@cantana23 a herta is like a drag ( LLR RRL) and a grandma is a paradiddle tap but you accent all the lefts.

[cantana23]

sorry to interrupt your argument (even though you eventually agreed an stuff BUT...

what in the world is Herta or a Grandma? i've heard some pretty crazy rudiments such as chin-cheeses and swiss triplet rudimacue..but what the HELL is a Herta or a Grandma?

if you could tell me how stick, that would be awesome (let alone a count pattern)

i just wanna know...even tho i'm in the front ensemble at my school ^^

I'm guessing you are the first section leader that pushes the drumline. the real affective advice I could offer is to practice ALL throughout winter, thats the #1 way a drumline can get real good, and thoses who don't usually have a lot of members that end up losing their chops. Also, work on different accent patterns to get better stick control.

Hey man, I should've been more open to advice. I appreciate the advice. Thanks for the help. If you have any more advice let me know.

[rhssnare]

You know, i have respect for you now. You sound like you know what your talking about, and I might have been a little harsh in some areas. you obviously have still a lot of work to do, but best of luck to you.

I said some hybrids, I'm not dumb, I know theres a lot of them to remember. I just started working on dynamics this year with my drumline, because each year we've had a shitty captain. I do the 4 basic stick heights and 3 different zones. And they've gone a long way. I'm still teaching them the normal rudiments. A few drummers in my line know hybrids like Herta's and Grandma's. I'm still teaching how to listen to each other. Give me a break I know I have work to do.

[rhssnare]

They can play all of the normal rudiments, and you can't expect them to know all the hybrid rudiments, but they can play grandmas and fufives, any decent drumline can play a few hybrids. And sticks heights should be uniform anyway. tell them, 3 inches, 6, 9, 12, any good drumline should be able to keep uniform stick heights, even in a few MINUTES advance!

[drumlines4life]

Ok, first of all I had a little while to really prepare for this pep rally so I couldn't really control stick heights in the snare line. My bass line knows dynamics ok so don't assume. The point of this pep rally is to have a lot of energy, yes they may have pounded hard but they were having fun. Where the hell do you see a one handed Casey Brohard roll? Never expect a drumline to know all 40 rudiments and some hybrids. I highly doubt your drumline does.
