#Drummers
Good! A few hundred people turned out on my small island. There were bucket drummers and inflatable costumes

Never make your OC drummers a Neil Peart acolyte.

I do admit to having napped through a not-insignificant portion of 6th grade history, but if the lessons on WW2 had looked like this, I’m pretty sure I’d remember.

Trump wants his vice presidents to be like Spinal Tap drummers.

@governor.ca.gov you missed the part where Hegseth was throwing an axe and nearly hit one of the drummers.

The other drummers keep playing? This isn't the Civil War and you don't need to keep troops going. Help your buddy! Geezus Kriste, what is wrong with people these days?

There’s a similarity between Trump VPs and Spinal Tap drummers

Extra Bonus poem for day 19 of "31 Days of Spooky/Dark/Horror Poetry": my attempt at a villanelle, "A Hellish Fray". Wrote this at the behest of a certain small-press editor/publisher, but then she decided the work wasn't for her. It ended up in my now out-of-print collection.

I agree! And I thank the lone drummers and other instrumentalists along the route. Special shout out to the lady blowing the conch! And very special thank you to the volunteers in blue, red, yellow vests and the woman handing out the "this is fascism" signs and the organizers!

#OneAlbumADay; Years before Yacht Rock, Patrick Simmons (b. October 19, 1948, Aberdeen, WA) wrote & sang some of my fave Doobie Bros. balancing Tom Johnston's harder-edge rock tunes, and this was a collection of studio recordings they *mailed* to Warner Bros. to nab themselves a deal.

Hell, I think like at least half the drummers at my march were PSL guys!

This is one thing that’s amazing about the show - drummers coming together to have fun and big each other up. Love it!!

Drummers do not get enough love. In my experience, too many people play guitar and there aren’t enough bands to go around. All the drummers play in 2-3 bands because of it.

The anti-ICE drummers and singers join up with the trans-rights inflatables to make music.

Here's a live clip of Cult of Luna that I love. So much beauty and ugliness (complimentary) in one song.

Note that there are two drummers; Hedlund is the one with darker skin because he's from Sri Lanka (presumably adopted considering the extremely Swedish name, but I dunno)
Cult Of Luna - Dark City, Dead Man Live in London

It was more of a street festival: costumes, drummers, people greeting neighbors & co-workers, honking horns, waving flags.

The thing that causes me to struggle with quite a bit of modern rock music is the lumpen drumming & monotonous rhythm. Not all modern rock music of course, but there’s a fair bit of it about.

Bring back the busy drummers & beyond basic bass players.

I'm this 🤏🏾 close to procrastinating today's yoga practice for a 36 minute long video in which some drummers explain how Kendrick Lamar raps like a drummer...

And listen, I've gotten quite good at redirecting my focus and my drive when I wanna procrastinate BUT THIS SOUNDS TOO COMPELLING TO FIGHT IT

First, we’re greeted by Drummers who drum as they come.
And next come the Strummers who strum as they come.
And the Drummers who drum and the Strummers who strum
Are followed by Zummers who come as the zum.
