 It's jam time. Do you know where your set is?
Just wondering...where's everyone keep there sets? Do you guys got more than one?
Me, I consider myself lucky. My house has a "home office" that after I got my first set, I pretty much took over and turned into my jam room. It's about the size of a one car garage. I got my set, 2 Fender 100 watters (guitar and bass) and a dual speaker PA system. Still enough room left over for the hommies to kick it and catch the jam session. People love coming to chill in the jam room and mess with all the instruments.
I want to also set up my old set either in the garage or in my room.

Mine is at my singers parents house (Where he lives for now). It's in a nice open basement with far too much guitar gear to name, and basically a small recording studio in the room next door. Not to mention a 52" LCD TV. We have a lot of nice stuff and are trying to rent our own space but that gets pricey for now. So we just bunk up in his parents basement and that's where my drums are

I keep one kit at our studio, 1 in my garage and as soon as I get my DM5 pro next week it goes in the spare room with my bass and amp. The only thing I have to move for shows is my brass. P.O.Y!

There's a room in my house that used to be a pool room, but we can't operate the pool so we put my drums in the room now. It's pretty cool for sound. You couldn't record in there of course, but it's fun to practice in.

They where in the basement, but we are building a room and a studio down there now, two had to go to storage (kiddos, sorry guys) and mine went to the family room, which now has an upright piano, a bass, sons acoustic guitar, a PA system, and some recording equipment. For some reason, my wife is very motivated about the basement now.

my set is stacked up in my living room.
the other set I play on, which belongs to the guitar player in one of the bands I play in, stays set up in the studio. it's an old ludwig much like mine except for the finish (walnut stain), a wood snare drum, and different cymbals.

my good kit stays set up at the studio
, my first kit is in the closet, taking up space, it might be time to let it go...
and my e drums are right next to me where they sit constantly testing my ability to ignore them...
a test I fail regularly..
but also they go direct into the computer for Garage band fun sessions...

In an unfinished addition above my garage. Big area with just insulation, electric, and lighting. Makes for a nice place to record (when there isn't trains going by).

I have my good set down in the basement. Along with about 4 pa's and to much guitar and bass gear. I think I need to start telling people to take their shit home. haha
I also have my crappier kit in my room awaiting the next DIY show I play. I don't trust those kids and my good set. haha.

My main big kit is in my guitarist's garage where we practice. My small backup kit is in my garage. I take the small kit on road trips and gigs with very small stages that won't fit my big kit.

as of right now i have 2 drum sets and 4 snares stacked in cases and bags in a spare room in my apartment they have temporarily become the tower on which my cats love to navigate. usually i keep them in our private, monthly, rented rehearsal room set up at all times which leads me to another question and i may make a topic out of this but.... the room becomes a bit humid and sometimes i lose sleep over leaving them in there which is the reason why i there at my house now. how long does it take or how bad does it have to actually be for moisture in a humid room to kill your drums?

My main kit's right next to me in my bedroom. Another one's packed in cases and bags, kept spread around the house:D And my first kit is at my bassplayers house, but since he's just got a doublebass, there no more space in his room for the drumkit, so I may have to move it to my friends studio in his attic once that's finished.
