Members 1001gear Posted August 10, 2013 Members Share Posted August 10, 2013 This was my introduction to triplets. I didn't know they were grouped in threes but they sounded easy so I just banged attem left right left right and was quite satisfied. It wasn't till several years later learning notation and other levels of literacy that I finally grasped the figure. L r l R l r L r l R l r etc... Well that was the proverbial fecal content and the rest is history. Drummers are a special breed you know.For you musician types, you can try starting at a waltz tempo - 1 2 3, 1 2 3, 1 2 3 ___STRONG weak med, STRONG waek med, etc... until the stumbles go away.
