Beginner Drummer - Week 1

[@808drummerpercussionist9]

NO right or wrong, I have played be ear all my life, no notes, reading, counting, paradiddle etc.....small town, had so much fun. I listened to the music then played it, worked on timing, tempo, volume, when to go loud when to tone it down etc...hard rock 60's, no tutor or teacher in my small town, my friend asked me to play, told him i never did. it all started there. for 7 years I drummed rt handed. A drummer saw me play and said you are a lefty, I said how did you know? my hands were not crossed, lf hand on hi hat, rt on snare, I now play left, and my hands are no crossed, I feel better playing on a lefty set up. 1 tip: down beat base 2x, then 1x snare, slowly then increase speed, then to the opposite 1x snare then 2x down beat bass. so many songs have this beat. Have Fun on your Journey. just subscribed
