★ Stairway To Heaven (Led Zeppelin) ★ Drum Lesson | How To Play Drum Fill (John Bonham)

[@pawelmorrison]

The drummer community needs more teachers like you, thanks for the simple yet very understandable lesson bro!

[@dgutierrez4]

Explained very nicely. I've always listened to that fill and wondered, but never bothered to break it down.

[@angeladrums]

14 minutos mejor aprovechados en la vida , gracias! 😊

[@Jelmerghinj]

Thanks! Great socks are also the key for great drumming! John Bonham had the best socks ever made!

[@scootersurf65]

I am not even a DRUMMER, yet I am in the know of good drumming and THIS is FANTASTIC drumming! Your humble opinion of how you feel your sound still isn't John's is a testamanent of how amazing John was, but how hard your work at perfecting your abilities to emulate John Bonhams style, technique and love for drumming. You are FANTASTIC! Have you and Jason ever met? I don't know but how does Jason even feel about his ability vs. his Dad's? Does he feel humble like you? :-) I remember when John died. I was at the bus stop in my freshman year of High School. What an emotional deflated to hear this news. Again, not even a drummer, but as a fan of the most unique style in drumming. Never heard anything like it before, nor do I believe has any! Thanks for sharing your great drumming talent! May you always be looked upon as a drumming Saint to John and other great drummers of all kind!

This guy is so awesome I am 13 and I have wanted to learn this drum fill for two years thank you so much drums the word I really appreciate it.

[@groover.]

I love the way you explain this one in a easy and very clear way. Working on the song trying to nail it. Thanks!!!

[@DrumsTheWord]

Thank you!

[@ryannixon4154]

Very insightful, I've been playing this as 'bucket of fish' and it didn't sound right-frustrating. Tried it as a huerta and it works. Thank you!

[@flokurt]

Very useful and accurate, thanks a lot :) Also, the bass drum cam is great. I always thought you were a "heel down" drummer, but actually it looks like you're more comfortable with your heel up. By the way, you should add this in the description, it could be handy for many people : 0:05 fill played 0:21 intro 1:08 simplified version explanation 04:27 simplified version played 05:38 actual version explained 11:45 actual version played 12:45 fill played 13:03 outro

[@taccac7190]

0:21 1:08 4:27 5:38 11:45 12:45

[@TheDecoStop]

Nice one mate. I think you are front runner for actually getting this fill right. I agree, sounds like a right hand lead then a left hand lead

[@sylviewheeler6237]

Just discovered you tonight . Super super perfect explanations ! Super excellent vidéo !

[@mattwilliamson907]

This is a great lesson learned a lot

[@hoshin7472]

To be honest, by now I can say your one of my drum teachers. Actually one of my go to drum teachers when I want to learn a particular song. I’m grateful for all you have shown me thanks for everything! I wish you much success

[@DrumsTheWord]

Thank you, Ho. That means a lot!

[@DrumsTheWord]

Thank you. I put them on just for you.

[@maxxe2]

this is exactly what i was looking for and you explained fantastically! keep up the great work

[@PhilipCullen-of1lj]

Good job mate , so many ways to do this fill but Bonham always led with his left hand I’ve heard

[@nashvillan76]

This is great! Thank you. The best breakdown of one of my favorite fills that I have seen yet.

[@sojake3712]

That was great thank you from Miami, FL

[@hernandezherrerakarlamiche4825]

Muchas gracias por tu contenido. Me ha ayudado bastante Tu forma de enseñar me es muy útil

[@gvader8573]

I purchased my drum kit last year. It’s the first time I’ve played in about 36 years. Anyway, you’ve helped me tremendously and I feel like I’ve watched you grow up in the meantime. 😊

[@DrumsTheWord]

Very cool. Thank you!

[@kevintamk]

you look so proud because you can do this! nice lesson!

[@gavinolinger8290]

Very helpful, as a young drum and huge classic rock fan, this is very useful in learning my favorite led zeppelin song.

[@jamieseiple]

Great instruction as always. BTW, the band played by feel. No click. The tempo fluctuates but grooves together nicely.

[@NOREASTER1]

thank so much for this video, your teaching is very easy to follow..you did a great job.

[@Integrox]

Great lesson, mate. Very helpful.

[@DrumsTheWord]

Thanks dude, that's very cool of you. I always break down my YT videos in the description box like this anyway, you just beat me to it this time! :) Thanks for the drum love, brother!

