Drummer Quotes

I don’t have perfect pitch. My drums sound like a drummer, not a drum machine Picture Quote #1

If your child marches to a different beat, a different drummer, you might just have to go along with that music. Help them achieve what’s important to them Picture Quote #1

You must walk to the beat of a different drummer. The same beat that the wealthy hear. If the beat sounds normal, evacuate the dance floor immediately! The goal is to not be normal, because as my radio listeners know, normal is broke Picture Quote #1

Ten silver saxes, a bass with a bow, the drummer relaxes in between shows with his cinnamon girl Picture Quote #1

It’s much easier to have a diversified career as an electronic musician than it is as a drummer. Nothing against drummers. If you’re a drummer, you just wait around for people to ask you to play drums. But if you have your own studio and can make music, you have the ability to approach music a lot differently Picture Quote #1

To succeed means that you may have to step out of line and march to the sound of your own drummer Picture Quote #1

I was a hired drummer for 3 Doors; there wasn’t an opportunity for me to write Picture Quote #1

I survived a number of garage bands during my teens and early twenties, both as drummer and guitarist. It’s nigh impossible for me to listen to music without parsing it Picture Quote #1

There’s only one drummer. We all travel to his beat. Well, I couldn’t sing his song. Because for me, it wasn’t a truthful statement. Well, Linda sang it, and it was a monster for her Picture Quote #1

Joe’s been my drummer for 14 years, and we’ve been buddies for six years Picture Quote #1

Mainly I was able to perform with music - I played the French horn, I would sing, and I was a drummer in the pipe band. So I think it was a way to show off Picture Quote #1

When I was young, I wanted to do something more low-key, like become a drummer in a rock band Picture Quote #1

I was the drummer in a band called Hemsworth for a brief stint, too - it was not very great. I didn’t even write the songs, but the band was named after me Picture Quote #1

I did pull out my old Telecaster, and have been thinking I’d like to play that loud with a drummer. But I haven’t actually done that yet Picture Quote #1

The majority of my training was as a drummer, and drummers are basically accompanists Picture Quote #1

I knew when I got to play with Al Jackson I would be a better bass player because he was the best drummer in the world. I worshipped him Picture Quote #1

I can tell you who I’d like to work with as far as rock legends. Definitely Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters. Of course Linkin Park. Actually, I already worked with Travis Barker on a couple of things. Gotta let the drummer get some. Possibly Paramore, Hayley Williams Picture Quote #1

Ted Templeman, the producer, and Donn Landee, the engineer, are the same team that signed Van Halen, when they were called Mammoth. Donn convinced them to change it to the last name of the guitar player and drummer Picture Quote #1

My drummer, Gene Lake, is Oliver Lake’s son. So I certainly have wide tastes, in not only what I listen to, but what I play as well Picture Quote #1

Portishead’s production is just insane beats you would expect to be on a KRS-One album. But then there’s this little white girl with an angel voice singing over it. It was a cool juxtaposition. I like ‘It’s A Fire.’ That’s a chill song with kind of a military drum thing going on, like a drummer boy Picture Quote #1

I joined an all-girl band in Detroit and, although I was a pianist and drummer, I was asked to play bass because no one else wanted to. When I strapped it on, it fit me as good as my leathers. At the first gig we played, I looked out at the audience and thought, ‘This is what I’m going to be doing for the rest of my life.’ Picture Quote #1

In hindsight, if I could go back in time and relay a message to my younger self, I would tell him to work on his time keeping, and that the job of a drummer is not to be the one that gets noticed the most on stage, or to be the fastest, or the loudest. Above all, it is to be the timekeeper Picture Quote #1

I think my first experience of art, or the joy in making art, was playing the horn at some high-school dance or bar mitzvah or wedding, looking at a roomful of people moving their bodies around in time to what I was doing. There was a piano player, a bass player, a drummer, and my breath making the melody Picture Quote #1

In general, we like to play as a band - guitar, piano, and voice. We also tour with a bass player, a drummer, and somebody who plays keyboard and guitar. We try to play all of our parts and flesh it out to get a lush sound, while also keeping the energy of a three-piece punk act. We want to be the best of all possible worlds Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been the DJ or the bass player or the drummer, somebody in the background. I don’t think anybody who knows me personally would say that I’m particularly shy or introverted, but I’m definitely not like Mr. Attention Picture Quote #1

I decided to build a studio in my house. We built it in my basement kitchen. I had the drummer up by the fish tank. I was in the toilet singing. The bass player was out by the shelves in the living room, and the guitarist was on the couch by the telly Picture Quote #1

When I produce a record, I roll up my sleeves; I’m not one of those passive guys. I really get in there and make sure every note is measured. I tell the bass player, ‘You have to play it like this,’ or I tell the drummer, ‘It’s got to be like this.’ Picture Quote #1
