My first instrument was the drums. Not quite sure why I quit and changed to guitar, but I'm sure my parents might have convinced me that the guitar was way better.

Krupa's drums went through us like a triple bourbon.
Eddie Condon

All music is what awakes from you when you are reminded by the instruments. It is not the violins and the cornets-it is not the oboe nor the beating drums, nor the score of the baritone singer singing his sweet romanza-nor that of the women's chorus it is nearer and farther than they.
Walt Whitman

I've played drums since I was 15. My sisters and I all played instruments. I kind of started with piano and then I actually played saxophone with a jazz band in middle school. So, any knowledge I had of jazz music was from playing alto-sax back then.
Miles Teller

Can we ring the bells backward? Can we unlearn the arts that pretend to civilize, and then burn the world? There is a march of science but who shall beat the drums for its retreat?
Charles Lamb

The immigrant's heart marches to the beat of two quite different drums, one from the old homeland and the other from the new. The immigrant has to bridge these two worlds, living comfortably in the new and bringing the best of his or her ancient identity and heritage to bear on life in an adopted homeland.

Still for fun, I play the drums, but I don't do much recording with them.
Jan Hammer

I had wanted to play drums since the age of 9 when I saw a drum set in the window of a music store for the first time. We took lessons at a local music school and began playing together after about 6-9 months of lessons.

I envy drummers. It must be the ultimate to sing and play drums at the same time. Phil Collins, no wonder he's so f... happy.
Noel Gallagher

A cap of good acid costs $5, and for that you can hear the Universal Symphony, with God singing solo and the Holy Ghost on drums.
Hunter S. Thompson
Image
It was never my first choice to be a singer/guitar player. I really wanted to play drums.
Ryan Adams

I've played in pipe bands in Scotland, and I've always played guitars and drums and stuff.

The bass and drums are the engine, and the key to good bass playing is it's not what you play, it's what you DON'T play that counts. You leave the spaces, they're more important than anything.

I say that drums and bass should be very prominent, with vocals being the most important thing, and maybe very little guitars. I conclude by calling for no songs over five minutes and saying that I'm sure we'll fail at anything like what I describe, but hopefully we'll do that in an interesting way. Plans never work!

I can play the guitar, the dulcimer, the piano, and the drums. However, I am not a performance quality musician. Rather, I am a composer and a producer.
Frederick Lenz

I have a bad back partially from playing the drums and singing. I used to have to hold my body in such a position that my spine got out of alignment.
Don Henley

I play mostly guitar, and I played drums in my brother's band for a while growing up.
Darren Criss

I pretty much isolated myself away from drums. I stopped looking at Modern Drummer, I stopped looking at websites.
Eric Hernandez

I always wanted to play music, and always loved it. I saw a band come to school, when I was in elementary school, and wanted to play drums. I started playing drums at 11, and that's where it all started.
Patty Schemel

I think that where it came from and the initial birth of it - it did come out of a jam at Bruno's studio, you know? He was playing drums. And Jeff Bhasker, who co-produced the record with us, is on synths, and I was playing bass.
Mark Ronson

Touch not the flute when drums are sounding around when fools have the word, the wise will be silent.
Johann Gottfried Herder

Most studios in Memphis had a house set of drums the drummers just brought their own sticks.
Steve Cropper

The Tinted Windows shows were very fun but it's very different for me as a performer. I'm not playing music - I'm just singing and I missed that. I miss rocking out on keys, drums, guitar... whatever it is.
Taylor Hanson

I love being in a band. I love playing with other human beings. I've never practiced drums unless there was another human being in the room.
