Hey guys, last year I bought a Roland drum kit as I planned on learning and basically having a hobby that didn't constantly cost money!

I'm trying to find somewhere to get Drum Tabs. I've found a few sites, but none really have the exact songs I'm looking for. (currently i'm looking for Undisclosed Desires by Muse) and can't find it anywhere

I know there are a few drummers on here, do you guys ever use tabs or do you play by ear?

Cheers, Jay.

 

I never worked out how to read drum tab, I find it much easier to just listen to it. I do use drum music occasionally and find it much easier to work with - although you'll have to pay for that usually.

 

I can read them pretty easily, although the key (hh for hi-hat ect) can be pretty hit and miss.. It took me ages to find out what FS was! It's Flam-Snare, but being new I had no clue what the hell that was!

To be honest, watching some of the Travis Barker vids on youtube have made me more determined to learn! Love his style.

 

been playing for years, tried to learn to read music but found it just slowed me down.
