Quote:...i didnt know you drummed. you didnt mention that before. what kind of stuff you play?I've been drumming ever since I was nine years old, so that makes it almost twelve years by now, minus one year of abstinence when I was working and not at all motivated to keep it going. This was also the point at which I said goodbye to my drum teacher who I learned from for ten years. The fact is that even though ten years of learning sounds like a lot, I consider myself just as good as any five-year drummer, but not better. I had a lot of setbacks and hangover phases during these years and I really need to find my way back into serious drumming. This is why I want to join this band I'm applying for; they have a lot of stuff going on and it would be a good way to move up the ladder a bit.
What stuff I play? Well, I did play gothic rock when I was 15, but since this is not the type of music I listen to, I'd rather want to go into the straight rock/funk direction, and this band I mentioned does exactly that. Since 2005 brought me a bit closer to metal (which in turn restarted my desire to drum), I'd also like to play that.
