      I totally agree, I played on the worship team for about 20 years, I’ve known the musicians a lot longer than that, even after all that time I would never touch anyone’s instrument without getting permission first, the guitarists and bass players would always joke and tell me it was fine and I didn’t need to ask permission, it didn’t matter to me, it was all about respect, a man’s guitar or bass or instrument is like his woman, you don’t touch. I always got permission before playing bass or guitar with someone else’s instrument. It’s respect.

      No only drummers that are total DB, s are like that . Obviously that was rehearsed & them drums are paid for by a TV conglomerate that's worth billions of dollars. If he broke a stick or drum head it's covered. I play and don't mind if a friend sits behind my kit. Most people are timid when they try the drums for the first time or if it's someone else's kit.Levitt just played em like Dave Grohl cuz he can play.

For example hitting them too hard and when I just started playing drums I cracked one of my cymbals because I didn't know much about how to play. See how he's not playing with wrists but rather trashing his arms around. That can lead to cymbals deteriorating as well. It was scary to watch this as it felt like at any given moment the cymbals could crack and they're nice cymbals.
      Edit: I didnt mean to not only play with wrist all the time. I meant that he was throwing his arms around as if he were trying to swatt a fuckton of flies or midges away

    The very first piece of advice a pro drummer gave me as I was starting to learn was use a light touch. If you can play a beat at a whisper, it really helps build stick control, and makes it possible to have a more dynamic groove, instead of playing at one volume the whole time. You can't use accents if you're just hitting everything as hard as you can. I'm also self taught, though I have had the opportunity to have professional drummers critique my playing and throw me some pointers.

    I learned to play drums by tapping my index fingers on a CD player I held in my hands as I rode the school bus. By the time I actually sat behind a kit it all came naturally. Once you learn the coordination and patterns, the rest is easy.

      @johnmiller2132 8 лет назад +8

      but there's a lot to learn in regards to controlling how hard you hit and where you hit it to get the right tone. I don't consider that easy.

    • @rjones6801
      @rjones6801 8 лет назад +6

      John Miller yes dynamics, stick control, etc aren't possible, but I think the first obstacle you face is coordination. You don't need a drum set for that.

      yeah good thing about drums is you can still practice some beats and fills when you are away from the drums .. I get to play on my set every month for 2 days or so but I practice rudiments and beats on foot or pillow .
