I learned with this book! Got my 1st garage band audition in 1989. We played “Sweet Child O Mine”. Set up my kit lefty and rocked out with my mini-sticks. Bass player told me to add a fill and I was like “You mean a mini-solo?” 10 minutes later I was waiting in the driveway for Mom to pick me up. Those guys didn’t know crap. (My solo career was short lived because you can only play Wipe Out once before folks want to beat you up!) mom? Come and get me.
sounds like you didn’t know crap though lol
Maybe so. Maybe so. BUT, you wanna know who thought I DID know crap? My mom. She cut out my school picture and pasted it on drummer # 11 in the book. Very inspirational, indeed! (My shirt had three snaps and you betcha, I had everyone of them snapped. I looked nice)
@@drummersnare6276I think this comment was a joke
@@dannyledrums4116 why would It be a joke? he just called a drum fill a mini solo lol
@@drummersnare6276 because he was probably quoting the book in the video emc flips to a page that explains drum fills but the book calls them mini solos
This book really shows how to count music with beat 4 landing on the “and” of beat 3😭
Video 31of asking for the full Freebird Guitar Solo on the Megatenors
That grip would surely lead to some nasty hand injuries.
Hey emcproductions I wrote this cadence called hype up smooth I was wondering if you could play it in your next video I sent you a email of the cadence
I've already heard the Australian drummer's perspective on this book, yours was equally funny
I had the exact same thought run though my head, and I'm glad you brought him up
Yep. That was absolutely hilarious
*PK Cell vibes intensify*
@@dasmeatloaf7670 not the pk cell...
Scarlet, Fire
This book was definitely written by a lead singer
Woah, this guy definitely plays drums
😱
Well yeah, cause he got the book
No? What gave you that idea?
3:31. Exactly. My jazz experience is minimal, but in college, the one year I played in the jazz ensemble, I learned that it was the bass that set the beat, style, and tempo. The drums were there for accent and color….and we had a phenomenal jazz drummer in Bobby Adams. Oddly enough, I can’t remember the name of the bassist. LOL. (By the way, my year in jazz ensemble was way back in 1981.)
I'd argue that the interaction between bass and drum differ for jazz vs rock.
In jazz, the bass is the time keeper and defines rhythmic structure, and the drum adds color, but for rock it's often the other way around.
I guess that's why in Jazz having a bass but no drums is more common than the other way around, while in rock there are duos of drum and guitar, but bass and no drums is pretty much unheard of.
Ringo Star is super underrated today. Try playing the swing beats he played for a whole sets worth of music and see how you feel after lol.
I will agree that Ringo may not have been the greatest rock drummer, but dammit….he was the drummer for the freaking Beatles!!! He was picked because he has a better beat then Stu Best. Debatable yes, but Ringo’s position in the rock world cannot be denied.
Ringo beat out Stu Best making him AT WORST the second-worst drummer in the world! Just kidding, I love Ringo, and I would argue he was absolutely the key to the band's success. Yes, the others are legendary songwriters and musicians in their own right, but the band wasn't called "The Songwritingles."
@@ofsinopedid you seriously just say…that Lars Ulrich is better than Ringo Starr? Are you kidding me?!!
*I’m only kidding please calm down*
@@KalaschniKlown I am sure there are people that think that unfortunately. I mean tbf they were both a good fit for their bands with the difference ofc being that Ringo could keep time... you know the thing a drummer should do if nothing else.
lars and ringo both suck
Errm....PETE Best ?
I still can't get past that they sent a drum head. Just the head. Maybe they had a coupon stashed inside that you send in and they send you the rest of the drum? (Although I've never seen a snare drum that small before.)
1:19 man this little segment shows how good his chops and technique are if he can play like that on a standalone drum head.
Yuppp
After watching this I too can be one of the top 100 drummers. The book taught ne everything I need to know
İt’s good to see beginner guy tries to learn drums keep going 👊🏻
L take on Ringo but other than that enjoyed the vid ❤️
You should put that "drum pad" on on something to make it a snare drum
Ok, I'll be that guy and defend one part of this abomination.