[@DrumsTheWord]

Thanks, dude! Hot For Teacher is on my list...just got to learn the thing first! :D

[@BearHands31]

Very helpful, and with a great personality too! Thank you for breaking this down!

[@DrumsTheWord]

Great idea, mate! Like it.

[@Jbinks1996]

You have no idea how much this helped me! Thank you sooooo much :)

[@Shazmuka]

Best explantion of both a simple and original Bonham. You Sir have a new subscriber

[@DrumsTheWord]

Hey Paycaasi, thanks for your interest. I use a Yamaha DTX950K. You can see all of Yamaha's kits on their website. Cheers. Rob

[@christopherbarta6934]

You should do some songs from Emerson, Lake & Palmer. I know its in the progressive rock/jazz section but Carl Palmer has some good and fast drum solos. They would be great for you to try out!

[@penunka]

You nailed this Thanks so much

[@DrumsTheWord]

Thanks mate, it was called the "Academy Of Contemporary Music" in Guildford, Surrey :)

[@fthomason2103]

OH, you are amazingly helpful and your explanation in fabulous. I am just begining, so this is stil all way over my head, but thanks to this video I feel that one day soon-ish I will actually undertand something... xxxxx

[@notrubbelac]

Your an awesome teacher

[@maurocomar3781]

Great lesson!

[@DrumsTheWord]

Yes, Mastodon are a band I have considered before. Their drummer is amazing. There are soooo many songs that I want to cover though, and only so many hours in each day :( Thanks for your interest, mate! Rob

[@gretschludwigdrummer209]

Very cleverly explained, nice socks by the way !

[@comedy7081]

brilliant tutorial - many thanks!

[@DrumsTheWord]

You're welcome, and thanks! :)

[@comedy7081]

The 1 and 2, 3 counting tip really helped !

[@PointComplix]

i found that a good way to practice the first part (the heritas) was to start with just the right hand and bass drum, then add the left hand once you've got that down. that way you can practice just triplets and feel the beat a bit better.

[@RoughRocka]

Now I have understood it ;-). Thank you. Nice lesson!

[@rad1k]

Thank you so much mate!

[@lex.cabral.x]

Era justamente essa virada que eu queria entender!! Muito bom!!!

[@mariaaltube]

Hey man I love your videos. I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on Little Black Submarines soon, Thanks

[@CrimsonKarl]

Instead of alternating leading with his left and right, are you sure Bonham didn't just cross his hands over? I've seen videos where he did just that.. i'm thinking of the triplet fill in Dazed and Confused for example. I normally don't lead with my right, so it's tricky for me. I suppose I should learn. Got the crossover down, though :)

[@LearningDrummerSam]

Good vid :) I like how the font for your website is the DW font

[@jeffmckibben2000]

Excellent mate

[@DrumsTheWord]

Thank you!

[@AdrianEduardoPechQuijano]

Very nice!!! Hi from México!!

[@noobsmoke79]

You're a brilliant kid! You should teach at Julliard!

[@chickentwisties2298]

Not a very technically difficult drum fill but it sounds so good.

[@NexxaiM]

Your videos have taught me a lot since I started drumming a few months ago and I'm about to start taking lessons. Is it worth it 12 bucks per 2 hour class? From a professional of course.

[@alejandrotorres1520]

Muy buen video amigo gracias saludos 🇨🇱

[@DrumsTheWord]

Thank you! :)

[@DrumsTheWord]

I have already mate, you can check out the preview video here... /watch?v=zUwOJRMkvxw

[@NiklasDellegard]

You should do a tutorial on ''Los lobos Revolution'' It has a pretty sweet drumlick so you should check it out.

[@PointComplix]

Thanks! I appreciate it. P.S. Love your vids. Any chance of you doing some van halen lessons? im really interested in Alex's intro to "hot for teacher" as i've learned it on guitar and want to learn it on drums now. otherwise, keep doing what you're doing love your channel, and keep putting out the great content!

[@johnnypal1]

Great Information. Thank You for Sharing your great skills. Cheers!

[@DrumsTheWord]

Thank you!

[@TYMCGOUGH]

Hi rob , great cover as always. Could you make a video of After Midnight by Blink 182, i have really been struggling the beat. I would really grateful if you could. Thanks!

[@pataattiable]

Thanks, was very helpful!

[@garbagepailkids81]

Thank you for this!

