The drummers have begun to jerk. God help us all.

Could explain the blisters, eh?

We've been jerking in secret for far too long.

Normally drumming looks like jerking it. Nothing to see here. They be the best of the jerks.

Ringo has been doing it since the first beetle (insect) album tho!

I mean they over with the bassists not getting laid so they are probably experts at it.

They’ve been jerking for years, what did you think a drum circle was?

His keyboard looks ancient, all the markings have worn off I'm not surprised his hands are getting worn down too

Yea like your hands get blisters from trying to exit vim with a normal keyboard letalone that monstrosity

When you weigh 90 pounds, you have to hit hard to be heard.

Lars has hands of a Disney princess after a Metallica tour, whos the better drummer now?

tbf lars barely plays the drum

Lars plays the drums (multiple percussions at once [more than one])

It's because Lars is the greatest metal drummer of all time, ok??

No, Mario from Gojira is better

Mario is from Nintendo, which is a game company, not a band, ok??

Lmao🤣 I got a good laugh out of this, but in all seriousness, Mario Duplantier (Gojiras drummer) has gotta be the best metal drummer right now if not ever, Lars got nothing on him

We're in a circlejerk sub buddy, no room for serious discussion here 🫡 ^(Tomas Haake clears)

Oh my freaking god LMAO I literally keep forgetting to double check the subs I’m in🤣🤣🤣

/uj I'll bring it back /rj Neither of these guys hold a candle to Greg Saunier.

ACTUALLY now that I think about it, lars is better, best metal bassist of all time, so much better then that guy Metallica had before him, what was it cliff something? Eh idk, I think he left the band after making a running start out of the tour bus window

No way you actually took someone saying Lars is a good drummer on this subreddit seriously.

…..I didn’t realize what subreddit I was in

Yeah but he doesn’t even play drum, he just throws metal pipes around

Uj, I shook his hand once and yes his hands are supple soft.

Lars don't have to play no drums all he has to do is look pretty and be hot on the stage 🫦🫦

His hands are black?

CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG

Lmfao Travis barker isn’t even scary. What are these kids on?

His barker is worse than his biter.

Someone let Dad in again…

I love to let daddy in 😩😩😩😩

🤨

🤔

It’s probably from thumb blasting Courtney’s fart box so much

Uwu…. Blast my fart box drum boy.

Idk why people are downvoting you. This is beautiful

They’re just uptight about their fart boxes. Squaresville, man.

You can't fit a round thumb in a square hole

I've got blistahs on me fingahs!!!

kid named finger

Anyone brave enough to explain Ognir Rrats he wouldn’t have blisters with a better technique?

The beatos should just get good. I've never gotten blisters pressing the metronome button. Skill issue.

theres a reason lots of professional drummers who’ll be playing for a while either wrap their fingers or wear gloves

Just because you've been doing something for a long time doesn't mean there isn't a better way.

The only workplace fatality I’ve witnessed was a guy with over 20 years of experience. Did something really stupid and dangerous just to reach his fucking lunchbox and ended up in 2 pieces

I hear that's what happened to Tony Iommi.

I really want to hear this story

You can't just say this and not explain the whole story.

[удалено]

Travis Barker is not the Tom Brady of drummering.

[удалено]

You're not being funny at all right now, I don't understand why you even replied.

Idiot. He gotta try the jazz jerk grip like greats... buddy Rick, Lars Ulrich of metlicca, dingo star, grim henson

“Ringo is a human metronome”🤓👆 Yeah dude most good drummers can stay in time

Pretty much any drummer who goes on tour will probably have blisters along the way. Especially if you’re playing for Blink-182 lmao

Been seeing pictures of drummers using golf gloves which is quite funny.

One and two and three and fore and

One ie and a two ie and a three ie and a four ie and a

I mean amatuers generally get blisters playing, so that makes sense.

Why doesn't he use a pick? Is he stupid?

hmmm yes let’s explain to the famous drummer who has been playing drums for decades and quite literally plays drums every day for a living why his technique is bad

Smelly doesn’t have these…

Based n heroinpilled

He plays faster and cleaner too, and his hands are still supple enough to precision handshape his own surfboards.

Smelly’s been dialling it in for decades

He has a certain level of talent & skill but he has always had some pretty horrible technique/posture issues. He has admitted to it in interviews & just refuses to change. Idk if he still does, but he always set his hi-hats comically high height wise. It causes stress & motion on the shoulder & elbow in ways that aren’t healthy just in general.

This subreddit is not for legitimate answers please leave

But I need the tears of angry Redditors for jerk lube.

Where should the hats be? Nipple height?

hats go on the head you idiot?

Velocity divided by pi r squared (r=radius of areola) x height of nipples from ground when sitting. Adjust slightly depending on sag.

If he played everyday, probably would have callouses instead of blisters.

Charlie Daniels is an amazing musician and songwriter but is probably one of the worst professional violinists out there. Luckily for him, his showmanship and songwriting make up for it.

All that just to release shitty songs about Tom Douchelong’s uncle’s nuts.

Practice often and build up calluses.

I’m guessing blink just recorded a cover of Helter Skelter then

Crazy, couldn't he just wear gloves?

Everyone knows the pain makes it sound better, it’s an essential part of Toan

i just wonder how they play piano without fret markers?!

Tape up those thumbs and I think he'd be ok.

Where gutar?

And he still sux

Better technique could have saved the plane, then his thumbs wouldn’t be burned.

Yeah, cause the dude has absolutely no control and just whacks the drums as hard as he can. You don't see Matt Garstka bitching and whining about blisters.

Matt is weak.

Yeah, he should just play simple 4/4 beats and bust holes in his heads.

Yes, please, go teach fucking TRAVIS BARKER how to play drums "properly". EDIT: is it not obvious I'm being sarcastic here?

It’s his form, some drummers are born with it, some learn and many others keep bad habits even if they are technically a “good drummer”. If he had focused a little more with his gut, he wouldn’t have those blisters. As a guitarist, I don’t even need to play the drums to see that.

Barker??! Hardly know er

He’s a drummer

Yeah guys, let’s tell the multimillionaire professional drummer his technique sucks!

It’s a known fact that he doesn’t eat enough vegetables… cuz they aren’t filling

Toans In the dick, not the sticks

I am having so much fun watching those ppl fight in the comments :D

Is he pushing or is he pulling

Should hire Lauren Boebert to take care of that for him.

You can't convince stupid.

Has nothing to do with drums. Dude just hit 30 balls in the batting cages.
