Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursda Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays. Today's groove, like last week's groove, celebrates the drumming of Mr #@ChesterThompson and his playing on the @genesis_band record "Seconds Out". The song this week is "I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)". I'm only focusing on the opening of the tune. Chester's drum groove starts the song and the groove is so funky and phat! It is at a slow tempo and keeping the groove in the pocket at that tempo can be difficult. What goes on between the hands and feet is not that hard, it is more "how" you play the parts. Especially the hi-hat part. Where the hats open and close, along with accents here and there are really the special sauce of this groove. It is a lot of fun to play and a great way to practice funky back beats at a slower tempo. I encourage you to listen to the whole song if you never have. There are some real special moments throughout and the groove never stops. Come on back next week for Groove # 40. Cheers everyone! . . . #GroovyThrusdays #Groove #NickDvirgilio #ChesterThompson #Genesis #SecondsOut #IKnowWhatILike #MakeItHappen #Drums #BackBeat
Greetings everyone! It's still Thursday here in th Greetings everyone! It's still Thursday here in the States...HA! I've been slammed but I still wanted to get something out to you all and keep this train moving. This groove celebrates the awesome drumming of Chester Thompson. The song is "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" from the Genesis record "Seconds Out". Arguably the greatest live record ever! The particular part of the song I am playing the groove from is the last verse. There is the mellow breakdown section in the middle of the tune, then they build back up into the last verse of the song and it is so powerful! Chester's drumming is on fire. His drumming is great on the whole record for sure, but the energy in this part of "The Lamb" is off the charts. Speaking of charts, I have not had the time to make a chart for this one today but I will make one and post in the description just as soon as I can. Thanks so much everyone and make sure to come back next week for Groove 39. I will be back to normal self then. Cheers! #GroovyThursdays #Groove #NDV #NickDvirgilio #Genesis #SecondsOut #ChesterThompson #Drums #MakeItHappen
Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursda Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays. This weeks groove comes from the @BigBigTrain record "Common Ground". The song is "Apollo". This groove is a lot of fun to play and will give your hi-hat foot a work out. There is no talking portion of this weeks video because I have been traveling with Big Big Train so let me describe what is going on. The groove is in 5/4 and the basic pattern is not that hard. It is also only 1 bar long and repeated. The basic kick drum and snare accents are the foundation. I add some ghost notes and hits in between as I play the pattern but those are improvisations and not always consistent. It actually is a good practice tool to see where you can place those extra notes and not trip yourself up. The rest is about playing 8th notes on your ride cymbals and 8th notes on your hi-hat foot. At 150bpm those 8th notes on your foot are pretty fast and a good work out keeping them consistent. Another thing to think about is trying hard not to flam between your ride and hi-hat foot. They should be hitting together. Every so often I throw in a triple stroke on my ride cymbal. It is a nice independence tool keeping the foot and ride going while trying to add another note here and there. I would suggest trying to get the basic pattern down, play it solidly with those snare drum hits nice and loud, and then when you start to feel comfortable, put in some ghost notes and extras in your ride pattern. Last thing to remember is to stay relaxed with your left foot. Don't get tense and slow down if you have to. Thanks so much for taking the time to watch this video and come on back next week for Groove # 38. Cheers! #GroovyThursdays #NickDVirgilio #BigBigTrain #CommonGround #Apollo #Drums #Groove #MakeItHappen #ProgRock
I recently played a few shows with @BigBigTrain an I recently played a few shows with @BigBigTrain and this video shows the gear I used. I had the best of intentions of posting this video on the first day of rehearsals but everything else got in the way and it took me a little longer to get it ready for you to see. I am blessed with the gear I had to use for the #BBT shows. Everything performed spectacularly well. Thank you to: @britishdrumco @sabiancymbals @DPAmicrophones @evansdrumheads @promarkdrumsticks @porteranddavies @RME @ableton @avid for making such great gear! . . #NDV #NickDVirgilio #Drums #Drummer #ProgRock #ProgressiveRock #BigBigTrain
Greetings from the UK everyone! I just finished 3 Greetings from the UK everyone! I just finished 3 blinding shows with @BigBigTrain and this weeks groove is inspired by my band. Groove #36 is at the 12:24 minute mark into the song "Atlantic Cable" from the #BigBigTrain record "Common Ground". It is an instrumental section that brings me back to my early days as a big fan of fusion jazz with a little bit of rock n roll for good measure. The link to the PDF of the whole section is below. Feel free to check it out and follow along. I hope it will help you follow what's happening in the section. I know links are not clickable here so I shortened it. https://buff.ly/3AYFKX8 Come on back next week for Groove 37.

