James Wood Finger Drums

[SerendipityPlague]

Didn't I hear your name on Family Guy?

[EpiiiCZz]

WHY CANT THAT KID SHUT THE FUCK UP!

[BulutCyp]

You know what? You are one of the guys who make everyone else feel like an idiot. I'm 23, working on my first novel, no matter how enthusiastic I am nobody knows me, and I have no talent on drumming and you have everyhthing I want to have besides this catchy vid.. F you! (I mean fiction you)

[jdgwood]

dad you rock bigtime

[thingyee1118]

@jdgwood lol

[KnowKnot]

Thanks, very nice, surprisingly musical, and clever. Nice funk inserts as well.

(With that wrist, you really should have a set of uileann pipes...)

[petenice666]

Finger Blast!

[yuambari]

Heard the New Yorker Out Loud podcast and thought I should this out. It is my favourite edition of the podcast and this is brilliant drumming (although it sounds better when you can't see the fingers).

[sorryilreadthatagain]

thought I'd check this out after hearing Blake Eskine's interview New Yorker out loud podcast.

[vemugu61]

[MrJocelynt]

Remember that Sunday lunch at Kettner's a million years ago when you brought the restaurant to a standstill with your 'drum' solo, Chrissie Hynde leading the applause??? Lookin good, Jimmy Wood...

[momilo1995]

[serverlala]

nicee XD

[andymcnish]

LOL when I was at school with James Wood aged 11 or so, he was always getting told off by our English teacher for drumming on his desk!! I think the teacher used to read us Don Camillo is class and got especially irritated when 'Jammy' drummed through it..

[TroyPepper]

Hahaha

That was friggin' awesome, man.

[MustachioEdd]

So, not only the most interesting new literary critic (and what a treat we have in store as he develops and ages) but one hell of a finger drummer. I hear that William Hazlitt could do a mean moonwalk, and John Ruskin was an ace on the bongos.

[Murlinson12]

His next book should be How Finger-Drumming Works.

That was too easy. Sorry.

[crimm1984]

A lost career as a drummer has been the absent, sunless center of all Wood's writing.

[TheXXLProductions]

yeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aahhhhhhh

[EllieCastilloSiu123]

wow

[ESP1EMG]

haha that was good!

[PsychologyProf]

Pretty good, James Wood.

[BigEdDunkel]

As Shklovsky instructs, tap your finger down at the exact moment you feel the beat will play, so every tap sounds at the exact time as the beat.

[brennanbckw23]

eat it, edmond caldwell...

-contra (contra james wood)

[lemur2012]

Take that, Deresiewicz!

[gallagso]

excellent! no drummer face!
