I have been trying to do a cover of the last half of Stairway to heaven on Drums and I can pretty much play the entire song except for that SINGLE FILL!!!! The one at 6:23 in the song. Here is what I do:
I use my right hand for my snare and tom 2 (I am subbing tom 2 for my floor tom until I can get it good, its less of a leap), and my left for tom 1. I then pretty much play the fill (I would draw out some sheet music, but I'm too lazy), adding a triplet on the toms, ending with a snare. I managed to do this at 100bps (the speed of the song), but it sounds incomplete, not full. I know I need to add a second hit per tom before the triplets, but how exactly? My hands are straining just to get one hit...any suggestions? Tips? Exercises?
