    You are not reading my message, it says IN GENERAL, not ALL Beginners, and in general it is...you are just not sure...anyway, the thread starter is a beginner (he is trying to play some basic rock rhythms in his own words)...

    Fast fills on toms in metal

    No, 16 beats done each/per second, that is the speed we are talking about 16ths at quarter = 240 bpm is like 32nds at quarter= 120 bpm (expresed like this because "my" metronome does not go so fast): Me playing a Whole note rolls at that speed:

    Fast fills on toms in metal

    is improving inevitable

    It is important to note that Kenny Werner is a notable Jazz musician (pianist) born and raised in New York who studied at the Manhattan School of Music and Berklee, his books are excellent, they talk in general about "stage fright", "flow", "zone", etc... but in Drummerworld we are talking about...

    is improving inevitable

    1) The first problem you have is that the question is about improving and not about making money. 2) The second is that guys who can play better can also play Money Beat and Simple Fills (just to give examples, Vinnie, Gadd, Weckl, to mention welknown ones who have done wellknown gigs of that...

    The Fear Of Drum Solos

    WHY? Did I talk about me? IF YOU READ MY MESSAGE ("most part of members who cannot play solos (generally due to lack of technical proficiency) hate solos.) then , if you don´t hate solos, you are not included in MOST, for you to be included it should say "ALL" and not "MOST", you only cannot...

    The Fear Of Drum Solos

    The "General Philosophy of the Drummerworld Forum" has been clearly stated, for the most part of members who cannot play solos (generally due to lack of technical proficiency) hate solos. That is called in the music circles "The Philosophy of The Fox and the Grapes" from Aesop's fable.
