    I used to program electronic music and play live keyboard until I wrecked my hearing on stage.

    I picked up playing drums 1.5 years ago and love it. I’ve been teaching drums for almost 2 months now at a music school.

    Drumming relaxes me a lot, it’s a good workout and even with my impaired hearing I can still play them.

      Hopefully you’ve picked up some ear protection since then! Drums are loud AF and if you’ve already got hearing issues, drums will make them worse. +1 for Loop earplugs if you need some.

        Don’t worry,I learnt from my past mistakes. I’ve got solid ear protection now and also wear earplugs for all concerts I’m attending.