This was likely designed for kids in elementary school. The smaller stick size is likely more appropriate for their smaller hands. They are comically small for us, but I bet a kid in their target age group would find them easier to hold (and use with real instruction) than full size sticks.
All you need is a set of 2B sticks, a pillow and "The Drummer's Complete Vocabulary by Alan Dawson" and you're ready to start. ❤❤❤
Yay I’m first!
Correct! Good job.
I bought a used copy of this but it was missing some of the components, so i just used two tooth picks and a paper plate. It worked about the same.
Saw this on dankpods, this book is so funny😂😂
My book came with special drum sticks where you mount 2 double A batteries in them to play the bounce roll. Be a Drummer. Make a Ton of money. Meet Chicks
I don't even play drums but I can see that this book is freaking wonky 🤣
It pains me to say that Ringo might have to be #1 for paving the way for modern rock.
Youch! That was painful. Having seen many drum instruction books through 40+ yrs of playing, that is the worst one that I have seen. It is no wonder that it is no longer made anymore. Yikes, the poor kids who got that as a gift or to start them off.
You know its bad when two people have already made a video about it.
The head is for a Spock so they can make more tenor players obviously
Eyy first DankPods, now you, cool 👍👍
This MIGHT be emc productions
@the.drum.thing sound familiar
EMC!I have a challenge for you! Transcribe and play the bass drum features from George Mason University's 2023 WGI show Capsule!
Could you make the song "here comes the bride" but make it EPIC. Cause my brother's getting married and he'd love it. Use whatever instruments you want. But it gets +10 epicness if you use the megatenors.
Wow! this book was so inspirational that I learned drums too! Although, my sticks were about twice as big as I would've liked them, and my snare drum actually worked. It was so sad, but I went with it, even holding the sticks "correctly". After getting rejected by at least 50 bands because I should "stop playing f***ing wipeout the entire time and adding a drum solo every 8 measures", and also completely skipping school entirely (especially 6th grade band class), I was allowed into a band made up of entirely 9 year-olds. I couldn't play any of the music given to me because it was too refined and the notes actually lined up. I could tell my mini-solos (fills for uncultured people) really stood out because everyone stopped playing entirely. I don't know if they liked my solos or my epic drum head better. Earlier today, my dad left for some milk. I don't know why, but I think it's so I can get stronger bones to improve my drumming. So, overall, I loved that book so much, and it really improved my life.
Good Morning! Guess that Eric Carr was not listed as a top drummer in the book. That would have been EPIC! So, when was this published??
I love this guy. He is so so funny 😂😂😂😂
"This book and practice drum thingy helped me become a world-famous rock drummer!" - Said no one ever
Realistic Rock by Carmine Appice was the book I used to learn drums.
Same!
it’s sad there are things like this that attract beginners and completely throw them off and teach them incorrectly
I wish you would please post the notation for the patterns you are playing. Us beginners have a hard time figuring them out but they sound really cool.
Just buy the book! It's pretty inexpensive used. And you get a free drum head.
Dank pods dejavu :clueless:
I used to work for Scholastic Books, Inc.
I am a drummer.
What a disappointment this book is.
Usually, we would have many ppl contributing to the writing, one editor, and one fact checker. I'm guessing the editor on this project wasn't a drummer, but probably had just a music background.
Btw, did you catch them saying Pink Floyd's _Money_ was in FIVE?!🤣🤣
Also, is that Chad Wackerman on the cover???
So... Would there be a possibility of emc getting recalled into the marines because of the IRR activation?
oh no im having flashbacks to the aussie man review.
Ahh, the book that inspired countless drummers...🤣
Good morning and this is video number 87 of asking for marchable bass drums, set up in a tenor formation. I.e. benor drums.
PS: custom backbar may be needed
DankPods collab?
