It seems in the musical community that drummers are often referred to as non musicians. Interested to see if you call yourself a drummer or call yourself a musician. What do you put on your passport?

If you're a decent drummer (or guitarist, Picolo player, etc.) who plays musically (at the correct volume and feel appropriate to the music you're playing for then your a musician too). I classify myself as a musician (but drums isn't my first instrument). Even though I'm relatively new to drums I try my best to play to the music, and blend volume wise with the other musicians I'm playing with. I think that is the difference between someone who just plays drums, and a drummer who's a musician.
