Guest Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Hey, tipit. There is a show coming up, and I was wondering, does anybody know any good drum solos, or songs with drum solos that I might be able to preform? The show is probally aorund may, but the auditions are coming up soon. I have been drumming for about 2 and a half years now, and really want to do something for this :shock: Oh, length doesn't matter too much, I can add/repeat parts. EDIT: Ok, thanks for your help all, im still taking advice. A reminder is too keep solos not completely insane. Example; someone suggested moby [bleep] (censored, so think of the whale). It's a great solo, but JOhn Bonham had been a drummer for 15years beore he even attempted it. I still want all of your solos, though. I need all the inspirations possible to help me wirte it! Oh, if anyone has the acttual notation for it, it would be great if you could give me a PM. I can read both tabs and traditional music (The Every Good BoyDeserves Fudge, or FACE if you will). All help gets milk and cookies! Post, now. You know you want milk and cookies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Adam Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Van Halen's Hot for Teacher :thumbsup: What kind of show? A solo performance or band (with fills and solo for you)? Just play whatever comes to your head and keep it in time and flowing. That's what I do (but I just play drums in my basement sometimes, never anything big).

Not sure if I have enough drums, though. That would make a nice intro for sure, though. EDIT: Damn, thats inhumaine :shock: Definatly going to try and work a lign or 2 into my solo, though :P (Writing it now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lateralus Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 O Baterista and Der Trommler by Neil Peart are great solos. La lune ne garde aucune rancune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Adam Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Neil Peart (drummer from Rush) is great. I've seen vids of him and I think he was surrounded 360 degrees by all his drums (and he could play them, too). But I could be tall-taling on that... Anyways, maybe check some solo vids of him. Off Topic: Looking a Lateralus' name reminds me that I tried to buy that album today. But I mentioned it might have a PA sticker, and my parents got really worked up and made me show them the lyrics to the whole album #-o I'll have it tomorrow though. Just had to rant that.

FlameHawk18 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Well, it's not really a solo, but Slipknot's song "Eyeless" has a pretty awesome sounding intro. Not to mention, it sounds inhumane to me. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Range_This11 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Try it. "He could climb to it, if he climbed alone, and once there he could suck on the pap of life, gulp down the incomparable milk of wonder." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Try it. Honestly, I might be able to do that after a bit of practice. The hardest part, by far to me would be when he spinds his sticks and whatnot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcneilp Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 That Ralph Nader solo is insane. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsXzzbU6ajQ The only one that hasn't been said that i can think off from the top of my head at the moment. It isn't in the castle, It isn't in the mist, It's a calling of the waters, As they break to show, The new Black Death, With reactors aglow, Do you think your security, Can keep you in purity, You will not shake us off above or belowScottish frictionScottish fiction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
How2PK Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 [yt]ocfR3CIPFJo[/yt] Aja has some pretty good drums by Steve Gadd, if something from this song is useful for you (I don't know, I'm not a drummer) it would be the end I guess, it sounds pretty impressive to me at least. And if it's not of any help at least you've got an excellent song to listen to. :) Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!

If you only knew. I cannot spin sticks, at all. Nor, do I have the right kind of snare drum for that, so i suppose it doesn't really matter.

That dude is in the center three snares on one of the best drumlines in the entire world and that's his best work...there is no way you or any average drummer could play that. I can only touch a few of the rudiments and hybrids he's playing there and I've been marching center snare for 4 years and am on a professional WGI Drumline right now.

i_love_burritos Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Anything in Judas Priest, however I like Ellis better than Hinch. Painkiller intro is one of the best in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
