
