1st Open/Close (push/pull) Single Stroke Roll Video © 2002

The very first Open/Close Single Stroke Roll video. Ed Shaughnessy told me “You’ve developed an historically important form of technique that ranks with the Moeller System!“ This endorsement created an invitation from PAS to present a clinic along with Joe Morello and Jim Chapin at PASIC 2003. After my presentation Joe said “I’m SO glad you did this! Billy Gladstone was messing around with this when I was studying with him, but he never documented think you took it further than he did!“ My SINGLED FOUR single stroke roll synchronization was first published in Percussive Notes Magazine in April 1999. Go to for Skype lessons, and method books by Gordy Knudtson, drummer for The Steve Miller Band.
