Thanks a lot for this. It's really helped.

Any chance of a lesson on Tempting Time? I really wanna learn how to play that.

@rabbb78 Just grab the transcript from my website mate... You might slowly learn how to read as well! :)

Hi. You probably don't have to count the rhythm anymore, as you have practice many times the song, but when you learned, for instance, the beat displacement part, how do you keep track of the notes you have to play and when you have to play them? You just count and then memorize, or do you have any other tip? thanks.

@StromboliKicks hey man, it was more getting comfortable with the feet and then just feeling and knowing where the hands fell within the original pulse

[Thyrtien]

can you do some Animals As Leaders for us? =o

[wrightdrumlessons]

@Thyrtien yes animals will be in the next lot of videos :)

If I don't see your drumming Tuition DVD in shops within 10 years, theres something wrong with the world

[linfoxjd]

I can't get the ghost notes, you kinda just skipped over them haha. "Now just add the ghost notes". Far out! Maybe I just suck.

[MetalStormUnit]

God dammit... You are such a great drummer! \m/
