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.
(Source: Played a song that instructed me to fire a cannon. We had to substitute it with a thundersheet and a bass drum mallet)
Ew, trumpet gravy.
Ok, can someone explain the violist cup?
No processing happening behind the eyes :P
Haha ok, that’s what I suspected but wasn’t sure.
Huh, bassoon reeds look pretty similar to bagpipe chanter reeds! Cup would prolly be half full of beer or whiskey though tbh.
There is one more way to get sound out of some glasses other than percussion.
I like your meme op. I have no notes.
And for Germans there clearly is not enough alcohol in the glass.
