I once shared a few special hours in the company of a drummer and a bassist. In my honest opinion.... The guitarist was the most intelligentist.

IMHO, I guess some drummers have a better perspective of the song structure.... amazing how the style and general flow can dramatically alter the feel of the song (for good or worse)

Steel guitarists are the smartest. Not only do you have to operate both hands and feet and have an incredible ear for intonation but you also have to have the skills of an aircraft mechanic to keep the instrument operating as it should.

Karyn Apart from cowbellists 
I was at a garage sale last week, a drummer walks up with drumsticks in one hand and a really old beaten up cowbell in the other hand. I said, are you selling those really cool drumsticks? {Drummer abruptly says} NO, no way, here... take the cowbell instead, please, you can have the cowbell, its yours. So I respectfully offered $2 {but the drummer abruptly says}... NO, I don't want your money, just take the freaking dang cowbell. Okay, okay then {ahem}... may I ask why you seem so desperate to get rid of this old antique cowbell? Drummer very frustratingly and most vehemently repeats over and over.... ||: because more cowbell is never enough, its never, ever gonna be enough :|| rpt indefinitely  {oh boi}

If they were really all that smart, they'd play an instrument that was easier to carry.
 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

I'm confused. Was that a study or a quiz?! And is it the only one I'm going to get, cause if so, you left out the most important part that was supposed to tell me how brilliant and special I am.... I am.

Scientist in a lab coat: "Wait. That's a typo. I said they were fatter than everyone else." Drummer: "Do you know the difference between a scientist's skull and a cowbell?" (...Hollow smack followed by a thud as a body collapses...) "Me neither, but I know who's smarter than a scientist."

I always keep a pair of drumsticks in my car. That way I can put them on the dashboard and park in the handicap spots.
