That bouncing blue ball has an impeccable sense of time

[@krapiak]

blue ball lmao

[@nicholasbaggsworth2157]

This comment extended my watching- just to see the blue ball.

[@pesosgouda8223]

bouncing blue ball is one of the best musicians of this generation

[@abe22891]

Once again Drumeo has shown me how to take my drumming to a new level, thanks guys!

[@johnpartington5910]

Sid Mello that comment sounds like someone who works for drumeo made it

[@elic307]

I just discovered ghost notes and it's great. It upgraded the sound of my drumming. Thanks to all the folks out there with these great lessons :-)

[@radioflatland]

That comment on feeling the ghost notes and locking in to each other as musicians on stage is one of the most important comments ever. Thank you!

[@EternalListener]

I am actually learning how to play the drums before i even get my drum set, thank you internet, thanks Jared!

[@augustburnsred3541]

haha no you are npt

[@EternalListener]

I've been playing for some months now thanks to these videos, hang in there August

[@augustburnsred3541]

+EternalListener wtf you on about m8. I've been playing for two years on an actual fucking drumkit lol

[@EternalListener]

M2 bro I GOT ONE! Keep it up \m/

[@jay8819]

August Burns Red it is possible to learn theory with out a kit. so "wtf you on about m8"

[@skillfuldan]

"Drop the stick" best advice for ghost notes.

[@lobbyrobby]

I'm a beginner drummer. One of the first lessons I saw was to hold the sticks loosely. I'm always dropping my sticks and I'm not even talking about ghost notes lol

[@simonedmondson8875]

[@michaelb.42112]

As a bass player, I know and love ghost notes but never knew what it meant on drums. Now I do. Thanks ! I always loved the sound but didn't know there was a name for it.

[@UndergroundMusicProductions]

This video is greatly appreciated, thank you for explaining this and demonstrating the differences.

[@UndergroundMusicProductions]

So ghost notes have less velocity than your regular hit or punch at a lower volume.

[@williew705]

Great vid! I'm a lifelong guitar player that tries at drums from time to time. I'm trying to nail the groove in 100,000 Years by KISS and the ghost notes are a must.

[@righteousrat]

Just came across this technique in The Best Beginner Drum Book from you guys. Every new concept I come across in that book, I like to youtube to get an audio example of what in learning. I've heard drummers do this and wondered what the hell it was! Now I know.

[@ambroulard]

There's a simple way to vastly improve your dynamic feel that a great teacher in Detroit taught me a long time ago.. he insisted I play nothing but notes between these dynamics for two weeks on my pad and my kit----- PPP-P, that was all I was allowed to work with and boy did that alter my playing in a super good way--- try it today, I still do this occasionally for several days at a time ----

[@kackaurban6028]

Can you describe any further what's PPP-P please? I'm still not very familiar with those terms haha

[@ambroulard]

@@kackaurban6028 Piano to Pianissimo are dynamic markers-. P which is piano is very quiet with each added p indicating the note or notes are played even more quietly.

[@m_r__r_o_b_o_t]

This guy is a great teacher

[@joshcarroll9302]

This is super helpful!

[@poeticsun645]

I bought a drum kit a week ago, this is really helpful to a complete beginner

[@mamtatewary8419]

Jared you rock

[@PEARTIAN]

Love it- and your upbeat ( no Pun) presentation- ghosts and rests are so important

[@jociasrinon4991]

drumeo is Great God Bless you!

[@ShawnTh-]

I was 3 months old when this came out 😥

[@rodrigocampo9014]

Thanks for everything... 🥁

[@themarioshow177]

I still don't know how to count properly, but that didn't hinder me from learning how to play this. Very helpful, thank you.

[@yawti1416]

Amazing teacher

[@tswanson23]

Awesome lesson ! Can someone please tell me the difference between a snare note on the third line and one in the space , I keep seeing them written both ways . I'm confused lol

[@vivelehardcore]

nice i just discovered i am an intermediat drummer! lol thank jared

[@leninpaily]

Excellent explanation, thank you sir

[@giuliopoli69]

very clear, bravo

[@Underview]

Really nice job.

[@sovereignsjust]

Where do you get your shirts, bro? They're badass.

[@Aviyaytor]

Thank you for the lesson!

[@spoddie]

@Kudan26 bass players should only play about 2 notes per measure?

[@mikepolushin2583]

It's Great, Thank You #Drumeo !!!

[@yinxin97]

Hi, this is indeed a great video! However, may i know what software do you use to make the drum notes/score? :) Your reply is much appreciated!

[@chrisc7265]

came to learn drums ended up learning about ghosts

[@musicaetudo1]

Great lesson !!!!

