About three months ago the boys and I visited Music & Arts to pick up music for one of my piano students. James always gravitates towards the drums and on this day a worker and I had to sort through several boxes because the book I needed had just arrived. So James took the opportunity to wander over and start banging on a drum.
Another worker was sitting in the store just messing around on one of the guitars. So James went to the drum set by him and started to hit it. He has really good rhythm and starting keeping a steady beat. At third worker said he could sit and on the stool and that he should have some drumsticks.
Now James was really jamming out and because his beat was so steady the worker playing the guitar starting playing along with James' tempo. It actually sounded pretty sweet. James started shouting "We're in a band, we're in a band!" "I play the drums and he plays the guitar. We're a band!" It was very cute!!
Of course my first inclination after this was the run out and buy the kid a set of drums, but Taylor convinced me otherwise until we have a room to actually put them in. Personally I think he was just trying to spare his own ears.

How does he know about bands?! What a little smarty-pants.
I love how the drums are bigger than he is.
Age 3 and already jammin'! Now that's impressive. We still working on patty-cake over here. :)
