Description
Hello world, my name is Rob. I'm 34 years old and new to LA from NYC.
A couple years ago my friend passed away, leaving the world with one less rock drummer and thus one less source of rock drum joy in the world. To try to rebalance the universe I decided to take up that mantle and learn how to play drums.
Back in May I found a rinky-dink little practice kit from a garage sale for a few bucks, pulled up a few youtube lessons, and started bangin' away. I've made some progress so far, and I'd like to start playing with other folks to keep this stone rolling.
Here's a sample I took on my phone of me messing around - it sounds like it was recorded in a prison at the bottom of the sea but if you're able to power through that it should be an okay example of where my skill level is now that I've been playing for 6 months:

So if anyone out there needs a drummer, has a bit of patience/sense of humor, and wants to help in my ongoing effort to make up for the missing positive drum vibes my late friend would contribute to the universe, drop me a line!
I've played bass in rock bands for years, so I'm no rookie when it comes to playing with others and playing live. My learning curve is just getting comfortable with a new instrument. I live by myself in a house in south LA and could host folks here, or I'm able drive to a practice space that has a kit.
Thanks!
Rob

Also, whenever I've posted to craigslist, no matter what I say I still get one or two dick pics, so just in case there's any confusion - please don't send me a dick pic. I'm sure it's lovely and I'm very proud of you, but why not just save that for someone special.
