LESSON MENU #1 (LEVEL #1): Beginners
You are wanting to see IMMEDIATE RESULTS
from your DRUM LESSONS search. Am I correct?
- If you'll simply take a second and e-mail me, I'll teach you PRIVATELY (via e-mail) , for totally free.
- I'm prepared to send you to the specific lessons that you (as an individual) should study, in accordance with your specific needs.
WHAT IF. . . I could have you playing the full drum set along with 50-million to 150 million songs (for free) in under an hour or two?
. . . Even if you DO NOT own a drum set, yet!
Would that grab your attention? I can do it, but you'll need to e-mail me.
WHAT IF . . . I could have you jamming LIKE A PRO in the same amount of time you've squandered, looking for help . . . that wasn't to be found?
GUESS WHAT? I CAN AND WILL HELP.
I'LL DO ALL THAT AND MORE, . . . ABSOLUTELY FOR FREE!
I CAN'T PROVE THE ABOVE STATEMENTS unless you give me the chance. So, stop searching and day-dreaming!
You have found what you are looking for. IT'S TIME TO ACT!
Simply drop me an E-MAIL and ask for FREE PRIVATE DRUMSET LESSONS!
- Tell me if you are a beginner . . . with/without drums.
- Tell me your musical tastes. I'll tailor the e-mail lessons to your specific tastes and interests.
- If you are not a beginner, tell me. Tell me about the rut you 'may think' you are in. I don't care how long you've been playing. I can help.
Just e-mail me right now, I'll take it from there.
I'll e-mail you back with instructions that will probably change your life and/or your drumming career forever!
I can't prove this, UNLESS YOU ASK!
So . . .It's up to you!
E-MAIL ME RIGHT NOW! at:
drums02@earthlink.net
My replies will blow you away. I've been playing and teaching
longer than most of you have been alive.
I love all this! I'm retired and I do this strictly for fun, now. I often respond to e-mail, within minutes.
At any rate, I check my e-mail several times a day. You'll have a response by days-end . . . and you'll be jamming LIKE A PRO with those
150 million songs, by this time tomorrow, I promise. (If that doesn't happen, then you'll know to keep the day job a while longer!)
- Old? Young? Total Beginner? Ultra Advanced? It doesn't matter!
- No drum set necessary! No sticks necessary. No other sign-ups necessary!
- No catch! No tricks, no games and no gimmicks! That's a promise!
- Ummm . . . Ok . . . There is one catch! I love e-mail. I want more e-mail! It's too dang quiet around here!
Just do it! It's TOTALLY free!

*********
The objective of this site is to offer you the VERY best online drum instruction in the World, at virtually NO COST!
This is a donation web site Once people see the amazing help I can provide, they often
donate, to get all my other courses. But donations are not the purpose for all this. I do all this because I love it, and
I'm somewhat obsessed with helping people find their way in life. It's worth more than gold to me.
Once I've shown you how easy all this is, maybe you'll feel so guilty that you'll hopefully pony-up and donate a little to keep it all
available for next year's people. That's cool! It takes money to do all this. I surely can use the help, but I do not demand it.
Your donations will not go unrewarded here. The really GREAT STUFF follows, . . . after you decide to donate!
OK! That was my pitch for e-mail. I hope you've already e-mailed me by now. But, you should also continue reading
and look around this humungous web site. You can get any of these lessons for free, with a simple e-mail.
If e-mail isn't your thing, and if you do not want personal help, then continue reading. The following text will help you
find your own way, without my help.
*********
STOP! LOOK! LISTEN! WATCH THE VIDS, AND
BEGIN LEARNING, . . . RIGHT NOW!
BEGINNERS should click the following link, and begin learning right now! No, you DO NOT need sticks, pads or equipment of any
sort. You'll learn to play AS IF you were behind a full drumset, and you'll be jamming like a pro in 30 minutes or less!
