Is there a certain way to hold the durm sticks

[@Evanjb156]

I'm a bassist who stumbled over here to learn some more about what the drummer is thinking and improve my own sense of rhythm/timing. This lesson is outstanding and packed with transferable knowledge. Loving it

[@alabamacoastie6924]

Can't do it without that bass. A drummer's best friend!

[@ebgbees]

Good on you dude! Not only is that a smart strategy in general, but you also could not have picked a better person to glean that knowledge off of IMO.

[@joesteyn6599]

[@skinsforthewin93]

My favorite part of the lesson was when Benny talked about not having a "music background" and thinking that maybe he "doesn't have it." I have had those doubts in the past and occasionally still do, but the at the end of the day, it comes down to the effort you show and the dedication you have. That's a message I think all drummer and musicians and PEOPLE should really apply to their lives in their own ways.

[@chaussette1er]

He lies like Friedrich Nietzsche !!!😁two geniuses . You can't forget your life but must get over it

[@monkeyrilla]

The way Benny thinks is extremely insightful. So much gold without having to tell you "what" to play

[@bartoszdolewski4915]

Drumeo "Time" and "Feel" sections. On the other hand you must be as perfect as possible metronome for a band. On the other hand without great "internal mix" between hats, ride, crashes, ghost notes, rimshots and kicks entire song will sound weak without groove and drive.

[@hgaleano96galeano52]

I love this its soo awesome that you guys got benny greb holy moly! Now everyone wants chris coleman :) cmon drumeo!

[@VincenzoRaynal]

Drumeo "Time" and "Body" sections are my favourites. "Time" because, in my opinion, Benny Greb explains the concept of time and how to develop your internal metronome better than other drummers. "Body" was also so interesting because no one until now had never explained that concept.

[@PatBurns77]

Drumeo Favorite parts are the "Time" and "Open Drum Solo". Benny is a savage and a huge inspiration in the drumming community. Thanks Drumeo for having him!

Benny is funny and top 10 influential players of our time. For a drummer I'd say that experience was super informative, insightful, and funny.

[@addonisryan7472]

I'm just getting back into playing after many years away from it. I see just how good benny is and at the same time am encouraged that I can achieve this level of prowess at some point because of his teaching technique and overall laid back style. I'm not a pro, he is but i have ope that I can be that good at some point.Not to mention I really enjoyed the music he was playing along with.Thanks Benny for your encouraging way of teaching,I felt more like we were friends hanging out in your living room rather than a pro talking at someone who isn't as capable as you are.

[@peppermd]

I've been doing yoga a lot for a year or two and one of the things my instructor makes me focus on is breathing throughout each move. I took a break from drums during this time and when I went back to my kit, I noticed I was holding my breath during fills. I adjusted and started to play with a better frame of mind, less stress and more enjoyment. I'm very glad Benny brought this up.

@JoshSteffen YOU ARE RAD DUDE! I really dig your stuff man. Your Skeletons Of Society video got my attention, I probably watched that 30-40 times man. I've been playing drums 8 months now. Dude, I've been playing guitar in bands, writing my own songs for 28 years. I was never entirely happy with any drummers I'd played with in a bands. I come from a family of drummers also. I am astounded at how much better of a guitar player I've become almost by not playing the guitar and playing the drums, it's hard to explain. I'm a huge Primus fan also dude, Larry LaLonde and Dave Navarro were why I actually burned those midnight hours on the fretboard in the very beginning, "the birthing"- Dude that's a cool title for a Korn inspired song!! The original Korn drummer is a huge influence in my strike & groove. And Joey Jordison.."One more time M'fer" You nailed that song, that's dope AF homie! So much love Josh!!💯

[@pedrobarbeira8729]

Jojo Mayer shits on everyone's head. Literally. The guy is an either-you-get-inspired-or-you-drop-the-sticks-forever type of destruction machine, I don't think anyone can compare. Cindy Blackman is basicly a force of nature. Todd Sucherman has that humble virtuoso type of playing that you just can't pay for. Jack DeJohnette flies over the kit. Ahri Hoenig plays melodies and the kit, even modulates that shit around. Virgil plays different subdivisions split between different members and does different odd groupings over that. Benny is very good, but he's still got a lot to learn compared to the Masters. That's why he's so humble: he knows he has a lot to learn, despite all he accomplised so far

[@randycoyne1303]

Benny Greb is a gifted teacher and a world class musician. Thanks Drumeo.

[@wilmergomez5689]

The best sounding snares i've ever heard in my life!

[@maxsergeant9934]

He took a 2 minute solo in between the intro song. And after two minutes he landed exactly on the kicks...... This guy is a god. 😨😱

[@Ksianth]

He is incredible but probably had a click track sent to his earphones, it's a little hard to see because of his headwear :)

[@maxsergeant9934]

Ksianth yeah, that must be it, cause no one is able solo for 2 minutes and then kand it exactly on the kick

[@Ksianth]

To be honest, I can't perceive if you are being sarcastic or not but I will assume that way:p I did not suggest that and even if you have click playing in your ear, you still must play the exactly same number of bars every time which still makes it an amazing performance. I just felt like a click track is more likely.

[@maxsergeant9934]

No I wasn't being sarcastic. And the fact that (if it's true what you are saying though) he or any drummer uses a click track while playing these kind of things doesn't make the performance any less fantastic. Counting bars is indeed kinda difficult to do for two minutes while playing a solo.

[@taylordoiron8785]

There's also a chance that his in-ear mix could have some counts and cues like "Bridge, 2, 3, 4" and "Solo, 2, 3, 4" etc to help guide through the song. I'm not saying that's what he did, because if anyone can groove with an off-time feel for so long and still come back in on the beat, it's this guy, but I'm just throwing out another possibility!

It's a blast to watch. but it's not really a lesson. Greb is an awesome communicator, but while I find this video very interesting to watch, I don't find it very coherent at all. It's basically concept, described in a very concrete manner, followed by a Greb groove that only tangentially connects to the description.

Don't have people throw their kits into the sun, they should give the kits away to people who want to play drums.

[@Lukas-kh5gu]

4:59 what da? is that the actual song? how is it possible to come in like that again after all that "improvising" ;O

[@double_patchoutdoors]

+Lukas T a click. he knows how many measures there were in between

[@Lukas-kh5gu]

+Caleb Poe oh i see^^ thanks!

[@totalcontrol9458]

+Lukas T Or even maybe a part of the track pplaying on in his in-ears, with some riffs and cues continuing. He can mix his monitor-track as he likes and output something else to the audience. But you are right, it migt just be a click.

[@SylarTheBest]

+Lukas T He has a click in his in-ears :)

[@noahschill1422]

+Lukas T the guy on the laptop may be beatmatching? or hes got a click/cue track in his ears
