* FOOL IN THE RAIN * DRUM LESSON * LED ZEPPELIN

[@tricky92x]

I woke up today and watched the Fool in the Rain drum track and thought to myself... jeez, I'll never be able to play that. Then, I stumbled upon this video, and I was playing the main pattern tightly within 30 minutes. I can't thank you enough. You've made my weekend! You broke that pattern down beautifully. Great work.

[@marianella2551]

tricky92x lmao same

[@au77iemark]

Same, but the hi hat bark took 3 weeks 😂

[@kawabungadad8945]

This is the best break down of the shuffle I've ever seen.

[@bonzoleum]

Thank you, KB!!!

[@girlspooptoo8567]

Vladimir Poutine Yeah this guy is really great at explaining stuff. I don't know why but he just gets the way I think

[@drummoe9191]

1000% agree

[@PhilDourado]

@@bonzoleum Yeah, me too, agree this is the best I've seen. Brilliant explanation and showing how to do it. Thank yooooouuu! 👍👍

[@mrjericho5701]

This guy is so cool, make a great teacher

[@robertbruno9478]

Quite frankly I don't understand how anyone, especially a drummer, doesn't like this!

[@vickilabriola2323]

Nobody doesn't like Bonzoleum aka Terry Keating!

[@drewgibson16]

Bruh, this is the best tutorial I have ever seen for this classic tune.

[@bonzoleum]

Thank you Andrew! Please subscribe if you might!

[@Woozler554]

This is the best guide I've seen to playing Fool in the Rain.

[@bonzoleum]

Thanks Wooz!!

[@travlynn08]

You are an instructor extraordinaire. A teacher with great style and patience. Please do not stop.

[@Hagfan789]

I've learned more watching this video than all of my music classes combined. Thank you sir.

[@hubertpilk]

Dude I really appreciate your videos the way you broke this one down is perfect I'm 62 years old I've played in nightclubs casinos all up and down the West Coast but I got to tell you something man I've never had anybody explain something as clearly and precisely and simply as you just did

[@bonzoleum]

Thanks Hubert-glad I could help-stay well my friend!

[@kmr2ube]

This is great. I'm a beginner and just wanted to get this groove. I tried tabs and a couple of other videos and it simply wasn't "clicking" for me. The way this is broken down just worked for me. Starting with the One and Three beats helped me lock in the main rythym. From there it was easier to build up. (Also, I learned that counting --- even in my head, -- with "one-trip-let" "two-trip-let" ... throws me off. But adopting "one-n-a" "two-n-a" works fine. (Hey, I said beginner!) Thanks for this lesson.

[@jamesbell9011]

Thanks for ALLLLL that you share with me!!! You are a great teacher!!! You ROCK!!!

[@bonzoleum]

Thank you, James!

[@Drpepperdrums]

Bonham was such a genius. I was inspired to play drums by him. I miss him still.

[@prajashankarpatage6135]

Same here I love him ❤

[@michealrieck977]

We just finished Babylon sisters Bernard Perdie I'm next is fool in the rain,you couldn't have picked a better to play this is next Tues when we start working on fooling the rain, I'll have a good portion of this down, Mike da plumbr, drummer!

[@markjohnson6483]

I know absolutely nothing about playing the drums, but I find myself listening to his videos, they're fascinating. So, thank you?

[@mattigrooves7843]

I like this guy. His lessons are really easy & simple to pick up. Uncomplicated. Great Drummer too !

[@MrPitbull357]

I always enjoy your videos because you take your time showing us Bonham fans how to master an awesome shuffle or groove. Keep on rockin !!!!!

[@johnsonset]

This guy is the best Laughs and a lesson Double shot😂😂😂😂

[@bonzoleum]

Thank you John!

[@wahooworld]

Accurate, fast immediate breakdown of this shuffle, I had it by 3:40. He avoided needless chatter that many do which I find to be annoying and pointless. This is the best lesson on how to play this drum part. thanks

[@jamesbell9011]

Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge...YOU are a great teacher!!!

[@MartinWalkerGuitar]

This is the best breakdown of this song I have ever seen for sure thank you thank you!

[@katalmlie8715]

My fav! I mastered the Bonzo shuffle by playing this song over and over and over. You're explanation is spot on! I've tried to explain the Ghost/grace notes to others and you made it sound so easy. It's hard for folks to grasp grace notes if they have never tried them. :)

[@firelane2190]

not alot of jews left in the camera

[@theodore738]

I don't know why but this really made me laugh lol

[@kodytourelle7790]

firelane didn’t he say... not a lot of juice left in the camera.

[@jg7551]

Kody Tourelle it sounded like jews though that was the joke

[@johnjames4593]

Not alot of camera left in the jews

[@deadshot4245]

must have Sennheiser mics on it

[@nathanwalker1262]

thank you for the very clear and simple explanation to this beat. been trying to figure it out for years. after your video i nailed it in about 45 mins. thank you!

[@pobrichi]

It's like a Hemingway novel; lots of simple things coming together to create a great complexity.