[@paycaasi]

Thanks man! Your videos are very good and informative. Just wondering, what system are you using? I'm trying to upgrade my DTX 500 into a better one, and I love your system. But I can't seem to find it anywhere! It would be awesome if you reply to me! Thanks -paycaasi

[@jameskelly6010]

Thank you

[@aleejacopo]

great tutorial ty

[@songs8680]

your such a boss

[@Pubwie]

Awesome dude. thank you #tuh tuuh te tuuuh :)

[@Joesfosterdogs]

you know you can program that brain with a Bonham sound...would make this 1000x better. some guy has the exact numbers and drum kit for Roland online.

[@paycaasi]

THanks!!!

[@DrumsTheWord]

rob@drumstheword(dot)com. Thanks for your interest. Rob

[@Lolawesum]

Your awesome. Can you do the song sail by awolnation?

[@DrumsTheWord]

Groooooovy! :)

[@jmlemche]

Can you teach us Black Betty, the Ram Jam version?

[@noobsmoke79]

Primus songs please - John the Fisherman, Winona's Big Brown Beaver, Tommy the Cat.

[@scottswift8153]

Love these, I'm a metal drummer. You should throw in these rolls with dbl bass hits or a triplet on the single foot parts. Makes it sound wicked and a bigger audience covered if you do both versions. That's what I've been doing learn what you throw out then I expand by adding more bass hits usually a dbl or a triplet. We have the exact same dbl pedals.

[@maxdurk4624]

Scott Swift Thats literally why people make fun of metal drummers. Everything has to be overplayed. No sense of nuance in a lot of them. Just "how can I add more double bass to this?"

[@sven2869]

What program do you use to slow the songs down?

[@wmjoca]

I think he does the same fill in Night Flight too.

[@EmmanuelMelladoV]

Todo se escucha tan interesante... Ojalá supiera ingles ._.

[@Redcell6A]

My brother-in-law is an accomplished blues/rock guitarist who's played professionally for over 40 years. I'm a self-taught noob on drums who hears one-e-and-ah-two-e and hears a foreign language and can barely read music. I've always wanted to jam with him and he finally comes to me and says "Let's play Stairway". Are you freakin' kidding me? LOL. I'm am in so far over my head but will take on the challenge.

[@Fabiopintordearte]

Teatcher this is awesome! But not easy!! Heheheh

[@DrumsTheWord]

I'm glad you liked, Fabio. And if it was easy then everyone would be a drummer! Keep up the practice! Rob

[@Braglemaster123]

Do more Bonham mate

[@PointComplix]

at the begining of the fill when you play right hand left hand then bass drum in the pattern *1 and 2 3*

[@dylanhouchin]

6 minutes 21 actually, but yeah, amazing!

[@Noircie]

I love you.

[@xCrazyxJayx]

Acoustic drums are harder to record, and with electronic drums you can change the sound to match the original song. I'm sure he has both though.

[@barry58D]

Is this similar to the rock & roll ending or is just me

[@alencore]

Wow it's John Lennon on drums hehe NICE LOL!

[@DrumsTheWord]

WHAT are you talking about, dude? Hehe, thanks for the drum love though :)

[@Papaya474]

MAKE A TUTORIAL ON ''Fluorescent Adolescent'' by Arctic monkeys :D great song .

[@edugreen3]

Buen video si pusieras traducción a español sería mejor 👍

[@DrumsTheWord]

Gracias, pero no hablo español! :)

[@charliecoops12]

you should mute the cam, it means you wont get the tepping of the pads?

[@elisioaferreira9893]

Liked.😊🇧🇷

[@DrumsTheWord]

Thank you!

[@guillermomartinez3708]

👏👏👏👏

[@Jelmerghinj]

Thats some very nice socks you have there!

[@DrumsTheWord]

Sadly, it's a bit more complicated than just muting the cam my friend.

[@LyndaWhite-ju1gj]

Remember to state Bonham always started triplets with a left hand lead.

[@francismcalister7811]

6:46 and thus Bleed was conceived

[@sbirrito]

well explained video, fudladump rhythm?surely you mean a single storke 4,...its what you played in other example.even though the 4 notes are evenly spaced, when you play them back to back there is a space of two sixteenth note triplets between each 4.If they were evenly spaced and played back to back they would be 16ths. That part is just a bit misleading.

[@jamesbond4633]

I didn't know JOhn Lennon played drums!!!!!!!!

[@packat78]

You should fix your hi hat so the yamaha label faces you. Seems like your hitting it on the side. Th sweet spot is in the range of the logo. Nice drumming though.

[@PointComplix]

the heritas at the begining
