Do you'll every get thrown off by someone whose playing the tambourine extremely loud and off beat, Then you got a army of kids with tambourines? I can tune it out on the keyboard but I'm a beginning drummer and it horrible. I think there should be a screening process before someone come into the church with a tambourine. It just feels like I'm in a preschool with a bunch of infants with tambourines.
-
That's hilarious! It's a pet peeve of mine as well. But I've learned how not to move the tempo no matter what someone else is doing though. Metronome.
-
lol, that reminds me of the breakdown on Hez' "Clean Inside" on the Toronto album. The tambourine player got so off that the drummer had to come back in. :D

Just start counting out loud and focus on your time!

you dont think people would look at me funny counting out loud? 1 e & a 2 e & a 3 e & a 4 e & a. I scared I might lose the spirit for someone doing that! ;D ;)

Would you rather go off time and sound like you suck? ;D

I've been playing tambourines since the age of 7 and at this point in time, I can truly say that I can give ANY drummer a run for their money. On time, on beat, on tempo and if it's a tuning tambourine, on sound. Yeah, sounds crazy huh?? I've trained with the best and you learn how you play WITH the drummer.
Now being in church so long you see the best and the WORST of them. Some folk should be arrested for the way they play.... but they'll defend themselves with Psalms 150:4

Man your arms must be huge! Mine hurt after 5 min of playing that thing! In the studio Ive had to play it on some tracks and I was like DANG! God must have made someone who can hold this thing up and play it!!! ;D
-
Oh ya. A screening process would be nice! I have plenty of horrible Tambourine players in my church!!! Problem is, they think they are good! oh man.
I cant say that they throw me off, but they just aggravate and annoy me. Especially when they lay down a completely different beat than what I am playing! I know where you are coming from. Learn how to block it out. you have to. One way is practicing more and being more confident in your playing.
God Bless.
-
never im foucousd when i play
-
I personally just ask them to stop.

I ask a 12 yrs old kid to stop and he told me I was a sucky drummer anyway! That I should stick with the keys. lol!!!!!!!
-
the worst is trying to record yourself somewhere or a video of your choir/group and someone allllll in the recording/video - ching a ching a ching a ching------- oooooooooooooo >:( that gets me heated
-
I've found a way to beat those horrible tambourine players...
I put down my sticks and started playing the bass. lol since then, I don't really "hear" the tambo player anymore ;)

Yo, this is mad funny!! ;D But I feel ya, the church should pass out applications, license or something to play the tambourine... I have a few professional tambourine players in my church..the kind that throw the tambourine in the air and catch it behind their backs. They can also throw it under their legs and catch it and play on beat...Mad funny... ;D Stay Blessed, Nate J.
-
man this is funny ive got this pet peve too.... i say if you can play it play it.... if you cant those of you who dont have one, take it from the kids who dont know how to play
there are these two kids at church and they just beet em to death... off beat for that much
so we have been in revival so we got there early and i took about 3 of em and hid them behind the piano... no more playing off beat for the next couple services
and i agree too some dooooo need applications to play the tambourine!!!

wow......

hahaha, there is some truth to that sarcasm. Our church had 4 drummers at one point and I was getting very little seat time. Our bass player was getting worn out since he was the only one doing all the services, special events, funerals, etc and I could play a little (at the time) so it was a win-win.
I still miss rocking out on the set though :(
God Bless,

-
Maybe LGM should open a tambourine room! :)
-
Dont tell my mom...shhhhhhh... but she can throw me off so easily. We have a bongo player that do the same thing....
My advise is to TUNE IT OUT!!! lol... I know that is something you heard before, but trust me... When you can concentrate more on what you are doing and focus on the drumming, and less on that tambourine player, the better off you will be... As a musician we all get faced with distractions... But we have to tune it out. Me too, even when it is my mom...lol... :)
-
We don't have a lot of tamborine playing in my church, but we wo have these 2 sisters that play MARACAS!! Those things are ANNOYING!!! They sing in the choir and shake those blasted things ALL SERVICE!!! It gets on my nerves more than it distracts me and throws me off. Sometimes i just want to throw my sticks at them and make them stop!!

How about a tambourine shed. ::) Or even a tambourine workshop. ::) Then they could learn how to properly apply those annoying little devil instruments that call up evil spirits! If you cant tell...I hate tambourines. >:( ;D

Devil instrument...lol.... lol...

I like them when played properly.
I actually have a mounted Rhythmtech model on my kit setup. I like that funky feely that comes from playing it in the right spot. Lot's of motown hits were made because of the hihat part. See the Funk Brothers documentary - Standing In the Shadows of Motown.
Now in church though I don't like the kids having the tamborine at all. They disrupt my flow.
-
i like tambourines when they are hanging up in the store.... no where near sister canataloupe when she is gettin happy.

I have members that I like to call "TK" (tambourine killers). No matter if its regular size or the kid’s size, if they get to one, you better believe it's broken before the service is over. Those TKs be hitting to hard. One time, this one member hit it so hard, the cymbals went flying everywhere. People had to duck for cover. LOOK OUT!! :o :o :o
