I just got my first drum set! I'm so excited, I bought it through Ebay, I've always wanted to play the drums, but I never had the courage too actually buy one. Til when I became a big fan of coldplay! Before coldplay, the last time I was a BIG FAN of someone, I was 12 and screaming on a Backstreet Boy's concert
hahahah

anyways, any drumers here? Any tips for a drumer-wannabe?

whoa! do you have a pic. of it? I'm a drummer :D Its really fun! My uncle just got a 7 pc drum set, its crazy, you can actually play some simple piano songs on all of the toms. He also has a boom stand, but it has a really crappy messed up crash cymbal, when you hit it, it feels like your ears are going to bleed :stunned: . I want to get one of those electric ones, then you can put on headphones and play without your sister getting mad at you cuz she's watching tv :/ .

heheh, i knwo, there was no chance i could have gotten a non-eletric drum set! my mom would kill me
but the thing is, that i dont have enough room for one of those bigs nice ones, the one I got, its a table top, its like a big, thick metal/plastic thing, that has some weird circles, that when u hit them, they make noise! huaeeaea fun, right :wink3: ? huaeuaueuehu :lol: j/k

i'll open it after chrismas, i'll take a pic a show u :D
