Rock Beats & Rhythms: Drum Lessons : Playing the Standard Eighth Note Beat

[conway7776]

He's just trying to help kids out. I can't believe these comments.

[sshapiro2001]

great job teaching sean. you do exactly what is needed for a beginner. my kids are taking lessons and i will have them watch your clips too. again, thank you for taking the time:)

for the haters, remember this, when you point your finger at somebody to criticize them you have three fingers pointing back at yourself and one to G*d.

[Shotgunpoff]

Shit. and i thought my bass drum sounded like shit.

[XXmadmike7878]

He used his only blanks to make his crap drums sound a little better

[2StrokeMaster]

what a retard he needs a life.... Speaking of life this was a waste of 2.48 min. of my life i was looking for something good not GAY!!!!

[themrben3332]

@2StrokeMaster its not gay because its not u

[thewhochilipeppersU2]

LOL 1:11 I love how the camera guy zooms in on the bass drum like that is an epic bass drum beat or something lol.

[miniwheats94]

Anybody notice that crack in his hi hat?

[x13l00dHunt3rs]

"See you next time"... THERE WILL NEVER BE A NEXT TIME EXPERT VILLAGE!!!!!

[Trevor601998]

it took me 5 minitues to learn that. and this guy is actin like its hard.

[beckhamshotz]

@Trevor601998 It shouldn't take more than half a second.:P

[stemtb89]

This video is more helpful in teaching people how to count from 1 to 4 rather than playing the drums.

[iamthedrumbeast]

someone chipped his hi-hat. probably from leaning on it :D

[daveizazombie]

OMG hyperspeed @1:38!

[TEDDYSTUDiOS24]

Boy, i haven't even got a set at home (Soon will have) and i can do this crap since i was... like 8 or so?

He's overdoing.

I can teach this to someone in 2 minutes.

And I think many of you would be able to do it too.

[bobereooss]

its to easy

[pasmaidi101]

lol.

[MrUnleasher]

lol, I learned this beat on mi FIRST drum lesson :D

[wafflesrmyfav1]

good job

[pokerguy17]

What the fuck did you do to your hi-hats!? >_> By the way, I've been only playing for like a couple months and I can do this and more >_>

[matatak94]

@pokerguy17 so can the vast majority of people who have played for a couple of months. This video is for absolute beginners, if you've played for a few months you should be watching more advanced stuff

[pokerguy17]

@matatak94

No shit sherlock >_>

[fozah]

i looove reading all the comments written by haters/idiots/jerks ;D

[razr2142]

but actually for absolute beginners this would help. Stop beating up on the guy. I started out not even being able to beats like this.

[razr2142]

haha loook at his shoes...

[emilianocmg]

sos malisimo gordo !

[xtianp0h]

nice.... :)

[awtroar]

well if this guy sucks, where do i go to get better tips?

[javier20893]

this is lame lmaooo

[1DrummerNick]

Give the guy a break!

[Nico374a]

Wtf, how are you hitting the drums.. You need power in your foot.. Also, any snare sounds like shit when you hit it like that. The hit-hat sounds like shit when you hit it from above like that.. Before learning others how to play, go learn it yourself..

[TokyoMystify]

@Nico374a PRACTICE PEOPLE!!! XD chill out man

[jmasterX]

omg @ 1:41 wayy to fast, he was totally trying to show off there because only pro's can play as fast as 1:40 ...

[ZERODIS0]

my god my drums sound better than his and i suck at tunning my drums and i have a crappy of brand kit jesus

[mislav112233]

@ZERODIS0

hahaha same thing here

[914peru]

love you i think I can do it thanksss

[Archangel138]

you suck!!! ... so do your drums!!!!

[neonjunior69]

i thought u said the bass drum hit in the and of 3...u played it in beat 3....sooo much for a proffesional..

[Ralroost]

Look up Spikeydrummer. His stuff is free AND he is a good player

[AgainstM3]

Good tips and good clip thanks

[M1330PL]

do you got make-up in your face ? o.O

[picball39]

would be kind of funny to see an expert village rock band performing on instruments like this (sound) :D expert rock 101 deathmetal

[TheJkirsch]

@picball39 haha classic. i actually thought about doing an expert village video on how to play the trumpet. which i can't play at all. i really don't think anyone would notice

[zoro897]

101 ratings...

[happythoughts7]

Thank goodness I found this guy !! So helpful for a very beginner...I feel like I will be able to learn this now...really needed to see it slow and with the kick drum foot being shown ! You made my week !

[KenyaItaly01]

i learned from this guy it helps

p.s. im new to drums

[Forza2begdrift]

i like to call it rock drumming 101 the basics. did u come up with that on your own?