I'm not making excuses for this product, but if it's from Scholastics, then this was aimed for little kids, probably from the ages of 6-10, I guess that's why the Sticks are so short. That being said, It's still a stupid product, and young kids should still take professional lessons and use proper equipment.
Did anybody notice that the traditional grip picture has SIX FINGERS?!
Video 15 of requesting a Mickey mouse clubhouse drumline cadence
Hell, they could have just included a small piece of cut up mousepad and that would have been a better practice surface XD. Sending an uncommon size drumhead is just hilariously befuddling.
So funny!!!😂
Looks like the hardware for that drum set illustration was designed by M.C Escher.
so, if metallica's lars ulrich had to tab his drums out...
I would bet good money that someone found themselves with a whole truckload of useless, cheapo drumheads and figured they would try to pawn them off as practice pads to unsuspecting kids, and just threw together the book to sell it.
Why didnt they just throw in an actual practice pad instead of an actually useless 8 inch drum head? How did they even find those? Did some company have a bunch of weird 8 inch heads sitting in a warehouse? What laziness
4:04 I’m really surprised that Glenn Kotche (one on my favourite drummers) gets mentioned in this turd!
thatis pretty bad. and not the first review i've seen on it. this ain't it. first thing anyone should learn is 4/4 and how to count to four, not leap into triple and paradiddles, those take time to just comprehend
I really want you to react to Austin Archey doing his drum playthroughs. I want to see if you can replicate it. If not give some insight into.all the sounds coming together through each one he uses. Much love
I’ve never seen a product that was a complete embrace of the U.S public school system.
Chat gpt could probably write it
The dude is yawning because he got bored from having to wait for 1000 measures of rest then play a cymbal roll at the end of a really bad ballad. Lmao
The stands in some of those diagrams look like they were designed by MC Escher
At least you got sticks. Mine came with a pair of sewing needles.
In the 2nd pad. He play the music mission impossible
Amazing. It’s like the book is purposefully made to throw you off
Perfect SNL worthy skit right there! That was epic!
I swear the algorithm is burying your videos on my feed
That’s a nice Tupperware lid you got there lol
I think ik what the snare head is for its for a Micro Snare LOL
0:45 isn't this count off in 7/12 and not 3/4?
Where the heck is Peart in the drummers.
You’d be better off learning on RUclips 😅
This looks like a school book fair special.
Lol, they got everything wrong.
Is this really worse than the expert village drum lessons?
I think so, because this cost 8 bucks lol
@@EMCproductions Now I wanna see if they have a book on how to become a tenor drummer
@@EMCproductions is it at least better than the wiki how lessons?
Subscribed dude! You rock!
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Try to tune the head lmao
True fact: The unnamed author(s) of this book once saw or heard a drummer somewhere. This makes them eminently qualified to create this nonsensical package of dubious value. I wonder if this is why drum programming became so prevalent.
Dankpods did it first
Dankpods when
i had that actually
oh my pkcell
Hahahaaaaaaa! 💚🥁🤣👍
I saw DankPod's reaction to this, so I'm glad you also did a video on it
I love that Glenn Kotche is in this book. 🤣
As a bass player, I am very happy knowing that at least people exist that understand how important the bass is
My drumline tech showed me ur video on the terrible traditional where the finger breaks and then he taught me like full on traditional(now i really am the only one in my district)
To be fair, if we’re going by record sales and influence, then Ringo Starr is definitely #1.
This drum book made my chest hair.
I'm naturally smooth.
A collab between Eric and Wade Dank has to happen someday!!!!
9:10 I’m pretty sure EMC is gonna start playing you could be mine by Guns N’ Roses
Ok but the next step is to create a drum with that drum head (maybe bring back gourd drum) and see how it sounds.
Vic Firth is the only company making drum sticks
Listen, that sound you hear is Haskell Harr turning in his grave.
I mean, to their credit, they don't publish it anymore...
never seen someone work so hard to coax music out of a single timbale head with pencils before lol
This book looks like it was written by AI. This is the future.
I set it up with my snare on the left but I’m right handed
