[@gowrisahadevan9474]

Mike Barnes Drums how do you play the snares in off

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

@@gowrisahadevan9474 Move the lever (usually on the side of the drum) so that the wires are no longer touching the bottom head - sound more like a tom-tom!

[@BUTTERFLYINHEART]

I love your drumming it is amazing I learn from your drumming

[@CPD-jo5ht]

0:50 he kinda be vibing though

[@marksmith383]

[@evelyncherian5131]

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Noted in description and pinned comment. Thanks for watching! :)

[@hissboom1931]

[@hissboom1931]

Nvm

[@acronin999]

Read description bruhh he said too XD

[@keithmoon3190]

@@hissboom1931 Wait, did somebody just say how to get the St Anger snare?

[@julianbramley]

Sorry to bother you again, I'm having an afternoon practicing. Great song, apart from that bit at about 35 secs (bar 16) I guess there's no magic pill, I just have to keep going back over it till I'm up to speed? Thanks again for the videos.

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Yeah probably the trickiest little bit in the song! Yes it's basically practice, but I always feel that building general coordination within grooves is the way to go, rather than spending too long focused on that one moment in the tune! Something like Gary Chaffee's Time Functioning Patterns book, first few pages. Will post some videos in this vein soon. Cheers!

[@julianbramley]

Mike Barnes Drums I'll have a look, nice one thanks, appreciate your time.

[@chapter1andy]

Dear Mike, will you be recording one new video with snares off? I'd like to know how it sounds, so as to help me for my exams. Thanks

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Hi Andy, not planning on it tbh! Lots of other songs on the request list, and feel this works fine as a guide for playing the part! If you really want to hear the same part played with the snares off, Dave O'Dart has made a great video demo of it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d3fXlHZnrrh3rpY Cheers man and thanks so much for watching. Good luck with your exam! :)

[@drabtrash]

nice and concise !

[@kevwitt9010]

love lt ty x

[@louispo6038]

Good

[@ivesfoo5997]

Btw, snare off means just to put down the snare string or…?

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Yep move the snare strainer to the "off" position, so the wires are not touching the bottom head.

[@alisongibb4726]

Excuse my ignorance but what is “snare off” when there are snare beats in this song?

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Hi Alison, see my pinned comment - I should have played this with the snare wires in the "off" position, for a more tom tom-like sound throughout (that's what the instruction means!). Hope you're doing well :)

[@Pickeringwillow]

so cool

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Are you gonna go my way

[@PeteMel1875]

Is the intro snare roll correct??

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

It's correct to the trinity Grade 3 version of this song, which is what this video is a demo of! Original is a little different. Cheers.

[@PeteMel1875]

[@philipmccann2358]

What’s all this “ snare off “ nonsense? Listen to the original and the snares are deffo on …they might be loose but they are on !

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Ha, it's just an arrangement of the song and not a replication of the original! Thanks for watching 🙏
