Beginner's Troubles Hi All,
I haven't played drums that long (two years), and am already feeling like quitting. I sit behind the kit and think I suck. I look at people on youtube who have played less than me or are considerably younger than me, and they seem to be the bees knees. What I'm trying to ask, is there any advice for a kid who wants to be that awesome drummer some day? I really enjoy playing the drums, but not when I know I suck and the whole neighborhood can hear. Did anyone else ever feel like this? Please help me out here. Does anyone have any practice tips that may have been a little unorthodox, but worked for them? I try to learn rudiments, but my hands don't cooperate and I just give up. Drums are a love/hate relationship for me now that I really want to become simply a loving relationship. Sorry to sound like a crybaby, the drums are getting to me. |
