New drums and flags

**Rory H** · 05/11/2006, 2:28 PM

[sorry just want something to talk about beside sean....]

the 2 badhrons did the job but we need something bigger louder and better....what are the websites and alan where did ye get the last one...how much??id love to have one and use one but im not the richest man in the world["he's only on petrol money"-roddy collins] and cant afford one by myself cos i can guess the cost is high!

maybe if we got the old one repaired and then collect as a group to get another..2 drums would do nicely for 2007....its the bitoredxp goal to get the main stand singing properly for 2007 season...2 drums could help

also im looking at getting a flag made and was wondering if anyone knows any good websites for them....also ideas on what to put on them would be good

cheers

A megaphone would be a good idea! I seen the Derry fans with one!
That would help get the stand singing for once i'd say!

is it a snare or bass drum your looking for WR? my snare cost about €150, bass is about €200 for a good one

I've seen a new marching band drum for 180. It'd be more suitable for the purpose than an ordinary bass, because it's specifically for the purpose, so a bit sturdier.
I've also seen a 10-watt megaphone for 42 euro - should be plenty loud enough.

Anyone seen better prices?

Excellent idea - I'm well with you on this. I can't get to Sligo that often to make much noise myself, but anything I can do in terms of info or ideas . . .

I'm with you on that one WR

**Rory H** · 06/11/2006, 9:45 AM

i just want a loud drum rovers1!something that wont break easily too..thats the criteria

**Rory H** · 06/11/2006, 2:22 PM

yeah i will but i think having it on here will get a few more

ill be collecting in bray for it....i made a small profit from the derry bus and thats gone to the collection too.so hopefully we'll be more than halfway by the end of the season

I seen the derry drum in the brandywell and its fecking massive they must of nicked it from the apprentice boys ,it plus the microphone gives out a lot of noise.

**SligoBrewer** · 06/11/2006, 5:57 PM

add a fiver onto the bus cost to bray for everyone and it'll make a tidy sum!

+ collection = new drum!

**DonalE** · 06/11/2006, 6:11 PM

I'd be happy to contribute,get the biggest mo fo of a drum ya can,no point doing it by half. Or if ya could get 2 and get the rhythm going

**Rory H** · 07/11/2006, 11:08 AM

**Rovers1** · 09/11/2006, 5:14 PM

**Red4Eva** · 09/11/2006, 7:18 PM

Ya can get them for E2 a pop in Italy.That's where we get them.Make sure you're not going to get in **** loads of trouble over it though there's bound to be one or two tossers who'll give out about it(like our club) even though yee'll get away with it.
