took lessons from him 10 years ago and its made me alot better drummer one thing that stands out in my mind is when i ask him about why he dont play double peddle is he hasent masterd the single yet the guy has springs in feet
I love when punk asses who are truly jealous comment about so called "mistakes" Derico is a monster, and he's not asking you to be a bitch ass, he's asking you to shut your damn mouth so he can whoop a huge amount of ass for about 2 minutes and 19 seconds.
my preference is to have the groove regulator, mr j.d. blair, playing with vic because he is a much more tasteful and proficient drummer to complement vic's outrageous ability. so how bout them apples? applesauce.
choppy and sloppy. bass drum sounds horrible, toms and snare a close second in poor sound. not impressed with speedy fills and choked crashes. 1:10 is kinda cool, but that's the peak for me. "lack of feel is slack for real"
while i do agree he comes off better live, if you're gonna see any drummer play with vic and truly lay it down, for me it has to be the groove regulator, the one and only j.d. blair.
Rico... Like always you are he man. I can't believe I never searched you on here before. Well if you see this God Bless you and we hope to see you home sometime soon....BIG DAVE
one exercise Derico does is while playing 2&4 on the snare Quarter notes on the hi-hat the foot plays 1-12-123-1234-12345-1234-123-12-1 then a fill gradually speeding up he showed me that when we were hanging one day
ha ha, oh sorry i misread your first comment. Have you got a double bass pedal, if not, that helps. There are also different ways to play with the foot:
i was at the ark in ann arbor he was with victor wooten and he did a unbelievable solo in the dark with lcd lit tipped drumsticks. best concert ive ever seen mainly because of him
Freakin amazing drummer. Right foot worth some mad bills too. Quoted a bit of hot for teacher when i saw wooten live last weekend. Not too shabby if i do say so myself
