fake news, percussionists are too busy fucking off in the back of the band room to notice the glass of water
Someone's just jealous they've got only one instrument and they have learn how to read music.
tf do you mean the little dots mean more than crackle snap and big boom? >:(
Can't hear you over the sound of doing nothing for 2 minutes playing one note on the crash cymbals and then not playing a single other note for the rest of the song.
percussionists count measures to fall asleep instead of sheep
I have literally caught my partner playing a rhythm in her sleep, perfectly in time. Percussionists are wild and untamed, but they’re also always there for the show, they’d never miss it. And they’ll keep everyone else in time, but no one wants to admit the power they wield. Eldritch beings.
i used to follow blair tindall, i know the steez
Nah, a percussionist would be holding the glass with two fingers, striking it with a triangle mallet, and then swishing it around in circles for vibrato.
