Re: At what age did u start?
I'm one of the lucky ones. My parents surprised me with drums for Christmas when I was 9. I didn't even ask for them or really know I wanted them. But my dad noticed that I drummed on the back of the car seat everytime I was in the car, so he figured I had the drumming bug.
Man was he right! I am forever grateful for that kickass support. And my mom drove me to lessons for years. And they let me practice too. We always had big enough houses (5 kids -- 5 rooms) so I could play without disturbing them too much. I just had to pad the drums a bit and put tape on the cymbals. My favourite time was when we lived on a farm property, so I could play outside in the summer with wide open drums and no muffling. |
