How do I get started playing the drums?

The first step to getting started playing the drums is to find a good teacher or mentor who can help you learn the basics. You should also purchase some basic drumming equipment such as a pair of sticks, a snare drum, and cymbals. Once you have these items, practice regularly with your teacher and gradually increase the difficulty of your exercises. It's important that you take your time and focus on each individual aspect of the instrument before moving onto more complex techniques.
