Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursda Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays. This week is a bit different. I was not able to make the usual "lesson" style video. What do they call it? Oh yeah, life getting in the way. Things are very busy right now but I surely did not want to leave you with nothing for your Thursday viewing so I did a play-through instead. It is actually faster to do than the full lesson video. Especially if I know the song. Since I just finished my tour with @SteveHackettOfficial last month I figured I would take a stab at the formidable "Apocalypse in 9/8". This is the version from "Seconds Out". It is a crazy thing to play on the drums but if you want to practice on your concentration and listening while you play then this is track for that. You basically need to keep the main groove/pulse in your head going while you play the groove and follow along to the keyboard solo which is not playing in 9/8. It's nuts! But somehow it works and it is awesome! I would like to give a shout out to the app @moises.ai. It is an app that will take a song and break it into individual tracks. I was able to separate out the drums, bass, vocals, guitars, and keys. You can choose how many parts you would like. When you break apart a song into many parts like I did it gets a bit "chorus-y" but it is still amazing technology. Thanks so much everyone. If you have any suggestions for more play-through videos please let me know. I may have to do a few more of these this year. Cheers! . . . #GroovyThursdays #NickDVirgilio #NDV #Genesis #SecondsOut #PlayThrough #Drums #MakeItHappen #Drummer
@BigBigTrain have announced today the release of t @BigBigTrain have announced today the release of their upcoming EP entitled "Ingenious Devices". It features new versions of a trilogy of revered Big Big Train epic tracks – "East Coast Racer", "Brooklands" and "Voyager." These tracks prominently feature an elite 17 piece string section recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London. Apart from the late David Longdon’s lead vocals, which have been compiled from the original album sessions, "East Coast Racer" is a completely new studio version recorded by the line-up of the band as it was in 2019. "Brooklands" features newly recorded drums, bass and bass pedals, while "Voyager" includes additional guitar and violin. All three songs have been re-mixed for this release. Pre-order "Ingenious Devices" from the link in my bio! Additionally "Ingenious Devices" includes a previously unreleased orchestral piece called "The Book of Ingenious Devices," which links "East Coast Racer" and "Brooklands", as well as a live version of "Atlantic Cable," which was recorded on the band’s tour in September 2022. . . . #BBT #BigBigTrain #ProgRock #ProgressiveRock #IngeniousDevices #PreOrder #NDV #NickDVirgilio
Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursda Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! The internet was not playing nice yesterday and I couldn't get this video uploaded so you are getting your Groovy Thursday fix on Friday this week. Cheers! This weeks grooves come from the amazing Fred White. Long time drummer for the band @earthwindandfire. Fred played on all the classic records and was the beat behind their biggest hits. I love funk, R&B, and soul music. Fred had such a great pocket and gave wonderful energy to all of those classic songs. It is a great study. The backbeat, the sound of his drums, and the way he locked in with his brother Verdine on bass was so good! Unfortunately Fred passed away just this year. It is sad that he left at his young age. He gave us a wonderful gift that most definitely lives on. So put on your headphones, get behind your kit, and groove with some Earth Wind and Fire. It is so much fun! Cheers! #GroovyThursdays #NDV #NickDvirgilio #FredWhiteDrums #EarthWindAndFire #Groove #Funk #SoulMusic #MakeItHappen
Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursda Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays. This weeks offering are “5 Stupendous Neil Peart grooves”. Neil was such an iconic drummer. His gift to the world of drums and rock-n-roll in general cannot be understated. He was HUGE and deservedly so. I picked these 5 grooves specifically to help work on the coordination between your kick drum and hi-hat. Neil was great at doing very clean stabs on the hi-hat and to get them really clean and powerful you need to practice. Listen to sound of Neil's hi-hat on these songs and others. It is precise and beautiful. These are the little things that can bring your drumming to another level. There is so much to learn from Neil's playing. He had great passion for the instrument and we can definitely all learn from that. Cheers! . . . #NickDVirgilio #GroovyThursdays #NeilPeart #Rush #HiHat #Practice #Drums #Passion #DrumsForLife #MakeItHappen @Rush #ProgRock
Hello everyone! Yes, I know I am late, but here is Hello everyone! Yes, I know I am late, but here is my final tour vlog from my time on tour with @SteveHackettOfficial. Join me as I take you through some fun moments from the last show of the tour at the @PatchogueTheater for the Performing Arts. Not only was it me last show, it was the band's final show of the whole year of touring. They played something like 160 shows! The energy on stage and in the room was fantastic. What an amazing experience it was to be on that stage with Steve and the boys. Thank you Steve, Jo, the band, the crew, and to @CraigBlundellDrums! . . . #NickDVirgilio #SteveHackett #OnTour #Amazing #Fantastic #Wonderful #ProgMusic #Drums #Drumming
