Dude, all the dragons will be at the taiko concert. Just pack up and go home.

Mickey Dolenz took the brown acid at Woodstock.

He used to be a member of Dragondrums, but when he came out as a geisha, they sacked him for being insufficiently metal.

Well, he fancied himself a true virtuoso musician, and, in truth, he was solid on sax, vivacious on vibes, forceful on flugelhorn . . . but he was a real drag on drums.

Yes, life is tough for musicians. The endless string of clubs and bars, difficulties forming truly meaningful relationships, the bad pay, the bad food—and of course the ever-present temptations of drug abuse. How many tragic stories have we read of brilliant musicians who find themselves with the proverbial “pterodactyl on their backs”?

♫ I don’t want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day
I don’t want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day ♫

The Gene Krapa Story
@BC6 – I think that’s called “chasing the dragon”.

I know McCaffrey collaborated with just about anyone in earshot but… Gary Glitter?

It’s that classic episode where Lucy disguised herself as a dragon to join Ricky’s act at the Copa. Babalu aye!

I’m pretty confident they don’t have Hawaiian shirts on Pern.

@Fred: whoa, that’a one of the very best Daiko vids! To reciprocate:

fun starts at 2:00, they are good.
As for the cover, come on, it’s nicely rendered at least… my main objection is that questionable vest. A “fashion disaster” tag maybe?

DragonDrums. Looks and sounds like a Renaissance Faire act.
May 20th, 2019 at 7:04 pm
Never mind the drums, what are his soufflés like?
May 20th, 2019 at 7:09 pm
The shoulder-crawler should worry. DragonDrums may be on the menu.

That’s life as a Dragon Drummer for you: beat the Dragon Drums all day in your best Glam Rock outfit, and all you get is one teeny dragon below the weight limit you have to throw back. At least it’s good exercise (he’s taken the belt in two holes since he started).
@B. Chiclitz: GSS!

Very glad my school library had this groovy cover instead. http://www.isfdb.org/wiki/images/6/6b/DRGNDRMSNM0000.jpg
Isn’t this guy a smidge too buff to be the character, IIRC? And way too glam and improperly dressed — check out how badly the claws must dig into his shoulder. IRL there’d be blood running down those biceps.
@BC (6): Or maybe you explained it — no blood b/c he’s hallucinating.

“who’s got two sticks and a pair of killer dragondrums? This guy!”
May 22nd, 2019 at 1:20 am
That guy has quite the happy trail.
May 22nd, 2019 at 4:37 pm
After 3 years marooned, he made himself a set of dol-drums to pass the time. His neighbors promptly arrived to shut him up.
May 22nd, 2019 at 10:57 pm
@Tracy: I noticed that too, since it’s rather odd he has no chest hair to go with it.
May 23rd, 2019 at 2:10 am
@Tracy@GSSxn—RE: lack of chest hair—Maybe it’s not a happy trail but a chasm of some sort. A fjord? Volcanic fissure? Is that a wisp of gas about to escape? Or perhaps he is about to give birth to another one of those things that’s on his back.

@BC: an impending hatching eruption might explain the look on his face.

@anon: I like that Anne Mc’s blurbage is so (in)famous here that she doesn’t require anagramming.
The last line explains the cover.
