One thing I learned a long time ago, always, always,always have 20-60$ tucked away inside your stick bag for emergencies. This has saved me when the van ran out of gas, and of coarse everyone was flat broke!!! My emergency $$$ got us home and I was a hero for the night!!!!

[@drummerboyarnold3174]

you saved everyone there Imao

[@LEOsoulMonarch]

Ayeeeeeeeee!!!!!! The HERO!!!!

[@ferd1572]

1. A good pair of sticks (obviously) (haven't found my perfect pair yet) 2. Earbuds (so I don't turn deaf at the age of 20) 3. Confidence

[@TimBuell]

That is a great list of gear!

[@danieljung9078]

1. 3 different sticks(questlove signature, Josh Dun signature, a custom 2b, and 5b) 2. Drum key 3.driver 4.waterbottle 5.earbuds

[@TimBuell]

[@mont.gomerie]

[@boywithadrum]

Wonderful Tim! Thanks so much for including us! More to come from us, soon I hope! I appreciate you!

[@jahdiellafontaine2885]

1. Drum Sticks (Vic Firth Classic American Hickory 5A, ProMark Millennium 2 5C, Hot Rods) 2. Tuning Key (Standard DW Key) That's honestly it I don't take a whole lot lol even though I should.

[@craigthatcher]

I love having a 6” triangle in my bag. Sounds great played on a bossa for a nice variation.

[@TimBuell]

I need to add a triangle to my collection. I don't own one, not even in my studio - always a nice thing to have sitting around.

[@tim6155]

1. Sticks, Rods, Brushes & Mallets 2. 3 Drumkeys for drum sets and marching snares 3. Slapklatz and Meinl Cymbal Dampener 4. A pencil (if you want to change anything in ur notes) 5. An extra pair of ear protecors And thats it 😂😂

[@TimBuell]

Strong list! A pencil/writing tool is always a clutch thing to have. I always have a pencil and sharpies. Never know when/why you'll need one.

[@michaelsawczak5339]

This video was really great. Really loving this content man. Seriously, keep up the great work!

[@TimBuell]

Michael Sawczak thanks so much Michael!

[@ChrisTibaldiDrums]

Yes, the Nexcare Bandaide tape is incredible!!! You can find it at any CVS. I never go to a gig without some. Thanks for another great video

[@SandyFruitBasket]

3 pairs of 5a sticks 2 pairs of 5b sticks drum key ear buds (so i dont go deaf at 16 lmao) cymbal felts nice and simple but everything i need

[@TimBuell]

Ear plugs are key!

[@joelmccoy1989]

The last couple of years, I've found myself getting a lot of work in the musical theater scene. Since most pit orchestras get really crowded really fast, I have begun to utilize my Roland SPDSX for most of the large percussion instruments so my stick bag is usually just my Pro Mark 747W sticks and a pair of yarn mallets.

[@TimBuell]

SPD-SX is a GREAT tool for stuff like that.

[@joelmccoy1989]

@@TimBuell Absolutely! It's saved me so much time, money, and space! Especially when it comes to the external triggers you can hook up on the back. I also have 4 BT-1's that I place conveniently around the kit.

[@davidmcaninch4714]

They’re called Vic Firth Universal Practice Tips.

[@TimBuell]

Thanks David! I knew they were the Practice Tip somethings haha. They are super great. Use them all the time.

[@tylerbaker1292]

1. Screw-top, reusable water bottle. I don't like using single use plastic and cups tend to spill. 2. Small screw drivers to repair hardware. Helps especially with thrones and kick pedals. 3. A t-shirt to change into after I sweat through one on stage.

[@TimBuell]

Those are SOLID choices Tyler. Yeah, I have a leathermen that I should've mentioned that has screw drivers, pliers, knife, and bottle opener. Everything you need and I carry it in my pocket ALWAYS.

[@ScottShireman]

[@ricardolomeligomez3896]

What brand "bladder" do you use? xD looks like something you could get at REI maybe? Great video as always man!

[@TimBuell]

Thanks man! I honestly don't even know, I bought it at a discount store for like $3 haha. REI would def have them. Amazon. Where ever. Definitely worth having around when you need it.

[@demon-on7bx]

I’m sure it’ll be some where on the screen

[@ThiagoRiosDrums]

Your audio is incredible, what microphone do you use?

[@TimBuell]

Thiago Rios I appreciate that! It is always a work in progress, but always thankful when someone digs it. I use a shotgun mic AT 875R (I believe).

[@ChrisTibaldiDrums]

Hey Tim, You mentioned coming off the road a few times. What made you decide to stay in town, rather than tour full time?

[@TimBuell]

How long do you have?! haha. You can actually watch this video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZ3GnaeNq9B_fpI and that gives a lot more context

[@Travisdrums91]

I like your style!

My multitool (Leatherman Skeletool) has one. : )

[@ibnbad]

Six new condoms ,one pint whiskey, some autographed pictures, and a half oz. coke

[@TimBuell]

ha! What whiskey are you packing...?

[@ibnbad]

J.D.

[@ACEspada01]

@@ibnbad autographed pictures of who?

[@MalikEmmanuel]

it's funny because I carry 3 different pairs of brushes in my stickbag (I really only play two of them). I have a pair of those LIVE WIRES but I don't like the sound they give me.

[@TimBuell]

I totally hear that. Most of what I use those brushes for are trainbeat type grooves, when I play jazz I typically go with a brush that is a bit lighter than the live wire pair.

[@tylercarless946]

I going to get that backpack because I join a cover band
