Ok here is a weird problem.
I am currently shopping for a new drum set. (shells only) I might buy a used set, but I want to try out as many different sets as I can.
I went to a different Guitar Center (not my usual one), and WOW ! They have a bunch of drum sets all set up and ready to try out. Oh goody !
I sit down on this Tama Superstar kit and I begin to groove and fill. And after about 2 minutes I now have an audience. About 6 people. Guys and gals from the drum section, other GC workers and I guess some customers. I’m like putting on a drum clinic.
Well it is embarrassing ! I’m trying to hear how the drums sound. And I want to try out several other sets.
But I only tried out that one set and I left the store. Because I don’t want to play for an audience. I don’t want the pressure of trying to perform my best. I just want to be left alone to try out some drum sets.
And with those people watching me made me fell like I was showing off.........
So what do I do now ? Should I go in to a store and pretend that I can’t play very well just so I can hear what the many drum sets sounds like???
