    I wished I would have shown an example stringing together multiple group 1's which also sounds super cool (Bonham-ish of course). I showed multiple group 2's but not group 1's. You can hear what it sounds like at 0:07. The hands are split between the floor tom and snare but if you put them all over, it also sounds super cool.

    So amazing Steve! I played drums as a teen. I performed some shows in LA Sunset Blvd., got married and focused on the business and stopped playing for way too long. Many years later I joined a country Rock band that I'm current in. We have opened up for some known artists which has been great experience. Other than keeping great timing and some basic fills here and there, I've never have advanced to the next level as a drummer. What you posted and how you demonstrated it for me, is so inspiring and will be the only what I practice until get it down fluidly. Thanks a million for posted this triplet sticking!

    I haven't played in a few years now and your vids have inspired me to practice. I end up hating what i play but then i see some videos that make me think, ok if i practice some simple things maybe ill like what i play and start playing again. You know you can hear the same message from 10 ppl but sometimes it just takes the way someone explains things to make it get thru to you. Cheers bro and thanks. Ive never been great but occasionally i can be ok.