Thank you Evans Drumheads and to all at D’Addari Thank you Evans Drumheads and to all at D’Addario! My drums for this short but mighty Big Big Train tour have sounded amazing. Such great drum products! I am very grateful I’ve been able to use them for these shows. The final show is tonight. #evansdrumheads #bigbigtrain #drums
Greetings everyone! This week’s groove - numbe Greetings everyone! This week’s groove - number 35 - is a great one. “The Ocean” from the @LedZeppelin record “Houses Of the Holy”. John Bonham’s drumming is so classic and so rock n’ roll. This groove is relatively simple. It’s the pocket and what happens on the last bar of the phrase that is quintessential John Bonham. Rather than fill up that last odd bar with accents or a fill, John leaves space for the rest of the guitar riff and it is so cool! He is a great study. Enjoy and come on back next week for Groove 36 Cheers! #GroovyThursdays #Groove #NickDVirgilio #NDV #JohnBonham #LedZeppelin #HousesOfTheHoly #MakeItHappen #Drums
Hello everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursday Hello everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! This weeks groove is going to give you a workout. It is rockin’ and super energetic. The song is "Drunkship of Lanterns" from @TheMarsVolta record "Deloused in the Comatorium". The drummer on this record is @mister_theodore and he's a monster! The section of the song I got the groove from starts at 4:20 minutes into the song. If you listen to the whole track you'll notice this groove earlier, but at this point in the song the groove gets extended and it felt like the right place to grab it from. This groove is made for hitting your drums hard. Giving it all you got. Let your spouse, family, friends and neighbors know, that if it's loud it's because Nick said you gotta go for it! No holding back! YES!!! The Mars Volta fell off my radar for a while but I am glad I have had this rediscovery. Have fun with this one and come on back next week for Groove # 35. Cheers! #NickDVirgilio #GroovyThursdays #Groove #TheMarsVolta #JonTheodor #MakeItHappen #Rock #Drumming

Hello everyone! The good folks at @sabiancymbals a Hello everyone! The good folks at @sabiancymbals agreed to let me play their incredible instruments on the upcoming @BigBigTrain Tour and more. They sent me the cymbals and in this video I unbox them, talk about why I chose them, put them on my drums, play them, and perform a section of the #BigBigTrain song "Apollo" with them. #Sabian makes a fantastic product and I thankful and honored to have them on my kit. They are so musical and I have a wide variety of lines in the set up. AA, AAX, HH, HHX, and XSR. These cymbals inspire and if you like cymbals as much as I do then check them out. They are made with love, passion, and music. A trifecta!!! . . . #Drummer #Drums #Cymbals #SabianCymbals #DrumKit #ProgRock #ProgressiveRock #Apollo #NDV #NickDVirgilio
Greeting everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thurs Greeting everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! This week we get back to some basics and play a groove that will work on your time, feel, concentration, and bring some nuance into your playing. The song is "Break It Down Again" from the @TearsForFearsMusic record "Elemental". It is a lively groove that if played with conviction and energy will keep the people dancing. Even if you are into much heavier music and more complex drumming this groove is a great one to practice. We all need to keep the fundamentals solid. They are the things that make playing the crazier drumming we all like better. So dive into this one and see if you can make it through the whole song with the same energy. There is a marching bit that opens the song and it is also right before the outro. That changes things up just enough. You can do it! Come on back next week for Groove # 34 Cheers! #NickDVirgilio #GroovyThursdays #Groove #TearsForFears #BreakItDownAgain #drums #MakeItHappen
