Please note, what I played here in drum solo section is just a bit of fun that I made up on the spot - please don't try to copy this, make your own thing up here - that's the point! :) All details about the new Rockschool drum grades here: https://www.rslawards.com/rockschool/… Have fun, Mike :) Kit Yamaha Recording Custom - 22”/10”/12”/16” Tama John Blackwell 6.5 x 13” Snare Evans Hydraulic Red Drumheads, Evans Edge Control Reverse Dot (Snare) Meinl Byzance Cymbals - 20" Sand Ride, 18” Sand Thin Crash, 16" Vintage Crash, 14” Sand Hats Vic Firth Extreme 5A sticks
