If you're going to start drumming - start here! A simple but very effective rock groove that's easy to learn and a lot of fun to play. Points to note whilst playing are to try and introduce a 'swing' feel on the hi-hats and play as laid back as you can. Terrific to play if you're just starting out (like me) as you'll learn it in no time and get a real sense of achievement in playing it right!
This was the first YouTube outing of my 18" Dream Bliss Crash/Ride - it's the cymbal furthest to my right and it sounds amazing. It's completely hand hammered with a traditional finish and is substantially cheaper than most other professional quality cymbals. Unfortunately its now covered in white marks from my Travis Barker signature sticks! So I changed to Pro-Mark 5B's when recording the cover.
By the way the background track is set very quiet in a vain attempt not to annoy any copyright holders. Hope it works.....
......As you can tell by the advertisments it didn't!
