Props to you man!.... You are a blend of a young Billy Cobham and a

What's killing me is you do it all in traditional grip!!!! Nice Playing with

power and intensity!!I

[drekus58]

@sticktrik THANK YOU, I I AM SPEECLESS TRULY OVERWELMED BY YOUR COMMENT, I APPRECIATE IT VERY MUCH THAT INSPIRES ME A BUNCH, MAY GOD BLESS YOU BIGTIME DRE!!

[speedoflite1]

@drekus58 repeat: you're pretty good. sorry u took offense to my suggestion to loosen up. no need to YELL at ppl either. this is a place for "All Comments", so take it ez. Happy New Year

[drekus58]

@speedoflite1 NO IM SORRY I DID NOT GET OFFENDED AT ALL I DO APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENT, I REALLY DO, I HOPE I DID NOT SEEM RUDE TO YOU, THANKS AGAIN, YOU WERE COOL ABOUT IT ALL THAT YOU SAID , YEP!!! AND THAT WAS GOOD FOR ME TO HERE ON THIS SITE AND THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND MEAN THAT " GOD BLESS YOU AND I WISH YOU THE BEST THIS YEAR , TRULLY DRE!!!

[drekus58]

@speedoflite1 I I WAS NOT YELLING AT YOU AT ALL. I JUST TYPE IN CAPITAL LETTERS MOST OF THE TIME. A LOT OF TIMES PEOPLE ARE MEAN AND SOME TIMES I'M NOT SURE WHATS UP OR DOWN ON THIS SITE SO FORGIVE DRE!! SERIOUSLY GOD BLESS

[speedoflite1]

@drekus58 You sound very good. phrasing, musicality, rudimentary skills, variety, originality are all in your favor. lots can be gained by playing loose and picking your spots for dynamic effect (which is typically hard for serious personalities with big muscles to appear to do). same idea applies to the use of CAP letters. something to consider, huh? [peace]

[drekus58]

@speedoflite1 I do see what your saying and I Will try to do that, Thanks again For your kind and incouraging words Dre!!!

[speedoflite1]

@drekus58 "Do or Do not. There is no try."~Yoda. practice playing with relaxed intensity along with a smile, and your drumming will improve beyond the usual routine. ~said a teacher long ago. It may serve you well too (in time); adding to your awesome skills.

[drekus58]

@speedoflite1 A GOOD POINT I WILL DO THAT!! THANKS

[drekus58]

 THANK YOU ALOT, GOD BLESS YOU!

[gizmohawk69]

You just blew my mind, man. I'd be proud of my drumming if I could even play 1/10th of this skill level. Amazing.

[wickit822]

dude,u r fucking awesome,,,awesome control,,,killer man,,im amazed

[mikper7]

Proof positive not all great drummers are household names. Props for keeping it traditional!

[drekus58]

@mikper7 THANKS' I JUST DO WHAT I KNOW TO DO, IVE BEEN INTO MUSIC SINCE I WAS 6 YEARS OLD, JUST THE THOUGHT OF NOT PLAYING AN INSTUMENT, IS JUST ABOUT AS HORRIFYING AS ONE BEING WITHOUT MEDICATION THAT ONE MUST TAKE TO KEEP SAIN IN HIS OR HER MIND, OTHER WISE I COULD BE ON MY WAY TO SEE A BRAIN DOCTOR, POSSIBLY.TO OPTAIN A MENTAL BALANCE, FOR MY SELF TRULY. IVE' NEVER TOLD ANY ONE THIS BEFORE, (BUT TRUE IT IS) GOD BLESS YOU

[speedoflite1]

he's pretty good as there's much to like!!! --loosening up to make it look easy/fun, not so serious, would be nice. hard for serious shirtless muscle guys to appear musical, but it would help. he deserves high praise tho.

[cbr1000drummer]

I love the way roto toms sounds, especially played this well.. I just can't get over the way they look. Chrome them out - no black - and a better looking stand..

[YosswellMusic]

I found this looking for what Rototoms sound like, and now i am in love with a beautiful musician.

Please mic your kit so that I can drench my ear in your art since I can't listen live.

That was nuts. Thank you so much for honing your skills.

What chills me is there's probably more up your sleeve.

[drekus58]

@YosswellMusic HELLO YosswellMusic, I SURELY' WANT TO THANK YOU FOR PROBABLY THE THE LARGEST COMPIMENT THAT I HAVE EVER RECIEVED OTHER THAN ONEOF MY SPECIAL FAMILY MEMBER, OR SIBLING OR A CHILD OF MINE WHO KNOWS ME WELL. IT IS ALSO VERY CHILLING AS WELL AS IT IS AN HONOR TO HAVE YOU NOTICE, NOW I AM IN LOVE WITH A BEAUITIFUL FAN. IM SURE THERE IS MUCH MUCH MORE UNDER BOTH OF OUR SLEEVES, AND NOW ILL START TO SPELL BEAUTIFUL CORRECTLY ,THANKS TO YOU. DRE

[jmanbgg]

he beats those drums like theyre white supremists..lol

[Darkschizotypal]

Groovey as hell. Practice makes perfect.

[TheTimsislands]

I hate drum solo's, BUT MAN THIS BOY IS WILEY!!!!

[CarlosMacMartin]

Awesome groovin' Pops!! keep up the good work!!

[storoker1]

GOOD! GOOD !

NICE! GROOVE!!

[ThrobnWood]

Awesomo den suki! That's my fake Japanese. It means... aah, AWESOME! :j

[raaayxsdx3]

talk about MAD talent and MAD muscles, i like working out and drumming.. but i wish i was buffer and better at drums haha.

[musicfamily]

That is some amazing drumming!!

[zobazoba69]

You're the best drummer I've seen on youtube: great sound, great style!

[gavinggunholdlive]

Lol this guy is pretty beast. When it comes to serious groovin you can't beat a Latin or black guy. Just saying. I like how at some point the camera "randomly" zooms in on the mans pecs. Lol. Even with the less than ideal sound quality u can still tell that this guy has some serious skill. Good work man

[247misterman]

i just came across your video also, you've got more skill than any other drummer i'v watched on youtube, i dont know if you'v ever heard of "Cobus" but he can't compare.

If you did some covers of some songs with your own twists on them you'd be huge.

[CALLmeSPIERS]

nice job with the rotos amazing with tha hats

[drekus58]

@CALLmeSPIERS I realy love the way you have control over that instrument that ur playing , and you sound great on it, keep it up , Im not shure what the instrument is, but i would love to play one some day, your good man.god bless you andere ! drekus58

[MrGolddigger1234]

i feel sorry for the drums when they get hit by him

[foreverurfantasy]

so proud of u! :D

[drekus58]

@foreverurfantasy I AM PROUD OF YOU AS WELL { FOR SURE} drekus58

[vrdrums]

I'm really glad i found your page by accident man. You've got some really inspiring licks and if it wasn't 12 a.m I'd be on my kit shredding. I guess my pillow will do for now.

[drekus58]

@vrdrums I TOO, AM ALSO GLAD THAT U FOUND MY VIDEO, THANK YOU LOTS , I AM INSPIRED ALSO BY UR COMMENT .drekus58 THANKS" AGAIN.
