NO HOW and LEGIT DRUMMERS

Hello,
I would like to know the meaning if this NO HOW here:
' ... because these trumpet players are classically trained and they don't like to miss no note NO HOW'.

'These marching LEGIT DRUMMERS can't solo because they have no musical imagination to improvise. Like most other classical players, they play only what you put in front of them'. Here it refers to drummers trained in a classical tradition?
Thanks in advance, Jo.

no how. Slang. Not in any possible way, not under any possible circumstances. no how indicates absolute and emphatic negation.

They don't like to ... no how = They absolutely hate to ...

legit drummers. legitimate drummers. Yes, trained in a classical tradition to read music.
