What's the first thing a drummer says after moving to LA? "Would you like fries with that?"

Ow, this really hurts man.

I'm a Drummer. Not a Rock band type of Drummer. Sure I've played Drum set, but I played other things too. I was in Drumline for 3 years, and in band for 7 years.

Have you ever tried playing four Mallet marimba? [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxajOkxdKXs] How about playing in a Drumline. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T57Xg59wem4] A real one, not like that really lame movie with Nick Cannon.

The Percussion section takes just as much skill as any of the winds or brass. And we're usually the only section that can do anything right, every, single, time.

dont bother I've allready tried lol

A Drummers Audition

A drummer sits behind the drumset and the band leader says, "Can you play a samba pattern with your bass drum?"

The drummer obliges with a quick "boom b boom" samba pattern.

The band leader then asks, "Can you add a Mozambique cowbell pattern along with that with your right hand?"

The drummer thinks to himself, "I can do that, no problem" and obliges, giving it his
best Steve Gadd possible. He is then told, "Now add a 2/3 clave with your
left foot on the hi hat."

The drummer's struggling a bit with this one but finally works it out and stiffins his back, all proud of himself.

Next he hears, "Now add a cascara pattern on the snare with your left
hand." Years of studying Gary Chester books and listening to world music finally
come to fruition and the relieved drummer finds he can play the whole pattern
with no problem.

Pleased with himself, he asks the band leader "So, do I get the job?

"No " says the bandleader "that's why we fired the last guy!"
