Really?!

Drums are cool

I actually somewhat agree with the OP, there is a ton of negativity towards guitarists on this site, some jokingly, some direct, and definitely some passive-aggressive comments too.

I think you may be one of the first people to assume that his post was directed at guitarist-bashing. If you're correct, then I may actually be more inclined to agree.

The only reason I assume this is while many people here joke about firing the drummer, the only derogatory names I see people use are directed towards guitarists. And the OP mentioned using names:

As a drummer primarily, I play bass, guitar, & keyboards too. This continual nonsense of bashing....you know all the names you use!

 

[Stumbo]

Homeless again 'cause your gf fired you?

 

[Kukulkan61]

Are you one of these drummers also?

 

[JACink]

That was the OP's first post since 2015 and then he's gone.

Typical drummer.

Maybe he is just a slow typer!

 

[TheReceder]

Anyone else smell that? I think it's sensitivity.

 

[Ghook]

I'll be more than happy to discuss this if you repost as the bass player you

 

[Jscriv]

A drummer....talking about a bring a team player?!?!? Quick someone is tuning or talking about a riff, better play for no reason!!

 

[Dragonback13]

Is the OP typing with his sticks?

 

[wmhill]

someone call (in)security, a drummer got loose in here.....

 

[FDR Jones]

OP... sir, this is an Arby's.

 

[Nevada Pete]

sorry , but passion doesn't pay the bills nearly as well as true talent .. !

fyi ... i'll joke about whatever i see fit to do so

This is a joke? Oh.

Wait! I don't get it.

Why can't we fire the drummer?

As a drummer primarily, I play bass, guitar, & keyboards too. This continual nonsense of bashing....you know all the names you use! It’s barely humorous. Grow the f up and think about what it takes to be a better player. And a team player. Bands are a dime a dozen. Either you’re happy with your situation or walk away. Communication is the key! I’ve played with some incredibly talented musicians and some that had minimal experience. You can’t go wrong with either - assuming the passion ia there!

While I agree, one does not have to be a jerk to be a musician, talent does have a tendency to float to it’s own level, and that can be collective talent or individual talent.

 

[Josh Kneisel]

Who let the drummers in here?

 

[73jbass]

A drummer that communicates? Since when?

 

[JohnnyBottom]

It does take a lot of time to get proficient at drums...

Whaddoyou call someone who hangs out with musicians?

Ever notice how it’s never the instrument the guy who’s telling the joke plays? Weird that.
