This is the last lesson in Chad Smith’s course, “Basic Rock Drumming Chad’s Way.” You should start with Lesson 1 if you are a beginner.

Let’s learn some basic drum fills to go along with our drum beat variations.

Let’s add some musicality and dynamics to these patterns using the crash cymbals.

Let’s take time to review the three beats we learned and practice them with different right hand variations.

Let’s add more vocabulary to our drumming with rock beat #5.

Let’s learn a new beat now that applies the same concepts we learned in rock beat #1.

We are now going to add in the other drum set elements into this beat. Make sure that you are still producing a good sound

In this lesson, we put everything together to play our first full beat. You’ve heard this on countless records and Chad shows you his way
