Usually when I jam around, I get a little ahead of myself in a fill. Meaning I'm not really sure of what I'm doing in the fill at the moment, just winging it. It seems like I'm always thinking in terms of alternating "single strokes". If it's not a fill I haven't practiced, I'll be playing strictly alternating single strokes. Rarely a 3/4/5 stroke roll thrown in, but there is no fancy paradiddle-ing going on.
Just curious if anyone else feels this way? If I was to use paradiddles in a fill on the fly, I have to "really" think about it. Single strokes just seem to be more natural and what my body gravitates too in a pinch. Maybe it's just normal for everyone?
