[celes311314]

[MrFootball2025]

nice job! dont stop playing drummings the best instrument there is!

[smityjohotdog]

@MrFootball2025 Thanks! I agree Drums are the best!

[kgacdc88]

is that a snare?

[smityjohotdog]

@kgacdc88 Yep

[brekar12]

Wow! You were amazing! Hey when I get all the other instraments for this song i could convert it into a full song by a whole bunch of youtubers if you just play the song by it self without the back ground music. message me!

[rerun62696]

lol your setup is strange.. no hard feeling good job

[smityjohotdog]

@rerun62696 it was very strange hahaha

[smityjohotdog]

@IDoItForMusic  what?

[jermdu29]

Did you do this solely by ear or did you have some kind of tutorial or sheet music? Becaue Ive been trying to learn this. If you know somewhere that would help a link would be greatly aprreciated (:

[MrSuperpawn]

@jermdu29 hes just making it look fancy. all ya gotta do is play the rim and get the snarew timed well enough.

[jermdu29]

@MrSuperpawn Thanks. I already got it down. I just sat down and played pretty easily. Not nearly as hard as I thought.

[smityjohotdog]

@jermdu29 ohh cool

[smityjohotdog]

@MrSuperpawn umm what do you mean fancy?????

[MrSuperpawn]

@smityjohotdog i usually just use one rim. makes things easier in my mind.

[smityjohotdog]

@jermdu29 sorry I couldnt help I just saw the comment now haha

[Scarf3086]

@jermdu29 Actually, those are syncopated rim hits there. The first note is just barely longer than the other (think of swing or blues eighth notes, but less extreme). He got off a little bit with the beat occasionally, but I think he pretty much does this song justice. I was thinking about creating a lesson on this song if anybody was interested in it.

[smityjohotdog]

@Scarf3086 yeah It was off a couple of times but thats because my music skips a lot :/ but thanks! you should make one

[Scarf3086]

@smityjohotdog You're welcome :D Yeah, this is one of those kinds of beats where once you get off the train, it's hard to get back on. And she does rest on some beats also, which adds to the confusion. I'll start working on a video tutorial for it

[jermdu29]

@Scarf3086 A tutorial would be cool. I want to make a compilation video. I already learned this on keyboard and now I need drums. This video helped but a tutorialwould be great.

[Scarf3086]

@jermdu29 alright I'll work on one and let you know whenever it's finished. I've got to think about how I'll break down the phrases to make them somewhat manageable lol I'm sure that your mix will be sweet once you get it recorded for drums :)

[FakeMusicSnob]

you need a real stool man. idk how you can stand having a rolly chair..... that would drive me nuts!

[smityjohotdog]

@FakeMusicSnob haha yeah I know I got rid of that chair, now I have a mini wooden table thing hahaha

[Uhsiz]

very good but try to make ur own beat to go with the song well done though :)

[smityjohotdog]

@Uhsiz hmm I never really thought of doing that but I might have to try that and thanks

[Uhsiz]

@smityjohotdog no problem take it into consideration :)

[DrumSticksSnapped27]

not bad man not bad

[smityjohotdog]

@DrumSticksSnapped27  thanks man

[smityjohotdog]

@wildevintage Thanks its my second song I've ever played :D

[LittleNBigPro]

[smityjohotdog]

@LittleNBigPro I have no clue my drum sets kinda old and worn I''ve tried to raise my chair and lower my snare but they are both as far as they can go :/

[LittleNBigPro]

[Emonkey35]

@Emonkey35 haha thanks yeah I don't really know how to read music I had to watch another person do it to learn the song !

[heyitsjohnkinda]

hey i was thinking about starting to learn how to play the drums but i dont know what kinda drum i should get. what would be a good drum set to start with?

[UrielYube]

[smityjohotdog]
