2 trombones in separate cases, a tenor and a bass. Or my tuba. Definitely the flute.

Well I will qualify this and say I have a coupe. However, this past weekend I had a decent amount of music gear in the trunk. The list is as follows:

Behringer VMX100 2-Channel Mixer
Technics SL1200 Turntable (x2) - in their respective cases
Dell XPS M1330
Miscellaneous cables/ Serrato Scratch Live/ extra needles - in a bag


That was in their for a good part of the night. However, beforehand I had to drop a couple other instruments off at a friends house... So in addition to that there was also:

Fender FM-52E Mandolin - trunk
Yamaha FGX730A Acoustic Guitar - front seat
Yamaha CPX700-12 String Acoustic - front seat
Misc guitar acc. (i.e. strings, picks, tuners, string winders, tools, etc)

I got to my buddy's house and he was confused how everything fit.

Oh well, I guess it helps that I work for a shipping company that worries about getting the most goods into the least amount of space. CBM efficiency is everything. I'm a nerd.

Well unfortunately I sold all my gear a few years back but my keyboards and rack took up half our spare bedroom so I doubt much any of it would have fit in the Crossfire. I did have a few Korg Trinity, Wavestation EX, Kurzweil PC88 and a Roland JD800 and a nice EmulatorIII sampler.
Sounds to me like we need to start a forum band here! We actually did that on another forum I was on. Everyone submitted a couple of songs and one of the guys put everything on a CD.

Actually I use my wife’s 2001 Beatle as my "gig bag" car (clown car with all my gear in it)
It’s so small I can usually park in front of the bars we gig at in the French Quarter without problems.
My gear list:
Mapex Saturn Kit
22 x 20 Bass Drum Front passenger seat
10 x 8 Tom Front passenger floor
Everything else fits in the back!
12 x 9 Tom
13 x 10 Tom
14 x 12 Floor tom
16 x 14 Floor tom
18 x 16 Floor tom
14 x 5.5 Snare Drum
In cases plus hardware!

Nice kit! Mapex Saturn series is highly underrated, IMO. As good as DW kits costing twice as much.

Yeah, I have a decent set up, but I leave my Roland SP-555 and M-Audio keyboard at home, no need to take it DJing.
