    Default I was just wondering...

    If a drummer plays the drums in the woods and nobody is there to hear it, do the drums make a sound?

    Well if there's a drummer there playing it the drummer doesn't have to be a human it could be a drumming cow, then the cow hears it so therefore it does make a sound!

    Not if it's an electronic one. Unless you've brought your generator with you. Or a very very very long extension lead.

    I just wonder how could any drummer want to play without being heard in the first place!
