Beginner - Drum Basics: Fills(Drums tabs)

	        




Fills. Some are easy some are hard. Ive compiled a few simple ones for
now. Start with a nice simple beat then add a simple fill. The simplest fill
is to add a crash at the beginning of a measure. like so.

Hh :--x-x-x-x-x-x-x-:x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-:x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-:x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-:
Sn :----o-------o---:----o-------o---:----o-------o---:----o-------o---:
Bs :o-------o-------:o-------o-------:o-------o-------:o-------o-------:

repeat this. Keep playing it over and over again. Get used to having a crash
at the beginning of your songs/measures. Once you\'ve mastered it you can change
the beat to something more complicated if you want.

Here is a nice 16th roll as a fill.
