pinagselosan na ba ng missis or girlfrend mo ang drums mo?
ano naman ang pinaka worst nyong away dahil sa pag seselos sa drums mo?
binutas nya ba drums mo? hehehe (wag naman sana)
in dat case pag drummer kaya syota mo ok kaya? d kaya sya mag seselos sa pinakamamahal mong drumkit??
ano naman nag benifits ng syotang drummer (aside from magaling pumalo)
rasta bro, nice topic, this got me thinkin.
havin a drummer for a gf would be a bonus kasi you have someone you can relate to straightaway, but hopefully you would also be able to get along with her in other aspects. this isnt the only thing naman that i would look into. talagang it would be great if she's also a skilled drummer, a viable source of free lessons di ba! plus im a frustrated drummer so seein her really poundin the drums like a drum maniac on a holiday would really (for me lang) would compensate for my lack of drum skills. kumbaga pang tanggal na rin ng stress siguro just watchin her play the kit and wishin i was that good. but then again, IMHO there are other aspects din naman that are even more worth considering before gettin into a relationship.
pero benefits of a drummer gf imho:
- if she's better than u, free lessons tips and tricks
- appreciative of your drum spending patterns
- mindful of your drum time (with a band or even as a hobby)
- drum stuff as gifts pag anniv, bday, vday, xmas, new year, promotion, etc
- if ur busy with your career (if not a drummer), u can ask her to familiarise herself with some of tracks that you wish to cover/practice para she can teach when ur back from work na.
- drumtalk 24/7 if you wish
- may ka-date ka sa mga drum events or concerts na medyo focus mo yung drummer.
- if you'll live together: expect at least 2 drum kits at home (for the sake of personal drum configuration and drum duet or lessons); expect your drum room to be kickass! all the nice equipment and studio gadgets
- a subscription to modern drummer/rhythm/drummer is a must (if budget constrained, you will still choose your subscription to a drum mag over a newspaper subscription)
- yung jewelry collection nya made of b20 alloy depende kung ano mood nya dark, brilliant, fast etc.
- yung furnitures and appliances are all drum-related from the wallclock to the dinner set. coffee table: luma/vintage bass drum.
- etc etc
having said all these, i realised i'd be happy and excited at first pero she has to have some other outlet or hobby or we would have to have some differences para we won't get bored in the longrun pag puro drums na lang. i have lots of hobbies so im sure i could keep her occupied in and out of the house as long as our personalities get along despite the differences. also sana dream catch kayo sa isat isa para patas na jackpot lang to one another!
if hindi drummer ang wife/gf, at least make an effort to teach her and make her understand your passion and why it's important to you and the same goes with you and her hobbies.
