The drummer in Q block yesterday

[silvercue]

if you don't think the drummer is tight enough, we could go for a drum machine. Lots of modern outfits go down that road these days.

And there was me thinking it was down to us playing poorly when all the time it was down to us fans being misled by an imcompotent drummer! I cannot tell you the relief I feel. And I know you're not joking about the coffee, and I bet you say "can I get...." instead of "please can I have....."

now that cheered me up!

[Connell10]

We need that American high school band that played at half time years ago

(or a better drummer)

Seriously, listen out for out chants dying off next week when the drummer bangs way too fast on random notes. Then you can all share my pet hate!

i tell what mate this is the best thread in months! well done, its really cheered me up! just brilliant and im not taking the pish!

Man, listening to that & the chants were just creating themselves. We could be the talking point of the global football community. We could get a pianist in too.

Nearly every thread on here lately involves deepcut and his frigging choice of newspaper,

Still, at least it distracts from the football

I thought you read the guardian whilst driving your Range Rover mate?

So we have a go at the one person who is trying to get an atmosphere going?

you must be avin a larf. Far more important things to worry about like team performances for one.

I wish we had the noise of a Blackpool had last season, because we are very good dishing out loud abuse at players which is really going to get them motivated.

The atmosphere we have is practically non-existent and forget about Loftus Road being a fortress. The only game we exceeded that was against Chelsea, which a game we coincindently won.

Loftus Road has become an easy place for opposing players to play at even more worryingly we get outsang time after time by away fans. We used to match teams with vocals but now we are even allowing sets of supporters from Fulham to outsing us.

Good on the guy who bangs the drum, at least his trying to get fans singing.

I can't keep up with what I'm supposed to be tbf.

Ask vblock, he's got a list somewhere...

A totally unbiased perspective

Geng wasn't suggesting he stops tbf, more that he gets better.

Before anyone starts on me, I'd be happier if we didn't need musical accompaniment, but we apparently need something to get us going...

[Ginger Ninja]

I appreciate the enthusiasm, but please, stop.

I can't see too well from the paddocks, but I don't think it was FreeSeat - someone on here must know the guy?

A drum should be used to maintain rhythm. The guy yesterday was hammering away on every singing note, with sporadic stops and starts. He also drums way too fast. We don't need to chant at a million miles an hour.

Several times yesterday PQR blocks started off a chant and the drummer killed it off by hammering too fast and with no rhythm. It's really hard to maintain a good chant when someone is drumming badly over it, or at least in a different time. At Swansea away this season their drummer very effectively ruined our chanting momentum several times simply by playing a different tune with a big pounding rhythm.

I really do appreciate a good drummer. But let's get some lessons for our guy first...

You have to be on a wind up surely...

I was just thinking the same thing mate!

Pete,

Good for him, indeed. I really do appreciate the effort and the balls required to do this, and I like things like drums etc to get atmosphere going.

However the drumming on saturday actually had a negative effect on our chanting. Constantly killing chants just as they were getting going. Weird tempos that made it hard to join in.

You should dust off your drumsticks and get back to Q block...
