Man I just found your videos and I just turned 49 last week. Been playing on and off since I was 10, and wish I had studied harder. Been turning my buddies on to you last couple days. Merry Christmas thanks brother.
My man Rob, the “Sticking together” theme is such an appropriate message right now. That theme on hoodies, shirts and other matching items may move in a big way if you plug it in your vids. The truth is we do need to stick together despite our differences and we need to hear it as well. I bought the neck gator and am impressed with the texture and quality of the material and it’s two layers. Good video, I’ll put this is my practice routine. Peace.
After 32 years of playing (gospel 9PC brass band) i'm learning new material every time I watch your videos. I can tell we are from the same era, it's your delivery that's the key man, thank you for your efforts..
Rob, I LOVED this video. such a simplistic way to break into some tasty and coordinated licks. You truly are a master player and inspirational teacher for all of us aspiring to be better at what we do. And.... BTW, I peeped your DRUMEO video. It was something I strive to do yet sometimes lose sight of. It hit home on so many fronts. I feel it was one of DRUMEO'S greatest lessons. I can't believe it took so long for you to appear there but I trust many will feel the same as I; long overdue Bruh!! Also recently purchased your "Rooted in Rhythm" Hoodie. it's beautiful and perfect in this cold weather here. God Bless you and Thank You for your dedication to our craft!!!
A lot of drummers do this and it's extremely helpful. You hear guys like Vinnie Colaiuta, Steve Smith and even new cats like Matt Garstka. Awesome stuff
Since I was told to practice on 5-note group, 2 accents and 3 accents, I've been spamming them. Hardest thing so far is to count over the bar and resolve.
You have a true gift for teaching, man! A "complex" topic made easy just because of how you explained it. I have done similar fills from hearing drummers I like play odd grouping fills, but I never even knew what it was called or what was actually going on. Now that I actually understand what's happening and how its counted I'm going to be able to create some seriously cool fills. Thank you so much Rob! I've got some practicing to do.
OOOh! Mix and match accent number patterns, throw in evens, add a snare fill at the end! The combos are endless! Thanks! This is exactly what I need right now at my level!
I loved the mix up of the different counts. I knew you were going to probably do that as an example but it sounded so freaking cool when you executed it. Your ghost notes are scary even man, they’re so satisfying to listen to.
So good man! This helps with all kinds of polyrythyms too, not just overlayed on 4/4, but subdividing other signatures as well! Thanks for such a great library of learning resources. You do a great job of demystifying the drums, and making it fun to learn them. Keep it up man! I'mma head over to that merch page and support the cause, wear it proudly and spread the word!
Hey Rob this was awesome... Could you make a video how to know end as it these cross over the bar line and tends to make it difficult to know the "one"
Rob this is like digging in pure gold, I’ve been playing for a while now and this has unlocked my vocabulary. What’s more it sounds as if I can actually play now. Inspiring lesson mate, it’s restored my faith in me as a drummer. thank you.
Awesome! I now know a 41 note grouping. :) Great video BTW. For anyone else bouncing around Rob's videos, this would be an excellent exercise for the traditional grip.
I’ve been playing drums since I was a teen as a hobby more or less. Never took lessons which is why my skills only advanced to a certain point. This lesson unlocked an important part of the puzzle for me. Gonna pull the trigger on an electronic kit and get back into it!
I dig your style of teaching bro!! And your a hell a drummer🤙🏼
Yeah, if I can pick it up, he’s doin’ something right!
I now understand John Bonham's drum solos. Brilliant video Rob
Such a good teacher so easy to follow no unnecessary complications great stuff 👍
YOUR FIRST TEACHER IVE SEEN THAT acknowledge LEFT HANDED DRUMMERS! THANK YOU!!
I love the last beat ❤
Man I just found your videos and I just turned 49 last week. Been playing on and off since I was 10, and wish I had studied harder. Been turning my buddies on to you last couple days. Merry Christmas thanks brother.
Oh man that formula really works....never thought this fills would be that easy to play...loved that...love you man🤘💪💪
One of the very best clinicians I’ve had the pleasure of watching on YT 🔥🔥
0:17 COACH RB GOT ME READY TO RUN THROUGH A WALL, LETSS GO!!

Got my weekly beatdown. Excellent.

Thanks for supporting, man. Important message indeed. And I'm way ahead of ya 😉
I’ll admit that I totally shouted from the back.

