This summer, the PMC will provide over 700 free five-minute drum lessons during Vans Warped Tour 2018.

Every summer we bring free drum lessons to the masses at selected Vans Warped Tour locations. Percussion Marketing Council and local music retailers will bring the self-contained Free Lesson Lab Tent to ten cities on the popular hard rock tour.

Local percussion retailers help staff the Lesson Labs. Drummers from Vans Warper Tour bands will be stopping by the PMC tent to help generate excitement and awareness for the project. Each tent is fully equipped with an acoustic or an electronic drum set, including cymbals and sticks, to provide a positive and professional learning experience for all first-time players.

Post photos and videos from the lesson lab on Instagram with #PlayDrums to be reposted and featured on playdrums.com.
