Mark Beecher - Old Dan Tucker (Rudimental Drumming)

This excerpt is from my DVD "The Art of Ancient Rudimental Drumming" produced by me - Mark Beecher - and DePersico Design Group and is "Old Dan Tucker," a 19th Century tune with a 20th Century traditional drum beating. Hoagy Wing is on Bass Drum and William Serad on Fife.

GREAT!

Thanks for your comments everyone!
To answer your question Forgemen ... the reason I stare down at my drum, is the same reason Buddy Rich stared at his snare drum when he played a solo, Dave Brubeck stares at his hands on the keys, Jaco Pastorius at his fingers when he played his bass, or Jimmy Page on his guitar.

You can't stare at the drum when you're lookign out for musket fire!
I was a child on the war field, I'd crap myself. Let alone, pay a flamique

Nicely done, wouldn't mind seeing the fife/piccolo player onscreen but you're focus here is on the drums. I really prefer this over the plastic skins/coldness of the current rudimental/drum corps type stuff.

This is like a live rudimental drumming history lesson! Is the DVD for sale yet?
