gawin mo lang syang libangan at inspiration bro. mahirap ang buhay kung aasa ka lang sa gig.

mas maganda yung may natapos then saka mo i-pursue drumming mo. mas masarap mag drums kapag may trabaho ka at may pambili ka ng gears mo.

unless you're michael alba or bagets or ryan cayabyab at silang mga high up there.

eto akin. finish studies. para mapagbigyan ang magulang. if you want then better if you take up music. walang drumming course sa pinas which is sad pero may music ed etc. at least mga yun mas malapit sa gusto mo.

never stop aiming for a gig. kasi may gears ka nga, latest lahat, pero you don't get to perform din naman in front of people, sa tingin ko it's nothing more of a hobby nalang kung ganon. which is opposite ng gusto mo. kung kukuha ka ng office type setting na job in the future pero ang isip/puso mo nasa pagtugtug i'm sure you won't last long. hahanapin ng katawan mo yan kung talagang passionate ka about it. i say keep it up bro!

Lastly, it's good alam mo na gusto mo gawin early as now. Since HS student ka palang, ingat ingat nalang sa relationships. Pag may family ka nga naman, yun talaga ang uunahin mo. So caution lang. Ingat sa chorva.

tama cla, lalo na si jcbedero... mas masarap may stable job, may pambili ng gear.

Saka bata ka pa, mas malamang magbago pa isip mo pag narealize mo ang family life na walang pera.....

ako din bro nakakarelate ako jan, tagal ko na din nag drums. passion kasi eh masaya talaga at iba ang feeling...nirvana nga...hahaha! pero same as your case bro, might give up drumming next year para sa family ko...i have to work as a nurse outside the country, mahirap na baka makulong pa ako dun dahil sobrang ingay. ganun talaga...there's a time for everything, kaya kung ano man yung nagagawa mo ngayon...treasure it pare wala naman masama jan, pero syempre priorities din, sa case mo man, ayus yan! pag nakatapos ka school makakahanap ka ng magandang work, you can help your family tapos mabibili mo pa yung mga kailangan mo sa drumming mo. goodluck there bro. godbless.

Well HS student palang pero diba..

bro, hindi ka nag-iisa.. karaniwang case ng musikero yan.. ako man, kailangan ko pa humingi ng permit sa head ng homeowners para lang pumayag sarili kong mga magulang mag-drums ako.. at tuwing hapon lang pwede.. san ka pa? back to topic.. HS ka pa, same level nung nagsimula ako mag-drums.. ang ginawa ko simula pa lang pinakita ko na ang passion ko hindi ako dadalhin pababa.. nag-ipon ako ng 100 a day (baon ko dati kasi malayo school ko mataas pamasahe) para makabili ng drumset.. nag-ensayo ako, nag-gig para magkapera etc.. ngayon na may trabaho na ako, mas masarap ang pakiramdam kasi lahat ng gusto ko nabibili ko at will.. hindi man related sa music ung trabaho ko, nag-provide naman sa akin ito ng pera pambili ng gears.. sa akin lang, may passion ka kid, pero ito lang ang lagi mo isipin:

tumugtog ka para magkapera o magkapera ka para makatugtog.. alam mo na siguro ung tamang desisyon dito.. good luck and happy drumming!

manrey · « **Reply #16 on:** October 26, 2009, 09:42:40 AM »

ako dati gusto ko mag drums, guitar and bass lang ang natutunan ko, wala volume pot yung drums e. high blood c inay

isa pa mahal talaga cya wlang pambili nung hs. tapos ngayun ece nanaman ako kso ewan koba kung bakit wala parin akong pambili ngayun

ang sabi nila kung anu ang sahod mu yun din ang kita mu. kung maliit, tipid, kung malaki medyo malaki din talaga ang gastos.
the point is... dapat plano talaga at plano rin kung di pepede ang unang plano, fallback kung baga.
pde rin yung natapusan mu pang pamilya at yung pang tugtug mung kinita para sau. katulad ng piyanista sa barko o kya sa bar.
sa drums ba pde mag isa? hindi dba.
ito pa malupit, hindi naman nkatapos ka dun knalang e. magdadagdag kparin kc marami rin nakatapos na walang work o may work hindi masustain yung gusto bilhin gya ng gears.
nag ccna nga ko ngayun para makapasok sa call center e at hopefully makabili ako ng medeli atleast may volume knob na.
pero alam ko first thing first nanaman. nabaha kc sister ko e.

Well HS student palang pero diba..

I feel for you bro! Ganyan din ako before, way back 1993 when my mom bought me my first kit (HS din ako nun), uber happy sila while watching me play over my beatles' records. But when I told them that I wanted to be a musician, nawala na ung support and interest nila. It's very difficult for me to be in that kind of situation, seems like ako na lang ang nag eenjoy sa ginagawa ko. So I decided to quit after 10 years of playing. For a time nawalan na rin ako ng interest to play drums (which I regret the most), then after finishing my studies bumalik na ulit ako sa pag drums. Ngayon I enjoy playing and listening to other drummers.

Same as kibohead, i too will leave the country to work for my family (but I won't give up drumming). Good thing not so soon, nakahanap kasi ako ng excuse... nag masteral ako! hahaha so mga 1.5 yrs pa. hehehe So ayun, sorry sa mala nobelang reply ko. Gusto ko lang share sayo experience ko re: your dilemma, hindi ka nag iisa.

Since HS ka pa lang... enjoy your time playing, do what you can do to improve your skill and hope for the best! You have a long road ahead of you, malay mo maging isang sikat na musikero diba? Happy drumming bro!

wag ka lang magfocus sa pag play ng drums.
Mas lawakan mo pa yung knowledge mo about music. Kung paano ka mabubuhay.

mylesthedrummer · « **Reply #21 on:** October 26, 2009, 08:44:05 PM »

Bro bata ka pa.

Honestly, when you get to my age (as well as madami din dito who replied na very realistic and fruitful sinabi), mag iiba main priorities mo eh.

You have to start thinking about your career and future. Anjan na ang Financial Stability.

If I were you, ang possible mind set is pagisipan mo pano mo masusustain hilig mo.

Ako tagal ko nag work sa labas and hinay hinay ako nun sa gig. Now, business and tututok sa forex trading. Atleast hawak ko oras ko, I get to earn money, AND...nakakapagdrums.
