hi
Hi! Hi hat, also spelled hihat are cymbals played with a foot pedal. But I'm sure you knew that already.
yes i knew already
They are different than clash cymbals, which are played by holding them in each hand and, well...clashing them.
no idea
Alrighty then! Well, I like cymbals. A pretty common instrument. Do you play any instruments?
not particular
I used to play the drums. I had a trap set a really long time ago. A collection of drums played with sticks made up my drum set. 
yes i have drum sticks
Do you like Phil Collins? He's an English drummer. And he sings and wrights a lot of songs as well.
