I'm going to try and ask a question about the very first bar from the score that I have... bear with me! flam > 5SR>5SR>flam>TRPLT>left stroke Now my question is about the very ending there. It seems like you play it as a 4 single stroke roll. The way my score reads is that it should be a quick triplet, pause for a second, then the left hand single note. Does that make sense? Like I'm interpreting the score as a quick triplet THEN a single stroke left: RLR wait L And what you're doing is: R-L-R-L Am I reading the score wrong? It looks like a 16th note triplet then an 8th note shot to end it. I'm new at reading sheet music :| Thanks in advance.
First of all, thank you for the question. :-) However the first part is Flam>7SR etc Which is the Triplet & rhythm with the first 3 notes buzzed And the triplet & needs to be 4 even notes. The current note value tells you how far away the next one is. Therefore, the irst 3 notes all have the same value. The 4th note is an 8th note, so now you wait a half beat before you can play again. The final roll of the line is a 13 stroke roll. I play 2 triplets and then a tap. The first 6 notes are buzzed. If we increased the tempo very much we might reconsider making these rolls duple, but as it stands, they are all triplet based. I hope this answers your questions Cheers! I hope this helps
Enjoy your next new adventure. What are you planning on next? Something new? But be careful, it might require change. Fair warning. (sorry internet snark creeps in sometimes) But, change is inevitable. It is how we grow.

Thank you 💝 amazingly helpful. Could I ask the tempo?
It should roughly be around 80-82 bpm, atleast what me and my band played it as
Yes of course! This is played at 78bpm
Where’s your metronome set?
78 BPM
Do you know where I can find a sheet of music for this. ? I’ve seems to have picked up my rudiments really quick this way.
I hate change. Giving up on pipe and drum band due to the constant changing. It was a good ride while it lasted