We continue our uphill battle against adversity, b We continue our uphill battle against adversity, but worry not, we will play for you all sooner than later. Details below "Progressive-rockers @BigBigTrain have announced they will not be appearing at the rescheduled HRH Prog XIII. Following the postponement and rescheduling of the event from Leeds this September to Sheffield in April 2023, the band have also been forced to cancel some live dates. "Following HRH’s announcement on Wednesday about their postponement of the September 2022 festival, please note that Big Big Train will not be appearing at the re-scheduled HRH event in April 2023. Please hold on to your tickets for now while we discuss the next steps with the festival." "Due to the loss of the HRH Leeds festival, combined with increased tour related expenses, the scheduled shows in Germany, Switzerland and France are now financially nonviable this year. To continue after the festival cancellation would have resulted in financial losses that would have seriously threatened the band’s existence." "We are extremely sorry for the significant disappointment and inconvenience that this news causes. The German, Swiss and French dates will be rescheduled to 2023. We encourage ticket holders for these shows to retain their tickets and we will provide more news as soon as we can." "Our upcoming concerts at Aylesbury Friars and The Boerderij in Zoetermeer will proceed as planned, as well as the ‘family and friends’ warm up show near Southampton. Tickets are still available. Come and have a great night a prog rock with us and thank you for your unconditional support!" . . #BBT #ProgRock #ProgressiveRock
Greetings everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thur Greetings everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! This weeks groove is high energy and rocking. The song "Stone Cold Crazy" from the band @officialqueenmusic, off of their record "Sheer Heart Attack". I love @rogertaylorofficial's drumming. I think he is one of the great rock n roll drummers of all time. His drumming is powerful, groovy, and phat sounding. His parts can be difficult or incredibly simple but they always fit the song. In the early days of Queen the band was a bit heavier than what they became later on. All of it is great in my opinion but they had a real edge to the music at the beginning. The groove in "Stone Cold Crazy" definitely has that edge along with some quirky things that make it really fun to play. So dive in and get your rock n' roll on! Come on back next week for Groove 33. Cheers! #GroovyThursdays #Groove #NDV #NickDVirgilio #Queen #RogerTaylor #SheerHeartAttack #RocknRoll #MakeItHappen #Drums
Greeting everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thurs Greeting everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! We are at groove #31 with the song "Harridan" from the recently released @PorcupineTreeOfficial record "Closure/Continuation" and the drumming of the masterful @GavinHarrisonPage. I am a big fan of Gavin's drumming. He makes a simple 5/4 groove like the one in this song sound so powerful, funky, and most definitely musical. His drumming is a great study for anyone wanting to play more technical music in a groovy way. He's got some great educational material out there along with other great videos of him teaching the way he does things. There's lots of stuff to dive into. I really like the new Porcupine Tree record and the groove from this song is just one of many great grooves throughout. Go grab a copy if you have not done so yet. You will be glad you did. Have fun with this one and come on back next week for groove #32. Cheers! Nick #GroovyThursdays #Groove #GavinHarrison #PorcupineTree #ClosureContinuation #OddTimeSignatures #SonorDrums #MakeItHappen

@BigBigTrain have released the trailer for our upc @BigBigTrain have released the trailer for our upcoming “Summer Shall Not Fade – Live At Loreley” live release, which will be out on Blu-ray and double CD on October 14 via English Electric Recordings and captures their performance at @NightOfTheProg in Loreley, Germany on July 13, 2018. Check out the link in my bio for pre-orders! @gmspeedwell says “Our show at Loreley was a real coming-of-age experience for Big Big Train as a live band. The stars aligned perfectly for us. It was a truly magical night with the band performing brilliantly and a wonderfully welcoming audience as they and we enjoyed the glorious outdoor setting.” Our 13-song set for that night included material from “The Underfall Yard” and “English Electric,” as well as more recent albums “Folklore” and “Grimspound”. Guitarist, and keyboard player @gungfly82 adds: “David was an absolute star, his vocal performance and the way he commanded the stage were both extraordinary. Loreley is an amazing record of our precious time together with him. The show is one of the highlights of my life.”

