Living Colour.  
I've always been fond of black drumsets. Plus, everyone knows that black is louder.
Peace.

Hmmm, I play a black drumkit and I've had three guitarists tell me that I'm the loudest drummer they ever played with - I never made the connection before!
Seriously, I'm a sucker for natural finishes. I once saw a bird's-eye maple set of Ludwigs that were my favorite object of GAS lust until Yamaha came out with their Oak Classics. Also, my first drum teacher had a beautiful set of cherry Yamahas that had the nicest kick drum I've ever heard.

I've always loved the Marine Pearl wraps from the 60's - however, I very much appreciate natural laquer finish (2 or the 3 accoustic kits I cuurently own are natural finish).

Back in my day, I used to hate the sparkles and pearl finishes, probably because everyone had them. They seem to have gone to the wayside through the years but now seem to be making a comeback and now I love em.
I still hate liver

I love liver but I am a true country boy. I'm thinking about covering my Gretsch Catalina Club with green sparkle from Barnard's drum wrap. I don't know why I bought two kits in white marine pearl.

I know this is another thread but yes, the catalina clubs are impressive for their price. I also have a Ludwig fab 4 kit but usually it stays set up in one spot. The gretsch kit goes out and gets moved around all the time. I firmly believe that you can make a $500 kit sound great with the right heads (SKII, Aquarian Resonator, Emperor tom heads and an Aquarian texture coated clear dot snare) and tuning. Those heads work wonderful for my Gretsch club kit.
