Unable to “snare” talent over eons.

Bonk Bonk Bonk!

Music with rocks.

and Evelyn Glennie.

As long as female butts are shakin’ to it I’m fine with it.

I like the “cymbals” of each age!

I don’t want to work. I just want to bang on the drum all day…

Only an increase in volume/loudness!

Drummers are all Johnny One-Notes.

Tom-tom go.

Not a whole lotta difference.

The stone age, the early stage of rock music.

Today at the farmer’s market a young guy was bonking Middle Ages style.

They missed the iron age heavy metal music.

Eons of driving us bonkers? On the other hand, the humble beginnings of digital?

In an early BC comic strip, one of the guys was a beatnik drummer in a brief arc, and he did a lot more than bonk bonk. Something like flam a diddle diddle. When the strip showed up on GoComics classics, a commenter said that the noises were actual drummer notations, not just random cartoon sound effects.

Maybe those late 1950s cavemen were more advanced than we give them credit for…

Drumming up support.

Ginger Baker in the beginning.
