Hello All,

I have a silly question of sorts. (Maybe two parts)

Is :halo: Animal's drum set an actully set of drums or just created for the show?

If it is indeed a real drum set can anybody give me an idea of what set it is?

Thanks All

I have no idea, but I don't think it's a real drum set, because the Animal puppet doesn't look that big, so a real drum set would hide Animal :halo:

It's scaled to size to fit :halo: , so it's smaller then a real drum set, but most likely is not real. That's not to say it's completely false as it has working parts (ie the high hat) to simulate realism. I doubt that the skins on the actual drums are real. For sound purposes, it'd probably be smart to make them out of foam so as not to make too much noise (there would be a lot of clanging and accidental noise I'd imagine from Animal's sticks hitting the rim of the drums that would not be beneficial to the recording).
