This is a cool idea I took from Dennis Chambers years ago. It’s played as triplets and the whole idea behind it is that your wands are moving around the kit in different directions crossing when they meet. My RIGHT hand goes over the top of my LEFT. Playing triplets fits this pattern well as there are 6 hits in the lick to complete it. My RIGHT hand is moving anti-clockwise and my left moving Clockwise.

My LEFT hand starts on the mounted tom and my RIGHT hand starts on the snare. Easiest way to understand this lick is to check the transcription here : Screen Shot 2016-02-22 at 2.49.19 pm
