i hope he can make his own drum solo...furthermore, i like the part that he throw a drumstick from his back and catch the drumstick again!...that was crazy...i have tried for few time, but...ugh~
How did you learn/practice all those stick flips? im tryin to work on mine and its comin along relaly slow. Im gettin em, but you have your solid as hell...
@TheLildrummerboy2010 i asked him that last time I saw him at a show. He said he practices on anything he can find, all day every day. (pens, lighters, sticks, anything) lol hope this helps
cheks us out, we are a post-hardcore band that jhas just released a new premiere song fromm our new ep that will be available on march 2011, check our channel for more info about tours and news !! :D
I think Adam is prolly the most popular member of this band haha. There are more vids of him than anyone else. lol. He's freakin' beast. But I agree, Greiner is better. Both rule straight up.
if you think these drummers are badass why dont you look at grant mcfarland from TOTA and travis orbin from SEA. gray and greiner dont have shit on them
Tbh, i think at the same time as adam looking up to matt, theres a lot matt could take from adam. But neither is better than the other. there both great :)
@ShredYoung it was probably one of those venues that have a second floor that wraps around sry if you dont know what im talking about i cant think of any other way to describe it :P
you ever think that hes stiff because hes has to concentrate so hard. why dnt you play that and see if you can move around alot and do stick flips 1000rtodd
@screaming4silence325 the stiffness is for show purpoise only, supposed to kinda "prentend" to be machine like. And also im actually very loose at the joints that matter such a wrists and such. But its all for show, same with facial expressions and tricks. all just apart of the show brotha!
@1000rtodd Dude, I know what your trying to say but you are tottaly wrong. He is playing with proper posture; And as far as style...He has his style, its just that its a technical style of drumming.
@AsILayPlaying I think they are both just different drummers. Its all in preference. I think that Adam is a faster learner (and grower) as a drummer, and by the time he is Matts age, Matt will look like a pawn in comparison!!!! HAHAHA. I mean in the years that TIJ has been around, I have seen such growth in Adam.
But no offense against Adam or Matt, but I think Grant is the best of the PA 3 (as I call them, haha just made that up, pretty catchy imo!!!)
@AsILayPlaying i think they are both equal, considering they are like best friends im sure they practice a lot together and im sure they consider each other equal. they both do things that the other cant.
@AsILayPlaying people are ignorant.they just think hes better cuz he does his little stick tricks. but i agree 100% with you. and like you said he does look up to Matt
@Dirtbike778 not so much any more, were more just good friends now. I have to addmit and i get alot of crap for it but Travis Barker is actually my idol, ha. Hes who i go to for inspiration and ideas.
@AsILayPlaying matt griener looks up to blake richardson but it doesnt mean hes not on the same level. adam is on the same level as matt griener. he writes his own parts just like matt and their just as technical. the only thing that sets them apart somewhat is that matt pretty much invented him and adams style of drumming
@AsILayPlaying He may look up to him, that doesn't mean he's better, just means he idolizes him, some people get into music because they have an idol or someone they look up to, and after a while they may end up passing they're skill level, and I'm sure they'll never stop idolizing them just because they're better.
@AsILayPlaying He is better no doubt! Yes, he does look up to matt i talked to him yesterday.. but that doesnt mean matt is better. I look up to many drummers that I know i am better than. He is one of the most creative drummers out there!!
@AsILayPlaying Just because he looks up to greiner and he says he looks up to him doesn't mean he's not better than him. It just means he thinks he's personally not better than him. It really depends on what your looking for in the drummer when it comes to who is better. If your looking for comfortableness behind a kit. Definitely Adam obviously if he can throw his sticks around the whole time. I would say something about greiner but i really don't focus on his drumming. It's all opinion based.
@awkwardrummer I noticed that too :P WHen I first saw it I thought he was just leaning back to replace his stick, so I had too watch it again, and then I saw him do that and I was like WHAAAAAAAAAAT :P
@drummingxgodx2011 Yeah it's almost impossible to even notice unless you're looking for it, which is just even more insane haha. I wonder what else i've missed in his videos lol.
I hate this vocal.
