Rock Band Might Just Teach Real Drum Skills
Video gaming consoles have really changed since we first played Pong, PacMan and all of the other classics. Who thought back years ago that some day soon video games could be used to teach real skills or become so realistic and technologically advanced?
Guitar Hero is one video game that is fun to do, but it has been said by Harmonix Music that if you can play the Rock Band drum set on the 'hard' setting, you should be able to play the drums for real! Question is though are you really playing the drums, or just following the pattern you see on the screen? If you can master the video game drumming, it doesn't mean that in you will be able to sit at a real drum set and be able to play. The real world of drumming requires the ability to read music, which is not taught in the game; fantastic coordination and rhythm. If you can't read sheet music you may never be able to be a professional unless you are musically gifted and have the instincts to know what to play. Bands today don't use electronic drums like were so common in the 1980's . A real drum kit gives you actual control over the sound of the notes, their length, volume and more.
One thing real drums won't need is Guitar Hero cymbal repair cable, because there are no cables that are poorly designed and almost always fail.
Even a basic drum kit is far more complicated than the Guitar Hero or Rock Band drum set. For those wanting to make the switch, I'm sure the mental image of a real drum kit is overwhelming! Ponder for a moment you're sitting behind a huge drum set, knowing that you are responsible for setting the rhythm for your band and they all rely on you. If you're able to play professionally you might be a great drummer, but for a new musician even the Guitar Hero or Rock Band drum set can be overwhelming.
Learning drumming starts with knowing have to keep the beat. If you can keep rhythm, can you play the drums? Not really. Quality drummers can add to songs with their skills as well as just setting the beat for everyone else to follow. You don't always notice the drums, but if you were to delete them out of the song you definitely would notice for sure!
Can GH World Tour games actually teach how to play drums? Doubtful, but it can't hurt to practice. Learn the basics through the Xbox games, practice your counting out the beat, and you will be starting your one way journey to becoming famous! Just don't forget to grab a new Guitar Hero cable before one breaks!

Drum major's death echoes beyond revered band (KSAT)
Knees fly high. Hips swivel. Trombones sway. Bass drums thump. Tubas bellow.
Cymbals crash. The scene -- with its electrifying soundtrack -- is a major
draw at many historically black colleges and universities, where throngs of
students turn out for marching band performances. "The bands are so
entertaining that people attend these games for the halftime show. ... People
sit in their seats at halftime. They leave in the third quarter. It's just
big," said Christy Walker, 36, who runs a website dedicated to black college
marching band culture. For the past week, the message boards on Walker's
website have been buzzing with passionate posts about the situation at Florida
A&M University (FAMU). The school fired the band director and stopped all
performances of its famous "Marching 100" after authorities said they suspect
hazing caused the death of a 26-year-old drum major. As authorities
investigate the student's death, the accusations surrounding the widely
revered and imitated band could have an impact far beyond the Florida
university's campus. "There are a lot of great bands, over 50 or so, but FAMU
is definitely the most well known out there," said Walker, who played clarinet
in the band ...
