Jojo Mayer clinic_ foot technique

«Look at the stick, look at the tip of the stick...» * Camera stills down on the inert feet *

[@harrypar1]

despite the crappy quality of the video, it shows more than enough info to learn this technique. all it takes is some quality time on relaxed practicing

[@antibulletdodger101]

Last thing he said at the end of the video: "All it takes is a little practice" Yeah, thanks for that info..

[@legacyShredder1]

7 years later. Did you get it down?

[@antibulletdodger101]

@@legacyShredder1 No. Give me a couple more minutes here.

[@eelamite]

i still just watch this every now and then. prolly will never stop, lol

[@trevorbadger91]

Jojo: "Look at the stick, look at the TIP of the stick..." Cameraman: BUT WHAT THAT FOOT DO. Classic.

[@corzetohuani553]

watching jojo make me wanna go back to drumi g..he's awesome

[@arturwachowski6827]

Little practice : ) good one.amazing technique anyway Jojo.

[@Thomlistentoslayer]

DAMMIT SOMEBODY UPLOAD THE DRUMSOLO FROM THIS CLINIC😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@ivanmartino5965]

Una bestia jojo.......

[@michaelandcolinspop]

Good grief...I work on my right foot isolated all the time, but this is next-level. I get thrilled when I can single-foot straight 16th notes at 110 bpm without using my left pedal. Controlling the groupings of notes to stop and start them within a groove? Wow...

[@legacyShredder1]

How far have you made it with your foot in the year that's passed since your posting of this?

[@michaelandcolinspop]

@@legacyShredder1 I wish I could say that I achieved any level of right-footed competence close to this, but I really struggle with the foot-ankle motion that JoJo uses. After almost 40 years of playing heel-up, it’s tough to make a confident stroke change, so I’ve focused a lot more on smoothing out my toe slide + ankle swivel motion at higher speeds. I’ve always got the left pedal to bail me out, of course, haha! Interestingly, I do use his foot technique to control my hi hat, and have been doing so for years. I guess my feet are screwy.

[@onesyphorus]

that's EXACTLY why i think abt this video every day.. since 2021 not even the kick pedal - that's not as hard tbh. its the LEFT foot

[@johnnyv7205]

he's a beast..🤘

[@gelanjpable]

Brutal beats !!!!

[@slankan]

8:29 i was literalky trying to work out someth like that, just before to day in the arco.. so glad i saw this, rnaugh

100 best musician quotes of all time "all it takes is a little practice"

[@eelamite]

been watching this for the past 2-3 yrs lol

[@MrGarcon98]

the camera man is not in tune with the drummer !

[@pequeno1114]

Gossip is sinful as make fun of someone, promote and allow ot with bad consequences. Try to follow what was written in the bible. Bye.

[@prohomes]

So, how much spring tension in the base pedal? Some to very little?

[@onesyphorus]

i likevthis guy

[@eelamite]

1:04 i still tense up when i see that pure glass of water just standing there as he's lifting the snare stand ,aha

[@hectormaciel6800]

Capo!

[@drRedStronger]

oh..where is another part~?

[@Thomlistentoslayer]

upload the drum solo performance from this clinic please

[@onesyphorus]

i mean lowboys were kinda only to be kept time with the left foot, since it was so low on the ground lol jojo nailed it

[@5iveThumbsUp]

It seems like he is using a sort of heel toe technique

[@learnafro-cubanpercussion846]

Jojo really found his voice and style as a drummer over time. Also, amazing player, bad teacher haha

[@handidrummed]

He's a great teacher. His dvd's couldn't get more in depth on technique.

[@ItsBriiiiii]

one of the best teachers and clinicians ever!

[@adityatyagi4009]

"All it takes is a little practice..." :D

[@slankan]

even the keft foot. .,.,.,. wow what a monster !

[@eelamite]

so informative

[@onesyphorus]

just onnea those videos, aye?

[@kpra.2pro590]

i love how it’s (foot technique) “no, not” (kick pedal technique) - since he shows how to accumulate for fast hi hat speed

[@eelamite]

even to have one limb like this guy

[@vmontbrillant446]

Yea!!!🙃😁🥰🥰

[@antonpetrenko1687]

it's like - PA PA PA

WHO in the FUCK smokes a cigarette while talking/playing/educating in front of a large group of people? Baha, musicians back in the day..

[@ulfharms2992]

+Charlie's Drum Corner Haha, and than stubbing it out at the floor right in front of the camera :-)))))

[@CamiloMoyaBaterista]

hhhaha

[@leocomerford]

Frank Zappa used to stick the still-burning ciggie underneath the strings of his guitar behind the nut while he was on stage, and he wasn't the only one who did that. There's also a nice big cigarette burn on Ringo's original Ludwig snare. Apparently that famous wrapping was pretty flammable so he was lucky not to lose the whole kit.

[@leonardoduartedeassis]

Is that on the background a skull head? It's over the bass drum

[@harrypar1]

as we can see clearly he is a member of the satan's league

[@danmaciel3518]

[@spacevspitch4028]

"All it takes is a little practice." 🤷‍♂️

[@Thomlistentoslayer]

[@Thomlistentoslayer]

Daniel Tingström ?

[@luigiluigi1652]

Wow 🙃 probably the more technical advanced drummer

[@slankan]

7:42 so great

[@guimadrum]

Do you know what year was this?

[@nicolasfrossard4315]

I think it's because of his sticks but it could be the pedal stand

[@ratchetheros]

Footage quality makes it look like it was 1976

[@onesyphorus]

if tommy wiseau became a god on earth

[@samcrawford7516]

If only only he were good enough to play Bad Moon Rising. Then he'd be REALLY good : )

[@SamuelDavidDeLuce]

Hahahahahaha

[@marcosvrech4794]

1:11 💏

[@Interwurlitzer]

the Hungarian cameraman's extraordinary expertise adds unsolicited cringe to the video

[@19tet]

this comment section is a goldmine

[@Ron_Masterjohn]

Anyone know what high hat stand that is?

[@michaelandcolinspop]

Bond_James Bond Judging by the legs and feet, it looks like a Sonor, and most likely the highest model they made at the time.

[@gh0stn0tez]

Why do I feel like guys like Jojo or Virgil Donati were a lot better when they were in their younger days? This is insane.

[@AquaAnim]

I get what you mean. I think maybe, and feel free to disagree :P but maybe. I think as they got older, they became more technical, and to me sometimes more stale?

[@DrumChannelJunior]

They were far more choppy as we all are in our younger days of drumming

[@yrussq]

+gh0stn0tez WTF are you talking about? You have no ears? Jojo now is a monster - while back those days he was only potentially a good drummer not even great.

[@mdrums1428]

+gh0stn0tez jojo never loses the materials he had when he was young jojo now is just perfectly aware of when to perform them when to be complicated, when to be simple,etc and his playing is more about details now, in my opinion

[@GorcStew]

he still plays the things he did when he was younger. He is MUCH better now than then in my opinion and much better at explaining new or innovative concepts at drum clinics

[@jeffholmes2459]

Smoking while doing a clinic!!
