I forget where it came from, but K asked me about the reputation of drummers.

I started with the irony that the band's timekeepers are often tardy, and went to the "What do you call someone who hangs out with musicians? Drummer." line.

And then I explained that drummers are doing different things with each hand, and they're counting with far more precision than most people. I'm a guitarist and the idea of limb independence baffles me. I marvel at good drummers.
