#3149, but that bass drum cannot be practical in a marching band.

Hehe, I found a larger bass drum than yours (in case you want an even larger ).
I was looking for various ways to play the orchestral/concert bass drum for a song project I am working on, and found this video... this bass drum is giant :

Concert Bass Drum 3: Playing Techniques / Vic Firth Percussion 101

Nice!
There is an optimum between playability and sound, with a 26 inch BD, you cannot get from the BD tom to the floor tom properly. Not at the height I sit anyway. A 28 inch would make that even more difficult. I would like to try it though, just to see the look on the engineer's face!

The ones I have seen are about 20/22 inches

Tuesday is senior citizens day at the local pizza parlor. All-you-can-eat pizza buffet for $10 plus tax and tip, if you're over 55 IIRC. Until about the end of 2022 it was $8, according to my old credit card statements.

I time my arrival for mid afternoon, between the lunch and dinner peaks, when I can normally get a table in five minutes or less. Today they were unusually busy. I had to wait about 15 minutes, standing just outside the door to start with. This is when I left, about 4:30 PM. The line is about three times as long as when I arrived (total length, inside and outside).

Oldham, I know this is the same view over and over but when the sky keeps presenting itself like this, it is too hard to resist!
