There's a tiny piece of me that wonders if I was meant to play music. I think drums would've been my instrument. I love the beat and the groove that good percussion can add to a song.
I just came across a YouTube channel that I'm not in love with. It's called 'Drumeo.' There's a lot of drum instructions and other drumming related videos. But my favorite aspect is a series of videos they make when big time drummers come into the studio to learn how to play a song they've never heard. I watched one with the drummer from Megadeath learning a song by Blink-182, and another with Chad Smith from the Red Hot Chili Peppers learning a song by 30 Seconds to Mars.
What makes it so interesting to me is watching them try to play along without hearing the drumming in the original song. Check it out below!
