He can drum if he wants to, he can leave his friends behind. Cause if his friends don't drum, and if they don't drum, well, they're no friends of his. Weeehell ...

Is it the safety drum?

No deal. The octopus drums, the dolphins do backup vocals.

Make him play the triangle and just watch him not know what to do with his 6 other tentacles.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Nah, you gotta put the triangle on a stand for extra confusion

  • Two arms holding and playing the triangle
  • Two arms folded in annoyance
  • Two arms standing as legs
  • Two arms secretly playing the violin behind his back

Good news! Voyager, a prog rock band from Australia has an underwater video with no octopus in sight.

No other creature is capable of such gnarly polyrythms though! Not many undersea creatures can even hold the sticks. Some crustaceans could maybe play percussion but not the whole kit.

A school of tiny fish that individually run into each drum for individual beats, machine-gun style

As long as Terry Crews plays King Neptune... I'm in!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Obviously they are meant for the electric harp. Is that real, I don't know and I don't care because this is an undersea rock back and I'm here for it.

Danny Carey will always play the drums.
