For those of you who didn't know...I can't play drums for a little while because I tore all of the ligaments in my thumb.

I start physical therapy tomorrow. So I hope that gets everything fixed quick.

So I won't be on stage for a while.

Heres my question: Besides being loaded up on painkillers and drooling on my desk at work all day...what can I do to pass the time?

Drink lots of water, enter a thumb wrestling tournament with your good thumb, and sell me the painkillers, so I can drool on myself.

Just a thought, drugs are bad, you don't need them, go with a natural healing, it'll make a better man out of you.

you can still play...just put the drumstick in between the middle and index finger. It's rough but eventually get used to it...you can atleast play...as far as being accurate with playing i'm not so sure about. You could always play with your feet man? lol Might be interesting but it could possibly work just as well? haha let us all know!

Duct tape your arm to your side and start a Def Leppard tribute band.

Drink Beer

Masturbate

Get on rockpage and talk mad shit.

Pretty much what I do except for the DL tribute band. It's not a bad life.

Learn To play like Def Leppard.

I once broke my right ankle and got so bored i rearranged my whole kit and learned to play kick drum with my left foot. I also tried out for a band like that and got the job. It can actually make you look at drumming different ways. Just a thought.

Ligaments are a bad deal, make sure you dont overdo it if your going to play.
