  • Just to be clear, I am RIGHT handed but play open handed. Thanks for all the great comments. You guys are the best. Keep drumming!

  • Thank you everyone for the kind comments. BTW, I'm not left-handed! I just learned "wrong". I never understood why anyone would cross their arms?!?!? ;-)

  • Actually, the style you use is called "open handed."

    Don't know if you're a Dave Matthews fan, but his drummer uses the same technique.

  • foxkieran: Yes I'm a huge Carter Beauford fan, but I played "open handed" long before DMB was popular. I am self-taught and simply learned "wrong". ;-)

  • nice job. but you need to practice a little better stick control with the right hand. do you see how your hits on the snare are a little loose, problem with that style is over time, you can develop carpal tunnel syndrome faster.

    otherwise excellent job.

  • Uh...I've been playing this way for 20 years. So I'm not worried about Carpal Tunnel Syndrome or anything else. I'm very comfortable and loose when I play. But thanks for the comment!

  • Dude you kick ass! You didn't learn wrong at all. You're just doing your thing man. It's great! Nice technique and all the fills are very clean. Never stop playing.

  • fack that was gud

  • @foxkieran also "Gas Lipstick" from HIM does as well. I don't think there is technically a right or wrong way to play drums. You play the way that makes you feel the most comfortable. I learned cross-armed, but can see the benefit of playing open armed.

  • how old is your pearl set

  • @avayatrue

    There's nothing "wrong" on it.

    PS.: Your playing is awesome.

  • Hi hat stand is dancing because it is loving your playing

  • Great job man!!

  • @foxkieran
