Jojo Mayer: Secret Weapons for the Modern Drummer

[PositivelyBored]

Could be wrong. :)

I do know that Jojo Mayer at 9 years old was better than most kids these days at 19 years old. ;)

Beside his left cheek; he's got Big Ears as well.

More than a fantastic drummer.

An integral Musician.

my father played and I have also been playing since I was two. what he has told me is that around 3 and a half is when I could learn and start playing well keeping up with him.

Jojo Mayer is a great drummer, if not one of the best of all time. But been playing since you're two? C'mon, I mean yes he may have beat a drum at 2, but I want to know, especially with guys of this caliber, when did it start coming together?

Buddy Rich was playing professionally at 1.5 years old, started at 6 months.

@PositivelyBored professionally at 1.5 years? thats just not true

[PositivelyBored]

@thomascompton800

Perhaps, but this is from wiki. I was going off of memory when I said that....

" He began playing drums in vaudeville when he was 18 months old, billed as "Traps the Drum Wonder." At the peak of Rich's childhood career, he was reportedly the second-highest paid child entertainer in the world (after Jackie Coogan).[3]"

I'm pretty sure he was performing in a circus act, or something like that, at the most 3 years old but it was likely younger.
