Drummers...

[Vikunt]

In the whole time ive been playing an instrument ive always had trouble finding a drummer who wasnt A:late to every rehearsal, B:So loud you couldt hear anyone else when they finally did start playing or C:a serious drug addict/alco. After discussing this with a few people i was told that these are common traits of many drummers and to just live with it or buy a drum machine. i was also told about the huge list of jokes aimed at our stick waving friends. the couple i can remember are

Q:what do you call someone that hangs out with musicians?
A:a Drummer

Q:How do bands get to park in disabled parking?

A:they leave there drumsticks on the dashboard

Q:whats the difference between a drummer and a drum machine?
A: You only have to punch the information into a drum machine once

If anyone has any other drummer jokes/stories they want to share id be pretty interested in hearing them

Hey Vik,

In defense of drummers, may I just say, "they have no volumn control"!! That's why ALL sound level/checks begins with the foundation of the drum level.

Let it rip!!!

....but they do have control over their volume don't they ? Why do they never play the soundcheck how they intend to play the set ?

I got lucky, we have a great drummer. Our past drummer was a mess. He was 17 years old carried all this high school drama, played loud as sh#$, and he wouldn't shut the h#ll up about his dumb car.

My personal favorite one
