Hi Swiss!

Well, for me, it's always been about feel AND timing, so, playing to records was always the way for me to get a good "pocket",,,Being tigh and accurate may not be as important as how it feels WITH the band...as long as everyone is doing it together, thats what matters! an in general, practice at medium slow speeds, from 75-95..this is what gives drummers the hardest times..

All my best!
Pat

As a teenager I used to have a play along video of Pat Petrillo and I learned a lot about rudiments and some of which I was even able to fit into punk drumming.

Great video and even though I was a punk drummer I could never get up to the Pat Petrillo speeds of these rudiments. Hands were a blur at the higher speeds but I did learn to incorporate a lot of flamadiddles :)

I only had a few videos and that one was played to death and ended up with me having to spool it around before I could play it towards the end.

One of the best instructional videos ever.

Best
