Be careful when locking in with your drummer!

[SpaceChick]

Didn't have time to post this yesterday, but yesterday was certainly a first for me!!

So, our drummer plays to a click track (important for all the Floyd sound effects), he's an amazing drummer and a pleasure to play with.

Yesterday, we were running through Brain Damage, and all of a sudden his drumming became more erratic. I thought we'd probably lost our way against the click and he was trying to get back on track, so did my absolute best to try and lock back in, which threw off our keys and guitarist.

We limped through to the end of the track and the drummer got up, started screaming and running around the rehearsal hall grabbing his crotch.

In amongst his cries he said "Debs, why on earth did you follow me?" I replied "It's my job to lock in with you, I thought you were trying to get us back on track against the click track".

His reply to me was "Your timing was all spot on, I just had cramp in my bollocks"

I shouldn't laugh.... But....

However, I think I went up in his estimations slightly for desperately trying to lock in with him, despite his obvious temporary issues!!

You mean you don't have a secret signal for "Debs you take the beat 'cos I've got cramp in my balls"?

Can you even get bollock cramp? Sounds hilarious and painful at the same time

[JTUK]

On a serious note, if you are that tight to click you might not hear it..which can be disconcerting in itself..

I think your drummer needs to get his tackled checked over. I've never heard of bollock cramp.

Thus proving that drumming is a right pain in the balls.

It's a small village in Gloucestershire. Just down the road from Frisby-in-the-Nude.

Yes. Yes, it is.

Ah, the mushroom cloud of pain caused by groin cramp. There's not much worse, poor fella!

[Mornats]

I've sat on one of mine whilst sitting down for a meeting at work. Try hiding that one.
