What sticks do you use ?

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Hi, thanks for watching! Usually Dave Grohl Signatures by Zildjian or Vic Firth Extreme 5A (using the Vic Firths here). Cheers!

[@BenTipler-dj6hu]

Hi …my music has a crash on 1 for pre-chorus section then 7 one bar repeats if it only applies to bar 1 of the section why doesn’t it say first time only….? Is this a printing error, which is correct please love the videos ❤

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Drumming convention is that a repeated bars of a groove that featured a crash at the start don't include the crash (unless it states that you should). Because this is what you'd most commonly hear in music. Cheers!

[@heresbutler]

If dis grade 1 i regret picking music 💀 😩
