–Great!
–This week, work on #5-6. Aim for four uninterrupted repetitions of each, making sure the bass drums land on the correct counts
ACDC: Back in Black
–Great! Keep tidying up everything up until the end of the guitar solo (ca. 2:30)
–Moving onto the Bridge (ca. 2:50), you’ll need to learn a new beat! This one isn’t too hard, but it’s quite different from what we’ve worked on so far. Use Visual Drumming ex. 24 (in personal folder) to help you prepare! Work on it the same way as the other Vis. Drum. exercises above
