Drummers help

[BWS]]

I am trying to learn the song Windowpane, and I am having some trouble with the fill at ~3:30. Can any drummers give me any tips/tabs or anything to help me? Tabs would be best but any help is appreciated! :Smokin:

do you know what ghost notes are? just get into the rythem, listen to when he's accenting the toms and cymbals, and the rest should just come naturally... maybe.

Yes, I do know what ghost notes are, I just don't know how to tackle this fill...It overwhelms me.

I felt the same way when I tried to tackle "when" on guitar. Now to some here it may come easier but at first you feel like giving up. So get past the psychological part and tackle it!

watch the video on you tube of windowpayne and watch lopez

They barely show lopez, I wish he would've done a video of him playing it just purely him. Lopez/Axe/Any other Opeth fan who plays drums...Feel free to record windowpane
Edit: I watched the video on youtube, and the video on Lamentations and I cant get a clear view of the fill.

If anyone has AIM and can help me, AIM: MozartDeathMetal

I don't really see how it could be difficult? It's not technically hard. Practice and try to get the feeling right and the fill in will come.

It's not that tough. Besides, I don't see why you would stress over nailing a drum fill note for note like you would a guitar solo. It's way hard to judge the pitch of the toms most of the time, and odds are that your set has different parts and a different sound.

How long have you been playing? If this fill overwhelms you, then I doubt you could handle even the first two beats of the song.

Start at the beginning and play it note by note and build up until you can get to the end. The first couple bars are just some hi-hat tricks, for which you probably need a pretty nice hi-hat to get that sound. I don't think mine would sound that good.

Create a fill of your own instead

I've been playing a year and I can play the first two parts perfectly, my toms are tuned pretty damn near Lopez's. I wanna play this as accurately as I can.

just practice over and over again, youll get it

anyone mind tabbing it? im interested in trying to play it but cant findany tabs and am too lazy to do it myself.

Get some good headphones and a 320kb rip of the lamentations audio. That's all you really need.