1st derivation reminiscent of the part used in Pneuma by Danny Carey w/ Tool. Great tip, Rob, so versatile. You rock!
You did it again, Rob. Simplistic but super effective. Thanks!
Since I was told to practice on 5-note group, 2 accents and 3 accents, I've been spamming them. Hardest thing so far is to count over the bar and resolve.
Mr. Smoooth. I already knew this but forgot to use it for like 30 years. Thanks for the wake-up!
Great lesson! And that is without even moving the accents around the diddle. Lots of mileage to be had here!
Rob is no attitude just info . Great lessons from nice guy.
We love you man...you show the real trick...!
Right on, Rob. I use that fill too.
You have a true gift for teaching, man! A "complex" topic made easy just because of how you explained it.

Excellent presentation!! Funny and enlightening!
Excellent teacher!! GBY brother!🙏🏼
Hi Rob! Thanks for this quick tip! Nice way to subdivide 16th notes!
the coolest way to play 16th note fills! that is the word im taking here!!! great advices!
"You're really not going to trip 'em up... that much" 😂
Great lesson Rob! Thanks
Excellent lesson - thanks!
Another great video, Thanks Rob!
Rob-you are just absolutely so likable and so cool! Great lesson!
Great lesson Rob, but how do you keep track of where you are in the 4? This is what I always find tricky with this kind of stuff.
OOOh! Mix and match accent number patterns, throw in evens, add a snare fill at the end! The combos are endless! Thanks! This is exactly what I need right now at my level!
mindblown! thanks for this!
This is truly a gold dust, love it men. I am soo gonna practice this to the limit
OMG!!! It totally works! How cool!😎
Next level skills, thanks for sharing.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’ve been working on these types of groupings for years now thanks to the Gary Chafee sticking books.
Thank you Rob for the tutorial and inspiration.
Thank you so much for this video !! One of the most legendary videos in history! :) :)
You truly have the gift of teaching! Thanks for taking the time to do these videos. It’s motivating and helping to improve my drum skills.
I loved the mix up of the different counts. I knew you were going to probably do that as an example but it sounded so freaking cool when you executed it. Your ghost notes are scary even man, they’re so satisfying to listen to.
Thanks! Rob
Thanks and have a good one
sounds even better when you swing it
So good man! This helps with all kinds of polyrythyms too, not just overlayed on 4/4, but subdividing other signatures as well! Thanks for such a great library of learning resources.

I learned this exact technique from Barry Romberg many years ago, and it's been an integral part of how I hear rhythm since
Great video thanks Rob ✊👍
I think see that new Paiste in there! Love your style of teaching as well! Thanks you!
A very useful vídeo!! You are the number one!!
Amazing !!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Rob "Master Zen Yoda"teacher ! Glad you appeared on drumeo (I didn't see you there before)...great class as well !
Hey Rob this was awesome... Could you make a video how to know end as it these cross over the bar line and tends to make it difficult to know the "one"
can you do a video on keeping time in your head. Mental independence. Maybe counting while doing odd time. 7 or 9 time signature etc
Great methods and skills man !!! Thanks so much ✌
Thanks so much!
Very cool and helpful lesson Thx ✌️🥁✌️
Man you made that easy to count and play thank you very much
Tks Rob awesome!
The alternating sticking variations this is pretty flashy too
Rob this is like digging in pure gold, I’ve been playing for a while now and this has unlocked my vocabulary. What’s more it sounds as if I can actually play now. Inspiring lesson mate, it’s restored my faith in me as a drummer. thank you.
Excellent video, as always. Merry Christmas, Rob :-)
I was good with 3 notes single accents . You just filled in the missing information i needed..Thank you so much for doing this lesson. Cheers!
Now that was a real musical demonstration!
Great video. Superb.

Likely the most valuable video i've ever watched.
Thank you Rob.

Well done Rob

Love This Video!!!!!!
I’ve been playing drums since I was a teen as a hobby more or less. Never took lessons which is why my skills only advanced to a certain point. This lesson unlocked an important part of the puzzle for me. Gonna pull the trigger on an electronic kit and get back into it!
NICE 🙂
Boom! Nailing it like always. I saw math and was like “nah I’m not doing that” glad I watched. Haha! Love your videos
Cool lesson. I really like the sound of 7 and 9!
So weird that iv been playing for over 20 yrs and everything he's explaining is alien to me but when he plays it. I instantly know how to play it.
That's a great lesson 😆😆😆😆😆😆
It has a nice feel to it! Nice!
Hey Rob! It's totally intelligent from you to avoid more math and let us beginners figure it out, like how many bars it needs to "meet". Great stuff!
