Fellow drum mates, naka encounter na ba kau ng ganito?
Sabi nya, I needed a metronome daw to keep my timing/tempo, kasi ung ibang songs e mabilis yung palo ko. So I agreed, no questions asked.
And then the next time we met, wag daw akong magbilang, pakiramdaman na lang daw. What the ????? Me mga songs na kulang sya sa bar na gusto nya kahit kulang tapusin na ung song. para saan pa ung practicing ko ng tempo/timing kung sya mismo ang sisira ng timing ko.
What should I do?
Obey him na lng and do what he says. Or stick to the bar/timing?
Di ba we drummers tend to count 1-2-3-4 pero sa 3 pa lng tatapusin na nya or vice versa. Sometimes during outro, halimbawa 16 counts before mag end...di na nya susundin and magtapos na lng kung kelan gusto. Which I think someways applies naman pero not all the time. Kasi me mga fills pa tayo for example before we execute the ending of the song d b?
Parang ang gulo kc e....pakiramdaman pero he wants me to have a metronome (e di ba metronome din is set for 4/4, 3/4, 5/8 etc. tapos on 3 pa lng shift na to Bridge kunwari, di ba mag conflict un?
Thanks
