Today Seth has tried to play drums for the first time with a really nice and great drummer who were kind enough to take some time and show him a little bit. He will also be Seths drum teacher when we have bought the drums for him;=)
Seth really thought it was so fun and he was really good at keeping the beat so maybe there is a drummer talent in there, who knows?
After the drum lesson, Seth and me went to the music store and tried out a pair of Yamaha d-drums since we cant have a regular drum set, living in an apartment. While there, I bought a new microphone cable and a keyboard cable to my studio equipment. The microphone cable we had was broken, but now we´ll hopefully get some sound going;=)
Now time for some story telling before my weight exercise. Today I do upper body and my stomach;=)
I think it's awesome that Seth wants to play drums. My boyfriend is a drummer. The only downside is the constant tapping on everything! lol Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteHi Anette!
ReplyDeleteMaybe Seth will be the next drummer of Nightwish =)
I'm happy that he likes to play drums, music is very important!
Have fun =)
Lucy
I'm glad your son is going to play drums =)
ReplyDeleteI did for a whole year. At the beginning it was not that easy but you manage to do some nice stuff after some hours. However, my teacher was not the coolest, hope Seth's will be nice with him!
All the best for the family!
Lucinda
Good luck Seth with your drums lessons! I think we have a new star here! ;)
ReplyDeleteJust like his mum! :)
Have a nice evening! Enjoy
Marija
Wow! So nice! :)) I wish Seth good luck with his new instrument! So soon you have another drummer in your family! ;)
ReplyDeleteSpeaking about drums, you reminded me about the Nightwish concert that took place in Romania in 2009.
ReplyDeleteHere are a couple of photos from back then, that I took during the concerts at the festival - http://ioanafilipas.blogspot.com/2009/08/artmania-2009.html
There are some with Nightwish, and also one with you performing with Pain :)
Sorry for the poor quality, but I was not allowed to bring a professional camera to the concert.
wow amazing!! good luck to Seth!! ;=)
ReplyDeletethank YOU Nettie for giving us the chance to enter the raffle! ;)
have a beautiful day!! <3 Misha.
Good evening Anette,
ReplyDeletedon't thanks us. Thanks to you for this competion! I have to tell there are so many people have joined at it. I'm glad to read that Seth liked the first drum lesson. You had a really good idea to buy it to him so he can exercise with it. I think that in the future is he will play well, if he likes it and if he engage himself he of course become a really good drummer. In his family (i mean you and Johan) are all musician, so he will. :)
How many days per week will he takes the next lesson? Let know us how is going in the net day! What are d-drmus?
Enjoy you evening and take care!
Big hugs
Hej dear Anette!
ReplyDeleteI wish Seth much fun with his new drums and that he will be a great drummer soon! Maybe he will be a second Jukka in the future? ;-)
I soo admire you for doing your sports-programme every day! How do you keep yourself motivated? I´m so not able to conquer my weaker self... Arrgh...
Have a nice evening!

