drum videos > drum tabs

[SockCymbal]

I've seen a number of people interested in drum tabs here...but personally, while I can tab drum parts, Carter, or basically any drummer who uses a variety of techniques and "non-linear" playing, cannot be expressed through tabs. Tabbing is simply an inefficient and uneffective tool for writing out and quantifying complex drumming.

Therefore, if there is interest, I can do what there is for guitar on the home page (videos of left hand to show technique and fingering), and make some short clips of parts of DMB songs on the drums. I think this could help a lot of people hear JUST what carter is playing while watching the whole thing, as well as hearing it played slowly.

Opinions?
