How To Play SCV Cheesy Poofs

In this marching drum lesson we learn the classic Santa Clara Vangaurd drumline exercise called Cheesy Poofs. There are a few variations of this that have been written over the years, in this class we learn the 2009 snareline parts!

This seemed impossible to me at the beginning, but after about 2 solid hours of grinding this out I was playing it flawlessly at 114! Great tutorial and a fun piece!

11:11 - “ it’s going to feel like you’re playing faster, because you are “ best part

[Dmitch]

Hey man your breakdowns really help me out, you should break down “electric wheelchair” by scc

[cdawg]

Dude. Idk if you’ll see this but man you save my day whether I’m bored, mad, sad or whatever, your vids give me so much to do and help me feel like im getting better. Thank you so much

[KarlDrumTech]

Great breakdown man! :) I always love seeing other teachers in action!

[emcmadrumline]

I think they’re now ‘poofs’ but the original name of the exercise was ‘Schlitz and giggles’ in the 1996/97 season before going to the South Park name.

Awesome breakdown. I have been wanting to learn, but aged out more than 20 years ago. This is awesome to play to and learn.

[P]

The fact my friend called this simpler than triplet diddle is crazy

[brodouken]

Haven't played drums since high school over a decade ago. Managed to keep up until the two 5's after the 9. Never was any good at them. I'm pretty amazed at how much my hands remember how to do to be honest. These videos are fun to play along with, man.

[benjaminko]

Break down is so premium. Could you do the 08 ditty next???

[Flowereater]

We need a lesson on the back stick variation

[lucasjones]

thank you i was so confused especially at the last part till i saw this 👍

The "poof" is a 3 over 2. The timing is a little more open than if it were the same as a drag.

[NebrasKorneater]

I was told back in the 1990s that they were called "grandmas". I thought the name was fitting, since the accented hand is moving in slow-motion (slow, like an old lady)

[mrryananthony]

Hey brother! I was told those one handed patterns are called "Hermeolas" i think that's the seeming but i could be a bit off

[richie.mason]

Hey man I love how you help us learn these difficult breaks and licks. Could you break down the tenor part to SCV’s 2003 Electric Wheelchair? It would help me out so much

[TikTok_refugees]

They we're first called (Schlitz's) but now they changed it to (poofs) so yeah he got the name right 🎉🎉🎉 l❤ you're videos and as always have a good day and have a good morning🌞🌞🌄🌄

[zimdinkley]

@2:07 there is no name for them, they are three over 2 polyrhythm.

[alannlovestenors]

Its exactly the same for tenors right?
