no i haven watched drum line, just felt rudiments to be important to play effectively on a drumset, and i thought a drum corp might be a gd way to improve my rudiments..
hey yosh..
u have to watch drumline man..though while watchin the first time..u can already spot so many errors in the acting...but hell the drumming is hell good.. i watched it over 15 times... (i'm such a dork) but hell...at least i can play every snare trick in that show and much more..
i oso wanna join a national drum corps if there is one.. drumline has changed my perspective of drumming.. now when i jam..i'm so obsessed with drum corps style that i incoorporate it into my jamming sessions... just some lame shit i like to do.. yea
a very common stick trick is the three-way-backsticking. u can go check out jeff's queen videos on www.vicfirth.com yea.. very common trick..and i just love to do that..
