I've only been playing drums for 10, which is a lot shorter than a lot of the guys on here. And I'm not going to claim that I'm wise beyond my years or anything. But one thing I've learned over the years is that a lot of "simple" grooves can be a lot harder than you think, and that it's a lot more fun to me now to play songs with "simple" grooves and try to them sound really good. If you would've asked me in high school to play Hotel California, id be a cocky idiot and say that it was way too easy, but today I'd try really hard to get the groove really solid and the dynamics perfect and add my own style to it and stuff like that. When you can make "simple" songs sound way better than the next drummer, that's when you start getting recognized for more drum work.
