Okay, I go downstairs and see my mother with this incredibly pissed off look on her face. I follow her down to my room because she has to ask me a few questions...
My little brother, the ADHD asshole skater punk kid from Hell, has one of his gay skate cult friends over and he tends to be even more destructve than normal when he has friends over. As his story goes, he took his friend Doug down to my room to see my new drum set. My father said that he asked Ethan if he got my permission to be there and Ethan said that I told him it was alright(he didn't even ask me if he could go into my room, thereby he lied to the Canadian). And there was some damage done to my new drum set.
Soem parts of the hi-hat came upscrewed and there were some deep dents in the head of one of the toms, plus scuffs on the heads of the other one and the floor tom, done by yours truly after some intense drumming earlier today. I got semi-bitched out for that, which was kind of weird... being in trouble for my own intensive drumming. But go figure. I guess all they care about is the "damage" done to the thing that they spent $400-some on. But drum sets are supposed to get beat up, right. The entire purpose of these things are to make music my hitting them intensly and repeatedly with sticks.
But there was also a small hole in the head of the bass drum. Now, according to my brother, he found the head of the bass pedal lying a near my drum set, and the hole there already. Which would mean that, in my drumming, I'd have had to have pounded the bass drum so hard and fast that the nut of the bass pedal came unscrewed, the little washer-like thing flew off and the head itself also flew off, and I continued to hit the bass drum unaware of the fact that it was just the bare "screw" of the pedal hitting into the bass. And then I would've gotten up and walked away from my drum set unaware of any of this.
My question is... how likely is that to happen?
It doesn't seem to have done any damage to the sound or the condition of my drum set, and, like I said, drum sets are there to get beat up. And, since my brother is the evil destructive little Hellspawn that he is, my parents are more likely to reprimand him for being in my room without my permission, abusing my possessions, being a stupid little asshole that everyone hates, etc.
Okay then.
