I learned this in the 80’s when hard rock band Krokus covered Ballroom Blitz by Sweet.
I hit like and subscribed.
Peace out
@@EjSinner13 thanks! Yes that's a great song 😀
Awesome video. Love to see true professionals share their passion. Ex Military is the icing on the cake! Thank you for your service.
@@SS-lx8dh thank you for watching! I also really appreciate your feedback. Have a great week 😀
Thank you. I picked up drums in my old age. This will be fun to work on.
@@justincurran4868 Never too late to learn. It's a lot of fun. I'm still learning 😀
That's the intro to Ballroom Blitz. Not so easy to play when you first try it.
I never really noticed the train beat growing up- was never a goal, but I've had to make it happen in pretty much every project I've worked with. Two albums I recorded featured a variation, and it took more practice than I wanted to admit, heh ✌️🥁
You never know what you're going to need. I've played with musicians who wanted to play it extremely fast - which was very surprising and challenging 😁Hard to keep from having a "train wreck" past a certain tempo😁
Very Helpful,,,, thank you!🙏
Thank you for your comment. It really helps grow the channel. I'm glad you found the lesson helpful!😀
Thanks for the clarification !
Great teacher!
I really appreciate the compliment! I'm glad you found it helpful😀
Your drum tuning sounds amazing. Also I see you're from Kansas city and the first thing I thought was "Man that's where Bird was from." 😂
@@leofender909 Thank you! I'm not from Kansas City but I've been here a long time. The jazz history in Kansas City is very interesting. Jazz thrived here because Kansas City didn't observe prohibition 😃
I've got some new techniques to work on now! Thanks!
You're welcome! Glad you found it helpful😀
I’ll never use it, but I have to learn it
@@centralscrutinizer66 you never know. You might find you need it eventually. Plus it's fun to learn new beats!😀
I’m self taught and I never learned rudiments through proper lessons. I agree 100%, it’s better to know and maybe never use then find out there’s holes in your abilities at a bad time.
Good one Brad.👍 Years ago when I heard (didn't see) this beat, I played RRLL RRLL RRLL /RLL. Accents in the right places. / = 1/16th note rest.🥁
That would also work!😀
Sounds great I'm going to practice it! Love the Ludwig shirt 👍
@@JAMESlock1911 thanks! I've always been a big Ludwig fan😃
Good lesson. I will watch for your future videos.
Thank you! I'm glad you found it helpful😀
Thanks!😊
You are welcome! Glad I could help you😀
I totally dig your video. The first song that came to mind was Radar Love, by Golden Earring. That was the first train beat I fell in love with. Ballroom Blitz by Sweet is another one. Thank you!
Thanks! I really like Ballroom Blitz. Fun tune😀😀

Loved it! sounds like Cheap Trick - I Want You to Want Me
Thank you. I love that tune. I think they were better live than in the studio. That particular tune and live version is really fantastic😀
Can you provide the drum notation for this drum beat? This would help me to master it. Thanks.
