      Someone’s just jealous they’ve got only one instrument and they have learn how to read music.

          Can’t hear you over the sound of doing nothing for 2 minutes playing one note on the crash cymbals and then not playing a single other note for the rest of the song.

              I have literally caught my partner playing a rhythm in her sleep, perfectly in time. Percussionists are wild and untamed, but they’re also always there for the show, they’d never miss it. And they’ll keep everyone else in time, but no one wants to admit the power they wield. Eldritch beings.

      Nah, a percussionist would be holding the glass with two fingers, striking it with a triangle mallet, and then swishing it around in circles for vibrato.
