How do you play the fill in "Slippin away part 2" around the 1:56 mark when you hit the snare and choke the cymbals?

Gavin Says:


It's just a snare hit leading onto a choked cymbal crash - but I play 3 notes on the bass drum leading onto that crash...so the 3rd bass drum lands exactly with the crash. It's quite easy to see that from the overhead camera shot.
