No, actually we don’t think we are insane. Why? Because we know you’re gonna

And it can, and will work for you to. All you need is the desire to play the drums.

So, even though we take ALL the risk in putting this course into your hands today,
we don’t even feel that there is much risk at all because this drum course really
is that good. It is the fastest, easiest way to play the drums.

The "1-2-3-4" Drumming Method

admin — Mon, 15 Nov 2010 13:21:14 +0000

Learning to play the drums has never been easier. First, you need to simply count
“1-2-3-4” in rhythm. Then, we are going to add in each limb, one at a time.

We start with the right hand on the hi-hat. You can hit it on each beat –
1 -2 -3 – 4.

Next, we’ll add the left hand on the snare drum. However, here we will only
hit it on beats 2 and 4.

Third, we add the bass drum kick with our right foot on beats 1 and 3.

Finally, (step 4), we’ll add the hi-hat pedal with the left foot on beats 2 and 4.

That’s it — you’re playing the drums! What could be simpler?

Drums Made Simple vs Private Drum Lessons

admin — Sun, 14 Nov 2010 13:28:51 +0000

I’m not going to knock one-on-one private drum lessons. In fact, from time to time,
they are necessary later in your career. However, the problem is that they are expensive. Also,
if you don’t have the right teacher, they can do more harm than good by getting
you into bad drumming habits.

In the Drums Made Simple course, you will save a ton of time and money because
you’ll be learning exactly what you need to learn in a systematized format.

You’ll learn the 1-2-3-4 method.

You’ll learn a variety of beats you can use.

You’ll learn all about drumming technique.

And finally, you’ll learn how to avoid common mistakes that beginners tend to make.
If you’re just getting started learning to play the drums, I would highly recommend
this course.

You won’t go wrong, and you’ll save a ton of money.

The biggest challenge for beginning drummers

admin — Fri, 12 Nov 2010 13:25:23 +0000

The biggest challenge is being confident while you’re playing. This goes hand in hand with
overcoming stagefright.

Now, I know there are all kinds of psychological tricks, theories, and weird techniques. But
my personal opinion, and also my experience working with students, is that when it all comes
down to it, what really makes a person confident is having solid skills.

If you know what you’re doing, whether it’s in front of the drum kit, or any other instrument,
things will come naturally. You’ll have fun playing the drums.

That’s why, in Drums Made Simple, not only do you get the basic beats you need to get
started playing the drums as quickly and easily as possible, but you get a whole section
on technique to make you as comfortable as possible.
