Every drummer has their own vocabulary and way of expressing it on the drums - that's why solos are so personal, and why there's no one right way to go about playing them. You wouldn't tell an author how to write a book, right?
However, Mark Kelso has some tips you can use to pull out ideas that you already have in your toolbox. Here are five things to keep in mind when you're soloing (that you didn't know you already know):
00:00 - Introduction
01:02 - Dynamics
05:03 - Maximizing One Idea
08:06 - Melody
11:29 - Switch Up The Tempo
14:09 - Design by Subtraction

Great lesson, it's about time somebody shows these Young Bucks that drumming is more than crash boom bang, there's more to playing drums then Hard Rock Style like he said, learn your Dynamics on your drums, learn Melody then you'll have it all he's been playing for 40 years he said, I've been playing for 60 years since I was 8 years old, you do the math, he's just trying to teach you your craft and understand it much better he's a very good instructor!

Bad or ordinary solo's are created on a concise level trying to impress good solo's are created from the subconscious allowing dynamics and creativity to happen naturally without thinking
