    I think that means starting on beat 1. It took me awhile. It's still hard for me.

    I think he means "Crabbing" or "Crab Stepping". Which can be tough until you figure out how to do that without banging your legs on the drum!

    Yeah, he probably means crabbing. That is basically marching left or right. The rest of the band turns their lower body in the direction they are marching, we face forward. It's pretty much just side stepping.

    Pretty easy right? Believe it or not I had a buddy on the tenor line with me in high school who had bruises all over his legs from crabbing!

    LOL......been there / done that . It is harder than it looks , theres a big difference once you have tenors or tri-toms harnessed in front of you so you cant see where it is you are stepping ..........but in the end , well worth the aggrevation .

    Crabbing is really awkward at first, but I've never had any really serious problems with it. I know my friend got some bruises from it once, but he didn't have a huge problem with that. It get's to be as easy as forward or backward march after a while though.

    I've never done it, so I guess I should consider myself lucky to be playing crash cymbals this year.

    Cymbal players can just turn their lower half and walk normal. As long as their facing the crowd. With a drum on your waste you cant really do that. Ive seen many of injury to Freshman new to the art of crab.

    Well, the way we crab, as far as I've seen, we just walk sideways with both halves facing the crowd, so we do grapevines.
