you can also double the surf drum and do the first one double.
count one-uh-mu-ke two-ah-mu-ke etc and play X-x-mu-ke-X-x-mu-x, th
big X's being a dummy stroke, the small x's not being played at all.
the real treat is in a high-hat afterbeat rythm as in the Penatrators
50 bucks a midget... (my favorite 'reggea' surf tune) ... and check
out the O'hara's!
