Learn how to drum on trash cans from the MIT Live Music Connection!  We are so excited for the 2nd rendition of TCD, where you will fast become a stick twirling, long-haired, face-melting, solo-crushing, jam-exploding, drumming phenomenon.  Well, most likely.  What we can guarantee is that, if you have a basic musical background (and even if you don't) you will get a solid primer on drumming technique, rhythm, jamming, and even collaborative writing - all on authentic steel 31 gallon trash cans.  Genres will include inspirations from: jazz, rock, funk, hip hop, r&b, and music of the Senegalese persuasion.  Have no fear, we've done this before: http://bit.ly/LMC-TCD2012-Show

Join us - we've got some sick new instructors that have signed on as well to help make you groove like you're ulna is on fire!

There will be a wait-list when more than 16 people sign up.
