Admittedly I have zero music or artistic talent. That’s why I admire others who do.
Always a good student and athlete, my sole venture into music was inspired by this scene from “Wayne’s World” (1992).
Somehow I persuaded my mom and dad to let me take drum lessons and buy a drum set. My natural coordination and ability to “beat the shit” out of things were my only “gifts.”
My musical “career” was short lived as my mom got tired of the banging down in our basement. So I ended up concentrating on football from middle school through college (I was an All-American linebacker) then getting my Ph.D. a few years later. Still, I wonder what might have been… Sigh…
Best YouTube quotes:
“I think the fact that I really love this scene is because Dana Carvey actually plays the drums.”
“No fucking way, you left out him saying ‘I like to play’.”
