Though I am a guitarist, and have been since I was 6 years old, I originally wanted to be a drummer, and in fact still love the drums...I don't really play them well, and my kit is just a cheap $300 Gammon set...but playing them is great fun, and a workout as well...I don't attend a gym, but I play drums instead....Drummers out there, post your vids of you playing...I would love to hear you guys...here is a video of me fooling around about a half hour ago....  |

Thats AWESOME that you posted that! Exalt.
I think I'm like you but reversed. Always loved the guitar but became a drummer. Now all I have is a guitar because my drums have been stored at my Moms place for the last 5 years as I moved close to a 1000 miles away to an apartment. I'm not that great a guitarist, but I feel like a badass when I play it! ;D

Exalts all round, SCB. You must have had a blast doing that.
I don't have a musical bone in my body and can't keep time with a watch, but here's a tub thumper I can enjoy all day and twice on Sundays.

I have never really banged on the skins beyond when I had my drum kit as a kid. Had the kit for 4 weeks, learned EVERY song GnR's Appetite album (my uncle taught me to play the stringed instruments on the album and the drummer from his band Ray taught me the drums as a birthday present to go along with the kit) and loved playing them, until my mom got hard up for drugs/booze and sold them.
That is the story of all the musical instruments I had as a kid.

That is the story of all the musical instruments I had as a kid. That is really sad to hear. Especially when I think back and think about not playing my guitar for months because I would get frustrated and pissed off as a kid. I did have to buy it with my own money, but I never had to worry about anyone taking it away from me.  |

Did anyone become a drummer or want to be a drummer because of Peter Criss?

Yeah, I couldn't imagine having my drums taken away when I was a kid. I remember when I first was trying to learn to play, I was "playing along" to Bohemian Rhapsody (taught myself to play with a record player the old fashioned way) and an older high school age dude came over and offered free lessons as long as "you never do the shit I jut heard you playing" LOL He then proceeded to try and teach me Cygnus X-1 because Rush was "real music", he disowned them when they became "a straight pop new wave band" with Permanent Waves and Moving Pictures. ;D Not that the lessons lasted more than a couple weeks or so, being a major pot head and hanging out with a little kid and all, LOL Exalt for the great story ;D |

That'd be me. ;D And the first thing I learned to play was Double Platinum cover to cover. ;D I thought I was bad-ass when I got those intro fills in Black Diamond down and I was the fucking man for mastering 100,000 Years and getting those ghost notes and everything. ;D Could you do the 100,000 years from Alive that people used to think was the ultimate a drummer can do. |

Did anyone become a drummer or want to be a drummer because of Peter Criss? Nope! I never wanted to be a drummer, but thats just where my natural abilities were. I had a guitar well before my drums, but I always had an irritating habit of tapping my hands and feet when I was bored in class. By watching and listening I picked it up quite easily and could pretty much play by the time I got my first set. I'm not a great drummer by any means but I'm many times much better than I am on guitar, and I've been trying to play that for almost 30 years now. |

I play the bass myself, but I gave up trying to play the guitar to save myself years of frustration ;D. |

Did anyone become a drummer or want to be a drummer because of Peter Criss? Hell yeah. I became a Kiss fan in 1976 and by 1977 i wanted to be Peter ;D I got my first kit in 1980 and soon realized there were so many better drummers in the world , but Peter will always be the first that made me want to play |
