Welcome to Gaia! ::

I've only had one teacher and he's pretty cool. I guess I'm lucky. I hope you get a better teacher or something sweatdrop

my cousins teacher only turned up to 50% of the lessons he paid for. but he soon switched to a proper musical centre.

I'm hoping to ditch my current teacher. I think I'll list my complaints just so you guys can take your time to read them or ignore them I don't care i just want to complain about this fatty.
Every day he complains about me. The bell rings he gives us one minute to practice and i have to take out the set and get everything ready in about 2 minutes or he complains. After that he makes us play the same 10 songs over and over. The drum beat is almost always something that requires no skill at all and then one day he just says hey Tylor during this low part of the song i just want you to do some fills. I asked him how many fills what speed, length, style, and count he wanted he said just make it up. So i do some fills he says how about we do a little less fills because i figured maybe he wannts me to do a worth while solo since nothing but the drums play there. So I lightened it up a bit and he just ignored every other question i had about how exactly he wanted me to do it. About 3 days ago wich was like 2 months after he told me to just do fills he says oh how about we not do fills some emo girl in my class was like YEAH it sounds retarded when you just start rockin out during the song doing all that hard stuff and my teacher is all YEAH shes right. I just got mad and started yelling you think thats rockin out and thats hard stuff then your all retarded. So the rest of the class period I was pissed because he underestimates me and always gives me the easiest thing you'll ever play on a songs that i've made parts up that he admitted would sound better but he wouldnt let me play it cuz i thought i wasnt good enough. but during that class period the other drummers were being a bunch of retards like always theyre in the advanced band with me so i kinda expect them to know a few things but then they start making me even angrier asking me questions like how do you loosen the snares and then one of the other drummers tightened his bass drum heads until he couldnt move it any more because he thought he knew how to toon it so as i'm yelling at them my band teacher is in front of every one saying i sound like his mother and i need anger management.
The only thing he has ever taught me is how to read music and a lot of successful metal drummers dont even know how to read because they dont need to. The only reason i was staying in his class because next year ill be going to the highschool and theres some really good drummers there even if they dont play the same stuff as me as good as me i know they can show me a lot of stuff but i dont think its worth listening to my stupid teacher who knows nothing about drumms yell at me for doing something perfect. It occured to me today that the only beat he know is bass drum on the first count and the snare on three with me riding on the closed hi hat so you cant even hear it
I have a few more complaints but i dont know if i want to keep typing about it the bad thing about all this is that i might not be able to get out of his class its all up to my dad

My rock band teachers r awesome. My school band teacher acts like a baby. She heas to leave the room when she's mad. She laughs for no reason. She threw herself on the floor twice, once for us getting the music right, and once because the woodwinds were way off.

haha my teacher gets mad at me when i dont spit my chewing gum out, its not going to make a difference if my mouth is moving is it?

whee

Mines cool because he'll come to the section and play with us until we get what we're workin on. most of the perc. section hates em because he does'nt let us talk that much, but I think that's good because some of our band realy needs help. his only problem is that he plays traditional grip with his right hand. smile