If you connect with these FREE lessons, you'll know how to play on the very first day, as you finally do sit down behind a real set of drums for
the first time. Just do these lessons, in the recommended order! Then BOOKMARK this site. You'll will want to return, once you see how easy I can make it for you.
BEGINNERS START HERE! Your search is over!
THEN LATER . . .
Check-out all the benefits of permanent membership to this exclusive school of drumming.
This resource has been online since 1994. It was the first online, and it's the BEST. Do not be fooled by more expensive, and less
effective imitators and copy-cats. No other drumming course in the world will compare with the EZ-TO-LEARN techniques you'll discover here.
Be sure to check-out each of the LESSON MENUS on the left.
There are more than 125 lessons in those 4 menus!
You are in for a shock!
This is a complete course in drum set techniques for CURIOUS BEGINNERS through ULTRA ADVANCED
PROFESSIONALS.
All you have to do is find your level and follow the lessons, one-at-a-time. You'll discover how to HAVE THE MOST FUN YOU'VE EVER HAD IN YOUR LIFE!
BEGINNERS! The knowledge you'll gain here could launch you into a drumming career in as little as a few months. But, you'll be wise to FOLLOW MY PLAN! I've devoted years to MAKING EVERY STEP, TOTALLY FUN.
If you feel lost at any point, e-mail me and I'll help for free. I love this stuff! This whole thing is a fun pastime for me. I totally enjoy and HOPE to
meet each one of you via e-mail. So, check-out the LESSON MENUS for a few seconds, then return and finish reading this page.
You will find my personal E-MAIL ADDRESS on the "ABOUT HSID" page. It's on the menu at the top of nearly every
web page in this course.
BEGINNING DRUMMERS SHOULD CLICK THIS LINK
AND FOLLOW THROUGH . . . ONE-LESSON-AT-A-TIME. After that, just study any lesson you may be interested in studying, or e-mail me for special help and tips. I LOVE E-MAIL. It's the reason I do all this.
INTERMEDIATE STUDENTS should use their own judgement. If you know all the
5 basic beats by heart and if you are jamming routinely with all forms of
music already, you decide. Just be certain you are truly aware of the importance of THE BASIC BEATS in all
music styles. If you are aware of all that, then study any lessons, on any menus, that do not seem too
difficult. There's really no special order or lesson plan that needs
to be followed, after the basics have been established. If you study
the things that interest you most, you'll probably have more fun,
and that alone will lead to increased success.
ENJOY THE LESSONS AND REMEMBER THIS ALWAYS: For every 15 minutes of
lesson study, you should devote no less than 1 hour of fun jamming
with recorded music. Jamming is the secret to success! There's
no substitute! Without it, the lesson knowledge is useless! If your
objective is to learn quickly . . . do not skimp on the jam-time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ADVANCED STUDENTS: Look in the left column,
right now . . . and investigate the possibilities!
You may already know what you need to study. Check
out all the lesson menus and study everything that interests you. E-mail me if you are in doubt at all. I've been teaching professionally
for more than 45 years. As I get to know you, I'll be able to direct you immediately to what you need most. Do not be afraid to e-mail
me for special help! I'd love to meet and help you! See, "ABOUT HSID", ON THE TOP MENU FOR MY E-MAIL ADDRESS.
If you are in doubt about where to begin . . . be sure to click on the 'Knowledge
Assessment' tab (top menu) and read it, for additional guidance and help. Or . . . EMAIL ME! Tell me what you can about
your knowledge level and experience level. I'll offer suggested lessons and guidance in the same way I've been doing it for years as
a private teacher. YES! I CAN help you, even if you 'think' you are the baddest of the baddest! If you are REALLY BAD, and do not
like to do E-mail, GO TO MY 'SISTER SITE'. It has been designed with the Intermediate
to ultra advanced students in mind. Though it contains most of the same lessons as this site, it may offer better directions for the
Intermediate, Advanced and Ultra Advanced students.

ADVANCED STUDENTS: Look in the left column,
again. With this, you really will be bad!
