What IS that thing?

[indyfan31]

I got a question, and to answer it you probably have to be:
a) a drummer (or a drum tech) and
b) a Cream fan.

I was watching the Cream reunion DVD at Albert Hall and noticed something in Baker's drumset. On the right side, just below the ride is a round "thing" that looks like a small RotoTom frame. Anyone know what that thing is?

You're right, it does look like a roto-tom frame, but I think it's a mic cage, or at least that's what it's being used for.

I was thinking a fitting ring for a diaphram. :laugh:

Kind of what I was thinking, it's just a weird place to put a mic, and pointing it up doesn't help.

It's pointing straight toward Ginger; drum mics are omnidirectional.

A camera, perhaps. :)
