Rob started to play the drums at age ten after seeing an Aerosmith concert. His mother knew Joey Kramer, Aerosmith's drummer and was able to go backstage and see the entire production. Rob also plays the piano. When he was around thirteen, Bourdon played in bands with his friends. It was around that time he met Brad Delson, now the guitarist for Linkin Park, and they played together for about a year in a band called Relative Degree. Before playing drums he played piano and still does when he gets the time.
