Drums

I think that drums are awesome! I like to play them for fun and think playing them is one of my hobbies that i enjoy the most. Everytime I play them I feel like I am in a whole different world. They make me relax and help me relieve a lot of stress. Not only do I like to follow songs that rock but also make my own like drum cover for songs that have been made already. I like to make rhythms that kind of matchthe song that I am listening to but its not the same one as in the actual song. Drums are good to play cause you do not have to be right all the time while playing them. Although it is sometimes hard to tune them when there is a drumhead in need of replacement, with the proper equiptment anything can be tuned. I recently bought a device which really helps with the tuning of a drum head by putting the same tension of the screws on the drum. It only was about twenty five dollars but it was definitly worth buying it. My drumset is a basic drumset but it is more than enough for me. I have not touched my drums in a while but that is because of all of the homework and time I have spent at school. I really hope it is worth it because drums are really important part of my life and I do not want to lose part of my touch in them.

  1. Deep for the drums, that's good that your drums are a part of your life. I tend to find drums, to be banging and Loud, but if it's soft drums, i can understand. For me it has to be a flute or Violin. All smooth instruments helps me stress less and I also listen to them in musics too. :)

  2. That's awesome you play drums. I think its extremely important for people to have hobbies and to continue to discover new ones. I have a few friends who also play drums. One of my favorite things to do, is go to their band practices. Its a free concert for me. I often leave speechless because I'm just appalled at the natural talent people are blessed with. I often check out coffee shops on open mic nights, by far my favorite is the Weather Center. One guy will be up there playing the drums and eventually others from the audience will join in on a keyboard, guitar, or vocals. Its such a great feeling being able to see how music can just unite people and in turn the create something soothing for the soul.
