try going to this website, and following these directions.
1. go to www.vicfirth.com
2. at the top page, there is a bar that says "education" on it.
3. click education, then student center, then snare drum. (both from drop-down menu)
4. from here, look at "brush up on your rudiments" and "learn stick tricks with jeff queens". there are videos to watch that he explains how to do them. pretty cool. it is easy as well. have fun and hope that helps

Who mentioned 5 stroke rolls?

Oh. That might have been me. Why?

Sometimes replies show up after a bunch of other posts so it gets confusing

About those beats, `drummergirl`. Well, maybe you want to clik the notification box, first. When I figured out the beats from Drumline, I had watched it like ten or more times. But for other beats and sheet music, it would probably help if you put the counts on the top of the notes.

Hey Sean is there anyway I can get one of these drums by any chance

If you mean the drums in Drumline then dish out the money man `cause those cost $420. But a, if it`s a vintage you want, go to eBay and search for `marching snare` and EVERYONE is selling vintage! Yet again, dish out the money. The highest bid i`ve seen is probably $300. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!

No, Im talking about the ones you saw at some shop that the owner didnt no what to do with.

I have not been playing drums that long but i always would tap and beat on diff stuff untill i found out that i had it in me to play the drums. So i bought a set and now im in a band. Also i was asked to be in a drum line and am one of the better players in the line. (not braggin, cuz i dont like bragging or braggers, just i guess the Lord blessed me with it naturally. But i need some hints and/or tips on makin my own music.. Any thing will help thanks email me at kielhigg@yahoo.com AIM- kielhigg238

OOOOOh, those drums :0. Yeah, those drums are ancient and look ancient. They`re not in the best shape but a little cleaning can make those sukers shine. The drums are Ludwig and already have a strap, knee brace, and visalite as you know. The snares are gut snares(below) and the strainer is I think a super sensitive strainer.(look on www.ludwig-drums.com)They`re not the best model ever. A bit rusty but the drums are in good condition as far as sound.

If you ever see a vintage drum with a single rod lug, don`t buy it. The drum will never stay in tune, so says my uncle.
