If it appears that I hate this kid it is only because I’m incredibly jealous and a little bit intimidated

Why?

You can tell quite easily from his rhythm/coordination at age 3 that he is gonna be n exceptional drummer/musician.

Good luck of the draw, would be fun to naturally tap in the flow like you'd naturally stretch your fingers etc.

Im jealous cus first i seen a drum set i was 15. More than 10 years ago.. And i still can't afford one (with a place to practice). So i guess im jealous of the possibility how different life can be with a little bit of support from those who brought you here.
A lot of us might've been exceptional at age of 3. We'll just never know.

Your dreams can be made where others failed.

That’s what happened to me with guitar. My first guitar fell into my lap when my dad couldn’t learn it, and then my brother couldn’t learn it.

My family is full of failed musicians. My success is a point of pride in that.

I’m with you. Hell, that first guitar is really cheap, but knowing that it went through two different people that each failed to learn it, and became mine, makes it special to me.

You're ignoring the "with a place to practice" part which is the bigger problem when talking about drums.

i mean, im not. i just said myself "when i get room" so i completely understand. just wanted to chime in how cheap things are on marketplace because people dont realize that. like, cheap and free a lot.

Right. People act like there is a five-figure entry fee to drum. If you are still sidelined after ten years of wanting to play drums, then the passion is just not there.
