Drums\bass\band help!

1. the drum thing is good for now but like beans said. he should learn how to play a kit as soon as possible. drums are pretty easy to learn, especially since you said you are a punk band. punk beats are like the easiest thing on drums.

2. the bass thing. you could either A. play without a bassist B. play without a bassist and then when you find one just stick him in with the band C. find a decent guitarist (know the notes on the guitar, simple riffs) and put a bass in his hand. Bass is the EASIEST thing in the world to learn. trust me, I can play MANY instruments.

Starting a band is a good idea, and if he starts on a snare drum, that would work. But I would suggest he quickly get drum lessons so that he can learn at least play a simple beat, it will really help everyone else to progress if he can at least put 1 beat together and start learning to keep time without any metronome. and you don’t need bass guitar, but it helps with the rythm of a song and gives a fuller feeling. Hope I helped ( : BEANS

I think its a good idea to make a band you never know you could go far all you can do is practice as much as you can maybe in your free time is the best even when your at school you can ask your music teacher if he/she could spare some time to teach you all ask your teachers if they know how to play there instroments it might work they do that at my school just try then you’ve got a chance but if you dont try then nothing will work you cant always do things yourself sometimes you’ve got to ask for help but dont ditch your mate’s because they cant play the you will be solo just remember practice makes perfect