Happy New Year and welcome back to Groovy Thursday Happy New Year and welcome back to Groovy Thursdays and the first grooves of 2023! We are starting the year out right with some fun rock-n-roll drumming. Three great grooves from the @MrBigMusic drummer "Pat Torpey". Pat was a fantastic player. He left us to early after battling Parkinson's disease but left us a great gift. The gift of his drumming lives on with all of us and there is a lot to learn from. Pat could be very technical when he needed to be. But deep down he just rocked and rocked hard! There was a ton of energy in his playing and I love that kind of thing. I picked three grooves to check out. The first is from the song "Take Cover". A nice linear pattern that also blends in a solid back beat. It is definitely good for working on coordination and pocket. The second groove is from the song "Daddy, Brother, Lover, Little Boy". A killer rock-n-roll groove. If you want to learn how to hit the snare drum right in a rock setting then this is the tune to learn from. The third groove comes from the song "Colorado Bulldog". A galloping double bass groove that will definitely work on your stamina. Sit down at your kit, take a deep breath, and get your rock on to start 2023! . . . #GroovyThursdays #NickDVirgilio #MrBig #PatTorpey #Groove #Drums #RockDrumming #MakeItHappen
I thought it would be cool to do a recap of every I thought it would be cool to do a recap of every Groovy Thursday groove put out this year. All 52 grooves played back to back! It is interesting to hear how things progressed from Groove 1 all the way to Groove 52. Such as, how my drums sound changed throughout the year and all of the different kinds of grooves I shared with you all. It was a fun, but sometime arduous task getting the videos to you every week. But the groove lived on week after week and we made it through the whole year! I am truly thankful for all of you that joined me every week. Happy New Year! . . . #GroovyThursdays #NickDVirgilio #NDV #Grooves #Drummer #Drums #HappyNewYear #2022Recap
We've made it to the end of 2022 and all the way t We've made it to the end of 2022 and all the way to Groove # 52. Since I started out this series with an original groove I've decided to end the year with an original. It is a funky linear 4 bar phrase that can help with coordination around the kit, dexterity, time, and pocket. It also utilizes some other parts of your drum kit that can help with getting used to hearing different sounds in your grooves. I encourage you to change up the fills and make them you own. Be creative and get inspired! Thank you so much for hanging with me this year. I have enjoyed bringing these grooves to you with the goal of inspiring you to play more drums. Happy New Year! #GroovyThursdays #Groove #NickDVirgilio #LinearDrumming #Funky #Drums #MakeItHappen #NDV
Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursda Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! This weeks groove is a real challenge but so much fun to try and learn from. As much as I love simple grooves, sometimes a tough and technical one just hits the spot. The song is "New Maps" from the @tigranhamasyan record "The Call Within". The amazing drumming of @ahnatek is on full display. He is a monster player. He is able to navigate through all of the intricate rhythms that Tigran throws at him with a style and pocket that is really unique! There is so much to learn from Arthur's playing and Tigran's music. I encourage you to dive into both. Cheers! #GroovyThursdays #Groove #TigranHamasyan #ArthurHnatek #NewMaps #TheCallWithin #Drums #MakeItHappen

Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! This weeks groov Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! This weeks groove is another classic Bill Bruford jam. "Frame By Frame" from the @KingCrimsonOfficial record "Discipline". It's a fairly simple 2 bar phrase, but it's the nuance and the accents that make this groove challenging. Bruford did it so well and we can definitely all learn from his great playing. His fills in this songs are killer too! Have fun and Happy Holidays! . . . #GroovyThursdays #BillBruford #KingCrimson #FrameByFrame #Groove #Nuance #Drums #MakeItHappen #NDV #NickDVirgilio

Hello everyone! A late posting for this weeks Groo Hello everyone! A late posting for this weeks Groovy Thursdays but I’ll cut myself some slack because I’m on the road with Steve Hackett. Bat Country from the band @avengedsevenfold is a serious rocker that is a lot of fun to play and totally worth the time to learn. I’m out on the road playing old school Prog with Steve Hackett but felt the need to rock 🤘 Cheers! Nick #NickDvirgilio #AvengedSevenfold #GroovyThursdays #Drums #BatCountry #MakeItHappen
Some fun photos of the @stevehackettofficial tour Some fun photos of the @stevehackettofficial tour up in Canada. Tonight starts the short run in the states. I’m looking forward to the next 4 shows. New Brunswick tonight!!!
