Do I have to be an expert drummer to be in a band?
Published September 11, 2011 | The answer is no…you do not have to be an expert/pro drummer
to be in a band. Just having the basics in keeping a beat with
good tempo is important. Depending on the band and music
played, it may require more skills than just a basic beat.
The bottom line is do not hold yourself back from giving yourself
a shot at being in a group. It's a great way to better your playing
skills and communicate musical ideas.
