Great instructional!! Thank you!

[mythfits]

You're very welcome. It's never too late to find our groove!

[MetaGrrrl]

This looks enormously helpful! Thank you from someone trying to get the rhythm under her skin. :)

p.s. Isn't it impressive how much volume you can get out of an iPhone?

[mythfits]

I don't have an iPhone, but I have noticed that. Glad to hear that this was useful to you.

I keep "coming in too soon" when I sing with a band, didn't know before that there was an exercise (or cure?) for this, THANKS.

Dude, this is a great exercise for rhythm. My timing and sense of rhythm in general is much better, and it's apparent in my music. Thanks!!

[deftdrummer]

Thanks so much for this! Would be a good warmup before you even touch the drums. Just don't let your bandmates see if you if you're in a death metal band =)

what speed is the metronome...60 per min?
