Originally made for a nephew who was just starting out and didn't have a drum teacher, covers holding the sticks, paradiddles, rolls (open and closed), basic drum beat and fill and using a hi-hat splash.

What kind of drums did you use here?

[ScoopDeville04]

@MatzuzakiLois In the video I'm playing a set of Roland V-Drums. They have the TD-10 brain with the TDW-1 expansion kit.

i want a drum kit but my mom will not lets me get one

@michael79331 Start smaller, ask for drum sticks. Practice drum rudiments, learn to roll. You can even "fake" a drum kit, play your right hand on a pot, your left hand on a pad, tap your foot for the bass drum. Prove your serious. A lot of parents know they'll buy a kit and six months later it won't get used. Other parents don't want the noise. I used to drape towels over my cymbals and drums.

Exactly what I was looking for. I don't have drums but I have this Rubber thingy you put on your knee to hit with your drum sticks and I wanted to actually learn something.

Thank you soo much! I've been wanting to learn to play for a long time, and I have finally gotten the nerve to sneak on my Dad's drums, when he's at work. Now I have found someone to teach me!

@michael79331 ask for an electric one

[OGparadise13]

@michael79331 get electronic ones:) you can use head phones, luckily i have the garage so i have a real premier berch wood set



[HighrockTendales]

@michael79331 Bet you don't want a drum kit any more?

[RhetoricalOblivion]

You know what would REALLY be awesome? If you could put text on the video with what he's saying when he's drumming because you CAN'T HEAR WHAT HE'S SAYING. So frustrating to watch.
