Lol I accidentally started this video on .5 speed (cuz I had been analysing a specific song) and you sound completely wasted! XD
Thanks for all the great videos. Very useful for me (beginner). As a non-native English speaker, I had to look up words like ''perpendicular", though.

I was curling my first finger around the stick, I'm glad I caught it quick with this video. Thank you!

I had suffered from hand pain due to curling my index too tightly around the stick for years until stumbling upon this lesson and it has been my lifesaver since then. Thanks for specifically pointing that out, you have saved me and many other drummers with this lesson!
