I have a real hard time, just getting a drummer to stay on the Billie Jean beat, a beat that is sucess in the real world. I guess it's because I'm a drummer too, and love straight simplicity, even Copeland knows it, but embellished out of boredom, but not lose the basics.

Hey Jim, you name it! That could not be repeated and said students enough! By the way: just 30min. ago we used also some figures out of your book "Survival Guide for the MD" (everybody should have :-) to prepare a BigBand Chart for a High-School Christmas Arrangement. Thanks for sharing... cheers Markus - Drummer from South Germany

It really doesn’t. Of the song needs more from you, play more! I’m not saying play simple always, I’m saying hold the priorities of the song over your own.

Preach it brother! Can't solo entire songs! 😂 I used to get a lot of love from the melody writers when I would simply hold the song together, throw in some half time they didn't realize the song needed for a particular verse, or, bridge, sometimes, double time, just not often with that one, etc... Be good to the song, don't shine until there's a proper space for it!

@@joemorris143 first of all this is not just for drummers, it’s telling everyone what it is I do and what it takes. Having said that, a vast majority of drummers do not understand this concept which is why I hope this messaging helps them get to a place where they are a more marketable musician.

El detalle o problema es que la mayoría de baterias ya vienen construidas de fábrica con el bombo perforado para poner el clamp y los dos toms sobre el bombo obligando a poner la bateria en el centro por que si lo pones en la posición que tu la pones en el video los toms quedarian muy lejos

If I had a time machine.......I wasted my time shedding wood in college and never made the move. Music Row shrunk, iconic places like OmniSound is a distant memory and so is the magic of 90's Nashville. In time, there won't be a need for the craft of music, thanks to A.I. and corporate greed. To sum up Nashville today, would be Silvertown Blues by Mark Knopfler...

Good video Jim. Ergonomics is key. However, as always there's a trade off. In my case with the kick off axis like that compromises the floor tom(s) moving them more to a 4 o'clock/5 o'clock position. Also the 10" / first rack tom at the '11:00 position lends itself to the traditional grip player more. Totally agree with starting at the drum throne and closing eyes and visualizing where things should be most natural. THAT varies for all of us. Some fine players break the norm i.e. Jeff Porcaro played in high heeled cowboy boots yet sat very low!? Jack Gavin amazing player over the years has had some very untraditional setups. Ride cymbal high and vertical with a smaller crash directly under it. Wont even start with Billy Cobham's rig.. Good video, good subject, good discussion. Keep em coming
