Keeping Time With Music
What separates Incredible Drummers From Mediocre Ones

One thing separates Great drummers from Mediocre ones.

Keeping Time With Music.

Whether you are a Drummer yourself, or someone who plays with them, you know that holding a constant time and tempo is the most important thing in the world. Terry Bozzio Drums

You can do the most incredible fills in the world, and be as fancy as you like, but if you can't keep time, your music will Sound like Crap. Plus, no one will want to play with you.


How do I learn to keep tempo?



Well, there IS a few ways to do it. Some people swear by playing drums with a Metronome. But I have a better way.

Put on your Damn Blaring headphones, and just Play Along

There really is no better way to learn to keep tempo.

If you use this technique, you can successfully learn to stop Speeding up and Slowing Down, You will learn the Drums to your Favorite artist, and best of all You will be Having Fun.


Why hasn't anyone else figured this out?



....................................THEY HAVE!

I really don't know of very many great Drummers who haven't slapped on their ear buds and worked past their inability to keep a solid beat.

I mean, there is the odd, extremely talented musician who just is really good at keeping time.

But for the rest of us.........We listen.


If you haven't done so already:

(That's A Clue!)
