    history of drumming (and quitting)

Whoa, how did I not know this? You're now one of ~4 people I know that I could potentially talk shop with!

But yeah, I really want to see Whiplash. I just haven't been able to see that many movies these days, it's pretty lame. I have a to-watch list a mile long, but it's such an effort. Finding time, driving to the theatre, buying ridiculously expensive tickets and concessions, sitting through God knows how many commercials--it gets old after a while.

It was quite a while ago, though: I quit before I started high school. Only last year did I pick up my sticks for a bit of jamming with friends. Felt like starting over again!

I only go to the theatres when I know a movie's gonna be worth it. I really hope this catches on: small theatres with food on-order, more legroom, no commercials and no kids because it's more expensive. But I still prefer the home cinema.
