No, I haven't skipped any grades. I went to my neighboring highschool, as I will be attending their next year. But i randomly walk up to the conductor( because there were all he different jazz instruments. Tramnbone, saxophone,drums,guitars, the whole 9 yards) And asked him if it was okay if I played drums for a song and to my disbeleif he says YES!
So i walk up their, and the drummer who was actually the drummer for the band was all mad, and distracting me the entire time i was up their. But he let me play the song. So i randomly go up their and play something like keith moon would've done, accept a lot simpler for 2 reasons( 1; less skill 2; less drums )
So basicly, keeping the beat but adding in a lot of crashes and snares and a few extra drum beats every once in a while. And this was the senior Band! the 12th grade guys and they were all high fiving me after the song and everything!
This is by far, the favourite thing that has ever happend to me while on the school clock!
btw, the drummer was doing the stop signal 4 times to em during the song, and like, saying stuff into my ears and stuff. You know, the signal where your arms are crossed and then you uncross them.
I am the only student at my school that is a fan of The older Metallica, Dream Theater and Pantera. i mean, yea my frnech teacher likes the old DT pre 1994. But like, theres no one at my schooll who lieks te same stuff! like I can't talk to them about the new Dream theater album or the older Metallica ones( pre 1991). I mean, it sucks having opinions but when you say them everyone around you just says"wth is a dream theater?" I mean, I asked someone once, " whats your favourite Jimmi Hendrix song?" and they said " who the hell is Jimmy Hendrix?" . I just wish someone listened to real music....... I have one friend but hes only on the internet and lives like 20 miles away