[@willpalladino5599]

Drum teacher here. Heard this song a million times and never picked up on the ghost notes. As a metal guy, this is a lot tougher than I expected. Saw your Porcaro vid and figured this would be easier. Nope! Haha Great stuff keep it up.

[@bonzoleum]

Thank you, Will!

[@buzzfry1960]

I've watched a few other people try to explain this beat but out of all of them I like the way you do this . Thanks

[@toddtempo8614]

I like this guy, easy to understand.

[@pabloagustin6439]

I’ve learned a lot from you it’s so easy to understand thanks and not boring

[@bonzoleum]

Thanks Pablo!

[@robnandroid]

Best fool in the rain tutorial Period! Thankyou, wouldn't have had a chance of learning this without this video

[@CRC780]

Amazing breakdown! Thankyou so much!

[@beng4151]

What an amazing beat. A brilliant, beautiful song.

[@MarkAnthony5150]

Terry thank you so much my friend for literally breaking this down huge help. You're a great drummer and teacher thank you again

[@alexandretavares949]

you are like, the best teacher online

[@mickb9678]

that wallet used to belong to George Costanza. saw it on Seinfeld. that is one superb breakdown terry, thanks!

[@dudleyscott6266]

Holy crap. Nice breakdown. Guy is talented. I am lost...lol...

[@keithrowe7617]

You sir, are quite the drummer yourself!

[@rocksnob3]

Great Video! I had trouble with the original-finally got it-and now have this one. Thanks so much for putting it all together. Your vids are really helping me after a 20 year hiatus from the drums. Yes, 20.........Thanks again!

[@markbarneburg]

Thanks for breaking it down into digestible bits.

[@bonzoleum]

Thanks, Mark!

[@b.please2986]

A fantastic lesson, wow!!! I sat with this video for a couple of hours today and you really helped me count out the timing and basically learn the whole song. I'm having trouble with the last grace note against the high hat timing but I'm going to work on it until I get it. Thank you for taking the time to make this awesome video!!!!

[@luispereda3398]

Was trying to learn this rhythm and you definitely got it thank you for your info you're great

[@terminatorx2545]

you are a nut but a very good teacher!

[@alancarver2511]

The exit at 11:06 was very clean. Good job.

[@skuhlman2665]

Terry you are an awesome teacher. Thanks for breaking this down. I've been playing triplets around one on the kick (actually starting before one). In addition, and a, on the 2. Its a workout for sure. I didn't catch the triplet on the HH. But it is so smooth and clean there must be something more going on, so I figured it had to be a combination of grace notes and a little more kick to create that, as you say; "Train a comin'" sound.

[@bonzoleum]

steve kuhlman Thank you, Steve!

[@tommykimberlin7528]

by far the best video on this beat

[@thecoochmon112]

Awesome explanation of how to breakdown the song, thanx.

[@FrankHotdog]

You give great instruction man.

[@hometownrocker1]

thanks for the video, I like the way you explain the beats while at the same time having lots of fun.

[@otiswallace796]

Just awesome 😎

[@jemmace2586]

That is one locked in rendition of the great Bonzo's Fool In The Rain'. Well played, a little belated, still...

[@OliverPage7]

Si tuviera una bateria, sin duda aprenderia con tus videos. Muy buenos!

[@SargentRay]

Jesus i like watching (over and over again) this video. I don't know if i'll ever be able to play it but it's surely fun to understand just what's going on with the drums in this iconic song. I should go visit and shoot a video with you one of these days. Never travelled i my life but i would love to see Chicago :-)

[@aferguson850]

Cool! I never new there was as much involved in drumming - even the light hits. I'm not musical at all but this is fascinating!

[@andreasdurrschmidt5321]

Halleluja, thank you for this wonderful lesson. Best Wishes from Munich / Germany.

[@jabezdiocares3200]

this is probably one of the most hardest, frustrating beats im trying to learn, thanks for the help

[@not_lavaaa129]

Awesome lesson man, got it down pat in 2 hours

[@drumavidcheckupz4792]

Thank you so much. I had to transcribe it first but what you said was just enough for it.

[@tvseller1]

Like this guy a lot. Great teacher and funny!

[@jerrybishop2115]

Bro i love your breakdowns of beats by bonham and the very best ive seen by far👍.. Fathful subscribed here❤😎👍

[@justinandrews5084]

Great Job! I learned a lot and I'm not even a drummer...part writing Thank you so much...I'll keep watching

[@peterportelance9804]

YEP ! RIP BONZO ☝💙 U Know Bro 😎.👍 THANK'S 😉 Awsome Vid 😆👍💝

[@kenamay]

Thank you so much! My band wants to do this. You're a great teacher. thanks again..

[@NailBombEnjoyer]

Such a great lesson

[@gulflossconsultants5715]

Dude, excellent lesson. Thanks for this 🤘

[@stevek758]

You're Awesome Buddy thank you... It shows how dedicated you are...

