Oh, how I would love to march my slim pad. Has anyone here given this any thought?

I've definitely given it thought and if I really wanted to, I'm sure I could find a way to do it. I don't really have that much of a desire to do it so I'd rather just throw it on top of my snare. Plus, having it on a snare lets you practice marching with the weight on your shoulders.

Very true, but it'd be nice to be able to practice my marching over the summer, while I'm not allowed to bring home my drum.

If anyone has some plausible ideas, let me know. I will do it >:D

I actually saw an ad about a company that developed marching snare pads, I checked it out..basically you just gotta get a harness and hook it onto a "plate" thats the shape of your pad and put the pad on there and play like that. Im sure there are ways to drive a harness straight into your pad though, never tried it though.

I've seen that. Absolutely no. The "pad" looks like a square of wood with a piece of rubber slapped on it.
