If you get chance, please check out the recent interview I did with Drum Education Live: ruclips.net/video/dWmxIZVfaZA/видео.html. Would really appreciate you giving it a watch/like/comment if you can (you don't have to sit through the whole thing unless you want to!). Thank you to all who have watched it 🙂
Exactly the tutorial I was looking for. Just moved into a house for the first time in years and finally have a permanent drum setup I can play whenever I want. Once I fully settle into this house I’m gonna practice as much as possible and become the best drummer I can.
Dude! I’m about to be in the same situation! About to get settled into my house with some roommates who appreciate what I’m trying to do with the drums and I’ll be able to practice whenever I freaking want which will be as much as possible. Can’t wait to practice hours on end every day!! Hope the best for you in your drumming journey mate!!
Once again Mike breaks down an awesome song into bite size pieces. A lot of rock sounds harder than it is, but you have to break it down right. This song is definitely like that with its intense filling through out the song. You can't cheat on the fills in this song, it won't sound right. Thanks Mike.
Great lesson as ever Mike. The fill sounds pretty good at all beats per min… I could manage it if playing a bit slower and will defo look to use this on slower songs. Buy you a coffee soon by the way

man I have to say it's really cool that you did this. I asked for this I think almost a year ago or so when you did the book version of No One Knows from the Trinity Rock grade 5. Really love your teaching, when I have some time I'm going to become a member. Again, thank you so much. Playing this song in its entirety is one of my life long drum goals.
The song that made the Herta famous was like 15 years earlier on Van Halens Hot for Teacher in 1984 and there are alot of earlier uses of the Herta too.
This is great, thanks. Following this I've found the best way to pick it up is to first concentrate on playing the triplets R-R-L- to get the intervals correct around the kit before attempting to add the second note for RLR-L- . Getting anywhere near the tempo is way beyond my ability though
dear Mike, I'm learning this hit and I'm struggling! Could you please explain the way you always do the other fills, before the refrain? I would really appreciate! Thank you very much
I mean, you *could* do, if you like - the Herta is traditionally a single stroke thing and I think that gives a great, powerful feel for this definite "rock" moment in this tune. So I'd definitely do singles. But you do as you like and thanks for watching man.
@@nickbauman7753 Yes that's a Swiss Army Triplet! I'd say here the first 2 notes are a little more spaced out than a flam, even at speed, and are also at the same volume as each other, whereas in a flam they're usually played quiet/loud. I'd recommend doing it this way, but it's close though and if it works for you, go for it! Cheers.
Thanks for watching, it's not a flam though. The first 2 notes have a distinct evenly-spaced 16th note feel. Video about hertas here: ruclips.net/video/id7u7ksBtI4/видео.htmlfeature=shared Cheers!
@@MikeBarnesDrums Isn't it getting into flam territory at higher tempos though? When you break it down slowly, it is a 16th note signature, but at the faster tempo you could just call it a flam. Correct me if I'm wrong. Will check the video too.
@@Ash_Hudson I'd say definitely not, because the point of a flam is to thicken/fatten up a single note. The two hits in a flam are slightly separated and start at different stick heights (the grace note is played from a lower height). The second/main note of a flam is on the intended beat, and the first, softer note "grace" note lands just before the intended beat, to fatten it up. Like the four flams in the opening fill of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" - ruclips.net/video/H7z4sngeZGg/видео.htmlfeature=shared. In "No One Knows", the first of of the two quicker notes is definitely landing on a defined beat, has clear separation from the second note, and the two notes have clear note value of 16ths within the 8th note triplet flow, even at full tempo. And they're played at the same volume. Cheers!
@@MikeBarnesDrums I actually play the herta fill on No One Knows pretty well, but I always felt like I was doing a phat flam, plus two extra notes for the fill. I did just go back and listen to No One Knows and I can actually hear the clear separation you're talking about now. My mistake. This is why I said I'm not the drum teacher here, lol. Thanks for the info, mate.
Thanks for watching. It is based on triplets - the basic triplet pulse is demonstrated at 0:59. Then one note is added between the first two notes of the triplet each time, to make a so-called "herta". The count becomes "1+trip let, 2+trip let, 3+trip let, 4+trip let". Nice article about the triplet-y nature of the herta here: www.onlinedrummer.com/drum-lessons/drum-fill-9-the-herta/

I didn’t know Willem Dafoe was so good at drums!

I’ve been drumming for hours everyday! Reverse of your situation about to move in to a much smaller place so trying to enjoy it while I can 😢
When he played it live at Glastonbury, Grohl definitely finishes the fill on the floor tom as you have played it here.
👍🏻
Mate...seriously. You have nailed this down so good, Ive watched so may videos on this fill.. You nailed it easy THANK you so much !!!!!!!!
Great video. I always think of the Herta as just being "Very fast slow" 3 beats each of the "Very fast" syllables then one for the "slow" beat.

Love this the way you repeat it fast slow and medium is brilliant
Wow! Mike love the rolls around the kit!
Yup
Love the Herta, it just fell into place one day recently‼️thanks as ever ✌️🌻
Fabulous Mike .

this explanation finally clicked it for me, excellent lesson thank you!
Brilliant Mike, love your videos!!!!
Fantastic break down!! Thank you, this has helped greatly 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Love this. Thank you Mike.
glad this turned on my recomended, love your energy
Really excellent tutorial. Thank you, Mike! 🙏🏼
Another fantastic lesson. Thank you for doing this fill at slower and faster tempos. Makes learning much easier 🍻
Great lesson, man. I"'m going to work on this. Start slowly and build speed day by day. Cheers!
I've gotten even older than I thought. I'd never even heard this song. YOIKS!
Ha! One of THE rock tunes of the 2000s! Thanks for watching Steve.
Really helpful. Thank you ever so much!!! 👊

Nice, yeah that'd work. And totally cool - improvement zone all the way, just enjoy the process of building it over time :)
Yup!👍🤘🏼

Im struggling with this fill! Would you recommend practicing the song at slower tempos and then working my way up to the original?
ruclips.net/video/HDQKI-RTBLg/видео.htmlfeature=shared
🤘
Oh god i always heard it as flam triplets
VALEUU LINDOOOO
Would you recommend the herta with a RRLR/LLRL sticking to keep with the triplet feel?
I mean, you *could* do, if you like - the Herta is traditionally a single stroke thing and I think that gives a great, powerful feel for this definite "rock" moment in this tune. So I'd definitely do singles. But you do as you like and thanks for watching man.
@@MikeBarnesDrums Thanks mate. I will stick to the single stroke then!👌
Hard to get it up to speed and clean
For whatever it’s worth to anyone, I’ve seen him do it live twice and it’s…
Snare-rack-snare-rack-snare-rack-rack-floor.
Is it possible to use a Swiss army flam triplet for this fill as well?
Wouldn’t have the same rhythm though, surely?
@@MikeBarnesDrums I don t know I just watched a video and another guy was doing it for this song
@@MikeBarnesDrums goes flam right left
@@nickbauman7753 Yes that's a Swiss Army Triplet!

Great drummer, great teacher, but tune those damn drums!
Cheers! And ha, I agree these sound nothing like the drums on the record. Was just a demo of the fill is all. Thanks for watching Andreus 🙏🏻
I would teach it as "flam + 1 + 2", but then I'm not a drum teacher lmao. In my mind, I feel like that would be easier. Great job anyway.

Hertas? Sound more like triplets

Beware of Mr. Barnes.
Not the whole fill. Disappointed
