Dude! Right frikking on! Great job! I am another Rush fan and drummer so I can totally appreciate...... Keep up the good work. Whoud you happen to have one of you playing Xanadu? That happens to be my favorite Rush song...
Awesome even when you dropped the stick. You are a master but I have to ask: have you done their song 'Losing it'? cause that's one of the most difficult I've heard from them.
One thing I like about this video is the guy keeps a straight face throughout his playing!! No goofy looking mouth twists, no slamming his head around like it's going to pop off and roll down the road. He just plays the damn song. That's it!!!! Good job! Just a suggestion: try using your left hand instead of your right during the beginning of the song. Once you get the fluidity down, it sounds more natural than the right hand.
from a drummer of 14 years that start becuz his dad took him to his first concert (test for echo tour) to another. you are fucking awesome. anyone that has anything hateful is really retarded as fuck like this lightingcat douchebag. your fuckin sick and i actually look up to you. keep doing what you are passionate about. im impressed and thats not very easy. im about to watch a few more of your videos
The stick move was slick... nerves of steel!!! It was like you conjured a new one out of thin air. If I wasn't looking close, I might have missed it. But then I suppose that's the point. ;-)
I tried to several times but Youtube will NOT accept it. I tried everything. There are still 21 songs that for some reason Youtube will not accept -- even if I redo it.
I would name them something different than the actual song. People won't be able to search for it easily, but anybody who finds your channel will get to see it. Great job on all the vids that did make it through.
@Gr8Gambit That doesn't work either. It doesn't matter what you call a video or what you put as keywords, when you submit a video, the YouTube bots take the audio and analyze that against its library of existing, copyrighted tunes and if any part matches any part of theirs, they either a) ban the video outright, or b) mute the audio.
You know, you could definitely help reduce Rush's insurance premiums! With you around to tour with them as Neil's understudy - the insurance company won't have to worry so much about a motorcycle mishap or achy shoulder! You ARE that good!
Awesome best yet with quality! Since your back doing some Rush. Could you do some old school stuff. I.E. Necromancer, Bytor, Lamneth, Cygnus 1, 2, anything really. lol Also, could you do a Rush licks on Territories sometime, I think I'm pretty close to getting it right, but not sure on some of the fills.
On my previous camera, I was using a snap-on, wide-angle lens to get the whole room, but it gives a sort of 'filmy' appearance to the video. With the new camera, I found that I could almost get all of the kit in without using the wide-angle, so I left it off. The reason the kit look smaller is because there are four cymbals and three floor toms that you can't see. So... it IS smaller, apparently.
I felt the stick getting spongy about four ride bell hits before it broke. I was hoping it would last until I had a better transition point, but I was ready to go if it broke too early. When it did, I was prepared. So, it wasn't as miraculous as it may look.
all haters out there on this guy...just give it up. he can play, and you know it. you just can't admit it.
