    I'm sure there is. But as I'm sure you know, drummers aren't the brightest bunch so it usually takes them more than 7 minutes to reply a thread that was started just before midnight.

    I'm a drummer, though I'm having a hard time trying to fit in the time to practise recently. I've been playing for 2 years.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,048 ✭✭✭BobTheBeat


    ..Been playing for the past 9 years myself. Let me guess Feylya, a stinkin guitar player? What the difference between a guitarist and a large pizza? A large pizza can feed a family!Hah!

    Us drummers are a rare bunch. Solidarity in numbers! The scene in Ireland is non existant, save for the drummer expo in Dublin every other year.

    You never really stop learning the drums!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,026 ✭✭✭✭adox


    I used to play drums in a metal band called Kruger a long time ago.

    Speaking of drummers......

    How many drummers does it take to change a lightbulb?

    One, but you're gonna need around 10 lightbulbs before he realises not to hit them.

    what do you call a drummer who broke up with his girlfriend?

    Homeless!


    Why do guitarists always keep drumsticks on the dashboard of their car?
    So they can park in the handicapped spots.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 23,363 Mod ✭✭✭✭feylya


    What's the difference between a drummer and a drum machine?

    You only have to punch the information into the drum machine once.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 152 ✭✭Drum boy


    I do laugh at these but i don't see why drummers get this reputation!

    I can read drum notation and normal stuff and im not stupid in school or anything!

    I don't get it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 246 ✭✭edson


    how many drummers does it take to change a lightbulb?

    just one, they hold they lightbulb while the world revolves around them

    How do you confuse a drummer?
    Put a sheet of music in front of him.

    How do you know if a drummer is knocking at your door?
    The tempo varies.

    How do you know if a singer is at your door?
    They always come in early and and use the wrong key.

    loadsa the drummer jokes can be replaced by almost anything so theyre not really offensive.
    Except this one!
    What do you call those guys who hang around with musicians?
    Drummers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,326 ✭✭✭Zapp Brannigan


    or this one :p

    What does DRUM stand for?
    Doesnt Really Understand Music.

    Oh man i have so many drummer jokes. is it ok if i share em?


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 23,363 Mod ✭✭✭✭feylya


    Heard back stage at a gig "Will the musicans and drummer please take to the stage" :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,326 ✭✭✭Zapp Brannigan


    ok.

    These four guys walk into a bar. once theyre inside two of the guys sit on oneside of the bar. one of the guy goes "hey whats your IQ?" The other man answers "170". "no way! im 180. So what type of doctor are you?" and they both walk outta the bar.

    the 2 other guys at the otherside of the bar copy the two other men. "So, whats your IQ?". "40" replies the other man. "hah! mines 37. So, what sticks do you use?"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!
