Somebody grab that extinguisher, because this guy's on FIRE!

HWOOOOOOOO... You blew me away! YEEAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!

BRAVO!!! BRAVO!!!!!!

(hangs self)

[Onemodrummer]

Yeah-take the basics and make it your own, by practicing and listening (play with your ears), I've been told.

[muszyngr]

I like how you explain this in the beginning, I don't know how come I have so much trouble with this simple beat, I must practice, practice, practice

[Deix71]

Is a good teacher

[excelkit12]

[theFMLP]

[MrdrummerSSU]

@theFMLP Go fuck yourself

[drummerdude9313]

I LOVE THIS GUY

[bottazzo77]

great teacher, good lesson, dot

[danlovesnan]

what 's wrong with this vid? it's good for beginners.

[0509killer]

@danlovesnan nothing wrong with this guy but drummers that study this shuffle (yes, people spend a lifetime studying/playing shuffles) can be very critical of others. This guy is actually exaggerating very much his strokes. Usually you'll see the hi-hat strokes bounced with a technique and the snare is has a lot of things ghost notes going on. Check out Jeff Porcaro or Bernard Purdie and Art Blakey. They're considered legends on the shuffl.

@0509killer best example for great shuffle: toto - rosanna

[zavertushkin]

everyday i'm shuffling

[keo1ner]

thanks for breaking down the lesson so well...great teacher!

[JoyceThe]

i can't play it well , my teacher says i can't keep it for long,, and i can't bounce the right stick well on the hi-hat, i'm freaking out

[Daffman999]

@JoyceThe keep on! you could practice at home with sticks and a can or something other out of metal

[JoyceThe]

@Daffman999 yeah thanks!!! i am doing it everyday~!

[davss5]

@JoyceThe Many, many years ago I was playing in a band, I did not play the shuffle well back then...I want to encourage you...some things that drummers learn take time...sometimes it's more about "feeling" a groove than simply playing it...eventually, your head/heart and your hands/feet can connect on a deeper level, and suddenly you're playing the groove beyond "trying" - instead, you're "grooving"...give it time, you'll get it!...

[JoyceThe]

@davss5 hmm.... actually i want to know how to be confident in drums. my classmates are...saying me that i don't fit to be a drummer. and that makes me lose my confident. I want to be connected to the drums but i dun have confident, so......

[SoGladToKnowYou]

ima show thus to me dad so we can ploy steevy ray toones togetha,

[dtigers27]

Very good!

[awpmarshall316]

lay off idiots...this guy is good...

[yuri35435]

I think this guy votes republican.

[pray24]

This guy reminds me of shooter mcgavin

[javi9446]

First drum teacher I've ever seen that's not even as good as Travis Barker, and that's saying something xD

[sweetfly66]

you fucking clown .... you are making a simple concept seem incredibly complex ...and your shuffle sounds so cheezy .... just AWFUL

[roberttylershaver]

@sweetfly66 when one is teaching lessons, you must emphasize concepts like this so students can get a full understanding of the thing. To really become an amazing player, one must break down the craft and completely indulge themselves in it.

[sweetfly66]

@roberttylershaver ... the point of teaching is twofold ... one , inspiration .. you must inspire the student .... two , make thins as simple as possible .... this guy does neither

[Coiler82]

some people here talking about the sound of the drums but don't understand nothing about the lesson..

[asbm90]

damn three beats leave the middle out. Great teacher

[wilson0013]

The sound of your snare is really bad bro! The sound of the whole drum set actually!!

[nodaska19]

you got the beat man u just need to lurn how to hit the drum lol lol

[mtm1104]

can someone explain "leaving out the middle triplet". I don't understand what he means by that. thanks

[wowrazzor]

@mtm1104

Triplets are counted like this: 1-trip-let 2-trip-let .. he means leaving out the "trip", thus leaving you with the shuffle beat.

[jasaggio]

this is a good video...especially for beginners like me. I think he is exaggerating the hits to be concise...give the guy a break.

[Sdgkiller]

This guy drums really... heavy shitty like... So I like the more smoother way to play the shuffle... this is just like a rock beat.... a shuffle beat becomes a shuffle beat when you add ghost notes.... he didnt add any so I guess this isn't hes kinda beat :p

[Nobody6879]

@Sdgkiller, im with u there

[aconston]

haha this guy teaches at my college

[pwngrinder]

@aconston I hope he doesn't teach drums or tuning :P

[spookypunky]

@pwngrinder Good one. I was thinking the same thing.
