Solo Snare Drum Competition

[mfadeza]

@nickppp yes nick.it does have

[Thefallendrummer1]

for some strange reason i felt like taking a crap when i heard this....

[TripperDipper1]

let this guy play on a floor tom (or on a surface with low rebound) and he will suck like hell because he just presses the stick against the head without implying any finger work.

I don't get why this gus is supposed to be a good drummer, because his technique sucks, especially his left hand.

[nickppp100]

someone said that the snare drums in pipe drums have snares on both heads. Is that true? It seems odd.

[ClTIZEN]

@nickppp100 Yup there is a snare on both heads.

[Jamiek246]

well i am in City of Limerick pipe band Gard 3 and 1 of the best pipe bands in Ireland ........ the drum sound bit flat i recommend an Adanta head they sound well better....

[Jamiek246]

Nice score man but tune the drum

[freesnare]

i agree with blackcat987, Finger work on the left hand would increase technique and clarity.

comments from posers, miscreants, or retards with no experience in pipe band drumming will be removed or at least made fun of, so think twice before posting

[joconnor66]

These comments get more and more hilarious every time I read them. I love the detailed critiquing people can do from a cell phone camera.

How dare you Oliver, you broke my heart by not inviting me to your Battlefield Earth party, now this???

[BlackCat987]

The traditional grip technique of those "pipe drummer" guys is really messed up.

This guy here should predominantly work on his double strokes by implying more finger work.

[johno100100]

check th rspba website , it tells you all th grades and comps and whay bands are registered with them . please listen to other bands from scotland and compare thm wif your band and every other one in america

[celticmaps]

Usually beginners start in grade 4 for solos, then move up as they get better. This guy is a grade 1 drummer now.
