It will be after like two songs and my right hamstring, bass drum foot, feels like it's going to cramp up or something. It's kind of hard to play like that. Am I sitting too high/low or something?

  1. u should b playing with ur legs parallel with the floor while your foot is resting flat on the pedal. it sounds like u might b playing heel down, try playing heel up if ur not doing it already. sit at the edge of ur throne. dont use only ur leg at the hip, or just ur ankle. find a happy medium. it also sounds like u r playing a single bass pedal. try learning the heel toe technique as well. and the swivel technique. look them up on youtube, i use all these thechniques and they all work.
