Love and enjoy your groove and demonstrations as always Rick!
That's right. Great ears!
Impeccable time and a happening pocket. Always a pleasure to hear you groove.
Thanks Les
I really appreciate that
Such consistency! Really separates the boys from the men. Love the blink-182 reference 😂
sweet playing man, I love it. I subscribed and like every video I watch, I appreciate you putting out awesome content educational and entertainment, really cool stuff. Peace.
Thanks Elias. I appreciate your feedback and thanks for watching
Hi Rick, will you be doing any tips for rimshots? Like all the different colors of rimshots, how to correctly practice them, or how it can be incorporated in grooves/solo?
I totally agree, that would very, very helpful !!!
I already did one on rimshots. It is here czcams.com/video/sO1caTPEfug/video.html
I may do one on the drum set though since its a bit different.
@@rickdior Hi Rick, thank you very much,
that`s very, very cool stuff !!!
Hey Rich, Thanks for all the inside technique and applications. Lots to learn and I benefited greatly. I have question: at times I see your right hand closer to the butt end than other times (i.e. @ 6:20). I assume that this is intentional. Why and when? What is the advantage?
Hi Scott
The advantage is more power and volume when I need it.
I will move up and down the stick by a few inches this way depending on the music I am playing.
I wish my drumming level was good enough to take drum lessons
William Thompson Even if you’ve never held drumsticks, don’t read a lick of music, have never even tried to tap out a steady pulse, your “drumming level” is good enough to start lessons. Everyone starts somewhere and the beginning is the best place to start. If you’ve started somewhere else, you can always go back and fill in what you’ve missed. (The only impediment would be certain kinds of physiological motor control or cognitive limitations that might prevent attainment of certain skills.)
Try it the other way around: drum lessons first!
Most of all: enjoy.
I've been taking lessons for 2 years now. A lot of fun, therapeutic, and just great...
Go for it. You'll never regret doing it, but you might regret not doing it.
