In the middle of a two month western tour, local band Buster Blue made a short stop in Reno to re-fuel and play a surprise acoustic show at St. James Infirmary. Before they went on I had a chance to ask the newest addition to the band, Fil Corbitt, a few questions about drumming, touring, and performing with Buster Blue.
Make sure to keep up with Fil and his life on tour via his blog, Van Sounds.
This video is the second in the Back-Stick Beat video tutorial series.
The Double Stroke Roll is featured heavily in many rudiments and rhythms on the drums making it a great place to start when learning how to play.
This roll can used to accomplish 5, 7, 9, 13, 15, and 17 stoke rolls and beyond. You can gain the knowledge of essentially six different rudiments by learning to use the Double Stroke roll effectively.
