Great performance, James- especially the triplets at the end. I seem to have a brain-block with the intro, my right foot keeps wanting to play the hi-hat rhythym...
thanks for the help, I've got it all down just not up to speed yet. hopefully sometime within the next week i'll have it. the transition from moving the left hand on the rack tom to the snare fucks me up every time.
Yep! Took me ages to flow into it (at the time i did this video i still found it difficult along with the intro!) But yes it's just Right, Left, Foot, Right, Left, Foot etc. with the left hand hitting the rack tom and the right alternating between the floor and snare!
That was the old teaching kit at the shop it is too small for me as there isn't much space to spread it out!! My own kit is a Pro M Mapex which has 13" rack, 16" and 18" Floor toms, a 24" kick and 14x6.5" Snare! That is just about big enough for me ;P And I'm not stupidly tall, around 5'11"
awesome cover. I love your hawk tattoo, did you get the one taylor hawkins has? Your an awesome drummer don't listen to the anoying little girls who can't drum for their life.
great job james, though your hi-hats sounded like they were making 2 noises instead of one at the start. almost as if one half of the hat was connecting with the bottom a millisecond after the other half hit the bottom.
Just try playing simple beats on the ride with the hi hat going then make things more complex. There is no easy or instant way to do it other than practicing it alot! Try doing it to Avon by QOTSA thats what i started with as it wasnt that hard a song!
Lay off man, he covered this song great and even added some extra personal taste to it. who cares if he wears gloves or not? whatever helps you get the job done
hahaha yeah i knoticed a resemblance. but that shit was the mad notes man. i mean there was that 1 part that u played early but its understandable cuz i mean this song takes alot out of you.
dude.. is this your hair? i mean, is this an wig? anyway... nice video.. some day i'll post mine playing this song, the problem is memorize the drum hehe
fucking nice!!! love the energy, to be honest your drumming on this song is much bettter then Joey's anywat that's my opinion you are more like grohl type of drummer
That's only the hi hats... and i'm not even playing those. The ride is a 21" Avedis Sweet ride, Left Crash is an 18" K custom dark crash and the right is just an old 16" AAX
In defense of Joey, Grohl goes for more of a groove when it comes to this song. But if you've ever been to a concert when they played this with Joey it's unbelievable how much more pumping it is when Joeys just destroying his kit to this song. They jam a lot better with Joey then when they did with Dave live.
Well, erm.. cheers! Haha I know it is no where near perfect, have polished it up a fair bit since then but yea the triplets are a bit shoddy. P.S had a haircut since then. ;) But Emo?! Really??
Hahahahahahahahah! Wow you don't sound like a moron at all... Either way what does it matter what i look like? Doesn't affect me in life at all. Have changed since then though so your comments are pretty invalid. Thanks for making me laugh though but i think you have wasted your time if you are trying to insult me. Better luck next time buddy!
Christ, how old are you?! Why don't you come back with some structured argument instead of "WAH YOU'RE GAY". Or is the "Your mum" going to be your next intelligent insult?....
the intro on this song is heaven
nicely done! . . and a big smile at the end :)
Awesome, I'll get to work then :)

Crap, is it that obvious? haha!
Nah, he is my drumming idol along with Dave!
But i want to have the best of both!
Cheers buddy!
is that ending little diddy linear triplets? Like the John Bonham type of thing? I got all of this song down but I can't figure out the ending.

Cheers Dan!
hahaha yeah i knoticed a resemblance. but that shit was the mad notes man. i mean there was that 1 part that u played early but its understandable cuz i mean this song takes alot out of you.

No my friend, single pedal!!
Can't use a double pedal to save my life!
