I`am a older guy who is starting over agian . i have seen some dvd`s for sale on rock drumming or rudiments can anyone suggest a good set to purchase. Maybe watching it on tape would help me agian. thanks for any help
You can also check out the rudiments for sticks and brushes on the Federation's website. We have about 80 stick rudiments and 30 brush rudiments (brudiments) on there. There's an exlanation on sticking with every rudiment.
Try to keep an open mind with rudiments.
What I find very helpful on the kit is displacement of beats, paradiddles, triplets and practicing in 3's, 5's and 7's.
If you think about it, a lot of drumming deals with 4's. A 4 measure turn around, 4/4 timing, the basic drumkit has 4 drums etc. So practicing in 3's, 5's and 7's is extremely helpful.
Try omitting or adding things to existing rudiments. Try different sticking techniques. You'll be amazed on what you can come up with.
I hope I was of some help.