Also REMEMBER we will tour the UK and Europe this September, PLUS we will hold an informal warm-up show at Eastleigh's Thornden Hall, near Southampton, on September 1 with @DimGrayMusic supporting. Tickets for this intimate fan date are on sale now (again, link in bio) and and strictly limited to four per person . . #BBT #BigBigTrain #SummerShallNotFade #DavidLongdon #ProgRock #ProgressiveRock #NDV #NickDVirgilio #LiveAtLoreley

Hello everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursday Hello everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! This weeks groove was suggested by a number of you out there and it is a fantastic groove to play. The song is "Dave's Gone Skiing" by the band @TotoThemselves, from their record "Tambu." The drummer on the recording is none other than the brilliant @SimonPhillipsOfficial. I love the way Simon plays drums. so this was a great education for me as I did not know this song until you all suggested it so THANK YOU! I used an app called Anytune Pro to help me slow done the groove and figure things out. It is fantastic and well worth any money spent. I changed up the view this time to give you a shoot of the foot pedals. There is a wire in the shot and I apologize for that. I didn't realize it was there until I was done shooting. I figured you would still like to see that shot and how the feet play into this groove even with the wire showing. It's not that bad but I know what to do next time, and that is to go wireless for my headphone feed. I'm making a Sweetwater purchase today! Have fun with this one y'all. It is technical but very groovy and will help you with not only playing in an odd time signature but will also help you feel upbeats and anticipations better. I had a great time diving into this groove. Come on back next week for Groove # 31. Cheers! #GroovyThursdays #NickDvirgilio #NDV #Groove #SimonPhillips #Toto #OddTimeSignatures #MakeItHappen
Hello everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursday Hello everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! Today we are at Groove # 29 and it is a special one. The song is from The Jacksons record "Destiny" called "Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground)". A very hip groove played originally by the amazing drummer Ed Greene. What a fantastic player Ed is. He's been on a ton of records with some of the biggest artists ever. If you want to be a session drummer then Ed is a must study. If you don't know of him just search his name and look at how many huge records he's played on. It is very impressive but no surprise. The man knows how to lay it down! The groove for this song is more difficult than it may seem because it is 3 drum parts layered on top of each-other in the song. You, as one person, have to try and play what 3 people played. I mean what 3 Ed Greene's played. It makes for a fun coordination exercise while playing in the pocket. I dig grooves like this one a lot and I hope you do too. See you next week for Groove # 30. Cheers!!! #GroovyThursdays #NDV #NickDvirgilio #EdGreene #TheJacksons #Destiny #Coordination #Groove #Pocket #MakeItHappen
Hello everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursday Hello everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! This week we travel back to the 1990's with a groove from my old band Spock's Beard. The song is "Crack the Big Sky" from our record "Day For Night". I play the first two sections of the song so you get two grooves for the price of one this week. The first section is really short and I wanted to make sure you get something substantial to work on. There is lots of fun syncopation happening in both sections and bit of tricky independence in the snare drum part. They are fun, driving, and quirky grooves that I think you'll have fun with. See next week for Groove #29. Cheers! #NickDvirgilio #NDV #GroovyThursdays #SpocksBeard #Groove #DayForNight #MakeItHappen #Drums
Hello everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays. Hello everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays. This week is groove 27 and it is a fun one from the band @TheEnglishBeat and the song is "Twist & Crawl". I am a big fan of Ska music. Ever since I was a kid I have been into these energetic beats. I find that there is a lot that crosses over into rock, prog rock, pop, funk, and fusion drumming. Plus it adds a bit more to my drumming vocabulary which I am always trying to expand. Grooves like this are also great practice tools for working on getting in and out of drums fills without rushing or dragging. The fills don't have to be elaborate either. They can be ultra simple and deliberate. As long as you get back to your groove and the pocket is still deep. Being a drummer is so cool because we have so many styles we can pull from to create our own sound. Learning fun grooves like this one will help fill your drumming tool box with ideas. Being able to pull from a huge array of ideas is fantastic no matter what instrument you play, but especially good for drummers. Dive into the nuance of it all and I think you will have a great time practicing this groove and others like it. See you next week for groove 28. Cheers! #GroovyThursdays #Groove #NickDvirgilio #NDV #Ska #theenglishbeat
We are half way through the year and Groove 26 is We are half way through the year and Groove 26 is a cool one. The song is "Surfing Down the Avalanche" from the #@SpocksBeard record "Octane". The band rocked pretty hard on this track and I was able to create a drum part that was heavy, challenging, and in your face. At least that is how it feels to me. The groove comes from the 2nd verse of the song that starts at 0:48 seconds. It has a fun linear quality to it while hitting the drums hard, and it is in 5/4, which is one of my favorite odd time signatures to play in. I encourage you to dive into this groove and film yourself playing it. Post it up so we can see you rock this beat. I think you'll dig it. Thanks so much for hanging with me for 26 Grooves videos so far. There is 26 more to starting next week with Groove 27. I hope to see you right back here.

