7 Problems Only Drummers Would Understand

"What do you call a guy who hangs around with a band? A drummer".

That's just one of those drum-related jokes those who play other musical instruments love to bust out, presumably feeling hogging all the glory and sticking the drummer at the back of the stage isn't quite enough.

"What do you call a drummer without a girlfriend? Homeless".

There's another, a truly hilarious jab at homelessness packed neatly into another barb at your drummer's expense.

Usually, these jokes are uttered by singers and guitarists, although those pesky bass players do chime in from time to time. After all, bassists can't handle the fact that they are part of the rhythm section too, so they do the dirty on their rhythmical brothers or sisters and join in the fun.

Should you wish to start playing drums, prepare to be met with endless drummer jokes. This is true even if you start on another instrument and move behind the kit, because people seemingly feel you must be stupid if you play the drums.