Greetings everyone! This is tour vlog Day 7 from Greetings everyone! This is tour vlog Day 7 from our 3rd show in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. I had some downtime before soundcheck started and I go through @craigblundelldrums fantastic drum kit in a little more detail. Showing what all drums, cymbals, heads, mics, electronics, and even my cheat sheets are. Then I put in a little snippet of video from soundcheck and some video from the show that was shot from my wife Tiffany's Iphone. The video quality from the gig is what it is. Shot from the audience and all of that. But what is cool is that the Oakville Center for the Performing Arts is a nice intimate venue. The lighting designer Chris Curran is fantastic. He made that stage look amazing! In the video are little bits of a couple of songs and most of my drum solo. I don't get the chance to do drum solos very often so it a big challenge for me. It is also a big challenge because the drum solo comes towards the very end of the gig! It's crazy but I am loving it. Also, this band is really awesome! If you've seen @stevehackettofficial and the boys play before then you already know that. In the video is a little section from Cinema Show ( sorry, I only had what me lovey wife gave me to work with ) and check out @jonasreingold on the bass. The man kicks some serious ass! Everyone in the band does and I've said it before and I'll say it again, I am blessed to have this opportunity. Going through the drums goes from the beginning of the video until 5:14 and the music parts from 5:15 to the end. This evening (Dec 4, 2022) is our final show in Canada. Playing at the Grand Theater Du Quebec then it is down to the states for the rest of the run. Cheers!

This week's groove is a quick one and I apologize This week's groove is a quick one and I apologize for not being able to give the talking portion this week. I'm on the road with @stevehackettofficial and frankly I don't have the time to make that happen. But in keeping with #SteveHackett and @genesis_band, this weeks groove comes from their record "A Trick Of The Tail" and the song is "Robbery Assault and Battery". Specifically the middle keyboard solo section. This very fun and deceptively simple groove is in 13/8. In my transcription I wrote out a simple version and an advanced version. In the simple one, just play straight 8th notes on your hi-hat and no ghost notes or extras on your snare. Keep it pretty straight. The advanced version is more like I play it on the video. It has some extra sauce added in the hi-hat and snare. Those parts, even though I wrote them out, can be a bit free and put wherever you feel them. Now I am off to the venue for gig #3 of my time with the master Hackett. I will be playing this exact song this evening! Cheers! . . . #NickDVirgilio #GroovyThursdays #Genesis #RobberyAssaultAndBattery #Drums #Groove #MakeItHappen
Greetings everyone! Vlog Day 4 shows you a little Greetings everyone! Vlog Day 4 shows you a little bit of the venue for the first show with Steve Hackett (Salle Wilfrid Pellitier in Montreal, Canada) and a bit of a song, side view, shot with my GoPro. I think you will be able to tell that the crowd was into it and having a good time. It was a really nice way to have my first show. I will tell you and this is a fairly intense gig from the drum chair. Not only are we playing a nice sample of Steve's solo material, we then play all of the classic "Seconds Out". What a blast! But by the time we got to the end of the show I was wrecked. In a great way of course...ha! The musicians in this band are incredible and fun to be on stage with. Nad channels the spirt of Phil and Peter while giving the vocals his own style. It all just works and I am very happy to have this chance to play these songs. There is no Vlog Day 3 because we were deep in rehearsals and there was no time to shoot video. If you want to skip right to the song sample go to 1:54 of my little video. OK, onto the first of 3 shows in Oakville, Ontario. WHOO HOOO!!! #NickDvirgilio #SteveHackett #SecondsOut+More #TheMusicalBox
