What is percussionist?
A band kid, usually either really hot or really weird. Or both. (Stay away from those ones)
PERSON I: Ooh, look! That individual of indeterminate gender is really hot!
PERSON II: This is true. Though while I am forced to agree as this individual is, in fact, very hot, I must add that it has come to my attention recently that this percussionist is also considered to be of the weird nature.
PERSON I: Yes, you are quite correct. How unfortunate that we must now ovoid this weird, hot percussionist.

Percussionist - what is it?
The buff guys whomst job is to stand in the back of the room moistening the panties of the rest of the band. This is of course when they aren't sleeping or watching Netflix behind the bass drum. Mr fitz is noticebly biased against him because he isn't mentally capable of understanding the ways of the double stroke roll like the superior percussionists are.
Fitz: it's "drag, drag, drag flam flam"
Percussionist: how would you know you never played snare
Fitz: my brother did and he's an example of why this band needs to get their act together. You guys talk way too much. The judge said we should play harder music but I'm obviously more experienced than him and I know we need to play 7th grade music again
What does "percussionist" mean?
You stupid percussionists, stop touching my ass
Percussionist - what does it mean?
The professional asshole of the band. Cymbals, the grunts if the section, are responsible for getting the higher caliber percussionists' stands and music. Snares, the drive of the section, hit each others sticks out of their hands, turns off one anothers' snares, and blames the cymbals for mistakes. Likes hitting rimshots as loud as possible even when not appropriate. Quints or Quads, have the biggest egos of the section and tend to boss everyone around. Also Bass Drums. Who really just serve as targets for the Snares or the Quints' sticks.
Percussionists-Snare: Cymbals! Stop fucking around and get back on beat!
Quints: We are so great that we dont even need a director. All other instruments are inferior.
Cymbals: Pancakes!
Bass: STOP HITTING MY DRUM
Percussionist - meaning
People who play percussion. Mostly tend to be guys. The most important, talented and smartest section in a band. Have to be able to play multiple instruments (including but not limited to: snare, bass, tympani, cymbal, triangle, tenor, chimes, piano, xylophone, etc.). Usually tend to be very sexy, and have HUGE dicks. A lot of the time are very cocky, are have lots of self confidence, high self esteem, and can be dicks sometimes.
Look at those percussionists, they're SOOO hot and talented
Percussionist - definition
A person that plays percussion. Percussion is a section of a band that that keeps time or beat, but can also help carry the melody. A percussion instrument is defined as any instrument that is striked or hit. A percussionist is a drummer in a band that can play many different striking and hitting instruments of rhythmic and melodic natures proficiently. A percussionist does not have to be able to play every instrument available all over the world or be perfect at each instrument, but should be proficient enough in a good number of isntruments. How good a percussionist is is not measured by how many instruments they can name or play with mediocracy but by how many instruments they can play well. Most importantly, a percussionist not only can read the beats as most percussionists and drummers are stereotypically said to read, but a true percussionist also reads music. Such as scales and triads and notations and octaves. No percussion can name all of the percussion instruments out in the world because the numbers are exceedingly high. Some examples of percussion instruments are as follows but are definately not limited to the following. Marimba, Vibraphone, Xylaphone, Bells, Chimes, Wind Chimes, Snare Drum, Bass, Drum, Tenor drums, Timpanis, Cymbals, Temple Blocks, Guiros, Gongs, Congas, Bongos, Timbales, Toms, Cabasas(Also known as Afuches), Ching Choks, Claves, Caxixis, Rain Sticks, Shakers, Maracas, Ganzas, Kokirikos, Shekeres, Acheres, Guatacas, Barbells, Tambourines, Cuica, Talking Drums(that's actually the name of a drum), Repiniques, Pandieros, Caixas, Malacachetas, Steel Drums, Djembes, Cajons, Darbukas, Doumbeks, and Cowbells.
I dragged that list on for a long time just to give you an idea of how many instruments can called upon as a percussion, and jsut how hard it would be to name them all. And that list is still not a limit to all the instruments out there, and all those instruments listed and the others each have their own technique to be played with, and their own sound.
Also and finally, there are other special effects or coloring instruments such as whistles, that are considered a percussion instrument but do not strike or hit. It is not technically a percussion instrument but is used all the time by percussionist. Another disclaimer is about pianos, bass guitars, and electric or acoustic guitars. A piano by definition is a percussion instrument because inside the piano, there are metal beaters hitting different lengthed bars to make notes, making it a percussion instrument, even though you press the keys to make the function occur. Keyboards are not always technically a percussion instrument because not all keyboards use a striking method, but they are consider percussion instruments anyawy because they are so closely related to the piano. Bass guitars, and Electric nad Acoustic guitars, even though they are in rhythm sections of the band, they are not percussion instruments because they do not strike or hit.
A percussionist is not to be confused with a drummer. Knowing what a percussionist is now, a drummer is someone that only plays the drumset or can only read beats or rhythms and not music.
Percussion instruments are used in concert bands, symphonies, percussion ensembles, marching bands, and in churches and rituals.
Percussionist can play for a hobbie, for a living, a side job, or a even a charity.
People are not musicians or percussionist because they can't get a job or make money or couldn't go to college, but because they have a gift, and those with the gift will continue to use their gift to the fullest ability, and play the instrument they play because it is difficult and takes a special skill that not many people in the world can master.
Wow, he is a really fluent percussionist, he can play so many different striking instruments fluently.
Percussionist - slang
A guy who pretends to be a musician, and always wants to jam with them, but who can't be bothered to really learn to play anything real.
What do you call a guy who hangs around with musicians? A percussionist.
Percussionist
A more technical name for 'the person who plays percussion'. Stereotypically male, but the females shud never b underestimated. Percussion instruments include (but are not limited to) Glockenspiel, Marimba, Xylophone, timbalis, kettle drums, timpanis, crashed cymbals, tambourine, bongos, congas, granite blocks, drum kit. Although some people think that guitars and keyboards are percussion, they are NOT. Keyboards, guitars, and bass are part of the rhythm section of a band, but not part of the percussion section. Drum kit is counted as a percussion instrument. The percussionist(s) is/are usually the coolest section in the band.
Flortist: Hey look at that percussionist, he's very rhythmic isn't he?
Pianist: You just think he's fit/
Male Flortist: Oh yeth darling, he's truly marvellous
Pianist: He is good though. What would we do without him?
Percussionist: Well if I left, there's always the hot female percussionist who could take my place
Note: Female percussionists although rarer than male, are always hot. And when I say always, I pretty much mean, always.
