One of our neighbors is learning to play the drums. You probably can't see it in this picture, but his drums are right by a window, a window that is usually open. He's not very good, but dedicated, because he plays all the time.
His favorite thing to do seems to be to play a live CD of, say, the Dave Matthews Band, or even some live jazz, and play along, I assume imagining he's in the band. At first I wondered why he always plays along to concert albums rather than regular ones, but I think it's because this way, after each song, he gets to hear the crowd cheer him on.

This is exactly what Nick Andopolis (Jason Segel) did on Freaks and Geeks.
