Trying out my new suitcase kick drum. I can see some sloppy foot work on the video so I will have to practice. It is recorded straight into the camera's built-in mic. Sounds big thru headphones.

Thanks Jeff!  I am now in the hunt for some SM-57s and 58s.  Part of my hobby in this is using as much homemade or used stuff as I can.  It's hard to find those used in my area.  Plus they are so good most people don't want to part with them.  Anyway, the fun continues.
