Drumming Through Lisbon: A Session in the Rain

Lisbon's got this vibe... kinda like the first hit of a drum solo, all sharp and unexpected. I just checked and it's... there right now, hope you like that kind of thing. 15.2°C, feels like 14.53°C, pressure's sitting at 1029, humidity's doing that 67% thing. Feels like the air's got that crisp bite, like a drumstick straight from the freezer. If you get bored, Sintra's just a short drive away, with its fairy-tale palaces and that whole 'enchanted forest' vibe. Someone told me that the underground jazz spots here are so tight, you can hear the snare drums echo through the alleys. I heard that too, from a guy nursing a beer at a tiny bar near the river. He said the locals there are like a second family, but watch out for the guy who plays the accordion - he's got opinions.

And if you're hunting for gear, https://www.yelp.com/biz/music-store-lisbon is supposed to have some vintage snares. Oh, and the Mercado da Ribeira? That's where the real magic happens, according to someone who looked like they'd been there since dawn. https://www.yelp.com/biz/mercado-da-ribeira-lisbon. The city's got layers, like a drum kit waiting to be played. You just gotta find the right beat.
