It is not a if your lick gets chosen thing...it is literally the first person to post a lick during the week. That way we don't need a sign-up list and licks still get posted.

Now, about the lick I wrote:

I had ventured on snare science on several of the licks posted had tons of timing and stuff like fivelets, ninelets, etc. That was something I had not done much of, so I thought this would be a good opportunity.

I originally wrote a version of this lick that did include a few flams. However, I decided they really weren't necessary so I took them out and changed a couple of the rhythms to make the feel smoother.

If you are learning this, I would suggest taking out all of the diddles and learning just the "check pattern." That way you can get a feel for the music before adding in the "fluff."

Also, there are a few words that can be used to simulate fivelets:

university
hippopotamus
homo sapiens
jennajameson (adults only)
opportunity

Those are just a few examples

What! Not necessary!!!!

Lord I ask forgivness for Drumholio, for he knows not what he says. Oh Lord.. How super you are in your forgivness, I ask that you not smite him dead by a mad stricken Sloth.

We thank you for the most and greatest rudiment ever devised.

And now my Brethern, let's sing the hymn " o' how great the Flam "

Thanks for the free beats! Hopefully when I get the time, I'll write something out for everybody and post it up.

I promise that I still worship at the altar of flam, I just chose to go to the dark side on this one. It will be OK....you will live.

Go with flam
Drumholio

Ahh, just checking my son. I understand your fleshly desires to seek the Dark Magic of odd time and the 5lets and such. But we need not forget the fundamentals we learned as children. I will say a prayer for you and I give you 12 lesson 25's as pentance.

I bless you my son, in the name of the down stroke and the up stroke and in the Grace note. Chop in peace!

I just got back into ruidemmental drumming after a long hiatus and have been looking for fun stuff to play with. this has been a fun one to work on. been playing with fivelet grids and diddle grids a lot lately this is a combo of both. Can't wait to see the next one. Its like Christmas every week.

And I have thrown some flams in on this one, And Sir Flamalot is correct it really spices it up hahaha. Gonna avoid saying the tempo I play it at to avoid embarrassment.

you don't have to mention the tempo...I will let that one slide

However, I want to know where you are throwing in the flams, just for the sake of curiosity

Really glad this isn't too hard that it's discouraging. I think I'll attempt it!

I'll be posting a video this weekend of it.

CURSES. I had to paint brake drums so hopefully I figure out a way to record it on my phone and make it sound and look decent.
