love me some freezepop!

they'll be the perfect lead in to playing TB:RB :)

just to explain to OP, rock music is overwhelmingly in 4/4 (4 quarter notes per measure) so if you see 3 evenly spaced 'notes' in a measure in RB, they are probably triplets.

the beat and fill...

Completely unverified science fact of the day: assuming Rock Band is giving you the band's perspective, the delay would be due to 1) echo, and 2) the time it takes for the sound (crowd singing) to...

Make sure you are sitting in the same position every time you fake drum. Experiment and try to figure out the location where you have the most comfort and power on the pedal (for me this is fairly...

good god, no wonder so many ppl break their pedals.

16 hour drum solo!!!!!!!

This is great advice and coincidentally what I was going to say. When you're playing, try to relax and just listen and play along w/ the music as opposed to just playing/reacting to the chart. I...

First of all, Night Lies rules.

Second, this sounds like the exact problem I had. I had trouble w/ repeated triple bass in relatively simple songs like Welcome Home and 3's & 7's. It drove me...

hopefully this EP can be purchased at Target.

It's not bad. It won't teach you how to play drums or automatically make you a better drummer (I think this is what fake video game drummers expect sometimes), but as a tool it's pretty darn useful....

Man, Toad would be phenomenal in RB. Phenomenal! I have a Toad thread in here somewhere...here it is My song picks are in there.

The song I really want nowadays is Fly From Heaven: great vocal...

yeah 16ths. The beat is called a disco beat; if you have RB2, there are three different disco beats to practice in the drum trainer.

Move Along is also roll-tastic and has this beat in the...

I think it's pretty darn cool. It's great for putting a name on all the beats you've been playing and figuring out what your technical weaknesses are.

If you're expecting it to hold your hand and...

For the millionth time, it's not HMX's fault your A/V equipment sucks. This just in: your receiver sucks at decoding. Sorry, dude.

On IRL drums, the snare gets played w/ the right hand in any song w/ a disco beat (16ths on the hi-hat aka crazy drum charts w/ lots of fast red notes). For normal rock beats, the snare is played w/...

i just picked up the second of 2 they had at CambridgeSide Galleria (Cambridge, MA). The other one was being purchased as I got there.

If you're using open-air headphones, an easy decibel test is to try to talk over the music. If you can hear yourself talk in a moderate voice, you're fine. If you have to yell, it's too loud.

Oasis pack & Boston pack are both great on guitar
STP - Interstate Love Song*
The Police - Synchronicity II*
Judas Priest - The Hellion/Electric Eye (rocks your face off!)
QOTSA - 3's & 7's*

QFT. I'm not the biggest metal fan, but it's impossible not to love a song that rocks so damn hard.

i look forward to this 'GH4: Clear Channel Edition' and am looking to purchase CDs from these bands 'Lincoln Park' and 'Sub Lime', are they good?
