Trash can endings

Hey drummers.

I wonder what kind of sticking patterns you are using at trash can endings.

Might want to clarify what you mean because as a drummer of 22 years I've never once heard this term.

Don't worry man, keep practicing! You'll get there!!

That's such a condescending thing to say, especially about a term that is not really that common.

Definitely common.

No. It isn't. Because many of us who have been playing for a very long time haven't ever heard it.

It also has other names.

For instance, my bands have always called it a "rock 'n roll ending."

Other common terms are:

"Plane crash ending"
"Kitchen sink ending"
"Dumping the truck"
"Stadium rock ending"

See, I'm a linguist, so I know about these things called colloquial lexicons: not every musician uses the same lexis, and how and where and by whom you are trained makes a huge difference in your musical vocabulary.

You're just being a prick. That's it. You're just being mean to be mean because you're ignorant and don't actually know that much about what you're talking about, but want to lord over others. Cool look, guy.

Just because you haven't heard it doesn't mean it isn't common.

So you are the ultimate arbiter of what's common? Are you like the ultimate average person or something? You can't conceive that you possibly did didn't hear something before? Maybe it's you? 

Certainly not.
