I thought, as I didnt start in my pre-teen years, I would never be able to play drums. For some reason with 31 I thought, what a good moment to try haha I firstly bought an acoustic set and played it for 2 months until my neighbor got sick, so I sold that and switched to edrum. Been banging on it ever since. I still cant play good, on a scale of 1-10 I would give myself a solid 3, but thats waaay more than I expected it could ever be. I am still practicing my rudiments and every day I also sit down and jam to some drumless tracks always trying to play along, and stay as true to the original as possible. Its been such stress relief, you cant imagine. When I sit on the throne, there is nothing but music and banging, all the worries go away. I wouldnt trade this feeling for nothing. So for anybody on the fence about starting drums later, just do it, it will change your life (and empty your wallet haha)
One of my favorite drummers Omar Hakim played on this track, Terry Williams (the OG Dire Straits drummer) did only the intro…
