Tom thingy Danny Carey does in Aenima

[Mad Matty]

okay, sorry if this has been asked. I'm trying to find out what Danny plays in the beginning of the song Aenima. The basic rythm is simple but I can't make out which toms he is using. How do you play it?

I believe it goes a little something like this........

6/8
-----1----2----3----4--- 5-----6
SD --------x----------------x----
FT x----x----x----x----x-------
BD -xx---------x----------------

thats the jist of it, im not really sure how to write tabs, but that looks pretty good to me, he might vary up from the floor tom to his rack toms, but still keeping the 6/8 pulse, and the second half of the verse he brings the hi-hat in on the downbeat of every note

and in case you are wondering the breakdown part of that song is fairly easy too......he just does triplets between his hands and feet......HFF HFF HFF HFF....with accenting the 1 and 4....

hope this helps!!!

thats not right at all .. I dont write tabs ... you can request sheet music from me if you really need me to write it out .. ,but i would just use your ear and watch him play ..
and the " break down " trips on feet with tom accents

SN|------X-----------X-----|
FT|x-xxx---x-x-x---x-------|
BD|x---x---x---x---x-------|
HF|x---x---------------x---|

the begining doesnt have the HF in it but adds that l8r.

didnt put detail on accents in the tab just the "jist"

bass notes played fairly soft
