What do you call a person who follows musicians around?

A groupie.

A drummer! 😉

Lol
Don't you think a drummer is a musician? 😁🤔

I think that I have poor taste in jokes and lack tact.
Loved the comment that Frank Zappa's percussionist made in the latest documentary about his life and music. 😎👍

You gave it a good try. Don't be to hard on yourself.
Frank Zappa was an amazing artist, and his kids are good too. 😀🤘

"I didn't get a Masters in Music from Julliard to stand behind the orchestra for an hour and a half to strike a triangle once"
Ya, Frank Zappa is awesome! He had written 6 symphonies before learning to play guitar at the age of 20.

I can understand what you're saying about performing, considering your schooling.
Again, Frank Zappa was an amazing artist, but I think I've only seen his kids live,

The quote was from Frank's percussionist.

as a percussionist
i approve

Why thank you. That's so nice. :)

Daaaaam they got the biggest marching bands drum line right there

Yeah and it's all for one drummer.

Oh he'd better be switching to timpani mallets for those timpani
Drumsticks should never be used on those

Well I'd tend to think considering all the gear he got, that he didn't forget those.

Ok good

lol So glad you approve. :)