[@Zippypeepee]

may the rock god bless you and everything you touch

[@michaelkennealy1659]

I'm not a drummer, but I stumbled across your videos today and am hooked. I also grew up in the Chicago burbs at the same time as you, and love your stories (they're way too familiar to my own:))

[@001pmats]

I'll be at your level soon thanks to your videos

[@elpueplo]

thank you so much for helping to understand Bonham easier for me... you are the best! (not just for this video, all of them are so helpfull for me) and because of you; now I'm practising "Fool in the rain" 3.30 in the morning :)

[@bonzoleum]

umit isbilen Thank you, Umit!

[@elpueplo]

bonzoleum you're welcome :)

[@davidholdridge5873]

u always have the beast lessons

[@brianrushford4057]

My favourite song from In Through The Out Door,thanks

[@bonzoleum]

Thanks, Brian!

[@comidachinahuskys2]

Awesome video, made it wayyy simpler to learn

[@bonzoleum]

BTW: it's a shame the outtakes cut out right at the transition. It would be neat to hear the drums following the fast roll back into the verse music.

[@josephraquepas5921]

Awesome lesson! Many thanks!

[@jonnybeag887]

this is the best tutorial on youtube explained really well and you have a really cool voice btw

[@looklogan]

OK Bonzo Bonham, dont make it look so easy. lol Very tight drumming!

[@cx4800]

Hey Terry- You're camping with me now! !! Decided to take a drum lesson and it started sprinkling, so I guess I was a Fool In The Rain! - Excellent video, as usual! Thanks._ Jim

[@RockLee679]

Love the channel, love your energy and charisma dude your great. I could listen to you all day

[@bonzoleum]

Thank you sincerely, H2 oH!

[@jamisbillson4872]

My favourite drummer is Ilan Rubin from Nine Inch Nails. He’s done a mini series with Reverb and does this song. He gets it wrong. But he’s such a good drummer there must be a reason. He’s won drum awards and this is simple for someone at his level. And JB is his favourite drummer. He also does The Crunge. This is correct. Brilliant tutorial. The open hat I learned it by locking it with the second kick. That made it easier. For me at least.

[@jamesledzepplin7839]

I've been trying to fit a straight rosanna type shuffle into this song and it just didn't sound right. Now i know why! Thanks, back to the woodshed 🙂

[@TheHigherVoltage]

I can't thank you enough for posting this.

[@RollinHomies]

Like watching this breakdown. Dude is just a goof-ball!

[@ninabukovics2802]

Very nice video ! Awesome

[@angrypatriot5392]

Man! You should teach. Any chance you live in southwest Michigan and give lessons? 😀🤘👍

[@TheVeregat]

Great explanation! One of my favorite grooves of all time. You sound like you could be one of Da Bears Super Fans.

[@antonyfage1416]

Your cool, Learning this at the mo, and is helpful thanks

[@bonzeusbonhamito5648]

Dam!!!! I find that song to be so hard to play for me!! But that video is gonna help me a lot! Thanks !!

[@rp3291]

Awesome!

[@jhopkins213]

Nice breakdown!

[@misterzero666]

Great, great job.

[@cesarflores8450]

Badass druming man. make it look easy. go team zep.

[@1zedlepplin]

Awesome vid man will be very helpful-thanks Terry!

[@chrisrodriquez874]

Very good! Proves only people with adhd are the best drummers. Nice

[@NiCoLoCor]

What is adhd?

[@jaxdvr]

Excellent love this guy!

[@wishiegg]

Man, I think I love you! Thanks for this. Amazing.

[@michaelinglis8516]

Once again broken down just right. That and I was counting tri-pa-let an simply counting 1-&-a instead made everything fall into place. I need to remember tri-pa-let works better for me on slower grooves and 1-&-a on everything else....or just everything lol. Thanks!

[@Earthtime3978]

I was taught by a big Zep fan back in the day that its not all right hand on the hat. It's 2 right hat hits coupled with the bass, continue with the right only then left on the hat with bass- then snare. Check that out, it's awesome .

[@paintednumbers4713]

Great lesson! Helped me a TON!! Thanks, Bud!! :D

[@bailey12444]

Awesome as usual thanks bro

[@bubinga_basher]

I post way back, as my question isn't run of the mill. Well, what do you think about "Bonzo Bro" merch? Ha..Seriously, I attempted an act of appreciation, and kindness to you, and your bro. Why did that frightenen you guys? I knew when I got the Paiste products I was going to offer you guys. The reaction I got was alarming. I've been following you guys for years. Especially you. Ok, just thought I'd see if I'd get a response. Keep up the great playing.

[@marcelocastroman697]

Wow! You're definitely crazy and awesome!

[@guydutton1064]

Hi Terry....yep the 'not available' message was occurring in the UK too. Great Vid by the way...as i said to you on the phone a few weeks back the main groove i have nailed. Frustratingly the 'Bridge' section with the ride pattern is difficult for me to play. I think its the transition from a1a2a3a4 so whilst my left foot, left hand, right foot are in 4/4 shuffleville my right hand goes spaz with the 1/4 note triplets. I WILL GET IT RIGHT
