@@scottwareham6987 Scotty dooo! Thank you man.

@@tilapiapodre hey man, that is great to hear. If you lean towards something, you should just go for it. I know that the first time I saw a drum kit and was taught how to play one beat, that was absolutely it and I would spend all my time sat on my bed not even with a drumkit listening to the drums on all my favourite albums and trying to copy what I heard. This was of course long before the Internet was a thing but I still think that is one of the most useful things you can do when you are starting out. I would spend a great deal of time listening to other drummers and trying to identify at least which parts of the kit they are using so that you can take leaves out of their books, so to speak. this is where a lot of the FUN comes from. Learning how to sit properly for your body and hold the sticks and use good technique with your hands and feet is also really really important as it will keep you healthier on the drums and also allow you to do more, but the real fun comes from paying a lot of attention to music at what the drums are doing within the music, and really trying your best to re-create that - and eventually it will become your own thing. There is so much other advice I could give you, but if you were just starting out then I would say that this is some of the best stuff that you can always come back to and just keep with you for your entire drumming career.

@adamstanleydrummer7532 man, that was awesome to hear! really motivated me more to rlly go for the drums, thx man! ill follow on your advice and do my best to be the best i can be, thanks a lot man! have a good one, keep the great content up!

@ you're welcome man

@@MarcelinoManriqueYebra very kind, thank you man!

@@edanhayhurst5589 thanks dude, i hate it now but appreciate you having a watch

@@joehoffrage lol cheers for that Mr Fudd!

Shot Brad!

SAMMEE

I could probably upload the drum cam footage, if not I can try do a full play through. However, I did change some of the parts as I sort of played it in a hurry for my cover. So some of the fills etc aren't exactly as their drummer plays them.

@@bluephoenix1911 I appreciate that thanks man!

Thank you; it was mostly done as a bit of a joke but glad you appreciated it. I think if you want to play drums, get yourself a drum throne, a pedal or double pedal, and maybe play along to albums using your bed as a kit. I did this when I started to show my parents I was serious and eventually they got me a kit.

Ah cheers dude!

@@chall3038 sadly not. The music is licensed by Sony South Africa, and there has been some hangup with The releasing it on streaming platforms. Unfortunately, I have no more information than this as I wasn’t part of doing that deal, but it is basically just a licensing thing. Quite frustrating as I would love to keep sharing it.

@@chall3038 I’ll tell you what, let me upload it to a dropbox from the CD that I have, and I can share it with you that way. Please send me a direct message and we can sort it out that way.

Thank you bro! Yeah I love their music, seem like nice dudes too

Oh dude you’re probably right but I did this about 4 years ago in a few takes! Cheers for watching though.

What snare are you using? Sounds great.

Thank you!

Cheers Stu; I can do it a lot better these days!

@@adamstanleydrummer7532 i know, you killed it at Chester a couple of weeks ago 🤘

Indeed! I mean I did this video to sort of sell myself as a teacher or recording drummer, but what you've said is mostly true!

I'd agree that a good band is largely defined by a good drummer and a good vocalist, but the best music is always the perfect mix of everyone's contributions. My video's about drums but really, I just like songs.

no band without a guitar, it does everything

If you’re torn between guitar and drums, maybe you’d be a great bass guitarist. 🤔

And bass is a great instrument for a singer.

Hey dude, sorry for the late reply. I sometimes forget I made this video! So, I can't advise properly as I've not heard you play or sing or whatever. I wouldn't really think about it in terms of limits or absolutes. I mostly play drums, but I sing and play guitar and write songs a lot too. To me, the song is more important than the musicians and even sometimes the musicianship. If the song rules, people will remember it. I think go with whatever is grabbing your attention and practice the shit out of it - OR you could practice alternating instruments on alternating days, make a little schedule for yourself, and see how that goes? I strongly recommend recording yourself playing so you can honestly hear where you're at and what you need to work on (or how you've improved!) - and maybe that will show you where to focus. Playing and singing is NEVER a bad thing - too many bands rely on the lead singer, and remember back in the day, everyone in the band used to be a singer. Like the Beatles or the Beach Boys. It's sort of lost these days. I hope that helps. Just try not to get too distracted and work hard and be honest with yourself about where you're at.

@@adamstanleydrummer7532 Thanks! Ill try my best :)

i have this exact problem. Anyways i know some bands that are self-producing and use a bunch of random instuments and mix different genres, but when playing live, they convert everything into the rock genre and take turns drumming/singing. maybe you could learn all and do that so it's not as limited to "im the drummer" and "Shes the guitarist".

Ah shot Dave! Yes they write awesome tunes. Very like nostalgic but fresh at the same time. Not super big but have done some big things. From Ireland.

Yeah man! Drums and vocals are what really make bands sound good. It’s all important but if you’re got a good drummer and a good singer I feel like that’s much of the battle won. It depends on the music and the musicians, but think about most good rock bands: drummer and singer are good! Cheers for watching my dumb ass video.

@@adamstanleydrummer7532 yeah man, I’ve been listening to a lot of Jazz and the difference is night and day really. Loved the video man keep up the good work

@@QuantumZephyr yeah man! Well I appreciate it, it was just a bit of fun.

Thanks man! That's a great compliment.

Ah thank you so much for that! Just piggybacking off the great Vinnie Paul.

yeah man, it has a lot of nostalgia for me!

thanks man! I actually changed it recently. A little simpler, things further apart...

Yeah brother. My best mate. He passed away on 2/8/15.

@@jonnyfowle6430 ahh so sorry man. I used to roll with Greg back in the day. Good guy and may his soul RIP.

Thanks my dude!

Thanks man! lol I’m not sure I did. They often allow you to publish videos but you can’t monetise them.

Yeah dude it’s quite an intrusive thing; I’m blessed to have a studio outside.

The answer is obvious. Move!

Why thank you

Yes! Isn’t it hilarious? I tried to make “content” here and I have to agree, it’s fucking shit isn’t it.

I forgot to add, “you troll coward” 😂 and so, in the words of Brick Top, “now fuck off!” 🤣

thank you!!!

Ah thanks man; this was so long ago now that I'm glad someone still thinks it's good!

Yes but it's been a chore to sync the video and sound as they're off a VHS. I'll make an effort, I promise!

@@adamstanleydrummer7532 please do 🙏🙏

@@adamstanleydrummer7532 a capture card may help if you haven't tried that yet

Ok

Very kind man, that guy is incredible!
