    Excellent instructor. Your execution is spot on. I started drum when I was a Cadet at Mount Saint Joseph Military Academy. The cadets from West Point would come teach our Drum Corps. One Cadet would teach the drum section the other Cadet that would come would teach the brass line. I was a snare drummer, this was back in the mid fifties that's how I started to learn, how to drum correctly. I was a member of the Floyd Bennett golden eagles 1960 and 1961, then a member of the Long Island sunrises 1964 through 1968. Anybody that wants to learn to be a competitive drummer you do a great job and you are a great instructor. I strongly recommend anybody that wants to learn to play snare drunk correctly you are the person to teach them. A good dear friend of mine that is no longer with us, John dowling, he has taught many of the top drum lines in the nation, he is the person that developed back sticking and toilet for the first time to the Air Force drum quartet, they came in first place, the judges were flabbergasted and the audience couldn't believe what they were witnessing I believe the year was around 1960 he is in the drum c o r p s Hall of Fame he has won many individual snare drum competitions as well as drum cortech and he has taught some of the top drum lines in the nation . Today is January 22nd 2024. Thank you for posting all the clips that you put out, I try to watch as many as possible when I can God bless you and your family

    Roughly 20 years ago a friend tried to teach me this. I was barely starting out and couldn't do it and I never really thought to come back to it once I was more prepared. The other day I was recommended a Flammus video and I starting thinking how ridiculous it was that I never learned it. So of course, I go to your channel and voila, there it is. Learned it incredibly fast thanks to your help. Thank you!

    This guy should definitely get more subs and views! The video quality and effort are great! Learned so many snare breaks and rudiments from these lessons. Thank you for spending the time to break these down. If you could please transcribe some madison scouts snare parts (2022 PLS!!!) that would be awesome since there are so few
