I listened to it. Killer Queen is a nice song to drum to because Freddie wrote the song with those 4/4 beats which make that song a pleasure to drum to.

To be honest, drums sound stupid on their own, you need another instrument with them, like it took Roger Taylor until 2005 to do a good drum solo, with the version he covered.

More than anything else i think the bits you played to show the piano is the king of instruments!

Good to see another fellow lefty!!

power from the port side.

not picking "holes" but as ive been a drummer for 16 years nearly 2 tips

1) relax you wrists, your using your arms way too much, in gig situation you use more energy than whats needed

2) loosen the sticks they're being strangled let them to do the work especially on cymbals etc

& just practice dont know who else you listen to or how long you've benn playing etc but listen to different drummers & steal stuff I do

Dont be so formulaic. Embelish things on a whim, its very easy to copy what is on the record.

And I am TRYING to copy Roger exactly, not 'embellishing' anything.

if you are a drummer you gotta give some respect to the death metal drummers as they are some of the most skilled drummers in the world :D

Kinda makes you feel like your head is gonna explode, and I don't mean that as a good thing. Don't you think any talent these guys have is completely overshadowed by that ridiculous "singing?"

actually i dont, im a big death metal fan and i cant see any other vocal style fit this kind of music. Its very aggressive and just wouldnt work with clean vocals as good, ok maybe if Freddie sang on it :D

vocals aside these guys are incredibly talented musicians and anyone who knows anything about playing an instrument would know that.

oh and i checked your profile info and they are actually from south carolina! lol

"if you are a drummer you gotta give some respect to the death metal drummers as they are some of the most skilled drummers in the world :D"

I think you mean 'fastest', and not skilled.

Steve Gadd, Buddy Rich - now there is skill!
