Video: Learn Funk Fills

OK, So big deal!
There was nothing there that made me write a letter home to tell mama about it.
Nice playing and all that, but what could be learned from watching the vids?
Sorry to be a dick, but!

Sorry, but you do not understand ...
I'm not David Garibaldi and I'ma big fan ... only proposal is to increase your vocabulary and help people who have difficulty ..... but .... if you have a vast knowledge very well!
Skip this video and do not write anything to your mother!

Thanks!

Don't be discouraged by what he told you. It was a nice clean video with helpful subtitles and slow playing to help us Beginners to Intermediates be able to figure out what you're playing. This will be helpful to me for when I play the funk grooves in Groove Essentials. Thank you for sharing.
 
Gerson,

I liked it! Think I will favorite it and come back and study it a little more. One of the things that I liked was that you maintained the back beat thru the fill! You also laid it out in a very simple, slow manner which indicates that you do really care about someone learning this.

Mike

Wow...just wow. Have a bad day there Bob? N00b was just trying to fit in here and help others where he could. Everyone else, me included, liked the video. Most of your posts here are supportive and complimentary, so this one really does not compute. But, you know what they say..."if you can't say anything nice about someone..."

I liked it too, and I wonder if Bob is having a bad day! There is so much trash that purports to be a drum lesson on the internet and very few videos that actually contribute to the body of knowledge. I liked this one and thought the playing was good. Please keep posting more and adding to the body of worthwhile knowledge.

Very nice.
This is stuff that I find very useful.

Keep them coming.

Gotta say I'm really taken back and surprised by your response, not like you. Have a bad day?

I enjoyed the video myself a combo I've never tried using the hats as part of the fill. Bookmark and come back to work on it. I like how you broke it down and slowed it down for guys to understand, nice job.
 
Alo da terrinha, Gerson! Muito obrigado pelos videos! Nao de atencao ao babaca que te ofendeu nao. Continue mandando bem!
 
Hey, check his other videos too. So far the few more that I have watched have been pretty helpful actually.

"N00b was just trying to fit in here and help others where he could", Agreed. Props to this guy for doing that.

I'm sorry, I was in a real crap mood.
This is the worst time of the year for me at work and I just lost it! I was dealing with the public all day and I guess that I just took it out on someone that didn't deserve it.
I hadn't had my Martini and my Jazz fix yet before I posted.
I felt bad about it and I thought about it today.
I apologize to gersonfilho and all.
I hope that you will accept it as heartfelt.

There ya go! That's the Bob we all know. I figured something wasn't right. Turns out it was alcohol and music! Ha! As Homer Simpson once said, "alcohol...the cause and solution to all of life's problems!" Go have a stiff one and put on some Coltrane...
