Drumming audition

[Airspeed]

This was our Grandson's audition for advanced music learning:

Sounds good to me Mike. I could never get both hands and feet doing all that and stay in rhythm.

Nice! He even got a nod of approval from my wife who is a former drummer and played in a Scottish pipe band when she was in High School. She played drums and her next older sister played the pipes (yes, she was a cat strangler!)

Mike, when in the RAF one airman had his own drum kit and played in a group. He let me have a go and boy, having to use all hands and feet in what appeared to be uncoordinated control I just could not do successfully. When I used to fly all control inputs were coordinated but when it came to drumming he decided that it was best if I just looked on!!.

BTW. very good drumming skills!

Nigel.

[Paul K]

Rather excellent drumming!

[Airspeed]

Thanks all,
Official acceptance/rejection in a couple of weeks I think.

[TSR2]

Very impressive Mike, I've no coordination for it, but very cool.

[Airspeed]

He wasn't accepted.

[Tako_Kichi]

Sorry to hear that Mike. Hope he keeps playing after this minor setback. I never took music in school or college but still got to play in four bands!

[Paul K]

What a shame. Still, he's a damned good drummer, so there could be quite a future for him.
