One of the things drummers spend so much of their drumming practice time working on. But I gotta be honest...when I first started out, I HATED DRUM ROLLS. I simply didn't see the application on the kit for them. Most of the songs I listened to...well...they didn't even have ONE drum roll in them. No 5 stroke roll. No 17 stroke roll. No 10 stroke roll. I started gigging very early on and so most of my practice time was spent working on things directly relating to a gig. And most of the time, those gigs didn't involve drum rolls (excluding orchestra type stuff). But then I stumbled on something in my practice time that opened up my eyes to just how many thousands of applicable drum roll combinations there are. And wouldn't you know it, the more I listened to the classic players, the more I heard their application of them.When I was coming up and first learning the drums, there were certain patterns and drum licks that I would notice players playing. Similar drumming material with a slightly different spin. This particular concept has to do with applying drum rolls to the drum set. This really helped to open up a lot of creative drumming ideas for me. I hope it does the same for you!Leave a comment below and let me know your thoughts!___________________________________________________________FREE drum lesson series "Creating A Drum Fill Vocabulary": stephensdrumshed.com/creating-drum-fills-signupFREE download "30 Days to Better Doubles": http://www.stephensdrumshed.com/emailstuffInstagram: http://instagram.com/stephensdrumshedFacebook: facebook.com/stephen.taylor.drum.lessonsTwitter: twitter.com/drummeretcCymbals: ZildjianDrums: TamaSticks: Vic Firth 5AHeads: AquarianIn Ears: Alclair In Ear MonitorsLauten MicrophonesEarthworks Microphones

I had one particular session where 3 companies and artists were splitting the session (everyone came in with a song and in 4 hours, we hit them all. They split the cost of the musicians). The last person came in and said "ok, this will be for a commercial. The car will be going through the mountains...close ups of the car, winding roads. Play what you feel works!" Then they walked out and I had a studio full of musicians looking at me through the glass waiting for me to cut something so we could move on with the session.

When we learn things from other drummers, we unintentionally make them a part of our own playing. Those things start showing up. And over time, we begin to make them our own.
