    "ghost notes ain't nothin' but rebound" Bernard Purdie
    I think one may eventually get to the point where it's almost impossible not to play ghost notes. It's what separates drummers from drum machines and gives the groove
    some swig and sway

    Hey Rob, I know a lot of people have probably already commented on this, but thank you for sticking to the basics for us man. It really helps to know that there is an instructor out there that always has beginners in mind and is willing to grind it out with us through the first steps. Pocket drumming, basic ghost notes, beginner limb separation, all that stuff dude, it's really cool. I've been playing for about 5 months now and my right leg/right arm is still giving me some grief lol. I can't do what I want to with my right side, yet :)

    Thanks Rob, Just what I was looking for as I'm attempting to learn ghost notes right now. How you can provide professional level instruction, downloadable material while having high-end production and still get a downvote is beyond me.
    People! Slide this guy a few bucks if he has helped your drumming. I've watched a ton of videos and am a patreon member because of it.
    Rob, keep up the good work!

    Hi Rob. I like to use drum notation, for the purpose of helping me to remember the patterns or phrasings of songs. I'm 65 and have only been playing the drums for about a year, I have played guitar all my life. I find it hard sometimes to keep all the songs my band plays, in my head, so drum notation is a tool. Are there any software programs that make writing drum notation easy? Love all your vids and I'm wearing my Beatdown t-shirt to practice tonight. :)

    • @BibleStorm
      @BibleStorm Pƙed 3 lety +1

      The snare is gonna feel different to your practice pad (unless you have one that really does bounce like a snare)
      You can practice on anything but there's gonna be adjustments to make based on the feel/weight/bounce of your practice surface compared to the snare.
