Re: Me Playing Live
Too many 16th notes, the guitar has it covered. Ghost notes on snare are not needed. And you look bored. Other than that sounds good.
Play 1/8th notes and rock it. 1/8 note meaty tom fills etc...

Pocket feels great! That's the most important thing. As far as the ghost notes, I thought they worked great during the verse with the upbeat hihat. When it transitions, you could argue it is maybe a bit too busy, but's that subjective. The time and pocket stayed constant regardless - so kudos. Great playing.

Re: Me Playing Live
Nice! Your backbeat is already consistent en that snare 'cuts' great. Since you're looking for opinions, the only thing that stood out for me was the fills you played. They kinda 'lost' the energy of the beat in stead of emphasizing the moment. Anyway, I think you did a good job

I liked the ghost notes.
Great stuff man. Solid.

Re: Me Playing Live
IMO, the parts seemed appropriate and the back beat did not bother me at all. Sounds great!

Re: Me Playing Live
GREAT playing. You played for the song and made it pulse hard.
Not sure your cam, but it had excellent sound quality. That
snare popped hard and the hats, cymbals came out nice...love
the smaller crash. Very tasty hat work, especially the 16ths..
didn't over do it, and the groove fit the song.
As for the ghosts and "looking bored"...ummm, yeah, not even
going to comment on that.
