Rimshot Rants: "The band says your drums are too loud..."

“The Drummer’s Dilemma” – When the Sound Guy Delivers the Message

Every drummer knows this moment. The sound person leans over to the drummer and says, “The band says your drums are too loud". Meanwhile, towering behind them are walls of massive guitar and bass amps cranked to eleven.

This comic captures that classic onstage irony — where the drummer, often the only one playing acoustically, somehow takes the blame for the volume wars. It’s a lighthearted look at the eternal tug-of-war between drummers, guitarists, and sound engineers.

If you’ve ever been in a band, done a soundcheck, or just stood near a full stack, you’ll feel this one.