[matija191]

i dont play drums and i actually learned this in 5 minutes =/ i mean i learned it to play verry fast :D

[iamevildoing]

ay mate if ya really wanna learn to play the drums properly you also need to know the techniques...man it pisses me off to see "good" drummers just "grabbing" a pair of sticks and just hit the drum...

[bbbabie123]

i just started learning the drums and i learned this yesterday and its so much harder than it look :| lol

[drumqueensumia]

@bbbabie123 trust me just practice 4 a bit and it'l b so easy this is one of the most basic rock beat l8r wen u'l be a expert at this beat ul think its the easyst beat in the world

[shadersdrummer]

hey bud am a drummer and im always looking for some thing on here that i can learn that i dont do and bud you need pratice

[cccbaustin]

You guys are freaking lame. All you do is sit around and criticize people. Let me ask you a question, what the hell do you do with your worthless lives? This guy is trying to teach the basics of drumming you freaking retards. Get a life.

[TheJkirsch]

@cccbaustin It is not, at least for me, about ripping on someone trying to teach a drum lesson. its that there isn't one person teaching lessons on expertvillage that knows ANYTHING ABOUT PLAYING DRUMS. and they get paid! i've never had a lesson in my life, and i'm not the best drummer out there. but give me a break! i have 900 views on ONE video and i'm pumped. meanwhile this guy and the mutant with the mismatched toms has like 900,000 views each. AND a check in the mail! BS

[ithinkyoumustlovmeh]

thats a hot beat thou ^.- stop dissin' pplz

[rockismeNpunkrocke]

hahaha i knw right? :p

[fameasser35]

yeah seriously! Just wanna smash his head through the snare drum ;P

[m1garand00]

yes maybe because hes teaching new how to play, that would explain why he plays like a beginner ponder that one why dont you.

[harut2005]

Oh my God it's so funny...

firstly he shows how should a drummer hold the sticks,and in this video he plays like a new drummer who plays for the first time...

[GMen1710]

He has horrible technique anyways, its better that he didn't show how since hes way wrong

[jconeal04]

looks like he's trading in his furniture for crappy sounding drums...haha..

[nomedeeps]

Go and trade your furniture for a brain.

[01department]

hey! at was that?

[Pettenderk]

Thank god he made a dozen video's 'working up' to this point...

[holyfatpidgeon]

Wow Drumming 101. Lol by the looks of his mental compatabilities that must have taken him about 3 days

[harisbukva]

commonman start playng!! enough talking!!!!  wtf.. so weird guy

[01drummerboy01]

come on MAN !!!!!!

[mangie222]

he should try playing open handed

[MUSICeasr]

he is teaching! camon...

[Garsound]

expertvillage is weird. how do you get a video on their channel?

[jesusdapnk1]

ur bass drum sounds like shit!!!

[OodleZOfNooDles]

all of em sound like shit, lmao

[NACHYOchese]

can anyone tell me a website to find the sheet music for iron man on the drums?

please =O!!

[drummerzachb888]

people are abit harsh about that guy. This video could probly teach beginners qite alot!

[4WhomMetallicaTolls]

Why is expert village always so poor quality?

[musiqqqqqq]

cheap.

[theAyax]

0:10 drumroll please

[SomeguynamedJOn]

you play the hi hat wrong

don't use ur whole arm retard

[3rdfriend]

the hihat top got a hole lol.

[minisubgun]

yo i can rock way better then you and you suck man you fucken suck

[BokBokSlayer]

Hes not trying you know, hes just showing beginners the basic drum beat.

[shadow9Ox]

u dont even use ur wrist..

[SomeguynamedJOn]

yah what an idiot

[sk8ersynistersean]

drum sucks in sound but good vid kinda

[dehomag]

Such beats doesn't need such a great explanation... Spinal Tap for drummers.

Sorry for my English.

[MaplePlayer3000]

ok 1st: you dipshits probably think you are better then him but your not every single one of you faggots sucks douche at the drums so everyone stfu2nd: this is for noobs obviusly, so just chill out and stop hating and lasty...your fucking bass drum gives me a headache so 1 get a new head and 2 put somthing other then fucking briks inside of it

[heinzie5]

lol expert village sucks ass

[nebben666]

there loads of variations of that beat such as play the bass on 1 'n' 3 and

[Kithicus1314]

wtf? hes talking like that takes years to master.

Most people should be able to do that their fist time in front of a kit.

[clanstead]

Yeah I can do that.

[dinkaDPB]

@Kithicus1314 hes not putting pressure on the viewer because pressure can easily turn off people. Also he says 'i dont expect you to do this right now' because hes trying to emphasis on learning things properly slowed down before speeding up. Accuracy is more important than speed. if you didn't know that. welcome to the real world.

EXACT timing and learning things at a slow place removes any flaws in the drumming.

[DrekorigV2]

@Kithicus1314 Completely agree with you, I just got my drum kit and I can do harder things than that!

