There&#8217;s really no right or wrong way to perform this, but here are a few tips to help you out:<\/p>\n<h5>Trash can ending structure:<\/h5>\n<p>\u00bb Crash hit (optional: roll on the crashes)<br \/>\n\u00bb Play your chosen pattern around the kit<br \/>\n\u00bb Signal to your band that you&#8217;re about to end the song<br \/>\n\u00bb Final crash hit<\/p>\n<h4>1) Use a pattern you already know<\/h4>\n<p>Pick a sticking you&#8217;re familiar with! There are no rules that are set in stone with trash can endings. You can choose something as simple as a single or double stroke roll, or add in the kick drum to add a little more punch. Just about anything goes!<\/p>\n<h4>2) Play it slow OR fast<\/h4>\n<p>Don&#8217;t feel pressured to rip around your kit as fast as possible. Trash can endings can feel loose and relaxed, or tight and quick. You can even go back and forth depending on the vibe you&#8217;re going for.<\/p>\n<h4>3) Signal the end of the song to your band mates<\/h4>\n<p>There are multiple ways to do this, so watch the video above to see a few examples in action. Whether it&#8217;s a large arm motion or slapping the snare, you need to make sure everyone is locked in for the final crash hit.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>More lessons from Stephen Taylor<\/strong>:<br \/>\n\u25ba\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/10-drum-fills-every-drummer-should-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10\u00a0Drums Fills Every Drummer Should Know<\/a><br \/>\n\u25ba\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/how-to-get-paid-as-a-drummer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How To Get Paid As A Drummer<\/a><br \/>\n\u25ba\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/church-drumming-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">5 Tips For Drumming In Church<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are many ways to end a song on the drums, but today we&#8217;re going to take a look at the &#8220;trash can ending&#8221; in particular.
