How do you attract a drummer?

What's the state of your demos like? I've found that having at least a sets worth of songs (so for an originals band half an hour) demo'ed up in reasonable quality really helps.

And I've just met him again.

There is that moment when the drummer auditioning for you hits the snare drum for the first time and you realise he doesn't know how to tune the £800 DW snare drum he has brought and your heart sinks when you realise you have to spend 3 hours playing with a guy who has a £4k drum kit and no idea what to do with it.

Had one of those yesterday...
