$30K
The Neil Peart 30th anniversary kit. And not as full as the real thing.
Someone should recreate this with a rack.

That's what I said!
Every bit of metal is gold-plated. Very blang.

anyone who buys a drum kit for 30k and plans on actually hitting it with sticks has got to be insane.
It was as if someone shook up a 6 foot can of blood soda and suddenly popped the top.

I just saw a $70,000 organ at Brook Mays going for $14,000 - 80% off!
No, not a penis. The kind of organ with keys and knobs and shit. It was like the Cadillac of organs, or maybe a Lexus.
Brooks Mays was such a shitty music store. Now they're fucked and going out of business because they tried to lie about their inventory for tax purposes.....counting rental instruments as regular stock, or something. Ha!
I was hoping to score some cool gear for cheap, but their prices are so high that 60% brings it to about the same price as a good online store.

Anyone who has $30k to spend on a kit like that has the priviledge of not only beating shiny, sparkly things with sticks, but also the good fortune to not give a hoot whether he is insane or not.

Spending $30K on anything Rush-related is totally beyond me.

$70K on an organ is nothing. Top of the line grand piano's like Bosendorfer's go for around $150K.

$30k isn't really that massive........
Mates kit has $2k of cymbols....
Whole kit is like $12-14k or something, with another fusion kit just as good for the jam room.
The guys been drumming since he was 8-9.....
Needs pro gear, that's just what it costs.
This one of course is more expensive cause it's signature.
