My drum line was a bag pipe band. Universities in canada Are different to America when it comes to drum lines. Thank you for the lesson and helping out the drumming community.
I love the bag pipe drumming tradition. I was furtunate enough to be on a contract one time with a bass player from Scotland who had with him some video footage of the most recent "Tattoo" or drumline competition in Scotland it was fantastic. To this day I still use that notation for writing out snare drum parts.
Thank you so much! I haven't posted in a while because I'm doing some work on the house and it's taking a lot of time and energy but I will be back soon.
Great groove; I can't wait to try it out. And I really love your channel. I was never in drumline or anything in high school or college, but I really wish I had done it. It looks fun as hell and a great way to build up your hands.
Well done, Gabriel. This was a very detailed and enlightening lesson/demo. I especially like that you emphasized the 'skill set' aspect of this. Hopefully, that concept resonates with your viewers in the context of skill sets being tools of the trade in terms of being able to slip them in when appropriate. We all should be as subtle and versatile as a musician as we can. I feel your videos help this technique and thought process. Love it!
This is really cool. I'm 66, and I've been playing for about 1 month. I was looking for words I could use to create patterns with, and heres my first. Pumpernickel! Which to me would look like RRLR LLRL. Which i thought was an inverted paradiddle. It works for me
My Man! What a lesson. If I understood correctly, you are emulating/emphasizing the bass line with the kick drum, which happens to be 1, 1a, (2) en, which is what the right hand is doing in an inverted paradiddle. Did I get that correctly? Because I don't see the inverted paradiddle between the hands which is the usual way people present an inverted paradiddle groove. Hope I got it right!
You got it! There are actually several ways to invert a paradiddle, the one I put in this video may not be the first one you think of which could be why you didn’t see it immediately in the transcription.
You'll figure it out. If not, for the time being, just play the pattern on the kit and enjoy it at face value. I learned the ups and downs that way much later in life. I was already doing it, I just didn't know what each stroke was called. So just getting the pattern together however, as long as in the end it sounds right is what's important. Thank you for sharing your comment
Sorry to see you go. Just recently found the channel. Like the step 1 2 3 method. I’m going back and finding and saving all the old episodes I can find. Thanks.

this groove sounds like MR.BIG "Take Cover" tune. 🙃😃
I just watched the first part of that video and that might even be the pattern he’s using. Thanks for the reference

@drumtiptuesday oh man! Inverted paradiddle between kick and left hand! All while lining up with the bass line. Damn!! Great one brother.
Thanks a Lot for the tip !!!!
Thank you for commenting! I'll keep making them.
Paradiddle "Immigrant Song"
First run through I’m not getting it. How the up down tap part works in I don’t know. 50-60 more replays it might sink in. Thanks for the challenge.
