You always see stories about some little kid that's a prodigy with a violin. Or maybe the piano. But what about the drums?

This kid is pretty cool. He must be under 10. Wish I could play the drums like that.

Holy crap!

His Dad needs to get him a double bass pedal so he can start to play real music and not that back-beat crap.

That's why he's gonna kill us. So we got to beat it. Yeah. Before he let's loose the marmosets on us."

Kids who play the drums aren't prodigies; they're noise pollution.

(Yeah, my little sister played the drums while I was growing up.)

What do you call a bloke who hangs around with musicians? A drummer. Lars.

Good call.

How about this one?
My favorite part is the cymbal bit right around 6:30

What does it mean when a drummer drools from both sides of his mouth? The stage is level.

"'Jelly Hat' sounds silly," I told Prince. "How about something poetic, like 'Raspberry Beret.'"
