When you go to a show to see your favorite band, do you close your eyes and sing to the music, or do you watch every member of the band individually?

Nothing makes a show for me more than watching the drummer. Thinking about where they started? Were they always that BIG? How old were they when they started playing?

Of course, the other positions are cool too, but have you ever focused in on the drummer? I mean he keeps the beat of every song. He leads his team in the right direction to start a new song. Rock steady drummers can actually be smarter than their bandmates.

Drumming is also known as one of the best forms of exercise, with the longest drum roll being 8 hours, 1 minute and 17 seconds, in 2012.

My favorite drummer is James Cassells, from Asking Alexandria!

One of the world's most famous drummers is 101-year-old Viola Smith! That's right, a female!!! She claims that drumming has led to her longevity.

The world's largest drum kit has 813 pieces and took 36 years to build. It takes 15 hours and four people to put it up, and one hour to hit each individual piece!
