Inspired by Lefty2 and his country metal video, I figured if a country drummer could learn metal technique, why not a metal guy learn country technique?
Honestly I have never even attempted a train beat until recently, so my knowledge of it is almost non-existent. Here's what I did: rlRl rlRl with my feet alternating between kick/hats on the r & R respectively. Am I even close? Are there different kinds of train beat? How expressive can a train beat get before becoming a snare solo? Are they only used in country and is relative genres?
I found it to be a bit mentally difficult at first also. Seems much harder than it sounds, or maybe it is just me.
