May I ask a questio? Is it possible to modify a Ludwig Speed King bass pedal and make a double bass pedal out of one with the need to buy two separate bass drums? I want to hear your take on it.
I was attempting this years ago but without success. You would need a second beater to have a clamp that will fit and attach to the speed king and even then the SK may not support all the movement.Let me know how you make out.
I do, i bought it from Amazon. The book is called "Drum Techniques of Led Zeppelin" and has many songs in it. If you go to my site under learning - docs, scroll towards the bottom of the page and you see it there.
@GrooveDrummin Alright. If your band still plays and you do anything in the Pittsburgh area give me hollar, because I would very much like to hear you play
Goin to see the led zep experience. Tonight.....will be good to hear all the great tunes of a Damn great band....glad Jason us doing this kind of show!!
awesome!you did a awesome job,heck now whenever i want to listen to achilles stand ,i always come to ur vid,thanks greatly for sharing,,oh by the way this is a great song to run too!!
@GrooveDrummin I just saw Jun626's cover of this glorious song. He's done quite an amazing job. Now I'm watching you nail it with the drums at perfection... I'm sitting here, like, "are you kidding me, sir?" You're great, no joke.
I think both of you guys, along with jamesnorthernva (whose voice is identical to that of Plant) should do a cover of this song. It would be an astonishing YouTube event (not to mention Facebook, because I'll be spamming it like crazy on everyone's page). :D
One of the many things I love about Bonzo was how his fills never got in the way of the music, and this song is a case in point... and brother, you nailed it. Respect!
Hey thanks for this man, that was sensational. My favourite Zeppelin tune. As a 49 yr old arthritic beginner, i'd love you to do a slow mo tutorial on this! Thanks again
Amazing performance - thanks so much for the excellent video. I am a guitarist, but I always thought that the real "star" of this song was the drummer!
@GrooveDrummin Amazing, dude. Can't even tell the difference... sounds like exactly like the original. Thanks for posting, best cover on YouTube so far.
Great playing!! but I was just wondering, how i could find one of those Ludwig Classic Maple sets in that model with the one rack tom and two floor toms? I've looked all over musicians friend and the Ludwig website ect.., and i cant find it. If you could reply that would be great. Thanks
You could always go to your local music shop and see if they still have them or custom order the sizes you want. When I bought them Ludwig called this kit the "zep set" so maybe you could look for them by name. Keep me posted if you want. Thanks for watching!
Hi Dan - Just wanted to say i really dig your channel.
Really enjoyed the latest Bonza lesson, its great to be able to visualise all the parts and check it against my own technique. Always good to compare playing styles and nick bits I may otherwise have missed. Big Thanks.
Hey Dan, first I'd like to say that I really enjoyed this cover...I know you get a ton requests but if you have time I'd really like to see your interpretation of "Good Times, Bad Times" if you ever get a chance.
Hey Dan..."?" I had that guy rebuild me one of htose Speed Kings. Was yours sort of a bit too tight down at the bottom where he puts that screw through on the heal?
He told me to just keep working it and that it would loosen up a tad. My Flying Dragon is still #1
There are two guys renovating the SK. Mine came from Joe in New York and I love it. The screws you speak of are still original on mine and I think you got yours from the other guy. I would suggest to loosen off the new replacement lock nuts just enough to prevent friction. I crank both springs pretty much as tight as they can go. Thanks Marc.
@GrooveDrummin Yeah...I did that a bit with that screw. It made a large difference. On another subject I just want to say again Dan that I think you have become one of the best teachers I have ever had in a sense for helping me with my technique and learning some very cool riffs! Whenever we hear of a person that comes out of the woodwork and can do quite a bit that nobodies ever heard of... "Thats you" Dan! There is a lot presented here and I thank you! ;p)))))))))))))))
I have a question for you Dan ? do you have your rack tom held by a Snare Stand or what cause im looking to get a tom mount I hear snare stands are usable but they can kill the tone?
I use a Pearl opti-mount (less movement than standard rims mount). The snare stand will choke the sound but I came across a stand that doesn't kill it too bad and that's the Pearl S-2000. I still suggest getting the opti-mount however.
thanks ill look out around for an opti mount.... see this is why your my favorite Drummer on youtube not only are you amazing at playing but you actually reply to your fans when we have questions.
oh wow mate! one of the best rock songs ever, with one of the best drumming tracks ever by THE best rock drummer ever & you have absolutely nailed it! awesome brother, you're an inspiration, great to watch your bass pedal technique, I learnt a lot! thanks mate, keep it up!
Just happened to check up on you to see if you'd done Achilles Last Stand and to my surprise, you did! And did it VERY nicely! \m/(>.<)\m/
All the best to you, sir! Everything you do is fantastic! Videos, everything! I've been playing over 20 years and am a better drummer after watching your videos and applying them.. Thank you sir and keep rockin'! Teaching my 5 year old Kashmir.. Good song to learn on me thinks..
Amazing man! truly well done! one of my favourite Zep songs and you nailed it! love the drums man! and the speed king pedal! awesome tone to your drums too! well done man!
10/10 drums performance....last Zep reunion in London would have been much better with you on the drums...the Bonzo's heavy drumming spirit is surely with you man....have fun
Way to go DANZO !!! This had to be one of the last masterpieces they put out, definitely one of my favs. Your playing is as fantastic as ever. Nothing says Led Zeppelin like LUDWIG and PAISTE !!!!! Love it !!
OMFG man you kick ass!! look at this: 02:26 !!! your led zeppelin and deep purple's covers are awesome! chech my videos too, we play lots of theses song on my band! congratulations again!
I love you! Thank you for covering my favorite Led Zep song. Now I have a chance to learn it, seeing everything you do. You're amazing! I hope I'm as good as you someday! Cheers!
That's some great endurance you got there. I noticed my quick double bass hits in between beats gets kind of quiet sometime. Over time will the volume improve or is there something im missing?
Thanks. When you practice your bass drum foot, I suggest to try and get all the hits equal in volume even if the pattern calls for accents....again only in practice mode. When you get around to playing what is written, the quieter double hits will be balanced. A good exercise I like to practice for the bass drum is the "purdie shuffle".
Lo que un entrenamiento esta es! De gran estructura rítmica, siempre me ha gustado esta canción. En este sentido, también introducen un conjunto de emperador nuevo Remo vintage cabezas en todos los síntomas, así como la trampa. Espero que este video arroja algo de educación visual para las piezas que no estaban claros. Disfrute
A question about the bass tuning: i use the same bass tuning method that you use. When i make a hard attack, the beater bounces a lot. How can i get a straight attack?
@GrooveDrummin yeah i saw it... but sometimes I would like to have the deep sound of the tuning but without so much resonance, thats why i let the beater rest on the head and then is the bouncing trouble. I tried a reso head with a hole and that takes out a lot of the bouncing and resonance, what do you think?
I find a port takes away pretty much all the bounce and then you can let the beater rest on the head. In fact, when I first got my 26" I had the same problem but when I cut a port, problem gone. I even went so far as to try no reso head at all. You ever try that on your 26"?...holy crap, "rip your face off" loud! Recording wise, the sound is bigger non-ported and faster ported. But keep in mind...speed is not everything, it's how colorful and smooth you play with the overall sound.
@GrooveDrummin I agree with you. have you seen jojo mayers foot technique? I was practicing it but the bouncing kinda ruins it. Anyways, i better stay with the port head. Thanks!
Wow. Yeah, you master that one

