in reply to I play the following instrument(s)...

I'm the guy that hangs out with musicans. You know ... the drummer ;) Actually, my first instrument was the saxophone. I started when i was 10 and put it down the summer before my senior high school year (1987). I quit the marching band (they wouldn't let me march quads or snare - i don't blame them) and got a job at Taco Bell (so i could buy my own drums). I have since learned how to play some guitar chords, but i am a drummer by trade.

Sigh ... shameless promotion/demonstration time: http://jeffa.unlocalhost.com

    Q: what does it mean when the drummer is drooling out both sides of his mouth?
    A: the stage is level.

    i have a drummer friend who collects drummer jokes. that's about the only one i can remember.

    myself, i play the phallic symbol guitar. i have a nice black ibanez iceman that i run through a DOD effects pedal and into my computer. i have several large amps in my parents' garage but for my tiny manhattan apartment, i just play it through the stereo so my neighbors don't kill me.
