are those toms both the same? they both look like floor toms? :S

can you enlighten me as to the sticking of that quick tom fill that's played at 0:25? I can't figure it out and it's making me feel really stupid.

Ben i don't actually have a kit of my own but i would love to learn drums,
i've managed to teach myself a few things by watching your videos and hitting pretty much anything i can find in my room but do you actually think i could learn drums this way?
also how often a day do you practice (or used to practice)

Yea hitting pillows etc is a great way to start to learn the basics of following a drum pattern. Dave Grohl learned the drums by hitting pillows. The only problem is you don't get much feel and response as you would from a real drum kit.
Practice is a very important thing for a beginner. I used to practice every spare moment I could get. Also you should listen to alot of music and try and figure out what that drummer is doing.

So yea, get a kit, get a DVD showing you the basics of drumming them away you go. Maybe even have lessons if your really that serious about it.

I learned some treat tips from him. Mainly drum from your wrists and try and save energy. He wanted to try and get me to read music, but I felt that was a step backwards as i've never done it before!
But mainly I play by watching drummers and by ear.
Thanks
Ben
