Sign in to disble this ad
My brother is a drummer, and my parents are asking me what they should buy him for Christmas. Any cool books or DVDs you can think of? Or something else?
Thanks! |

| | | A few years ago, I got my brother-in-law (an amateur drummer) a pair of drummer's gloves and a pair of Vic Firth sticks (he'd been using some generic brand, and was delighted with the Vic Firths).
That's the honest answer; expect a lot of responses like, "Get him a lobotomy..."  |

I bought my drummer a metronome once... guess how that turned out?
