Igor isn't in Soulfly. Although Max and Igor are talking again and working on another project together. I'm stoked.dwtoast72":2ihryshw said:I've seen him use them with soulfly!!!

Nope. Igor has been a Pearl endorser for years. Max formed Soulfly after he left Sepultura. Max and Igor just started talking again last year after 11 years of not talking to each other over issues with Sepultura's old manager Gloria Cavalera (Max's wife). Max left Sepultura after the band fired Gloria and Max and Igor didn't speak to each other until last year when Igor left Sepultura.dwtoast72":1jsnd8lr said:pretty sure he was at a point, he was playing a tama forest green sclassic kit, at the house of blues, Myrtle beachTimekeep69":1jsnd8lr said:Igor isn't in Soulfly.

do you have any? ive wanted to get a set for a long time, even before i got into dream theater and heard portnoy uses them (and he uses them all the time). theyre really cool effect drums but i find it hard to justify the money to get them.dwtoast72":262qfrlb said:I've been thinking about incorporating a couple into my kit, just not sure considering I haven't a clue what the future holds
Fuck yes he dose!!!!! Just listen to the Sailing the seas of Cheese album great work!!!Johnny Cat":1gj8ll89 said:For me Tim Alexander definitely does the most interesting stuff with them.
that's an incredibly interesting positioning for those octos!! Not where I would expect to see themm":3qbipyc2 said:I had mine wrapped to match my Tama kit, but I probably won't take them on the road either, they're hard to pack and transport. Fun recording with them, though.
I think I'll probably use my DW piccolo toms rather than try to take the octobans with me; they're much easier to position on the kit, and they can share a mic with the toms.

thanks very much! I have struggled with finding the optimum placement for my style, and so far that seemed best.dwtoast72":28qf2wwi said:that's an incredibly interesting positioning for those octos!! Not where I would expect to see them
