Rings a bell, but I don't think I've seen the videos. Anyway, I'm off to leave earth, being escorted by an Arvo Part album. Ciao/chow!

I've seen some of those drum clinic videos on YouTube.  Have you seen Bruford and the Beat?  Some instructional video he made in the 80's (or with his 80's kit anyways), and quite interesting stuff.  I don't even play drums and I was interested.

Sometime last November, I think it was, at a church in downtown Ottawa where he hosted the drum clinic. There are actually 2 low quality videos of the clinic on youtube, if you do a search with keywords "Bruford" or "Drum Clinic" and "Ottawa" you'll find it.

When did Bruford use that kit?

I would marvel at how awesome it is that you have a kit previously owned by Bruford, but that would clearly stroke your ego, and I'd hate to do that.  So:

Haha, you have a second-hand drum kit!  Everybody knows that any respectable drummer buys a brand-new kit.

Drums: beat-up/well worn mix of 1960s-70s Ludwig and Rogers drums in blue sparkle.  bass: 20" or 24".  snare: 5x14" Acrosonic. toms: 12" + 13" mounted (offset), 14" + 16" floor (16" tubed for pitch-bending and amplified).  In minimal-space setting I'll usually just go with bass/snare/12/16 setup.

cymbals: old Zildjians & Paistes. 14" hihats, 16" + 18" crashes, 20" chinese (cracked, doubles as 2nd ride), 21" ride, 10" splash; 12" custom effect (formerly 14" bottom hihat) + 8" splash + 3 cup chimes (not mounted, often laid on amplified floor tom & bowed or struck w/mallet). 

heads: Evans (various)

hardware: various, incl. Pearl double pedal. 

percussion: vibes, tabla, tambourines, frame drums, bells, goat hooves, shakers, spring coils, etc.

electronics: contact mics + SM57s for amplification, Peavey 6-channel mixer, Blacet modular synthesizer and various effects pedals for sound-mangling
