RE: Monday Drum Day: Swinging it
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Jazz is blooming hard on the drums. There's a lot of cymbal work and swooshing the brushes around on the snare...bit like rubbing your belly and patting your head.

Having played a lot of swing on the guitar I may have some feel for it. You just have to get these rhythms into your brain so they become instinctive. I was playing a bit of this on the acoustic kit last night. Good fun.
Yeah I agree because you've been so involved with Jazz the last few years, it should be easier for you to pick up the feel for it than the average learner. Love playing a proper kit... but haven't had the chance to do that since I gave up school teaching over 8 years ago. Wish I had the room for some but my neighbours are probably glad I don't.
You can play mine when I bring it to a rehearsal. I can get away with some noise at home
I'd love to play your kit. Thank you Steve, that's very kind of you.
