[@SmokeyG69]

Imagine only playing one drum, my fellow quad squad.

[@spartandrew8672]

I swear I’ve said this at least a hundred time

[@richardjonaus697]

[@eturnumdescentftw7005]

Thank you for the video keep it up! I'm always ready to learn and improve my skillls

[@AmirOosman]

thanks!

[@adamsutton1748]

This would’ve been so helpful during my season! It was my first year in the marching band I was put on quads and right before states I got taken out of a quad section solo because I hit too many rims!

[@ayochayce8185]

I Learned a lot just watching Amir Oosman I never made snare in highschool I played quads and tho' I prefer Snare still his tips, videos, and advice, help me get through the back pain and be choppy on Tenors THANK YOU AMIR YOU AND BILL BACHMAN WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE QUAD DRUMMERS

[@Elfbarrr]

[@nickthemusicman1101]

[@peanutallergy5318]

I play snare but I'm working up to the tenors.

[@benblackburn2693]

Really great lesson this is useful for full drumset practice as well I know I've done similar routines to get orientated with moving around a lot

[@luistrevino3991]

Great video. I look forward to practicing this. Hope to see more videos from you brother.

[@jkitchen2003]

omfg this is the greatest exercise ever thank you

[@mervynchristopher9995]

Thanks you so much!!!!! This is helping a lot😁😁

[@AmirOosman]

glad to hear it :)

[@JohnParkerDrums]

Great video, Amir. Really well thought out and articulated. Can’t wait to try this tuning scheme this season.

[@elijahpeterson1784]

It was probably 3.4753 dollars

[@oreo7669]

Thank you so much! Do you happen to have another good pdf/exercise that would work on crossovers? Thanks in advance, and keep up the good content! I really find your videos helpful

[@AmirOosman]

coming soon!

[@chuchomolina9528]

thanks Amir! :D

[@johnreinhardt3772]

Is there any way you could show proper technique regarding verticality of the wrists and exercises that will help the emphasize how your wrists should turn with scrapes on certain drums and with crossovers?

[@ethanmoore2019]

When using the upward motion, do you suggest using more finger/wrist/small muscles or using the bounce more than stroke

[@NoiseyBoyyyy]

You need hella open doubles that's what makes it hard for most people

[@francodandan5989]

That lil stanky stank rim shot

[@barrymonroy7138]

Where can I get a tenor for a reasonable 🤔 price brother ???

[@steampunkhulk5559]

Real quick, moving from one drum to another, its in the arm right?

[@obtuseostrich5037]

How do you hold on to the stick while you scrape? I usually end up letting the stick go and lose control

[@maiaelizabeth5957]

same

[@vincenthuizar5103]

👌

[@obtuseostrich5037]

I’m having trouble keeping my hands from turning out when I do scrapes. Do you have any tips for preventing this?

[@linuxhowto3562]

practice the side to side hand movement. Go very slowly and play each part of the scrape while focusing on hand movement.

[@tannertyler5481]

What notes are your tenors tuned to?

[@frisco6358]

Your sticks are literally dead from lacerations XD.

[@TheBandMan]

3:20 sounds like the running in an old scooby do carton.

[@kanel.6326]

2:45 Hold up

[@oceanman9490]

Jah_mobil I know lol sounds familiar to blue coats 2015 doesn’t it?

[@JaydenDeonteArt]

what in the world did you play at the beginning of the video?

[@ep.tx2193]

Would the sticking be “RR LL” or “RLRL”

[@JaydenDeonteArt]

EP.TX21 RR LL, double strokes the whole time

[@mmm-spaghettii9618]

Do you mean sweeps?

[@dogestep64]

They are both the same things

[@dylanshay646]

What tenor sticks are those?

[@playboibryar]

what sticks is he using??

[@barrymonroy7138]

How much was your tenor

[@wafersss]

Ur drums sound like musescore dumline

[@randytwin9821]

0:50

[@chrisnguyen1186]

Or you can just buy Blue Devils quad drums and not have to worry about it /s

[@0Aquamelon]

no. Being someone that is a tenor drummer, the rimless design solves hardly anything. it will sound terrible if you don't try to clean it up, rims or no rims.

[@stansethley3853]

@@0Aquamelon Yeah seconding that, if you are hitting rims on a drum with rims, moving over to the rim cutouts will sound just as bad because you may still be hitting the drum but you are hitting right near the tension rods and it will sound awful.

[@NoiseyBoyyyy]

Scrapes are visually different and are not easy though you can't just automatically know how to play drum to drum with clean strokes hella fast but system blue drums are just so you don't have to worry about it

[@hyrumbaungartner1197]

1:53 Lol it sounds like paradiddles

[@linuxhowto3562]

You are god status, but you shouldn't turn your shoulders when changing to the outside drums. It's a bad habit, especially if you are marching with them. You can turn your shoulders like that with a carrier on.

[@birthgravy]

That sticks out 😍
