Here's my band 'The R.u.B.' performing last night. I'm playing my '84 Peavey Fury (with new SIT Powerwound strings...LOVE these strings!)

I prefer to be pretty close, and, on the high hat side so I can see and hear what he's doing a little better.
ymmv, obviously, and that's just my personal pref!!!! | I did too, but then I worked with a great drummer whose favorite (and loudest) crash cymbal was just above his hi-hat. Painful, and my tinnitus isn't getting any better with age... and yes, I use plugs. Thought it was easier to watch him when he was on my 'neck' side also.

ymmv, obviously, and that's just my personal pref!!!! | I sing a lot with my current band and at church, so I almost always find myself way out front of the drummer. On the songs where I do not sing, I do try to wander back to his hi-hat side. But I've learned to live and die to the cadence of the kick drum.
