I've been on a drum kick lately. I love the beat of the drum and I really want to learn how to be a drummer. One day maybe! But for now, big poppa and I will have to settle for the Texas Big Beat. Drummers from nine other cities, including Houston, synced together to break he record for the most drummers drumming a 6-minute rock beat. It was pretty cool and very loud! There were girls, guys, big people and little people. It was pretty cool to watch everyone just drumming together. A song would start playing and people would just jump right in with their beats. All the loud drumming did make it kinda hard for the emcee to do her thing. It would take like three minutes to quiet everyone down to get the next thing going. But what do you expect? If I had a drum kit in front of me, I'd be banging away at it too! Money raised from this event went to help charities such as Cherish Our Children International and Mr. Holland's Opus Foundation.
We were entertained with an awesome performance by some students from Shadydale Elementary. Check out the fierce expressions on their faces! Tyra would be proud.
Look at the creepy guy on the right. See him?
Here's a close-up. Haha!
I want big poppa to sport a cool looking hat like the video guy. But he has said no numerous times.
HOWDY!
There were two guest celebrity drummers, Terry Bozzio and Frank Beard.
Frank Beard meeting one of the youngest drummers there. He looked maybe six or seven years old?
