Hey, Ed.
When I first brought my E-Kit to the stage, the only complaint I got 
from my bandmates was appearance; they didn't look like drums! No 
complaints about the sound. (I had been triggering my acoustics for 
several years.) I found a large plastic planter tray, mounted this in 
front of my kick pad(a la bass drum) and put the band logo on it. 
Filling this void made a huge improvement to the look.And it made me 
feel less exposed.
Once, a guy got up to sing a few songs with us. Afterwards, we were 
talking, and someone mentioned my kit. This singer looked back up at 
the stage and said he didn't even realize they were electronic. "And 
I'm an Acoustic Drum Purist," he said!
