Hit me with your rhythm stick

As Ian Dury once sang.

What is the drumming group? Just people getting together to play drums? I had no idea such things existed.

This site looks like it has some hints and tips for you.

I’m sure you won’t have any problems hitting things with sticks :-)

Monday morning

I think they may have been on a bus one Monday morning when I was going to work. Not really what you want to hear after a hard weekend; there was enough pounding going on in my head.

come to an American college

particularly a small artsy one with a good proportion of vegans, and you will become very well acquainted with drumming groups. At all hours.
