      personaepikTV it feels so magnificent to follow your heart… I wanted to take lessons when I was about 14 although my parents vetoed that idea… Never thought much about it over the years until I had a dream in January 2020 and started lessons February 12… Went to the music store to buy a practice pad and ended up with an acoustic kit… Much more fun on the kit LOL… Hats off to you as well for following your dreams👏🏼❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦

    Brandon, I'm 53 and was a Bonham freak my whole life and a few years ago I discovered the whole rudimentary thing when I progressed to learning more jazz grooves and it changed everything for me. Just wish I would have realized that earlier in life but when I started there were very few options for learning and no CZcams. Your teaching style is refreshing and your humbleness is a good thing...rudiments can be a boring for most drummers (that's why I think so relatively few drummers work on them) but your approach to them is inspiring. Peace, Bob M.

      @davidjones9636 Před 7 lety

      I'll out do you on the age I'm 54 and returning to drums after a break (drum roll) of 25 years. Agree with you that back in the day learning drums was not assisted by youtube and as such rudiments just appeared boring. Now I've picked up the sticks again its a whole new experience and loving learning rudiments (albeit very slowly). Good stuff Brandon, keep it coming.

    I agree, rudiments played all over the set really adds a lot of different spins on just one rudiment so just think how many possibilities there are the more rudiments you can play. I was in drum corps as a younger version of myself and it was the best thing I ever did for my drumming. I really need to start practicing a lot more. With kids, work and other things I have let it get in the way of drumming. Thanks for sharing! You're inspiring me to get my 50 year old bones down in the dungeon and playing around with rudiments on all the drums and cymbals and other stuff.
