"Big" Thomas Mc Cree drum exercice.

[GlamDrumz]

Snare sounds way killer brah!!!...

[realcucus]

backwards latin!

[cds175]

Ok, he has some chops. Can he play Latin Jazz, I don't think so. Merengue? No this clown is over-rated....speed yes, finesse no.

[echsdrumline]

@cds175 actually he can....iv had 1 on 1 playing with em...

[blight4hire]

@cds175 so one must play latin jazz to have finesse? gospel drumming's variations take areas from many diff genres of drumming.

[BestGirlDrummer10]

man ur sick i love it

[Br0k3M3xican]

Amazing drummer but some just cant explain things very clearly =\

[Br0k3M3xican]

[yehyeh4real]

[timezoner]

Damn dude, mighty fine!

[thebigpeeaye]

keep god out of music!!!!!!!!!

[skilletdrummer12]

@thebigpeeaye why

[piltridge]

@thebigpeeaye YOU GOT SOMTHIN WRONG WITH U BRO. GOD'S THE ONE WHO GAVE HIM THE TALENT AND GAVE U TALENT IF YOU HAVE ANY AT ALL!!

[Sabiano]

@piltridge So it had absolutely NOOOTHING to do with the huge amount of hours he put in practicing? That was all in vain or what?

[stniggerus]

when doin licks how does the foot patterns fit? By feel or sumthin else?

[MrRichyou]

Cool and deceptively tricky. Will have to get this

[juanvvasquez7]

brake that down even slower... its an fat sick lick... loving it i wanna learn it

[DrumBlast89]

The bouns beat sounds awsome!

[ballernerd14]

what is the sticking 4 this?

[LuthaVanDrums]

@ballernerd14 its in son clave which is 3/2 i believe how i play this lick is the KICK it is a 4 beat pattern 6 notes....1 2+a 3 4+ and the hands are played on the a of 1, a of 2, and a of 3 using triplets between hi-hat and snare, starting on your hi-hat.....so that's counted out 1EA, 2EA, 3EA, 4. So your accents on your snare will be on a's of one two and three. Hope this isn't confusing, and hope it helps. It is a great I just learned it tonight lol.

[backbeatbobby]

@LuthaVanDrums 4 beat pattern 6 notes 1 2plus 3 4 e a wtf is this toss explanation

[TheFunkSoulBrada]

I love the versatility of this groove and the many styles that you can incorporate this lick into!

but still cant play it...;(

[Scottde420]

i like how he slows tempo hes got mad rythem

[RollingStone000]

Is he still drumming in Oakland, CA?

[jlclaybourne]

yeah, it's an orchestrated songo... sounds real nice bro! check out @ 5:53 till the end : )

[TomakaBonzo]

he has so much groove and technique

[TheNiggaman]

Oh!!! LIKE A SONGO.

[elguapo91]

This a nice lick, but I find that sometimes the best drummers aren't exactly the best teachers. If you want a better explanation of a very similar lick, search "Mike Johnston songo". It's essentially the same lick, maybe missing some of the ghose notes, but very comparable.

[monsterstinker]

how can i get my hand speed faster? i've been practicing for so long now and i feel like i haven't gotten any faster.. :(

[ddrums001]

Keep Practicing!! and when your done with that........keep practicing again until you get it right (and get this book by Pat Patrillo, very cool book)

[metal666metal100]

hey in my hous is a pop of my dog :D

[flavinho89m]

[BigDawgChangi]

fuhreakinn awesome.

i need to learn this by Sabbath cuz

we are playing We Sing Praises to our King

and it kinda fits with it

[jjbb12Drummer]

He is not teaching the ghost notes part

[jrock2662]

Yeah I got the grove down but dont know how to put the triplet when rolling! Bin trying to figure that out for 3 months now! lol

[jrock2662]

I hear ya man, I've got the groove down pack but I cant combine the Triplet he's suggesting...

[lileulileu]

The ghost notes are from single paradiddle variation in triplets: RllrlrrL RllRLrrl / RllrlrrL RllRLrrl ... the big letters are the accents... after you grasp this, you can omit the ghost notes of the right hand and replace some of them with the bass drum so that the right plays the quarts only... soon you'll get to it... good luck and have fun!

[LuthaVanDrums]

@jjbb12Drummer its a basic drag roll when he speeds up, and when he slows down he uses triplets as ghost notes

[SourAlex85]

The lord has blessed you...

[liljasip3]

This dude is sick
