Drummers When Guitarists are Tuning: 

W

Was like 70 years and 5 months lol. He went forward 5 months. Then forward 10 years. Then 60 years. He started when they were just jammin in the house. Then he did it for 70 more years and 5 months lol

Actually it took 70 lol

A drummers moto: If I sit, I hit!

I only get it 2 minutes in.

damn facts

especially when your bandmates are just like "play that basic simple 4/4 beat or some variation the entire song" and you just have to resist going 7/9 and throwing in a fill every few measures.

@@quinnmarchese6313 I’ve played with drummers who only know that one beat, and drummers who constantly try to “spice it up” but ruin the song as a result. Hahaha there’s no middle ground but I’d rather jam with a Meg white, phill Rudd type drummer than someone who wants to “shred” all the time.

@@codycoyote7046 i get it out during solo practice and improv jamming, in a professional sense, ill play whatever services the song the best, im not quite good enough for a jazz act where i could actually do that lol

@@quinnmarchese6313 respect

Hahahaha 😂

As a fellow drummer I am very casually agreeing with this

Yes

Same here.

As a guitarist....why😢

The bassist' boyfriend needed him at home.

@@christophershepherd1983 true, I needed to try the buttplug on him.

I play keyboard and guitar so im the awkward victim😂

goofy? being ready to go is goofy?

@@notsop1 do you compose your own music?

Band practices are 60 years long

Lol yeah happens quite a bit. I really dont mind drums but other instruments can throw off the tuner, especially if they are really LOUD.

LOL.

@@mrpopcorn25 And getting longer!!

Same bro

Also goes for piano, especially if you already play it. I won’t play at home but will gladly play anywhere else

I am a rhythm guy. I just started drums and I AM LOVING IT! Man drums can be really exhausting though.

when i used to do giutar lessons at a music store, right outside the studios n stuch where i did the lessons, there was the percussion section of the store, and whenever my mom was waiting for me in the last 5 minutes of the lessons she would play the drums, specially the bongos lol

@@SoloSlater i had a piano in my house growing up and literally all my friends would noodle on it for a few minutes every time they came over

@@randybrown8872 it gets easier with time lol, i remember just starting and playing for my high school band and it was hard to play more than three or four songs and keep the energy, now i could play all day if i didn't have adult responsibilities.

I've had band mates ask me if I'm ok or on something or do I need to be on something just because I sat behind my kit and patiently waited for the rest of the band to tune and level check mics. The guitarist in that band just stared and started to reluctantly tuned as if I was about to start playing . Believe me , that's screws with a guitarist just as much as playing while they tune.

What is a tuner pedal?

@@oneultro6457A tuner pedal is a specific type of guitar pedal designed for the sole purpose of tuning and is, like all guitar pedals, connected between the instrument and the amp via its cable. Using a tuner pedal means that only your instrument will be picked up by the tuner, even if other instruments are being played in the room. Some are also extremely accurate, with the Peterson Strobe tuner pedals being accurate to within 0.1 cent. A number of people alternatively use a clip on tuner, which clamps to the headstock of the instrument, picking up the frequency of notes through the vibrations of your instrument. They are cheaper and more portable than a pedal but may pick up other instruments in a loud venue. The best clip on tuners will be accurate to +/- 1 cent (which is plenty accurate for most cases).

"it"

they're

WHAT

@@kindauncool 👍

Also, lots of folk do one string with a tuner then tune the other strings off that one; probably a relic from when tuning forks were the norm, and because cheap headstock tuners seem to suck at certain notes, like low B. Either way when your drummer wants to be funny just start tuning with the amp turned to 11, that'll learn 'em.

I play the drums. Can confirm, fully worth it.

Buy a tuner. Inflicting your dying cat noises on us is out of date.

This video cuts me in half
