Learning to play percussion well is as hard if not harder than learing to play another instrument.

I am a percussionist and have recently had someone tell me that percussion is the easiest section in the band to play in. I was very appalled by this and told him that he was dead wrong. For one, percussion covers multiple instruments, including snare, timpani, xylophone, and other auxiliary instruments. Not only do the xylophone and timpani require you to be able to read music in both the treble and base clef, the snare requires you to be able to play complicated rhythms that one would not norm...

'Quote Battles' are not debates.

http://www.Debate.org/debate/7214/ They do not argue or discuss; therefore, it is not a debate. Debate-a regulated discussion of a proposition between two matched sides http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/debate As we can see in an example of the 'debates' I have in mind, they simply throw out quotes. While this is relevant to the contention, they do not argue why their quotes are better or funnier. In this manner, this is no debate....

No E's Allowed

TheSaint

Both sides of this debate must write cohesive 1000 character stories without a single use of the letter E. If either side uses the letter E they lose and should be voted against in such a manner. For example: "Mary had a little lamb." would be grounds for disqualification due to the E in little. "Mary had a small lamb" is acceptable. Also, misspellings cannot be used to circumvent the rule. "Mary had a littl lamb" would also be grounds for disqualification since the E is implied. Quite ob...

I thought this may be fun. Whoever has the best music wins. You may only put one piece each round.

Bioshock is a work of art

FourTrouble
SeelTheMan

Bioshock is a survival horror first-person shooter video game designed by Ken Levine and developed by 2k Boston. The game plays off of Ayn Rand's novel Atlas Shrugged: led by Andrew Ryan, industrialists, artists, and scientists have retreated from the world and built Rapture, a dystopian city at the bottom of the Atlantic. When the game begins, however, the city and its citizens have been c...

Avatar, the motion picture directed by James Cameron, is an AWESOME work of art. My opponent in this debate disagrees with that assertion. Avatar is awesome for the following reasons: it is a huge creative achievement because of its theological, philosophical, social, moral, cultural, technological, existential, and other themes; because of the quality of its visual effects and related technology; because of the attention to zoological, linguistic, geographic and botanical detail, and othe...
