YOUR #1 SOURCE TO BEGIN HAVING FUN LEARNING HOW TO PLAY THE DRUM SET
Welcome to drumsforu.com
Celebrating six years in business &
forty one years playing the drum
set

I would like to thank each &
everyone of my students & their
families, past & present, for
allowing me to be a part of your life
& for sharing with you my passion
in life; music & the drum set.

I live in music. Music is my life and
I could not imagine life without
music. In todays music I could not
imagine the music without drums(a
drummer). Drums play a very
important role in today &
yesterdays music. Drums are the
heart beat of every song. Without a
heart beat there is no life.

"It is never too early or too late to
begin having fun learning how to
play the drum set."

drumsforu.com is dedicated in
bringing the
ART & FUN of learning
how to play the drum set to each
and every student. The student is
exposed to a wide range of
musical styles which contributes to
a well balanced education.

Leadership: If a band has a
drummer & all other members
/musicians of that band follow the
drummer's beat while playing then
who is the leader of the band?
