Put the biggest subwoofer you can find in the sewer. Find where it resonates for that house.

I truly hope they could not pay the drums well. I want fucking amateur hour on the drums. That shit will make anyone go insane.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Or swing the opposite way. Some sort of super talented prog-rock drummer.

[–] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

All night drum battle between them both.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Drum lesson.

Portnoy's probably got some free time on his hands.

[–] paperazzi@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

So many options to keep it fresh.

I wanted to play drums as a kid, but that was a hard NO from the parents.

I ended up being a musician, but I'm still a frustrated air drummer to this day.

We could use you! Join the band!

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 1 points 2 hours ago

I'm bad enough at guitar to be effective!

[–] saltnotsugar@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Do they need a trumpet player? I never learned the trumpet but I can toot.

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 6 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

We need a wanna be bag pipe player.

I still got my recorder from elementary school. Will that help?

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 9 hours ago

I would 100% drag out my amp and guitar and fucking shred alongside this dude.

“AND MY AXE!”

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

Get some vuvuzuela going as well.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 9 hours ago

Some Ornette Coleman-style Free Jazz would be fun.

Impromptu concerts are a classic form of protest. It doesn't even need to be bad music. It's about showing support.

for anyone interested in picking a lane:

  • rap: here, specifically, is how america is fucked
  • punk: I'M MAD AS HELL AND I'M NOT GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE
  • funk: they want to see us sad, but i refuse to be
  • bluegrass:

in 1872 my pappy was born on the coal fields of eastern kentucky. his mother loved him even though he didn't look a thing like his daddy. his daddy loved him too. he looked just like the mine boss. you see back then the only way to make ends meet was for the woman of the family to supplement the income of her husband with sex work. but they loved him for being their son regardless of what he looked like. but i swear to fucking god, if i ever meet that sumbitch James Donald Bowman i'm going to break this goddamn banjo over his fucking head for reperpetuating my suffering by pretending to speak for me. because i love jesus, and that's what jesus would have done. he whipped bankers, afterall

Bagpipes need to represent.

[–] SupremeDonut@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

All the players need to be amateur at best

This next little ditty is written by a certain mister Ice Tea. See what I did there? Anyway here’s Cop Killer…

[–] Speiser0@feddit.org 23 points 1 day ago (5 children)

I don't get it. In germany, where I live, it's illegal to make noise at night, so they'd just get the police.

[–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 44 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Apparently the police were there. With their sirens on. To make noise. Lol.

In germany, where I live, we also have the freedom to assemble. if two rights collide, the answer is not always easy. A quick google gave me an example of people comlaining about a noisy midnight demo, and the police stating that the freedom to assemble overrules the right of quietness at night. Of course the police is not the final judge of this, but at least it shows that things are not as clear cut as you make it sound.

In America, they'd probably just tell him to get rid of the drums, and arrest him if he didn't comply. Maybe.

There's about an equal chance they just bomb into there, throw him around, destroy his drums, and drag him to jail, and leave his busted up gear behind to get stolen.

Depends entirely on their mood at the moment.