Greetings everyone! Today was the first day of reh Greetings everyone! Today was the first day of rehearsal for the little mini tour I am playing on with @stevehackettofficial and band. It was a great day and we played a lot of music. There were a few rough patches here and there but that is to be expected with a new drummer in the band and the intensity of the music we are playing. We did get through all of the songs and will be polishing up those bits tomorrow. What an amazing group of musicians I am playing with! Wow! To be playing these classic tunes is a real treat. We started with some of Steve's solo songs and then on into Seconds Out. I first heard that record when I was about 8 or 9 years old and played along to it for years. To be playing those tunes with the guy on the record ( that would be Steve of course ) is so very cool! This is not an easy drumming gig. There are some parts that are pretty straight ahead but you have to play those parts with great attitude and then try to keep a clear head for the parts that are difficult and do your best to let it all flow. Today was the first time in my life I ever performed Apocalypse in 9/8. Yep, that is one of the "difficult" parts :) I don't think it is a walk in the park for any of the musicians but they sure make it sound like it is. So fluid and on the money. The crew are top notch as well. All super nice guys and very professional. I can't wait for the gigs to start. I got a bunch of questions about what drums I will be playing on for these shows and this little video shows you what I will be using. I will get into more detail in another video but since this was day one I didn't have that much time to shoot video. Also the room we are rehearsing in is very dark so I had to brighten up the video a bit. But you can see the drums and there is also a little snippet of a song as well. Thank you Craig, Steve, band and crew!!!

Greetings everyone and Happy Thanksgiving! This we Greetings everyone and Happy Thanksgiving! This weeks groove is one of the greatest of all time. "50 Ways To Leave Your Lover" from the Paul Simon record "Still Crazy After All These Years". @dr.stevegadd's drumming is incredible and he gave us such a gift with this groove. We can try and play it but only he has that sound and nuance. It is a great study and a groove that will help your playing in so many ways. Come on back next week for Groove 48.

Groovy Thursday #46 brings you a groove from the g Groovy Thursday #46 brings you a groove from the great band @snarkypuppy. The song is "Lingus" from their 2014 record "We Like It Here". The amazing drumming of @larnelllewismusic grabbed me the first time I heard this band. It is all very inspiring to hear. I used a section from the song starting at 1:56. The pattern that makes up the main groove is fairly simple but it is attitude behind it that makes the pocket very deep. Put on the tune and focus in on the bass player Michael League and how his part fits with the drums. it is SO COOL! No talking portion this week. Apologies for that. But the groove marches on! Dive into this groove and all of Larnell's playing. He a fantastic player. There is a lot to learn from there. Come on back next week for groove 47. Cheers! #groovythursdays #nickdvirgilio #snarkypuppy #larnelllewismusic #drums #drumming #drumsarecool
Some great pics and memories from the @dwdrums 50t Some great pics and memories from the @dwdrums 50th anniversary celebration. It is always so much fun to go see the drums being made and the 50 anniversary kit is just incredible! Adding to that was treat of seeing @chadsmithofficial @chadwackermanofficial and @thomaslangdrum perform. So very cool! 🤘#dwdrums
This weeks groove heads back to 1971 and a classic This weeks groove heads back to 1971 and a classic @BillBrufords jam. The song is "Heart Of The Sunrise" from the @YesOfficial record "Fragile". This groove is relatively simple but needs to have attitude to come out right. It is rudiment based so you can easily practice the patterns on a practice pad, your legs, on your car steering wheel (NOT WHILE DRIVING PLEASE! 🤣), or just on your snare. Playing along to the record is probably the best way to practice this groove so you can hear and feel the other instruments . . . #GroovyThursdays #Groove #NDV #NickDvirgilio #BillBruford #Yes #Fragile #HeartOfTheSusrise #Drums #MakeItHappen

Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursda Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays. Well technically it is still Thursday. I've been traveling and I'm in L.A. and it is 11:11pm :) This weeks groove is a special one that has been requested a number of times. The song is "Judas Unrepentant" from the Big Big Train record "English Electric Full Power". There's a lot going on in this groove that I made up as I recorded it. It is a bit harder to recreate something like that but I did my best. Copy the link below to download the PDF of the transcription. Hopefully that will help clarify some of the parts for you. Cheers!

