Drums are percussion which is responsible for keeping time. A simple riff has two 4 beat counts. When writing your music keep this in mind. You can get fancy with 1/2 notes and such later when your band gets tight or in synchronization with each other. I love garage bands. Raw talent takes me back ... I miss my bass ... and that hot drummer. Oh yes, drummers know all about rhythm.
Tool rocks! It is definately in my top 5.

You can set up a metronome where both you and your drummer can see it. One of the commonest problems when playing in session is staying in time. The drummer, unless he's very, very good, will be slowing down and speeding up, and not even be aware of it. A metronome in view will keep everyone on the beat. Good luck, and hope to hear you on the radio sometime!

Practice playing music to a metronome.

Know your songs.It is a good idea to start with a four count on the stick..........sounds lame,but everyone knows where they are at.
