this guy is definitely a good teacher - all the analogies he used and explained how to use them and how they applied and then throwing in some Bruce Lee reference on top....nice job!
Dynamics and flow are paramount for me. I usually can't stand watching drum solos because they tend to blast you with a wall of notes without actually making it interesting.
Been playing for a long time, myself - this lesson is solid advice- and this dude is a great player. OK but now back to my blast beats and 32nds around the kit until my neighbors close their windows and blinds.
One of the best videos I've seen in some time. I've not taken the time to develop my solo chops but your video has given me some great ideas. Well done a d thank you
Thank you for the tips I've been trying to explore more ways to expand my solos thank you and thanks forthe confidence post. I'm pumped and ready to try this out and see what I can come up with
This was the video I was waiting for. Thank you drumeo for this. Thank you very much. Nd please pls 🙏 give us more videos on solo. As there are many students who want to impress their friends.
Brilliant Playing and Explanation Mark and Absolutely TRUE! I've always used from a whisper to a Roar in my Playing and Turning your Favourite Idea into an Ostinato is Brilliant Playing Melodies came from Krupa and Ari is next level!
Great lesson, it's about time somebody shows these Young Bucks that drumming is more than crash boom bang, there's more to playing drums then Hard Rock Style like he said, learn your Dynamics on your drums, learn Melody then you'll have it all he's been playing for 40 years he said, I've been playing for 60 years since I was 8 years old, you do the math, he's just trying to teach you your craft and understand it much better he's a very good instructor!
Thank you for responding I hope you feel the way I do about drumming if it's your passion those are part of the elements that we all need as drummers to succeed and be successful keep on drumming thanks for commenting
Yeah; just like Vinnie said about the new crop/TH-cam players. "Yeah, there's a lot of facilities out there..." Didn't really mention being intrigued, or anyone catching his ear. 🤔 This is a great teach. ✌🏾🥁 This gentleman is 🔥, my new #1 drumeo video.
Bad or ordinary solo's are created on a concise level trying to impress good solo's are created from the subconscious allowing dynamics and creativity to happen naturally without thinking
This video should have millions of views. The fact it doesn’t proves one of the very first thing he says. I’m gonna track this guy down for private lessons.

All great drum solos use these five things: Drumsticks, drumheads, drums, legs/arms, drummer
Crazy 8s Drums 👍🙂 If you're doing it right! 🙂

I would never get bored jamming with this drummer. Amazing skill and experience
Great lesson. Being a groove drummer mainly, have shied away from soloing when possible but now here's loads of ideas to change all that! Thanks Mark
One of the best videos that you guys put out there. Thank you!
Thank you. Mark is a world-class instructor and musician.
Great lessons!

The tips not only applicable to Solo but overall musicality, creativity and swing of moods! Great great video👍👏
Mark is an amazing drummer AND teacher. You should do a Masterclass with Mark! Similar to what you did with the great Todd Sucherman.
Great idea Miguel. I'm doing the Rock Drumming Class with Todd, amazing stuff...
17:48 is sooo awesome... I love cross stick clicks

That "missing" part of the 16th solo part I had learned from Dave W. When I went to one of his clinics. He basically said the same thing you did!!!
Thank you sir for your tips😊
very good tips.................love it!! These are excellent ideas and I will use them.
Great lesson! 👏👏❤️🥁
“Dynamics!? I’m already laying as loud as I can!” 🤣 I have to say that to the guitar players in my classic rock band.
Your nailing is too deep. Inspired tonight. Got to put few chops up with minimized notes . Thanks Man 😊
Super helpful. Thanks!
Awesome Tips 🥁

Title: How to make your own drum solo
Me a guitarist: *InTeREstInG*
Yeah brother your video is real talk !
Mark is the best!!!!!!!
This is a great lesson! Thank You.
What a nice sound!
Amazing advice!
amazing and inspiring. Thank You!!!
Good stuff. and yeah, the death of dynamics in crash cymbal playing has bummed me out for ages: smash.
Awesome lesson! I was looking for something like this, thanks!
Bad or ordinary solo's are created on a concise level trying to impress good solo's are created from the subconscious allowing dynamics and creativity to happen naturally without thinking
Some of the best training I do is to play a solo at ghost note level. Rake the stick on a cymbal sometimes for some unique accents.
Great lesson!
Great lesson.
This made me feel A LOT better. Simple and effective. Keeps your disciplined.

1:20 Eric Moore always
Impressive, thank you very much!
Fantastic content
Congratulations on the lesson and thank you. Where could I find the transcript of the whole solo, from the end? Thank you.
What is the common name of the drumsolo shown at the introduction? I did some research. But did not get it.
Yoooo! This is the truth right here. Bravo!
what mics are those?
Playing at pianissimo is such a great tool and lesson
Very great lesson.
Fabulous lesson! ... 'get to your kits, folks' - DG (anyone remember who said that?)

Great video

solid advice
Thank you
Learning how to play as soft as possible developes “touch” . “Touch”

There’s a Hispanic drummer that has a lot of followers but doesn’t understand number one.
Wow. Captain Howard from Bad Boys is one hell of a drummer
