10 years after I first asked my parents for drum lessons I have the money and inclination to do it myself.
I’m really enjoying taking lessons, learning new techniques and understanding the theory behind the drums, I’ve been playing for about 3 months, and I finally have an electric kit at home too.
Anyone wanting to learn, what’s stopping you? Just go out and make a start, if you do a little bit every day then you’ll be making serious progress in no time.

This summer
23 months ago
I came into possession of some drum sticks and what I firmly believe is a practice head for a snare drum. Then I hit things with them all the time and pissed off my co-workers.

It seems like whenever I’m drumming….or air-drumming (I do this regularly =P) it’s very hard to do like 5 things at once. I get in the “position” of drumming, where you cross your arms so the right hand is hitting the hi-hats and the left hand is hitting the snare, and right leg kick drum left leg hi-hat pedal. For songs where there is a constant hi-hat pattern, when there is kick drums I tend to speed up the hi-hats and hit the kick drum like 10 times…when it really should be hit rhythmically in patterns of 1—-1-1 or whatever.
How is it that drummers keep the rhythm?

It’s fun and I’m in a band and have been in a few. I have a big task of trying to play super-fast blast beats and working on the double bass.

To be honest, I’m not trying really hard on this one. I rarely sit by the drums at school, I’m more focused on the piano right now.
Perhaps in a certain future?