Hello everyone and welcome back to GroovyThursdays Hello everyone and welcome back to GroovyThursdays! This weeks groove comes from the closing section of the @LedZeppelin song "Stairway To Heaven" and the drummer on the song - as everyone knows - is the legendary John Bonham. I play the groove 2 different ways in the demonstration. The first way I am calling the "simpler way" and it is most likely close to the way John Bonham played the groove. The second way I play the groove add some fun ghosting in your snare hand. The reason I've done this is because when you listen back to the song there is definitely something else rhythmically going on in that section. It sort of sounds like ghost notes on the snare but it could also be percussion that was mixed in or even a "delay" effect added to the drums for that section of the song. Whatever it is, it is awesome and really fun to play. It's also a cool technical challenge because where the ghost notes and accents fall are not the typical way you would play them. I go through all of that in detail in the video. Above and beyond all that, this groove is really fun to play as is so much of John Bonham's grooves. He is definitely one of the all time great drummers ever, and for many he is number 1 in that list. I hope you enjoy today's groove and make sure to join me next week for Groove # 26. Cheers! . . #GroovyThursdays #NickDvirgilio #Groove #LedZeppelin #JohnBonham #StairwayToHeaven #MakeItHappen #NDV #Drums
Myself, along with my wife @tiffanydvirgilio69, @s Myself, along with my wife @tiffanydvirgilio69, @sophiadvirgilio, and soon to be son-in-law @adam_grizzlybear had a great time seeing me ole mates in Tears For Fears tear the roof off of the Ruoff Music Center last Friday night. The band sounded great and @jameswollam on his new @anfdrumco kit just slayed! The drum sound was so good and fit the TFF songs perfectly. It is also nice to get the chance to catch up with Roland, Curt, Charlton, and Doug. We played a lot of gigs together back in the day. I’m very happy to see them all making great music together again. Thank you to the whole TFF team!
Hello everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursday Hello everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! We are at Groove # 24. The song is "Aqualung" from the @JethroTull_ record of the same name, and the original drummer in the song is Clive Bunker. This is a simple but super effective groove. It's got power, consistency, and vibe for days. It's a classic groove that goes perfectly with that classic song. If you are new to Jethro Tull's music I encourage you to go check it all out.

Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! Groove # 23 is Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! Groove # 23 is from the @BigBigTrain song "Atlantic Cable" from our record "Common Ground". This fun groove is inspired by the amazing drumming of @simonphillipsofficial. Greg Spawton wrote this killer track. When he sent me the demo and this first section of the song came on I could hear something in the style of Simon's playing right away. I have learned a lot from Simon's playing over the years. There is some fun independence going on in this groove, ghost notes in the snare part, and orchestration on the toms around the kit. It's also uptempo and energetic. I look forward to playing this song live one day. Have fun with it and if you can, film yourself playing this groove and post it. I'd love to see and hear what you do with it. See you next week for groove 24. Cheers! #GroovyThursdays #Groove #NDV #NickDvirgilio #BigBigTrian #CommonGround #GregSpawton #Prog #ProgressiveRock #SimonPhillips #DW
