Setting The Drums On Fire

Who doesn’t love a drum solo? It’s always the highlight of the show. Drums have got to be one
of the coolest instruments both to play, and listen to. But more importantly, the drums are the
heart of the band. The drummer is the one who sets the beat for the rest of the musicians to
follow.
It would seem that drums are easy to play. After all, anybody can pick up a pair of sticks and
start banging on them. But once you begin to take lessons and practice you’ll soon find that they
are one of the most difficult instruments to master. It takes a great deal of coordination to play
the drums well. Each arm and leg is doing something different at the same time and it’s not easy
to have all four limbs going at once, all the while keeping good time.
