Purdie's influence will never be fully realised...

I have my doorbell rigged to play this riff....and now it's my new cell ringtone! My car plays it when my door's ajar; it's my selected computer sound for "left mouse click"; my home alarm blares it for intruders; I play it into the speaker at fast food joints when they ask for my order; I replaced my car horn with it...and rewired the town tornado sirens to play it for approaching twisters. Any other suggestions?

@eggo63 rewire the school bells so that it plays for class changes.

@BamBamBib ...severe diarrea, tornados, drunks and probably most crossdressers constitute "obvious"...short, wart covered creatures that dwell under bridges are only obvious if they are visible so what exactly is the point here sweetie?

[BamBamBib]

@MightySaturn5 Obvious troll is obvious.

@Hamgammy Purdie is THE man!

Lady Gaga taught this guy roughly 12% of what she knows with regards to drums and drumming however he was a bit dense and had comprehension issues, sadly he took his own life due to severe depression brought on by Gaga's abilities far surpassing his own

Can someone SPLAIN this beat to me?

@eggo63 Would be great to hear this went put on hold on the phone by some company. Could wait for half a day on this :-).

Fool in the Rain...at least that's what it sounds like to me.

@Iteachpercussion Ahh well, it's ok! It hasn't the same name here in italy :S Thank you!

@FabioMetalDrummer The hi hat is playing triplets with the middle not missing. The first hi hat note is the quarter note(main beat). Normally the snare would then be on 2 and 4, bass on 1 and 3. Enhanced with grace notes and other bass notes. However, what happens here is that the snare and bass occur only once a measure instead of twice a measure. So the snare is on beat 3 and the bass is 1 and the last triplet note of 4 in each measure. This gives the groove the half time name.
