I was bored and feeling musically inclined so I decided to buy a drum set. Hardly ever played drums before in my life, but what the hell; they can't be that hard, right?
WRONG.
I now realise how uncoordinated I am and how much limb independency drummers need. And trying to get my new drums tuned was a pain in the ass to begin with!
But at least they're an intuitive instrument. I also play the trombone and when I first picked it up, I couldn't tell you slide positions or anything. I could name each of my drums before I even bought the set! (I'm thinking about naming my snare (the one I bang the most) Mary. Or not.)
I've gotta take pictures still but here's a poorly recorded sound sample of someone (me) trying to play these beasts. (Pardon the suck lol).
