Splitting any exercises, cadences, rudiments, etc. is always fun.

ok so you play this exercise in 4/4
fam accent fam accent flam flam | flam accent flam accent Flam flam| flam accent flam accent flam accent flam accent | flam flam flam flam flam flam flam flam | Flam
flam accents are in eight note triplet form
flams are in eith note form
you play that for a while then one person says another triplet basses rudiment and the next rep you have to replace the flam accents with it
then some onelse says a non triplet based rudiment and the next rep it replaces the flams (still with the new triplet rudiment)
and then you keep changing the rudiments
when you break you lose

I've recently learned the paradiddle race, and played add-a-lick, which are pretty fun.


And of course we throw our sticks against things and try to catch them again. Probably a bad idea.

I have one for my percussion section. It's called "Look up from your darn books and watch the Conducter for goodness sakes your playing gosh darn quarter notes."

Lol, nevermind. If you have seen the movie (please spare me) "Drumline" there's a part where the section leader and Mr. Wannabe, Nick Cannon, just play a simple Quarter notes for 4 counts, then roll for 4 counts, and they get faster and faster each time without looking down! Person that loses it, um, loses.

Actually those are eigth notes followed by diddles. Its in 1 measure with a tempo increase..all though it could be broken down into a 2/4 measure.

Something thats fun is outrageous tempo changes in cadences and exercises..such as doing eigths at tempo 100 then bump it up too like 180 then down to 80...Its a good way to note tempo inconsistencies as well as dynamic transitions from slow to fast to slower.

Ooohhhh...Diddles, rolls, it's all the same to me! Lol.

there is a difference. Diddles are 2 notes played on the same hand on after another. A roll can be diddles, singles, etc

either way, its in the rudiments

Off-beats

One person plays notes at any given speed, and another
person plays on the off beat

Its obviously harder if the person starts off fast
