You are writing/producing modern (current) country.

Put a Luke Bryan CD on your iPod. Slap on some headphones. Sit down to a drum set and learn every song on the CD until you can play along without missing a beat (pun intended - or not...)

When you've got that, move to a Rascal Flatts CD. Rinse. Repeat.

FGL. Rinse. Repeat.

Billy Currington....

After a few, you should pretty much have the current "drum fill feel" down pat.

No need to complicate it.


And that is pretty much what I did. I tend to like to push the envelope...strangely in both directions...too much or too little.

I broke it down and I think I have a pretty good instinct for it now. Lay back here, and here, push a bit here.

Thanks again! You always have clear cut advice! VERY appreciated as always!
