Would having an in house kit attract a drummer?

Everyone’s been through it. Finding a good drummer sometimes can be like finding a Unicorn.

We’ve been searching for a drummer for a while now with really no luck. We’ve been discussing possibly buying either cheap e kit or a beater kit to see if that might entice someone a little more since they wouldn’t have to haul all their kit except maybe some hardware to a first audition.

Thoughts ?

[Wanted] oRANGE. - Stop Light Observations

Looking for oRANGE. by Stop Light Observations. I know there was an orange vinyl variant, but really I just want to be able to listen to it on vinyl so the base black variant is just fine to me (bonus if orange though).

I can't find any available copy anywhere, not even eBay. I have no idea if they'd ever re-press it, but it seems unlikely. Help?

First live performance! Next gig gear advice...

Had my first live performance with the band at an open mic this past Monday! It went great, and the bartender signed us up for an outdoors neighborhood festival gig!

I was using a 50 watt Orange Crush but just running through the house PA anyway. I'm thinking for an outdoor backyard/street gig without a PA, I'm going to need to upgrade to be heard independently.

We have a full drum set, guitarist on 25 watt amp, and keyboard and vocals on their own speakers. We don't play anything super intense, some indie rock and some slower things like Clairo.

Would a rumble 500 be overkill? Could I get away with a 100 or 200? Are there better options than these considering price as a factor?

Sunflower growing out of cement

This sunflower is 7.5 ft so far, and growing out of a crack in the cement in my backyard. None are actually growing out of the soil. When I realized what it was I couldn't bear to remove it. I'm just going to see how far it goes.
