im always told that but honestly i play drums to enjoy them, and i enjoy them most playing hard so why change?
got 2 scars on my face from hitting myself with drumsticks, blisters on my hands, broken wrist hitting it off my tom, thumb gives me trouble now and then if i go too hard on it, which i do a lot, and...
things are always easier when there's no stress from it haha
a post on one of the threads here got me thinking, i dont remember who but he w2as saying about a little trick he does to play fast notes on the bass pedal where the first hit is normal and on the...
i thought it was stupid at first but thats cause in the beginning i was fit anyway and wasn't exactly over stretching my muscles but as i improved, got faster etc stretching is a god send haha
sounds a lot like your positioning at the drums is the problem then, experiment with the set up as much as possible to get that comfort where you dont slide off pedals and its easy switch. work on...
it could be a few things, maybe the pedal is too tight
are you sitting in a proper position, your legs should be at 90 or more degrees when your sitting at the drum kit cause i find if my knees are...
think thats too much practice, unless you've a aerosmith long amount of songs i doubt ye'd need as much as they say. you'll find the band becoming stale and boring with too much practice
cant wait already!!!
id say certain nirvana songs, i wouldnt consider nirvana acdc easy to start with to be honest. but someone said weezer earlier. perfect choice
vater, vic firth and pro mark is the way to go
pretty sure its the playing too hard part, never had technique problems
i learned both guitar and drums around the same time, i had been playing guitar 6 months before i started drums and ive been learning both since. ive never found them to interfere with each other or...
i meant to give an example there, the song vasoline by stone temple pilots? tried learning that on my own to little real success but playing it on the game, seeing what is hit, where and when its hit...
i think you've hit the nail on the head here, yes its not the same as the real thing and yes it might throw off a beginner and make mthem pick up bad habits but i had been playing drums for a year ...
i forget what drummer said it but i know he was a well respected one, he said you've to learn how to play back in black before you can be playing a dream theather song. think that sums it up really....
people who what rock band is yes? the game for the playstation 2 and 3 etc? where ya drum with 4 pads and a pedal? you do? just checking haha
anyway i was just wondering did any one here decide to...
jimmy chamnerlain too, just listen to cherub rock by smashing pumpkins. nobody would do it better
great examples of your rudiments are the intro to stay away by nirvana, thats a paradiddle played really quick, for flams listen to in bloom, the chorus has flams where he's hitting the snare or toms.
nobody mentioned Dave Grohl!!! even though he doesnt really drum much theses days he's easily my favourite and the reason i took up the drums.
the josh freese one isnt a light stick to be honest, its not metal heavy but not 7a light either
what i mean by cutting up is there's patchs on my hand where the stick is that the skin comes off so theres like a hole where skin used be haha. like for instance at the bottom part of your fingers...
no not at all, in fact a vic firth metal one which was much bigger and heavier did more damage to my hand, im thinking its more to do with how the wood is finished
ok so im sure you all get cuts and blisters from the sticks playing drums, its natural. but i've always wondered why is it my right hand that gets cut up, and it gets up up a lot haha, and not my...
I practice upstairs above my parents supermarket. its in the middle of the town and people are always asking me who's the drummer but never complain. weird haha