En este sentido, también introducen un conjunto de emperador nuevo Remo vintage cabezas en todos los síntomas, así como la trampa. Espero que este video arroja algo de educación visual para las piezas que no estaban claros. Disfrute

A question about the bass tuning: i use the same bass tuning method that you use. When i make a hard attack, the beater bounces a lot. How can i get a straight attack?

don't let the beater ever rest on the head...you have to let the springs pull it back. See my first lesson on foot technique for illustration.

@GrooveDrummin yeah i saw it... but sometimes I would like to have the deep sound of the tuning but without so much resonance, thats why i let the beater rest on the head and then is the bouncing trouble. I tried a reso head with a hole and that takes out a lot of the bouncing and resonance, what do you think?

@hendrickvps
I find a port takes away pretty much all the bounce and then you can let the beater rest on the head. In fact, when I first got my 26" I had the same problem but when I cut a port, problem gone. I even went so far as to try no reso head at all. You ever try that on your 26"?...holy crap, "rip your face off" loud! Recording wise, the sound is bigger non-ported and faster ported. But keep in mind...speed is not everything, it's how colorful and smooth you play with the overall sound.

@GrooveDrummin I agree with you. have you seen jojo mayers foot technique? I was practicing it but the bouncing kinda ruins it. Anyways, i better stay with the port head. Thanks!
