playing drums is unique, since they are so insane and different from any other instrument. people love it and they are probably the loudest instrument you can get! any one share my opinions?

There is a drummers thread in the Writer's and Artist's Hangout...

I don't think they are the loudest, because in a band its usually a back-ground beat, and guitar takes the lead

But yes, I do play drums, and I love it...What set do you have?
I have a red Pearl Export ET with black Hardware...

i got a regal blue mapex 5 piece kit. came with paiste hi-hat,ride ,crash, and then my bro bought a cowbell and some sabian cymbals: crash, splash, china.

drums rrruuulleeeee!!!!!!!!!

so do guitar.

thanks for the thread

I have Zildjian (forgot spelling, too lazy to look at cymbals) cymbals, a ride, a crahs, hi-hats, a crash-ride, and a china....yes, mine is a standard 5-piece, not those fusion sets. I dont like floating toms...
I have a tambourine, mallets, brushes, and bell chimes...

always wanted a set of chimes.
they any good?

yes, they are sweet

I mostly stick to guitar but whenever I go to the local music shop Zumix I mess around a bit. But yeah, drums are awesome. Down with the sickness.

yeah guitar is great, i also play. i play it more often to shut up the neighbours, although they never really complain. hopefully I will get ibanez RG350DX someday.

Well, you are both wrong...the loudest instrument in a band is the human vocal....the vocals are always louder then anything else in the band....if not then their mix isn't correct. Other then that if you play instrument to instrument....u will then find that the 6 string bass guitar is and always will be the loudest with proper amp.

I was a drummer for 3 years in my school band.

Does snare drummer count?

a drummer is a drummer!

Thats what I do..but in a pipe band. Im learning drum set though, I love it so far.

yeah, snare counts. I was mainly a Snare Drummer.

Cool . I'm not actually a drummer, but I envy them. I think its cool to drum, keep time, and show off your skills.

Loooool