[iluvmyaxe]

lol what stupid fat fuck expert village should be named lame people who not good enough to be in band lol

[GretschDrummer12]

the vid might not be great but u dont have to be a jerk

[SniffMyBunghole000]

you're an idiot. this video is perfect.

[iluvmyaxe]

sorry but i know one handed drummers who rock ur vid is not perfect and if u think it is perfect ur the idiot !

[SniffMyBunghole000]

sorry nut i'm intelligent enough to know how this is good for beginners and i'm smart enough to know that everyone does it their own way that works best for them. jackass.

[jesusdapnk1]

hahahaha ur fucking right!!

[pd116595]

wait, why do you play the bass drum twice on 3 and?

[diadora48]

thnx a ton that realy helped thnx:D:D:D

[kurtcobainb]

nice lesson man u helped me alote

[07rjw]

This is really helpful, thanks a lot!

[skatersillo]

cool ill stay in my guitar :] lol

[PurpleElephantFilms]

i hate the vintage sound hes using

[AlexVitus]

haha, you must have a really low self-confidence ;)

[bindelbum]

you prolly eat dick cheese for breakfast lunch and dinner

[07rjw]

haha

[DecoPortugal20]

rofl

[clanstead]

Lololol.

[WinglessPigThatFlies]

its a pretty easy beat but i mean when you think about it oldies and early classic rock... this would almost be a more advance beat

[Maldini89]

thanx a lot man..

[ifrit945]

pretty good lesson, found the bass drum sounds like shit tho

[billchess]

gay

[rockband1929]

these lessons suck i dont take lessons but i can tell i'm better then u

[Carlmasen]

only cuz hes trying to learn people the basics doesnt mean he cant play better himself, he held the tempo good so i would say hes a good drummer, and everything he says is truth

[thech3rry]

maybe we should do dont done it later? lol?

only trying to learn people the basicS? wtf isen't is only cuase he's trying to teach.. you duffer. lol

[DrUmMeRsC]

Hes a pro, you are shit compared to him, dont get coxky uncle fucker

[TheMarsVolta2112]

I just farted to his 4/4

[XHiddenXForceX]

lol -.- Why would he do lessons if he was crap and why would u be watching it if it was crap?!

[Kobeownzu81]

obviously hes better than this, hes teaching beginners. he has a double bass, so i bet he plays harder stuff than this

[GENEZI5]

Fat lol--

[yaycamel95]

thanks you realy helped

[crazyboy36566]

wow... tune your drums... your high-hat sounds like crap... ive had my drum set for a day and am better than what you are playing... but im not better than you i bet... i still suck at drums but still.

[chipsisachip]

errr, you cant really tune a hi hat.

[wulfshayde]

Don't judge sabians on these cheapies. I use Sabian AAX, I play death, metalcore, and thrash. Not only can they take a massive amount of abuse, and sound great both live and recording. I noticed he has a notch in his high hats, pretty good indication that they've been beat to hell and in no way represents Sabians as they should sound when you don't go budget.

[plopenstien]

that hi-hat sounds awful. its official im never getting sabians

[m1loarevalo]

Tune your base drum!

[oOoOViperOoOo]

its called Bassdrum, but your right lol

[Drock1994]

I like the snare sound, the snares are lose and it gives it that eco sound, its awsome!

[CoolItisBand]

tune your drums man.

[DanJC93]

Drumbeat For Dude Looks Like A Lady-Aerosmith Btw.. & Its Only So Slow Coz It Makes It Easier For Beginners, As Its 1 Of 1st Rhythms You Learn, & After 3 Years I Still Play Most New Rhythms @ Similar Speed, Easier To Play It Right Slow, Then Speed It Up..

[diexico]

2.27 thats truth i started playing drums since i was 5 and i got my first drumset at the age of 15 ..i wanna encourage people to practice even do if you dont have a drum set just get a pillow or even a mouse pad and start practicin those 8th note rlrlrlrlrlrl..lol but yeah keep practicing..know im touring with a famous christian band called rojo.nice vid! GOD bless you all.

[cedric140990]

[chunkportnoy]

hahaha christian band... you fail at life

[diexico]

haha you are funny..let me tell you something, i travel around the world with that band..now let me ask you, who do you play with?.

[chunkportnoy]

thats not the point... but i would rather play with anyone then some pussy christan band

[diexico]

hahahah..shutup talk to me when you get to travel with your band

hahahahahahahah..

[metalmagazine]

Deus me livre que som de bumbo horroroso...

[wraith99999999999]

Yo, I think your stoned he sucks at drums, I learnd a faster version of that beat in 5 mins....+ his set sucks

[dufour44]

[KizMonkey69]

[HeBangsTheDrumsLoud]

[LIANNERW]
