Ziggy Stardust, David Bowie - Rockschool Grade 6 Drums 2018

From the awesome 2018 Rockschool Drum Syllabus - book is available here: https://amzn.to/3czp4Z9

Recorded as a reference for students learning this tune.

I do my very best with these videos to be totally accurate to the drum parts presented in the grade books, but can’t guarantee being 100% across the board on all tunes. Any drum fill/“fill-in”/solo sections I generally just make up on the spot - please don’t copy mine, make your own (that’s the point!)

Cheers! Have fun and please let me know if any questions,

Mike :)

Mike Barnes Drums Amazon Shop


I now have an Amazon store featuring all the gear, books etc you see here in these videos, and that I use myself on gigs/in the studio and recommend. It doesn’t cost any more to buy from this store than it does from regular Amazon, but you’d be supporting this channel by doing so, which would be very much appreciated!:
