I was told there would be no math. Jeeez. I'm with Steve. That first bit will turn your head around.

At about 28:05, Vinnie talks about a "non-alternating flam drag"...

Blushda?

Couldn't resist...what.

Rob
...couldn't resist the "what." , either.

I can't get past the 6:00 - 7:00 minute mark:

"I started with a basic 7 pattern" [drumming] "then started playing on the e and a of the 7." [better drumming] "then started doing over the bar triplets" [insanity drumming] "then 5's ya know" [uber drumming]

Thanks for posting this!

I was pretty blown away when Vinnie casually discussed and demonstrated quintuplet based, over the bar line, fills. I can't wait to try some of that on the next gig.

[deseipel]

part of me wants to believe that stuff like 5 over 2 can be played on gigs, but its a matter of finding the spot in a song and the right orchestration.

[Josiah]

Nice find on the first one! Lot of that stuff is very carefully transcribed out in the UnReel Drum Book.

Rob - You are absolutely correct, the non-alt-flam drag is the blushda lick

Second clip is an excerpt from here: http://www.houseofdrumming.com/mp3s/vin ... alking.mp3

I wish Vinnie would release an instructional DVD in 2012!