Good evening Anette !
ReplyDeleteGood luck to Seth ! =)
When I was around 7-8 yo, I wanted to play drums, but my parents never agreed... So, I chose guitar.. But I still want trying drums one day =P
By the way, I heard today on youtube Ghost Love Score @ Paris... Whaou... I almost cry... Anette, you're a really great singer ! This version of Ghost Love Score was just... so perfect !
Take care,
Amandine
Hi! Sweet that this is the first day he played ;=)
ReplyDeleteI even can see Seth's - at least I think he is- reflection in the "drums mirror": the drums bass.
I guess he is Seth wich is taking the pircture ;=) I can see a blonde kid with short haircut....and it was you cutting his hair, do I rememeber?
You were nice letting us join the contest this simple way;) and also this is how you will receive lots of more entries I believe. Because ANYONE can partecipate.
Take care now!
Lots of kisses and cheers from Poochie
Hi Anette!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds great! And even Jukka can give him some helpful tips :D
I'm sure Seth will be a professional very soon, it just takes practice and if he likes it, it's easy as pie!
Take care, sleep well :)
César
What little boy (or man, for that matter) doesn't want to bang away behind the kit at some point? I think it's awesome and I hope he sticks with it! ~V
ReplyDeleteAnette, some time ago (end of the year maybe) you told us you did an interesting deep interview and that it would have been ready sometime in January.... ??????
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Wow!! I respect a lot the drummers 'cause is so hard to try to move all your body and coordinate it !! He must be a great guy!!
ReplyDeleteGood look Seth!!
I will try piano in the summer I already play keyboards but is a little different to play piano or that's what I've heard...
As Jukka once said the drums are the instrument of Gods!! Jeje
Hugs and love
Clau =)
My brother is a drummer too, he has a thrash metal band. He says drum is the most fun instrument to play! I'm glad Seth is interested in music :)
ReplyDeleteHugs,
İlknur
@ trisha6623 - My brother does that too! Only instead of being a drummer, he plays the bagpipes. He always has a pencil in his hands and "plays" songs on them.
ReplyDeleteAwwww i love drums!! i wish to seth all the best, drums are just amazing!.
ReplyDeleteNettie i have a request for you, can you give us exercise tutorial or tips? I would love to know how do you stay in shape =).
Regards from México
Luu.
Hey Anette!
ReplyDeleteThat's cool Seth is liking this drum thing!
He may have music talent inside indeed. It's kind of in the blood hehe.
And being brought up by musicians and among musicians ends up raising a passion for music...wasn't like this with you? hehe
kisses =*
Hi Anette and thank you for holding the raffle and giving us all a chance :))
ReplyDeleteI have two teenage kids one a composer/guitarist (going on to study music at Uni) and one who has just taken up the drums. She has to practice 30 mins per day! as we also live in an apartment I just ask that they dont play later than 8pm to spare the neighbours heehee no complaints so far! Seth is so fortunate to have a musical family and good luck to him with his drums (and other future instrumental experiments) You are a very cool Mum :)) Have a grt day Lee
good evening anette!i am glad that seth learns drums!good luck

It's really good that Seth is keen on music and drums are great instrument. So I wish him to became the best drumer and good luck with the lessons :)
ReplyDeleteTake care

Hi Anette:
ReplyDeleteI bet Seth looked so cute behind those drums! Always great to start an instrument young, I started playing flute at around 8 years old- played it for around 20 years now, scary thought!
You always mention you like reading things by fans etc, if you want to here is a link to an interview with me about the work I do in the Nightwish community, some fans may like it too

Take care- hugs

Good morning dear Anette,
ReplyDeletedid you splet well tonight? I hope yes. :)
I was thinking, you sing, Johan play the guitars and and Seth the drums... perfect band!! Ahahahah What do you think about it?
Have a nice day!
Hugs
Poochie: Yes, that portrait will be out month later so february 14. It will not be published online, but I am getting the paper and will take photos of it for you all to read. It´s 10 pages;=)
ReplyDeleteAnette: wow. 10 pages! Amazing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info...I'm gonna post the great new on AOC ;=)
Dang, that's an indepth interview! Can't wait to read it!! ~V
ReplyDeleteWow, I can't wait for the interview. I'm sure it is going to be amazing :)
ReplyDeleteGood that he likes it! Hope he learns fast. take care
ReplyDeleteGreat that we're gonna read an interview. I'm really looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a good choice to let Seth play drums. The earlier he begins, the faster he will be good at it.
I wanted to learn how to play drums, too, but 1. my family didn't allow it and 2. I was informed by my doctor that I have a problem with my back which makes it impossible for me to play such an instrument like drums. I can't sit for a long time without getting bad aches.
Now I play the keys, and I think it isn't that bad. To be honest, I love it ;)
Good luck for your son, and all health & happiness to your and your whole family, Anette!
Näkemiin,
