MARLENE Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) Happy Friday! Ok, guys, this is my first post. Can anyone tell me which DVD has the most or/best drum solos? I saw everyone's advice on getting the 2008 Countdown but I really love the drum solos. They always seem too short! Anyone have any suggestion? Thanks!! :) Edited December 9, 2011 by MARLENE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!! :) If you're looking for pre-written solos, I can't help you. But if you're willing to take the time to combine some different shorter tricks, get "ScoJo's Lick of the Week." Scott Johnson, the BD percussion instructor , goes through some "Licks" that he wrote, which basically means really awesome tricks that you can do with a snare. He combines all kinds of rudiments, and invents some, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of what's in DCI store, is there a DVD you would pick which you thought had the best drum solos? .....or is that an impossible task?

Honestly, I just watch what my Dad buys for me to watch. I don't really look at what's for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARLENE Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 Marlene, do you mean best drum features from a DCI year? Yeah. I absolutely love when they feature the drums alone. I don't have one DCI DVD of my own and this Christmas, I'm buying at least 1 of them. For sure I'll be getting the 2008 Countdown because everyone posted that it was amazing. There's just nothing like DCI. I got addicted when my best friend married someone who used to play in the brass section of the Drum Corps and after I saw one of his old DVD's, it's been part of me ever since. I'm ruined!!!

I bought SCV Percussion: 1969 - 1999 CD and often play it on my CD player at work with headphones on my ears; my productivity increased and the office noise decreased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARLENE Posted December 11, 2011 Author Share Posted December 11, 2011 Marlene, do you mean best drum features from a DCI year? YES! About 2-3 years ago I saw someone's DCI DVD (MY FIRST DCI TASTE) and there was a piece that had an amazing drum portion but I can't even remember who it was.......Blue Devils, I don't know. At this point it's an eeny, meeny, miny moe. I was hoping some drum fanatics like me would be able to give me some direction. Thanks!
