Are they allowed to use the trademark scarabs anymore?

It's an extra $2.95 to put those on.

Oh. Irving must have told them they are not part of the 2011 budget. :D
He will turn that $2.95 into a couple mil in no time!

Very good question. Basic black drum heads are a complete waste of space! Geez, it's free advertising...not just at shows, but in every pic & YT vid passed/linked around. They should have the current album cover on both bass drums. And I've long been an advocate of putting their official URL at strategic places on the stage.

It's all so simple and free advertising & promo. It blows me away that they refuse to do this tour after tour.

Maybe they should put $8.95 on the drum heads to advertise the price of the new CD.

They should change it to SCABS, and put that on the drumheads, cause right now their legacy is bleeding.....

I'm thinking they triggered nasty acid flashbacks for Ross...

Yeah, and I can see where that packaging might have caused a budget overrun. :roll:
