====Toms==== [[File:Keith Moon 4 - The Who - 1975.jpg|thumb|250px|[[Keith Moon]] of [[The Who]] with a mixture of [[concert tom]]s and conventional toms, 1975]] {{main|Tom-tom drum}} Tom-tom drums, or toms for short, are drums without snares and played with sticks (or whatever tools the music style requires) and are the most numerous drums in most kits. They provide the bulk of most drum fills and solos. They include: * Traditional double-headed [[Tom drum|rack toms]] of varying diameters and depths * [[Floor tom]]s (generally the widest and largest toms, which also makes them the lowest-pitched toms) * Single-headed [[concert tom]]s * [[Rototoms]] The smallest and largest drums without snares ([[octobans]] and [[gong drum]]s, respectively) are sometimes considered toms. The naming of [[#Common configurations|common configurations]] (four-piece, five-piece, etc.) is largely a reflection of the number of toms, as conventionally only the drums are counted, and these configurations all contain one snare and one or more bass drums, (though not regularly any standardized use of two bass/kick drums) the balance usually being made up by toms.
