When I saw the courts, I immediately thought of the Radical 80s deck.  Sure enough, when I clicked on the preview I saw Ari's name.  I have to admit that I liked the Radical 80s deck and I like these too.  There is a cheesy factor that seems to appeal to me.  Plus Ari delivered on time, even ahead of schedule if I remember correctly, on the Radical 80s deck.

I was hoping for more customized courts.  Not really interested in this one.

Never occurred to me that a tambourine is part of rock & roll? (QoH)

I think it would be cool if there was metallic ink used on this deck. Like all over it. 8) I would pledge if he has metallic ink.
The index and pips feels a little too big, and the joker, (though i like "joint" jokers) doesn't have enough impact to me. Other than that, i think the deck is ok. Unless...Metallic Ink!!!   8)

Hey, the tambourine is nearly as important as the cowbell in rock music!  :))

The indices are a bit on the wide side, but the overall aesthetic is nice.  I would have gone a different direction with the back, something more directly tied with rock music - not every rocker decorates their stage or their promo art with skulls.  Something with a giant drum kit would have been cool!

I really dig the backs, but not the front so much. And... A drum set Don?
I like to call paper coatings a finish. It makes Don happy.

Why not?  Imagine a back like the Big Gun deck, but instead of a portable cannon, a big concert drum kit!
