I enjoyed and used the phrase "very much" until I saw Nick Kroll do "Bobby Bottleservice", and now I very much cannot use it or see it without hearing him say it in my head.

LoLoLoLo

Okay, I am now cured of it as well and I very much appreciate you pointing that out. At least I used it to mean "very much" and not as a random place-filler. I'll go back to using "way."

From vibes

I had a A Zildjian 16" I used as a crash that was one of a pair of marching crash cymbals. It sounded great. Was thick but was fine. I used it most of the early 70's into the 80's. Marching Zildjian cymbals have a ring inside the keyhole that protected it from key holing with those leather straps.

These cymbals have a ring inside the keyhole as well. I still can't find the slightest sign of a stamp though. On the inside of the bell, there are very faint signs of lathing. I'll try these out tonight. Thanks for responding.

My very first real kit, a Trixon, came with an 18" crash that had a ring installed, likely to prevent further keyholing, as evidenced by the keyholing already present.

15" hats are a blast! Have fun!

Hi, Jeff!

Thanks. I tried these cymbals out as hats last night but, to be honest, they didn't quite measure up to what I was hoping. When open, they sounded pretty good. When closed, they seemed a bit clunky and dead. Maybe they are too heavy for my taste.I suppose they are best suited to good ol' marching cymbals. That's fine too. Man, they sure look cool though!
