Anyone playing Dream cymbals. I using a 20' energy great for rock&roll and jazz. I don,t remember the price but much less tha most others . I have a zildjian 21 K that I purchased new in 1959 and like the sound of the Dream better. jz.

I've been playing Dreams for a few years, and I love them. I play (in one config. or another) 14" Contact hats, a 22" Dark Matter Ride,  a 17" Bliss crash, or a 20" Contact crash/ride, and an 18" Pang.

look at my namm day 2 post... there is a new dream from their dark matter series that floored me.
Lighter so not so good for rockers but it was awesome.

however very nice cymbals for the money. Just have to find the right one because they are all over the map in consistency.

True. They are handmade, so you won't get the consistency of a Euro. style cymbal, or even that of one of the larger cymbal companies.
