For #practicethursday a day late, I gave that triplet double bass fill a try to see if I can even get that speed. not without feeling faint! https://youtu.be/WK83DmTMbiY

for #practicethursday (yesterday...) I have a spur of the moment drum cover of Knights of Cydonia, in my usual style of "used to practice it a lot, haven't played it in 6 months, let's try it out". Otherwise it's not fresh and doesn't sound as good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbNcheG0d8Q
yesterday was #practicethursday so here's some watching KNOWER on youtube / practicing I did.
What am I working on? Postural issues as I have some chronic right shoulder pain that's triggered by drumming.
Didnt get to practice much today but did a lot yesterday, and this one came out better than usual, so for #practicethursday this is a cover of Joey Defrancesco's version of Malafemmena w/ the incredible Joe Ascione doing this awesome inverted-funk-samba thing, on their album "Goodfellas", all Italian-American classics with amazing drumming. Order the chicken parmigiana
It was quite long practice this #PracticeThursday for me... Almost two and a half hours. π :drumsticks:
I'm in Montreal this week so no drum kit in my tiny appartment. Instead here's a little pad improvisation for #PracticeThursday. It's just a little snippet though cus of the video size limit π
Another #PracticeThursday, another take on the same song...
It's still missing thousands big and little touches, but I slowly feel more confident at least at the basic backbeat. It's fun! Yes, I can do this over and over. And I will.
Nothing But Thieves - If I Were You ... (2nd take)
#practicethursday , playing along with "Ace of Heart" cover of Georgy Porgy for 30 seconds.
I wasn't able to get a good enough one-hand straight 16th note on the hihat going so as you can see I cheated by doing a sticking pattern. probably doesn't sound as good w/o the music backing me up. also my foot failed me on an accent near the end.
I think I'm going to go to the Jeff Porcaro version and work on very straight one-handed 16ths.
@lucia :) ... the plan is to give him a bit more different phrases, but there wasn't any time for that yet... Just finished my today's session too... :) Now I see - you are playing with your signature drumsticks, that must be much better! It's #PracticeThursday everyone!
Itβs a group practice but still, it fits #PracticeThursday - https://youtu.be/gkd-2o3qhBg just jamming with #TLI
@ernststroeer Great! Thanks for sharing. This should probably be #PracticeThursday entry as well. :)
So, my first (and late) #PracticeThursday, practicing one basic #Taiko rhythm nicknamed Horsebeat, and some 7/8s variations. Apologies in advance for all the out-of-beat moments... πββοΈ
It's #PracticeThursday and I feel like I should come clean and share something too ... (you know, to be an exemplar user π )
So here it is - my first time ever - sharing something I play on the internet... Short clip of play along taken during my practice yesterday.
Looking forward to see/hear more of these in the future. If I can overcome my shame, everyone should be able too... ;)
Nothing But Thieves - If I Were You
Super excited for #PracticeThursday ! Here's a fill I work on all the time, which I learned watching someone do it in another YT video, a very Weckl-like fill we will call ba ba da Ba ba da Ba
@aviadbd @zzzeek And so it shall be. :) #PracticeThursday is now a thing. π
@DrumHead @zzzeek we Could have a #PracticeThursday to encourage just that ;)
