What's Carmine doing here?

0:42 - 0:52 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2z8TpFV748

My band is covering this, but I'm a bit stumped as to what Carmine's playing in these parts. It sounds to me like skkkskkkskkkskkk over a bar but he's also whacking away at the floor tom by the look of it.

Any ideas anyone?
Not sure about the bass drum part (maybe just on the 1 to coincide with the crash), but the floor tom on 2,3, & 4 is carrying the vibe.

Cracking band performance BTW! :) No hiding behind that drum part ;)

It's just an even handed roll,crashing on the 1,with a triplet feel

He's using 1 hand on the floor tom,and the other on the mounted tom.I was able to see the Fudge live twice,and that's how he played it both times.

This "WhoIsTony" guy...(wink wink) has never been wrong with these kinds of questions. He really knows his stuff.

EDIT; in Bos post of the more recent performance you can hear more clearly that he is playing 8ths on the kick not quarters

What was I thinking.....mea culpa.......thanks..Tony:):)

Didn't realise the BD part was crotchets - when I played it I I thought they were 16ths so my drum part came out as LH snare, RH crash and hats on the one with 16ths on BD. Nowhere near as powerful, but I never expected to be able to play a CA part note for note.

Carmine was sensational in that track. That clip is almost Pythonesque in its alpha male posturing - love it! Special kudos for the bassist for an excellent silly dance.
 
Wowza ... I hadn't seen these guys play before. But that was quite the show/performance/spectacle.

LOL ... +1 for the comment (and the bassist's dance).

And I had noticed this "WhoIsTony" fellow being active on the forum. I saw the ball getting bigger, then it hit me ......

man, I'm slow.

I got on to this today. There's something brutally unorthodox about it -- and tricky; I had to start at 35bpm -- but it feels like a groove that will open up new pathways
