Musician's Friend has decent prices(before shipping).. I'm partial to Gibraltar and the stuff of there's that I do have is over 20 years old and still looks and works like the day I bought it..
Just looked on eBay and found tons of cymbal stands(all types).. Could check locally on Craigslist too..

Post by: Jenks on September 17, 2009, 11:03:17 AM: I use an Ipod for break music through my PA. I don't use the headphone output, I use an adaptor that has an Ipod multipin connector on it ( like the USB adaptor that came with your Ipod) only it has left and right RCA out connectors, and a 12v input for charging. This adapt. was designed for use in car audio application but works well for adding an Ipod to any system with audio inputs. I don't know if you can listen thru the HP out while the multi pin connector is plugged in or not. I guess you would have to try it. However I'm sure you could monitor the Ipod from the HP out on a mixer board.

Regards,
Jenks

Here's what this guy said:

i use a 12 channel mixer with my ipod run into it as well as my drums then get the mix just right then run that into the mic jack on a laptop and use the webcam to do the video i do no after editing whatsoever like most people do so the video and sound are done at the exact same time i dont sync anything up

He records drum covers, but I just want to do it in case I want to play for anyone. So I can just erase the laptop/video cam and just have the speakers/ipod, but not exactly sure of the easiest/cheapest way...
