Greg Steele's Slingerland replica kit


Greg Steele's drum kit evokes Neil Peart's Hemispheres through Signals period, with tubular bells, wind chimes, woodblocks, and glockenspiel.

Also, Greg's band "Free Will" is one of the better Rush cover bands I've heard. Check out Xanadu to see what I'm talking about. You can see more of Greg's videos here.  

I've been a Rush fan since 1977 when I tried to learn to play the "A Farewell To Kings" album on drums. Needless to say, it was quite the challenge at the age of 13. After playing in several bands from 1981 to 1987, it was now time to play the music I loved most, Rush. I put a Rush tribute band together and called it Free Will after one of my favourite songs. Here are some pictures of the kit I used from 1987 to 1991 in that tribute band.

The drums are Slingerland and were purchased new in 1982. Modeled after Neil's 70's & 80's kits.

thanks,
