Ask and you shall receive. Now I have to learn it LOL. The book is on the way, can't wait.

I like your teaching concepts Jeff. Please give us more cool information to work on. I was fortunate enough to see Billy in clinic at Sam Ash in Cherry Hill NJ about 25 years ago, and that experience still inspires my drumming to this day 🥁

I didn't look at your PDF or really delve into the details yet because I'm at work listening to this, but I wonder how many eighths are there total? You said the Hi Hat played one every three of them gone by. I'm wondering is this a 5th Tuplet thing nested in a phrase of 4 in 6. LOL, I know crazy. I was thinking this because I'm listening to the Riff that Jan Hammer the keyboard player is playing. I know a lot of drummers myself included try to cop stuff the melodic players are playing, and Jan Hammer their Keyboard player was also a very good drummer. Check out some of his solo albums such as Like Children ruclips.net/video/9S6GYwE3jxc/видео.html etc., Anyway the guy had serious rhythmic Vocabulary himself. ; ) Who knows. Another funny question i had is could one play all the eighths on the hi-hat and play this other stuff between your left hand and your foot. Be rough i would imagine but seems like something Virgil Donati might try. or guys like this www.tfront.com/p-510364-rhythm-book-superimposition-and-subdivision-metric-modulation-feel-modulation-and-displacement.aspx Crazy stuff out there, you never know. books.google.com/books/about/Metric_Modulations.html?id=sRkxDwAAQBAJ Thanks, i really enjoyed this and your broke it down so clearly i could do it in my car. Thanks again!!!

Well done! Now take this paradiddle idea, add some David Garibaldi twists and turn it into mind blowing fills or grooves; i.e. inward and reverse - you know what I mean!

Great stuff Jeff 🥁💪🏻 That’s a classic - thanks for sharing 🙏🏻 Just to be sure, Billy would actually be playing it open handed - right ?

Great lesson Jeff!

Fantastic lesson, Jeff! Emperor Cobham has always, for lack of a better word, frightened me. The combination of technical and musical skills is almost too much for any mortal man. But you have now opened the door just a smidge and given me an even greater appreciation of the man. Now I’m off to work on note values and phrasing, because when it comes to those, I bullied past your mantras and went straight to the “sucking” part.

Awesome, this guy was a hero for me I'm in late 60s thanks so much!! Another killer book is called the music of mahauvishunu Orchestra has all the parts his too and scales and modes to use to solo.. super cool book. Deep

Fantastic job...Thanks man!😊

Don't give up. Just start slow. I'm a lefty so I have to reverse it. Think about that

Nice skill bro, respect.

Great channel Jeff … you are an awesome teacher! Great meeting you today with Mike Fasano … oh I subbed today! 👍🏻😎

Can you break double bass I'm the one Van Halen

Jeff, Happy New Year from down under. (Australia} Just want to let you know that I'm not receiving any of the PDFs. Love your teaching.

A very good introduction to double bass playing.

Do have any more Danny Carey videos

The Nested Tuplets possibilities are limitless (for fills, grooves and more haha). A Sick and Great idea from the Master Steve Smith

PERFECTTTRR

Umm... Your foot cam makes it look like you have Rickets😮😮😢😢 maybe no fish eye lens on the feet next time. Just saying .

I just found your channel... Great thing happening!!! Thank you.

3:59was clean asf Pls do a tutorial 🥺

I just cant seem to get it lined up. I'm trying to get there, but I am no where near in time. And speed wise- ugh. I need more help with this. Badly. Have to have it learned before spring...going on tour in March!

Great lesson Jeff! I have a huuge question, it is about trying to create drum parts as a drummer for songs I am a drummer that plays in church so I play all the time with a band and I have to be creative and come with parts that fit the song, serve the music, etc.. Often times I get frustrated that even though I practice drumming exercises like grooves for kick control, grooves with different ride variations, studying different sticking patterns to use them as drum fills, and so forfth, I feel like I can't use them the way I would like in songs... I don't know, it feels that when playing with a band or along to a song, you have to focus on the song so my mind is occupied and it becomes harder to do transitions, different variations of the grooves and so forfth..I would say about myself that I sound a little bit too repetitive with my grooves and fills.. any ideas on how I can combat this little anxiety when interpreting songs on drums? I always had this issue and I want to become more free😅 I was thinking about instead of practicing with a metronome my grooves, fills and ideas, to play them maybe with song or drumless loops? Like playing one measure groove, one measure drum fill, starting fills on different parts of the beat, stuff like that... Thanks Jeff!

Nice tutorial. Sadly, I'm approaching the end of a over 40 year Music career. I started in the 8th grade playing school dances, and I never stopped. I'd like to continue playing, but I'm having trouble moving my equipment around due to rheumatoid arthritis. It sucks to get old. I used to carry the hardware bag on my shoulder. Now I'm having trouble lifting it. Any ideas?

Awesomeness

Great job Jeff. Your lessons are very helpful with the way you break them down. In some ways that fill reminds me of the fill Bonham does just before the solo in Black Dog.

Is that a real wood on the walls ,behind of you?🤔 ✌🏼😎🤟🏼 If it is lokks really good, and also , should have a ver acoustic sound,, i think so,,?😎

Excellent scaffolding again in this lesson. A variation once the basic pattern is mastered would be for the left hand: FT-Tom1-Tom2-FT-Snare-T1-T2-FT (repeat) keeping the right hand the same. Sounds absolutely sick.

Great lesson! I try to tell other drummers that having s fouble bass pedal opens up a whole other advancement in our drumming!

This is GREAT!!!

Love Alex. Not a double bass pioneer though. You talk waaay too much.

Double bass from Alex vanhalen on electronic drum pads. Come on he's a loser

Another great lesson and 'concept' to take it even futher! 👍

Play shuffles with your feet.

I learned all the Van Halen when it came out

All the DETAIL! I now comprehend several variations of the mysterious "Rosanna Shuffle" ! Jeff your lessons are very helpful and inspiring to me . Please notify me Every TIME

That sounds WAY better than my interpretation which i developed as a kid on my first kit. Its amazing how many ways there are to orchestrate that wrongly. Thank you😂

Great video. You really broke down the fill into manageable portions to practice and then put it all together at the end. You also included variations. Excellent scaffolding! Alex Van Halen seems to have been heavily inspired by Bohnam. This fill is almost verbatim taken from a Bohnam fill. I forget what song it was.

Your a Beast...thx Jeff😊

Just awesome

Jeff your instruction is once again is so great on the breakdown of things. Wish I could start instructing like this in my studio. Thanks buddy this was great. An iconic song reference too!

I love this channel! Thanks Jeff. Keep me NOTIFIED 😮

Great lesson, great left-hand workout and fills! hope to see more weakness-related lessons like this in the future!

To open RUclips and see there was a new lesson from Jeff Bowders...well there's something to be thankful for!

c'mon

That last variation is just stupid

Always loved this song and this fill. Really great ideas to expand on it. Another of Alex’s fills that I love is the one that sets up the guitar solo in Dreams. Not sure if it’s a herta with the hands or if he’s bringing the feet in as well. Tough to hear on those Simmons pads. Thanks for this lesson, Jeff. Alex is the reason I started playing drums. I think he’s still way underrated.

Great lesson as per usual!

Awesomeness brother, great job

Nice. Great to see your subscriber count really coming up. Happy Thanksgiving.
