The KickBlock is a lightweight, shock-absorbing bass drum anchor that prevents your kick drum and pedals from sliding during play. Using custom Ultra-Grip hook-and-loop fasteners, it grips directly onto your Velcro-compatible drum rug to create a solid wall in front of your kit. The anchor is made of dense, high-performance foam and weighs roughly 6 ounces, making it highly portable for gigs and studio sessions. It works with both acoustic and electronic drum kits, and is designed to protect your drum hoops from scratching or denting.

Standards

The commitments that define how The Backline Company approaches every production.

TBC-STD-007Performance Support Standard™

Every artist deserves to perform with complete confidence, knowing that the equipment supporting them will do exactly what it's supposed to do. The purpose of The Backline Company Performance Support Standard™ is to ensure our responsibility continues throughout the performance - not just until the equipment is set up.

TBC-STD-004Dispatch Standard™

A successful dispatch is measured long before the truck reaches the venue. The purpose of The Backline Company Dispatch Standard™ is to ensure every production leaves our warehouse organised, protected and prepared to support an efficient load-in, productive rehearsals and a confident performance.

TBC-STD-009Equipment Readiness Standard™

Professional equipment isn't considered ready because it's available. It's ready because every aspect of its preparation has been completed before it reaches an artist. The purpose of The Backline Company Equipment Readiness Standard™ is to ensure every piece of backline we deliver inspires confidence from the first rehearsal to the final performance.

TBC-STD-002Equipment Allocation Standard™

Every artist deserves equipment that has been selected for their production - not simply assigned because it is available. The purpose of The Backline Company Equipment Allocation Standard™ is to ensure that every piece of backline contributes to the success of the production it supports.

TBC-STD-003Warehouse Preparation Standard™

A successful production should be built in the warehouse - not at the venue. The purpose of The Backline Company Warehouse Preparation Standard™ is to ensure that every production leaves our warehouse complete, verified and ready for rehearsals, allowing artists and production teams to focus on the performance rather than the equipment.

TBC-STD-006Rehearsal Standard™

Every rehearsal should be spent refining the performance - not resolving preventable production issues. The purpose of The Backline Company Rehearsal Standard™ is to ensure artists, musicians and technical teams can use rehearsal time exactly as intended: to prepare for the performance.

TBC-STD-001Rider Review Standard™

Every successful production begins with a clear understanding of what the artist and production team expect. Our Rider Review Standard exists to ensure that every production starts with informed decisions rather than assumptions.

TBC-STD-005Load-in Standard™

A professional load-in should never feel rushed, even when time is limited. The purpose of The Backline Company Load-in Standard™ is to ensure every stage is prepared methodically, efficiently and safely, allowing artists, technicians and production teams to begin rehearsals with confidence.
