My band has a pool of 4 drummers, all readers. Very useful as the arrangements are all scored out and put into a Dropbox. Any new medleys and arrangement whoever is on the gig scores it out and updates the Dropbox. Works incredibly well and we don’t need rehearsals! After a complete Drummer nightmare, it’s pretty useful having two west end drummers and two drum teachers on tap for drums and perc duties!

Is that the technical description? A flock of starlings, a herd of cattle, a pool of drummers?

;)

Officially, it's an 'asylum', a 'fagot' or a 'roll' of drummers. :i-m_so_happy:

I’m primarily a drummer, and I play bass as a secondary instrument. 

 

Ive been able to read charts for years - it’s really useful for dep gigs and stuff with big bands etc. 

 

I was recently asked to play bass for a sort of ‘casual orchestra’ and I realised after 20 years of playing to drum scores I really struggled with reading pitched scores!
