He must be able to play the whole song. On drums. And it would be preferable if he can learn it and play it at the next Eistedford here in Gippsland. (but not in the contract as such .)....but I want to hear it at a public event.:p

Do you mean "He must be able to play the whole song." as in no mistakes, or just as in long as he plays the entire song?...Before people kill over from exhaustion...

(Only joking)...

Fuzzy, you bloody brilliant do you know that.

What a fantastic way to motivate your child and it instills so many life skills and he will thank you for it forever.

You Rock Mrs!

He's thirteen and wants his brothers car . i"ll give it to him if he can do this ....i'ts not exactly impossible.

Oh ok...

Because I would have to imagine that it would be extremely hard to do the entire set of "Run to the hills" by Iron Maiden without any mistakes having never played it...

Although I suppose it would depend on how much time he has to practice within a year...

I can't even imagine what it's like to give a drum set to a child to whom's never played it...

You're brave...:wah:

He has his own set but practices more at school

......thank god ...he did want to learn the bagpipes. Now that would be brave of me :wah:

but if you don't like your brother or sister buy your nieces and nephews a small drumset.

It will give many happy hours to the child and yourself as you stand there with a smirk on your face.........(insert evil laugh, here ------>.............)

Ah I see...

The teachers are brave!!!...:wah:...

Ha...

In any case I bet you're glad he's had time to at least get fundamental beats down before coming full march into your living room...

:wah:

Bagpipes...

More like bleeding out of your ears!!!...

Bagpipes are nice but for someone to whom doesn't know how to play them I'm quite sure is agonizing torture...

Just,...not anywhere close to me!!!...:wah:
