#percussion

The thing about playing percussion is that you can create all these emotions that can be sometimes beautiful, sometimes really ugly, or sometimes sweet, sometimes as big as King Kong and so on. And so there can be a real riot out there, or it can be so refined. ↗

I really just wanted to play the drum set and match that. I was never really into the percussion thing. ↗

A movie that gets a PG-13 rating can show someone running down a street killing 27 people. And there are no repercussions. ↗

I got in the school band and the school choir. It all hit me like a ton of bricks, everything just came out. I played percussion for a while, and stayed after school forever just tinkering around with different things, the clarinets and the violins. ↗
