Foreplay/Longtime Intro: Real Drums

So, here it is. An actual Rock Band song, translated to drums, so to speak. I took liberties on some parts of the song: I don't have two crash cymbals, so I had to hit the same one for when the blue and green are supposed to be seperate crashes, for instance. The way I set this up was to let the song play out on practice mode, not hitting anything, and muting the drums in the options. (That's why the notechart shows me missing all the notes.) Then, i just spliced the audio together. Yes, the cymbals need to be loosened, however, the set was used when we bought it: the previous owners did not take care of it, and thus if you loosen it, sometimes the entire cymbal pops off. this is also why the drumset sounds like crap. The china cymbal was broken because of a neighbor abusing the set, as was my hi-hat pedal. I probably won't make any more real drums videos for a while after this, solely because the computer i'm using to watch the video clips of the notes on lags severely, causing the video to skip sporadically, unfortunately, like it did in this video a few times. Once I setup something alternate to watch the notes on, i'll make more of these.
