[74jailbreaker]

What school do you attend?

[mrhopey]

@74jailbreaker This was when i was in College - Southwark College, now studying at Kingston University

[Reginaldoasdj]

@mrhopey WOOOWW

Congratulations... Very very good

[mrhopey]

@TheMusiciansNetwork Pearl Export bro. Cymbals were swag though lol

[TheMusiciansNetwork]

What kinda kit?

[chrstphrstphns]

I'm focusing on linear drumming right now and you do a good job of it. Really liked the video. PS- The haters hate because they know they have no skills.

[rawrxjoeness]

Don't take this as racism, but all the black drummers I see jamming out have this natural groove that no other drummers really have. Sweet freestyle bro!

[ltgreatsocks1]

@rawrxjoeness that's totally racist. Sounds like you see a black guy on the set and start looking for a hidden groove that may or may not be there.

[KamenRiderRhino]

@mrhopey I personally think your best thing to do is play to a regular drumless track ... a reccomedation would be the Kevin Powell track .. my cousin used it and he got in and im gonna use it and hopefully I do too .. but good stuff bro

[mrhopey]

@KamenRiderRhino Thanks bro, i got that Kevin Powell track. Gotta make a vid to it and post it soon. Stay posted

[information94]

Go bro!! wooo!!

[thisquinn]

nice bruh

[NEMISIS50]

Got some cool chops there, Don't forget man, Gotta make it groove...... woah there were ppl there.... that can be a bit nervy

[jayLkeyz]

Great job man. keep it up

[kohmplot]

You play very good man, dont listen to haters,,, with time and more work you are going to be a great dummer.. keep it up man,,,

[thatsfuckenfunny]

Its honestly such a shame that this guy's drumming is so good, his technique is great, his timing is good, I mean sure maybe a Chris Coleman or Dom Famularo can help him get better but he is still none the less fantastic. His fills are fun, I enjoyed the whole thing, and I read here all these Simon Cowell's of our society talking nonsense. I am a drummer aswell, your much better then me, just keep playing man, music is a great thing to share with people.

[mattchurchify]

I like the groove parts, but the fills seem sloppy. Still, you've got chops and I don't know why people would really hate on this. There's sooo much worse shit on here. lol.

[MrSuperDrums1]

you got skill man keep going !

[bballer1919]

i was grooving brutha good stuff

[BrandontLeak]

FEEL IS WAT U NEED

[GrimesawXD]

Whys everyone hating?? i think its decent :) keep it up man, youl only get better!

[Drumoutloud]

Dude, you really have the chops... Just work on tightening everything down to a groove and let it flow. But yeah, you obviously have the love and passion for it, don't listen to the haters.

Stay cool.

[pletonicsolids]

keep playing and have fun with it

[Stryke2wice]

Try playing... without sticks. Yea, play with your hands, that might sou... Wait, try not playing at all.. That should do the trick! Good luck man!

[mrhopey]

@Stryke2wice Thats cool of you dude, do you play an instrument?

[25seo]

@Stryke2wice wow man! that was a truly hilarious comment! seriously, who would play with their hands? btw I'm kidding, your a huge tool for writing something like that on a persons video. Put something up so we can see how talented you are...you cowardly bitch. Good luck man!

[mrhopey]

@25seo Thanks bro lool

Can't really hate too much on the haters, still get views off their ignorant assess lool

[Stryke2wice]

@mrhopey True!

[Stryke2wice]

@25seo Thanks man!

[chaosrokkfreak]

....and feel comes, with time.

[chaosrokkfreak]

Theres so many critics on here! Honestly dude, you have some chops. Your problems are pretty minor, nothing some practice won't fix.

[littlelonnie14]

playing with a click track, loosening up that left hand, and work on those fills. other that that your pretty solid!

[codyandcambria]

Your rushing the whole first piece on your hands, your feet seemed ok.

The second piece was just not impressive. There is so much you could have done with it, it just seems like your in a rut with your playing. Try playing some jazz or punk or metal. There's lots of stuff without vocals to play to.

[mrhopey]

@codyandcambria I can honestly say i never got a chance to rehearse these songs, literally i heard them once before then had to play them. My playing has improved since then, keep an eye out.

[mrhopey]

I appreciate all the comments...Really do, Negative and Good.

[armystrong2727]

Timing sucked and the track hesplaying to OMG horibble

[mrhopey]

@armystrong2727 They were for my assignements. Only had a choice of 4, chose these 2 and did my best. Can't complain i got my Distinctions. Thanks for the comment though

[tyj0322]

the first one was great with timing, but the 2nd one needs some met work

[VCameronV]

try playing with a click track!

[Sbanj07]

You could some metronome work! and try make your fills fuller they sound slightly empty>>

[Sbanj07]

[Sbanj07]

Timing man>>>

[mrhopey]

@Sbanj07 Is the timing bad or good?

[MrBarnett85]

What school you at?

[mrhopey]

@MrBarnett85 Final year at Soutwark College

[chopzmasta07]

Nice man, nice! I only went and studied so I can just drum and record lol. But having a drum teacher each week helped so much

[ElJefeUltimo]

Yes!

[FlamSalad]

So you can get into music colleges with these kinds of chops?

[mrhopey]

@FlamSalad Pretty much lol

[jachmed]

@FlamSalad

it's not only about the chops dude,

but he doesn't rly play with alot of feeling tooXD

[FlamSalad]

@jachmed yeah that's sort of what I mean. His fills all have the same structure so his chops are kind of boring..

[jachmed]

@FlamSalad

oh okee, than we both mean the sameXD

cheers

[elijah10490]
