Re: Drummers Corner

Did anyone see Tommy Lee's drum riser on "so your'e in a band" last night, hitting the skins is hard enough when they stay still, but to have them moving upside down whilst you are strapped into what looked like a fighter pilots seat must be mind blowing! big_smile  big_smile

Have Fun and laugh like it's your first time! You never know you might get to like it! big_smile

Yes! I watched it again on the BBC iPlayer. I have seen a clip on YouTube, but the sound and picture quality isn't great!

Re: Drummers Corner

Anyone got any good Drummer Jokes ?

Here are some....
Source: MusicRadar.com

The 23 best drummer jokes ever
Bu-dum-bump!
Joe Bosso, Mon 18 Aug 2008, 1:27 pm BST

As every musician knows, to have a great band you need a great drummer.

It's true. Try to imagine The Beatles without Ringo Starr. Or The Rolling Stones without Charlie Watts. The Police without Stewart Copeland. Metallica without Lars Ulrich. Rush without Neil Peart. Unthinkable, right?

Even so, drummer jokes abound. But we're going to let you in on a little secret: We drummers love the jokes. We trade them and e-mail them to one another. The more the merrier. And so, with that in mind, MusicRadar has compiled the 23 best drummer jokes of all time.

Why 23 you ask? What, you expect us to actually count to a normal number?

How do you tell if the stage is level?
The drummer is drooling from both sides of his mouth.

How can you tell a drummer's at the door?
The knocking speeds up.

What's the last thing a drummer says in a band?
"Hey, how about we try one of my songs?"

An Indian chief and a cavalry captain climb to the top of a tall hill and look out upon the entire Indian tribe. The captain says worriedly, "I don't like the sound of those drums." The chief says, "I know. It's not our regular drummer."

What do you call a drummer that breaks up with his girlfriend?
Homeless.

What do Ginger Baker and black coffee have in common?
They both suck without Cream.

How many drummers does it take to change a lightbulb?
Five: One to screw the bulb in, and four to talk about how much better
Neil Peart could've done it.

An amateur drummer died and went to heaven. He was waiting outside the pearly gates when he heard the most incredible fast and furious drumming coming from within. Immediately he recognized the playing and rushed to ask St. Peter if that was Buddy Rich playing drums inside the gates. St. Peter responded: "No, that's God. He just thinks he's Buddy Rich."

How do you get a drummer off of your porch?
Pay him 10 bucks for the pizza.

Why didn't the Little Drummer Boy get into heaven?
Because he woke up the baby, for Christ's sake!

What do you call a drummer with half a brain?
Gifted.

What does a drummer use for contraception?
His personality.

What do you say to a drummer in a three-piece suit?
"Will the defendant please rise?"

"Hey buddy, how late does the band play?"
"Oh, about half a beat behind the drummer."

Hey, did you hear about the drummer who finished high school?
Me neither.

And one i heard last week.
How do you know a drummer is at the door ?
He knocks three times...... then comes in late!

Re: Drummers Corner

While we're expressing platitudes, I'd like to lower the barrier to see level and say Lars Ulrich in my opinion is not highly laudable...  I didn't say laughable either, but he is NOT that talented in my opinion.  He fits Metallica for sure, but then again... neutral

Much Yawn For Calling It Rock,

Re: Drummers Corner

OK...

how about that one...

question: "Hey, you drummer, play somehow dynamic!"
drummer's reply: "What?... Dynamic?... Can't play louder!!!"

+ + +

The musicians and the drummer on stage, please !!!

+ + +

Why wouldn't it be good to make rehearsal breaks longer than 20 minutes...????
.

If they are longer, the drummer would need to be edjucated again.
