Hey, Slice and Dice! Welcome aboard!
What kind of music do you play? I'm sure some of our buddies will give you other ideas, although jackdrums' suggestion about the database will point you the right way!
Later on, mate...and
keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!

For new age stuff, listen to Breaking Benjamin's new album Phobia.
Their drummer made some amazing beats and fills in the album. They've really helped me alot.

GOD + Me= Awsome Drummer!
try to learn the moller technuiqe and master double pedal[if you have one ]
GOD + Me= Awsome Drummer!
i find lessons limiting, self taught , you can't explore different technuiqes,grooves ,styles,etc..

Lessons are limiting on purpose. They utilize discipline so that you can stay focused and learn the particular exercise fluently. There is always free time in and around formal lessons to create on your own.Originally Posted by Metal forever
well discipline is key, you only learn what they teach you, like for instance, lets just say you take'em to get your juices flowing, if your technuiqe is right and all that stuff, they always, no matter what level[almost], strat you from from the begining even though you've already mastered the stuff yourself. get what i'm saying or no?

Metal, that's a generalized statement that I would disagree with. Not all teachers start students at the beginning. I taught for many years and I would start a student where they needed to be started. If they had the fundamentals down, I would start them with more challenging things. I also tried to mix it up to keep it interesting for the student.
That said, some students think they're better than what they are when they come into lessons. They underestimate the knowledge and experience of the teacher and they don't trust the teacher to guide them appropriately. I had many students that thought they were good but they had many flaws. One of the biggest was not being able to play double stroke rolls properly. It takes awhile to get this down and some students didn't have the patience to work on it (the basics) to acquire a clean roll. I came to learn that "discipline" was one of the major stumbling blocks for many students. They wanted to play a complicated, fast 32nd note fill around the drums like I did, but when they realized it meant starting from the beginning to clean up their double stroke or spending hours speeding up their singles, they didn't want to put the time in.
