I was just wondering how many GOOD female drummers there are. it seem`s all chicks on the drumlines i`ve seen and been on only play bass. they either suck or drop out. I only know of one female snare drummer. so i was just curious as to how many responses i`ll get from serious girl drummers.

p.s. any difficult snare/tenor music would be cool

I tried out for snare this year,it was my first year ever playing the marching band snare, and everybody said "You better quit right now cause it`s too hard, and the last girl that tried out started crying and quit." but I stayed for band camp and learned some cadences. Yes it was hard, but I always wanted to learn how to do something. I was up against 4-5 year veterans.At one of the meetings they told me that none of them started out on snare their very first year except one of them. After 2 1/2 weeks on snare, I learned how to play the cymbals and I played cymbals for the rest of the season. People have a stereotype about girls on snare, but I`m ready to play snare next year. I needed the experience this season though. it helped alot.
I see a lot of girls playin snare. A lot more females play snare now than they did before. But I hardly see girls on tenor. I only know one girl that plays tenor really good.

I`m a freshman at my highschool and I play the snare. I played drums in middle school and my dad played bass drum when he was in highschool, so naturally I love to play. I was so nervous when I tried out because I was worried that I wouldn`t even make the line because everyone had more experience than I did. But later I heard that I would be playing snare drum along with our senor captain. The hardest part for me was learning the cadences without music and marching and playing at the same time. It`s all a piece of cake now.

I`m a girl tennor player. When i was in the 8th grade the local high school offered me a spot in their marching band. I went in it and LOVED IT. I.m still playing and if anyone has any good sheet music i need it alot

well that`s cool, i guess that i just need to incurage the local female drummers to join marching band. we have only one girl on the line and she plays cymbals and doesn`t give a crap about anything.

freshmen on snare rock

Freshman CHICKS on snare rock even more!! I made snare my sophomore year, but my 1st love is top bass....what can I say.

Hey i just wanted to say that i think the most sexy thing a girl can ever do, is show another dude up on drums. Its AWESOME. Im also glad that girls are starting to play drums instead of backing out GIRL POWER. Also i wanted to say that if u ever c capital regiment drumline vids online watch their center tenor. (03,04,05)Hisa name is brandom maxwell and he has been offered positions at cavies,bd,scv,bluecoats,glassman,and crossman. but he declined because he wants to stay where he is. He is amzing and my personal best friend.

I also want to find out if theres andy reall talent in music making on this message board. Email me if you think that u can make a better music peice than me. I like doing this because its a way to share music and get good music.

hey ive been playing flute for 5 years but after completeing my first season in the local high school marching band i found myself paying more and more attention to the drumline during camps, competions, and football games than i was to my own section. it seemed inevitable that a month after the season ended i began snare lessons and let me tell you, drumming is the most fun thing ive ever done! my parents were a little hesitant as first because they saw it as a "guy`s instrument" but now they know how much i love it and forget about their sterotype. hopefully this year will be my first year in the line and i can prove all of the guys wrong. just because im a girl, DOESNT MEAN I CANT DRUM!

I think that sarah is very hot and that i would like to date her

tenor rocks and even when people said that because i was a girl and a freshmen i couldn`t play i showed all of thier asses and made it!

hey shani, ur way to full of urself and u will not get better at any percussion instroment until u learn some humility.