[@MrFreeindian88]

Love the reddit shirt!!

[@SteelSquishy]

no dislikes, thats right. u guys rule

[@sivanandadas4761]

Thankyou sir.

[@MozezVanHelgen]

a little tip for those who never played this before: first you should practise down-up/up-down strokes cause u get more feeling with that ;)

[@FlyboyHelosim]

I always assumed that ghost notes were those kind of skipped notes like what he does in that opening piece he plays. What are those called?

[@chaneppchannel_365]

Yeah ,Thank you.

[@xkillaxskillx1]

hey Jared, i know you must get this alot, but what do you use as a personal kit? because im kind of a newer drummer and im stuck with my dads old ass kit dont get me wrong it sounds good for what it is and it holds its weight in the band but im saving up alot of money and i would like to know what you (the best expert im aware of) use for yourself

[@lens8933]

thanks a lot !!!

[@quattro4s]

I am not believing in ghosts either. Nice video

[@alliezheng7684]

thx!

[@x3cerealkillerz]

Came for the ghost notes, stayed for the meaty kick drum

[@Drummer885K3vinRios]

Do they have to be done with paradiddles or without doing the paradiddle?

[@Upturnedlemur]

Wot?

[@MS-dz1di]

Paradiddles are a totally different thing. For example RLRR LRLL.

[@Aviyaytor]

Someone forward this lesson to Lars Ullerich. I hope he can keep up.

[@scummy666]

Sorry. He can't.

[@HETFIELD]

There's ghost notes in Thorn Within from Load.

[@Barek666]

Ullerich?

[@JacklandInc]

Jared, you are so great. I never feel patronized when you teach the easy stuff, which is really important in for a teacher. Good job! That said your jokes are rather rubbish in this video xD

[@GhostRider-hy9zt]

I know this comment is 10 years old, but I agree. I feel good when he teaches stuff, he's amazing.

[@jessielsabado7522]

Next vedio please. I'm from the Philippines.

[@ametdarbe]

Jared Falk's is one of my fab channel. And also I subscribe drumeo channel

[@hobelgoblin4724]

what are these beats called? I love those smooth half time beats with the nice ghost rolls on the snare but I am having trouble finding it because I don't know what I should search for

[@anthonymaloney6838]

Nice tutorial. That undampened snare is driving me nuts though.

[@noahmusicnz]

the sidechain compressor on the kick is driving me nuts

[@SnipeYouFromMars]

Ghosts are not real so that means this video is illuminati

[@sakshamshrivastava9749]

SnipeYouFromMars chutiya Hai tu..

[@slarkel506]

We definitely need to be protected by God from the Illuminati, they are more dangerous if we do not stand in the light

[@gabitoooolj]

👁⚠️

[@angieedwards9720]

When I was dropping the stick low, my notes were still too low for it to be more felt then heard. I was taught a ghost note is more it an upstroke tap. Anyone have any comments or clarification on this? Was I just dropping too high? Should there be more control with the stick to tap rather than drop? Does it not really matter as long as the note is ghosty? 👻

[@thebreifcaseman269]

I can play the last one but I put a kick at the end instead of a snare. But I can't seem to do the ones that come before it 😂

[@tyweed736]

Who’s watching in 2021?

[@spoddie]

As a bass player, I don't like drummers playing ghost notes, those are my beats you're playing on.

[@ajg1233]

spoddie get over it m8 XD drums are the heart of the band so it's kinda necessary to do this

[@kalamay]

Motherfucking hard this ghost note technique is.

[@nciccantelli]

you remind me so much of Brann Dailor lol

[@LiLSahil174L]

nciccantelli 😂😂

[@BongChongy]

Lol I thought the same

[@spoddie]

@skistar70 nah, there's never been a clever drummer. Some think Don Henley was clever but that's because they compare him to Joe Walsh.

[@laynefuller]

Huh ive been doing ghost notes the entire time never knew they had an actual name

[@EpicurusWasRight]

So are ghost notes just the notes that make up a drum fill?

[@MS-dz1di]

No. A fill is mostly played on the toms...

[@Drummer885K3vinRios]

I’ve working on my ghost notes but can’t seem to figure them out. Any help?

[@realeyesrealizereallies1176]

By accident I used to play ghostnotes and always thought I played sloppy/offtime/too lose grip. Now I know its not.

[@terrariman]

TY! :3

[@s3fernando96]

Playing with traditional hand gives me way more control so I can play ghost notes gracefully like they are ment to be but its difficult to play fast. Thats the reason jazz drummers play with traditional and metal drjmers play with matched.
