Members Flatspotter Posted February 17, 2012 Members Share Posted February 17, 2012 What's the difference between a drum machine and a real drummer? You only have to punch instructions into a drum machine once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soundcreation Posted February 18, 2012 Members Share Posted February 18, 2012 How many drummers does it take to screw in a light bulb?? Six. One to hold the light bulb,four to turn the ladder and one to chant lefty lucy righty tighty. How many guitarists does it take. One....he holds the bulb while he waits for the world to revolve around him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's funny because it's not typed out correctly, so when reading it- it sounds bad. It's like a guy who just shat himself making fun of a guy who pissed his pants.

ARE!!!... drummers!... lousy comedians TIMing" myself, but I'm an exceptionally bad drummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they're too busy {censored}ing the lead guitarists wife. yeah- that's a good joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members tweak'd Posted February 18, 2012 Members Share Posted February 18, 2012 Some funny stuff in this thread. As a guitarist (though a drummer during my school years) my take is that NO rock band will be good unless the drummer (along with the bass player) can lay down a tight, driving groove. Btw...the best guitarist I have ever heard one-on-one, was actually the drummer in his current band. Blindfolded, you just might bet your life that Jimi and Stevie Ray were being channeled by Vai and blended all together. A large music shop, full of customers, came to a halt and everyone headed in his direction when he plugged in and started to play. Never actually heard him play drums, but based on his guitar-playing skills, I would bet he killed on the drums, as well. I was told at the time that the guitarist in his band was much better than he. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But ultimately a band is only as great as it's weakest link. Without great guitarists weaving interesting melodies and singers entertaining, a great rhythm section doesn't mean much more than just that.

I've heard bands where a good drummer made up for a bad guitarist, but a bad drummer will ruin the entire band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was more referring to "bigger" bands where everyone is competent but maybe not the greatest player. Like for example Meg White is NOT a great drummer by anyone's stretch of the imagination but I LIKE what she does, and Jack more than makes up for her weaknesses by his own creativity and his ability to lock into her lack of time. Fact is the white stripes totally groove and groove well. In that case the guitarist does "carry" the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
