AHHHHH! someone help!
ok I having alot of trouble going from one beat to another to start off this song:
S /xxxx/xxxx/xxxx/xxxx/--x-/--x-
FT /xxxx/xxxx/xxxx/xxxx/----/----
HH /----/----/----/----/xxxx/xxxx
B /----/----/----/----/x--x/x---
Does anyone have any tips to help me out with this?
(sorry about the format I can't do tabs)so x just represents hitting that drum.
I've got the beat down fine but I just can't get down the transition between the two diffrent beats.
also the song is called "uncle milos side show"

hmmmmmm....ok i'm gonna rewrite what you did so i can understand it better.
hh|--------------------x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x|
sn|xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-----x-------x--|
ft |xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx----------------|
bd|--------------------x-----x------x-|

Looked around for the song to try tab it out myself, but I couldn't find it. What band plays it?
What tempo is it?
If you have the tab, all you need to do it sit down and nut it out. As far as I can see the fill and then the beat that you go into are pretty basic. Just practice the transition between them, and you'll have it instantly.

ITs from a Jazz band book.

Ohhh... Well in that case, I can't help you.
The way you've tabbed it out, it just looks like the fill at the start is in quarter notes. Then it goes into a simple half time feel (Snares on beat 3).
Am I right?

ok on floor and snare its sixteenth notes for 4 counts
then for the rest of the song its hit hats hits for 16th notes with snare on every third and bass on every 4 and 1
I just can't get the transition down between the two beats.

So something like this?
HH|----------------|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx|
SD|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx|----------------|----------------|
FT|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx|--------o-------|--------o-------|
BD|----------------|o-----------o---|o-----------o---|
Am I right?
What tempo is it played at?

Tempo? I think its 120 but it doesnt seem right.
thats exactly what i mean. I m having trouble going into that beat and then hitting the bass drum fast enough to continue the song.
-
The bass drum is your problem?
I'd be more worried about the hats. Just keep practising the transition between the two beats. You'll get it eventually.