Greetings everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thur Greetings everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursdays. This weeks groove is an all time prog classic. "Watcher Of The Skies" from the @genesis_band record "Foxtrot". @officialphilcollins was on fire back when he recorded this record and this groove, albeit one bar long, is harder to play than it may seem. Both hand play the same rhythm and at 125bpm it is a great finger and hand exercise. But it still has to groove and there is nuance in how you hit all of the instruments of your kit. It is a fun one for sure! Come on back next week for Groove 44 . . #GroovyThursdays #Groove #NickDVirgilio #Genesis #PhilCollins #Foxtrot #WatcherOfTheSkies #Drums #MakeItHappen
Check out this video and tell me (honestly) how do Check out this video and tell me (honestly) how do we fare here? #TheSoulofZeppelin was founded by award-winning composer, guitarist and educator, @CarlBaldassarre. During COVID, he had a vision to handpick superb musicians and a compelling lead vocalist that could unlock the secret of @LedZeppelin’s sound. Such secret is hidden in the ability to improvise and to channel the band’s influences: which includes blues, funk, soul, swing, jazz, R&B, rock, country, and classical music. Like Led Zeppelin, #TheSoulofZeppelin improvises their way through #LedZeppelin’s greatest songs while channeling the band and their influences. As a highly acclaimed guitarist/connoisseur of @jimmypage and Led Zeppelin, #Baldassarre has a vast knowledge of Zeppelin’s history which he shares during each show to enhance the experience. The result is not an imitation or a caricature, but a living musical experience of the magic of Led Zeppelin in a presentation like nothing else in the world. - @MarcusDScott / Vocals (ex-Tower of Power) - Nick D'Virgilio / Drums - @CarlBaldassarre / Guitars - @JacobDupre_Official / Keys - Al Rolik / Bass #KeepingTheSoulAlive #Zeppelin #Rock #RockNRoll #NickDVirgilio #HardRock
Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursda Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays! This week we are taking a left turn from the hard rocking grooves of the last few weeks and going back to to some classic Mowtown goodness. The song is "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" from the @msgladysknight & The Pips record "Everybody Needs Love". If you have followed me at all then you know how much I love old school R&B, funk, and soul music. Some much of what groove is comes from all of those amazing players from back in that era. Even if you are hardest of hard rockers, or a country player, or polkas are your thing, you should study some of that music. Your playing will thank you for it. I guarantee it! Have fun with this one, it's not as easy as it may sound. Come on back next week for Groove 43.

Greetings everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thur Greetings everyone and welcome back to Groovy Thursdays. This weeks groove comes from the band @Muse and their song "Assassin". The song is off of their "Black Holes and Revelations" record and the incredible drumming is played by @dominic.howard I am a huge MUSE fan and love the way Dominic plays with such power and passion. This week is really two grooves for the price of one because I am showing the opening section of the song. You get the fast and furious opening groove, a really fun drum-fill, and then ultra-rocking groove that happens right before the vocal starts. It is great training and really fun to play. Come on back next week for Groove # 42! #GroovyThursdays #Groove #NickDVirgilio #NDV #Muse #DominicHoward #BlackHolesandRevelations #MakeItHappen
Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursda Greetings everyone! Welcome back to Groovy Thursdays. This weeks groove comes from the band @soundgarden. The song is "Spoonman" from their record "Superunknown". The drumming of @themattcameron is fantastic. Soundgarden was a great band. Along with Matt's very solid and musical drumming was the amazing voice of Chris Cornell. Their songs are very creative and gave Matt a lot of room to rock. This tune is in 7/4 but it also has a nice back beat to it so it doesn't really feel like it is in an odd time. The groove is powerful and is also a nice coordination exercise having to go back and forth between your toms and snare. This one is really fun to play and make sure to check out all of Matt's drumming. He's a monster! Come on back next week for groove 41. Cheers everyone! #GroovyThursdays #Groove #NickDvirgilio #Soundgarden #MattCameron #Spoonman #Superunknown #Drums #MakeItHappen
