I know it says €59 is the price, but allowing for Western Union fees, post & packing, etc, you're looking at the guts of €150 all in (unless they've dropped their prices since a couple of years ago). Mine came without drumsticks but they're only a tenner a pair in any musical instruments shop.

Sorry, duff link. Go onto the TIFO home page, change it into English then it's the first item in the "Not by voice alone" section.

We have 3 snare drums and a bass drum (BPSC). We usually buy the snare drums from a local store but the bass drum(s) are usually 2nd hand. You should maybe contact any organisations/bands in Cork and ask have they anything. We got a few from the AOH in the past (For next to nothing).

We got a good drum very cheaply on eBay. Drums are very expensive to buy seperately when new, but can often be gotten hold of for a song second hand.

When we go north for the Setanta cup you could try scabbing a few off a kick the pope band.

But have they got anyone to beat the thing?

Maybe it's for the use of the away supporters!

we have 2 floor toms and a snare. I got the snare from a local music shop and the Floor Toms came from e bay and as Galway Harps says were fairly cheap

Nah, although a few lippy Corkies nearly acquired some distinctive drum-based headgear last year.

The drum is a bit of a sore subject round these parts, ever since Breifne managed to break the strap somehow
