An amateur
drummer died and went to heaven. He was waiting outside
the pearly gates when he heard the most incredible fast
and furious drumming coming from within. Immediately he
recognized the playing and rushed to ask St. Peter if that
was Buddy Rich playing drums inside the gates. St. Peter
responded: "No, that's God. He just thinks he's Buddy
Rich."

A guy
wanted to play bass in a band. The band told him, "Okay,
but you will have to have 1/3 of your brain removed."
So the guy went into surgery. When he woke up, the doctor
said, "I'm terribly sorry, but we made a mistake and
accidentally removed 3/4's of your brain instead. You're
now a drummer".
A man
goes to a pacific island for vacation. As the boat nears,
he notices the constant sound of drumming. As he gets
off the boat, he asks a native how long the drumming will
go on. The native casts about nervously and says "very
bad when drumming stops."
Later that day, the drumming is still going and it is
really starting to get to him. So, he asks another native
when the drumming will stop. The native looks as if he's
just been spooked. "Very bad when drumming stops,"
he says, and hurries off.
After
a couple of days with little sleep, the man had had enough.
He grabbed the first native he saw, slammed him up against
a tree, and shouted, "What happens when the drumming
stops?!"
The
native replied, "Bass solo."
A New
York drummer by the name of Joe was out of work and desperately
searching for a gig. He went to the union office where they
told him about plentiful jobs in Greece. "Greece?,
the drummer said. The union representative replied, "Hey,
do you want to work or don't you?".
So the
man packed his bags and headed off to Greece. He was to
meet up with an old guy by the name of Tarek at a small
pub near the town of Perin. Upon his arrival, he located
the pub but Tarek was nowhere to be found.
He tracked
Tarek down later by phone. He said he needed him for a last
minute wedding gig tonight at the Oasis hotel. There would
be over 400 guests but unfortunately there wouldn't be time
for a rehearsal. Tarek said, "Just show up with your
drums and be ready to play." Well, the NY drummer wasn't
that nervous. He he had played hundreds of wedding gigs
back in New York and he was just happy to have some work.
Joe
arrived at the hotel on time. The whole band was there except
the band leader, Tarek. He set up his drums and patiently
awaited for the old guy. Tarek finally arrived 5 minutes
before they were supposed to go on. He frantically set up
his music stand and raised his arm to lead the band. "Wait!,
shouted the NY drummer, what are we playing?" Tarek
looked at him calmly (knowing he was a professional drummer)
and stated, "Just relax and give me strong backbeats
on 7 and 13."
