Drummer spends a small fortune and a load of time trying (not very successfully) to learn to play the guitar..... one day he's out with the rest of the band and decides to impress them with his hard-won knowledge of his new instrument so he walks up to the counter of the shop and says
"I'd like a set of .009 Piccato flat-wound strings please"
The guy behind the counter gives him a long look and says
"You're a drummer aren't you?"
"Yes.... how did you know?"
"This is a fish and chip shop"
[gets coat]

A singer...
The singer turns up (fashionably) late for rehearsal (as usual) ... discovers the drummer desperately trying to pull apart the bassist and the guitarist who seem to be having a massive scrap.... he joins in trying to help the drummer and shouts
"Why are they scrapping?"
The drummer responds
"The guitarist detuned one of the strings on his bass"
"So what?"
"He won't tell him which one!"
chrisc
nope not heard either of them love em
Well Done
Well done you.
Well Done.
A drummer is peed off with 'the drummer jokes', so, one day, when out with the rest of the band, he thinks, "I'll show them that I can play more than the drums" and promptly walks into the nearest shop, up to the counter, and asks the assistant, " How much for the red saxaphone?"
"You're a drummer, ain't you?" says the assistant.
"yes, but how did you know?" says the drummer, some-what surprised
"two things let me know you are a drummer", the assisstant responded;
"1, this is a library",
"2, we can't sell the fire extinguisher" ;)
BTW, well done on passing the exam!!
Great to hear about a drummer that has been taught. We had a music teacher who had taken all the proper exams and he really spoilt us with his strict tempo and understanding of the music we were playing. Unfortunately he moved away and we got a nice bloke called Bill who had a set of drums. (self taught). Halfway through the first number and the bass player lent over the drummer and said 'let us know when you finish building that effing shed' We knew we were in trouble when I indicated waltz time and he asked how does that go.
We could form a band with the a4a lot now we have a real drummer. The 'lovin spoonfull' has been used as a group name but I think 'The stinkin prongfull' is still free. ;)
ace idea Ace, actually i only wanted to learn to play if i learnt properly the theory and how to read drum score etc, in my opinion if im told to do something i want to know why im doing it
Nice on Deb, did I tell you I come from a musical family, yes thats right even the sowing machine's a Singer. :P ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Where do all the jokes come from, you should be on TV.
I was on the tele once.
The OH said, get off that you drunken bum, you'll break it. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
