thanks a lot, you're the only one doing the right patterns on youtube. I was losing my mind because I was hearing something weird with the hi-hat in the song but everyone was playing it like a regular beat, NOW I know I'm not crazy.

Good lesson. I'm a bass player, but I 'm trying to learn drums to teach my daughter. I like how you broke everything down into parts, showed the techniques, and played the different tempos.

[@rockyvsrambo82]

Hi Richard... Thanks for the positive feedback... All the best for teaching your daughter the drums... Awesome work!

[@bossderwelt8622]

love it! could you do a tutorial on no excuses by Alice in chains? I haven't found a really helpful one and your tutorials always make so much sense to me !

[@tristans5466]

This is the drumming channel I never knew I needed. I can see your channel growing exponentially if you just do what you do. Love it!

[@rockyvsrambo82]

Amazing lesson, thank you. Your mic was popping sometimes, just a heads up!

[@rockyvsrambo82]

Yes, thank you for the feedback... Yes the dreaded mic 'pop'... Will do my best to fix this for future lessons... All the best!

Very nice, auto sub 😀

[@rockyvsrambo82]

Awesome... Glad to have you join the channel... Appreciate it!

[@HANKUS]

thanks! this was super cool. unfortunately on my electric kit i have no ability to accent, but now that i know about that technique, i tried it out in my drum programming for personal compositions and it really helps with the hihat sound/groove... so thanks for that revolutionary result Cheers! in regards to 1979, i didn't know about the second hihat (very neat) the cover you cited seemed to even have 3 hihats in total, super cool... i really like jimmy chamberlain's drumming! thanks!

[@rockyvsrambo82]

Hi Hankus... Great to hear from you! Yeah Im a fan of drumming from this band too... Sounds like you have some really cool projects/ drumming on the way... Thanks and keep up the great work!

[@HANKUS]

@@rockyvsrambo82 thank you! im working on getting my drumming caught up with my other instruments, been watching your videos to help... i use 1979 as a warm up now and lead with my left hand in an effort to get that tighter... next big lesson for me is limb independence! you have any tutorials on that already?

[@extremelypositiveperson1811]

Thanks for the drum tutorial

[@rockyvsrambo82]

Hi Paolo... Thanks very much... Glad this has been helpful... Keep rocking!

[@spicylegato6024]

Damn I always could tell there were accented hi hat notes and at first I thought they were just accenting the off beats but when I played it that way it still didn’t sound right. And then I listened closer and realized it was much more complicated than just accented off beats so I just assumed it was added in post production or maybe even a second percussionist. That’s a crazy hard drum groove. Nicely done.

[@serialhobbiest]
