drums!

yesterday morning a drummer come in  to do an assembly at school. he played we will rock you and i think he was quite good but i'm not sure about what makes a good drummer exactly. i would really love to learn how to play the drums. it's such a cool instrument, the perfect one to release your anger on because it's so loud and you need to be really focused; i think it would be gratifying and therapeutic. if i were ever in a band my ideal spot would be sitting in the back on the drum kit where i can be sort of hidden and comfortable.
i used to watch a lot of disney channel and their original movies were my favourite. i remember in camp rock 2 nick jonas (he's such a babe) did a little drum solo and i love how he gets so intense when he drums. also in lemonade mouth, blake michael who plays charlie delgado was the drummer and i remember how amazing he looked with his luscious brown hair flying about haha. he carried two drumsticks basically everywhere and at one point he was really angry after playing  and managed to break his fingers, oops.

the video above is of dave grohl drumming at a nirvana concert, it was filmed so well. there is also this video of lesser quality where his drumming is more passionate and i like it. it looks kind of effortless and natural to him in a way. i think dave grohl was cute back then hehe.

you don't seem to get many female drummers but there's meg white. this video is a performance of little cream soda by the white stripes. i like her because she looked so passive and cool when she drummed, that's the only way i can describe it haha.

could i have even done this post without mentioning arctic monkeys? r u mine is my alarm tone. i love the song so much but in the morning it's such a pain ! anyway, i can't get over the perfection of this video and the air drumming alex turner (another babe) and matt helders do in the beginning omg.

i don't understand why everyone seems to hate coldplay right now, they're pretty cool to me. my favourite part of their video for every teardrop is a waterfall is the drum solo by will champion at the end.

i don't really know where this post has gone or how to end it, but this is wandering star by polica which has a great drum beat and i really like the band/song...
