wow, dude you are amazing! I wish I could drum like that! :D Seriously, i need tips, im trying to learn a song, but I can't seem to determine which drum is being used when and unfortunately there are no drum covers or tabs for that song! :(
Actually he can, you can buy a braile bar that allows you to read stuff, so all he has to do it now where to go to navigate to the comments and highlight it.
Okay, chrsharvick29, you are an inspiration man! i was looking at covers for Ignorance, and i saw your ignorance cover and i decided to look into it, and let me tell you, IT WAS BEAUTIFUL! but not only that, but doing that good for being blind, wow man, inspirational!
but is that the Demo-version of "Hallelujah"? coz the album version doesnt sound like this, and hayley sounds young on this, so i guess it's the demo version..amazing though
Well, I learn songs very fast but I do play them allot. I can learn songs within just a few times of hearing them. I was playing these songs for quite awhile before I recorded them.
@chrsharvick29 That´s cool i got a friend how can do the same! But with the lyrics of a song! Best drummer need mor videos to watch so nice to listen to!
very musical unlike most. solid dynamics and light technique. relaxed is good, but you have to do something about your head. if you play live like that, you'll get embarrassed and most importantly, you won't be able to "communicate" with the others in the band effectively.
I don't play like that in the band. I'm very alert to what is going on when I play with a band. I'm visually impaired(blind) and play in a cage so I have to pay attention allot. I play like that in my room because I'm kinda isolated in the headphones and have nothing to pay attention to lol
wow you drum really good!!.. i m impressed but it s kinda funny that you seem to be afrade of hiting your your head with yr sticks xd ( just wanted to say that tooxd)
K series are prolly the best zildjian series, plant z are beginner zildjian cymbals, K are very pricy and planet z are very cheap, unless your talking about Z customs, they're pricy too
I started when I was like 2 so I really don't know how to teach anyone. I can just say watch other drummers and learn the basics. Work up a practice routine then do it as much as you can.
Lol, this guys gonna be legally deaf by the time hes 40 too, as most drummers probably will be, as I probably will be. Not trying to be rude, because on a side note, this guy is really good, blind or not, listened to his jam session
did you read the rest of the comments or just want to ask a stupid question. Being partially blind doesn't mean I have no vision, it just means I do not have full sight. I have a very rare form of vision impairedness that the doctors don't fully understand. I can't see well enough to drive or see a black board in a classroom, btw, I'm in my fourth year of engineering school. I don't think its amazing to be able to do normal stuff but I know how I am. Other are different. Sorry to be rude.
I didn't choose to be blind so enough of the stupid blind comments. If you don't have something to critic about my style other than calling it gay, find somewhere else to post.
To the point where I have to get 6 inchs from my monitor to read well. I can't drive or read a white board at school. And the only glass that help me are sunglasses for contrast. Other than that I can see pretty good. i was born this way so I have nothing to compare to.
man are you blind you always have the eyes closed are you blind or you can play the drums with the eyes closed if you can play the drums with your eyes closed youre godand if youre blind better you are the super god
thanks for the complement. But I'd like clarify. Just because someone is blind doesn't mean they can't play drums. if your comfortable at your drum set, you SHOULD be able to play with your eyes closed. Vision has nothing to do with hand-foot coordination.
you are so blessed to have such a great talent! i'm overwhelmed. i will show your videos to a friend who's playing drums. i'm sure he could pick up ideas from you.
i hope you can also do Franklin and Decode (both Paramore songs) =)
not totally, just partially. Can't drive but its not too bad. Just the way I look when playing is weird. I just don't pay attention to what I'm doing.
just because someone is blind doesn't make it amazing they can play drums. It just means its harder for them to start off with... ive been playing 2-3 months now and honestly playing with my eyes open and closed...there really isnt any difference when you get used to the drums positioning....Thats why its harder to start off with. That wasnt meant in a mean way i just find it silly really when people assume people who are blind are amazing for playing drums or anything really...
very true. I've been playing all my life so it doesn't affect me at all. I pick up music allot faster than most people because I use my hearing more. The only thing harder to do is check signals from people on stage.
WOW!! your great. I played this song with my ban, and only knowing how to play the drums for about 4 months i picked one of the hardest songs to learn first haha. I can never get the bass right though. Awsome cover though.
I hate to tell you but Paramore doesn't fall into the groove category. I know how to play in a groove because its what I've done my whole life. I know how to play cymbals too. these songs are full of them so don't say I'm over use them. I'm not a rock drummer so I might not play them like everyone would.
i think what he means is you just sit there like your bored....no energy man... thats why he says you drum like a robot....and i agree....your good and everything but your boring as hell to watch...sorry but its true....
Here is my point, so many drummers are trying look a certain way when drumming. I'm not. I'm actually legally blind so that really doesn't seem to matter to me. I'm not a typical drummer and will never be. I don't take offense to any of your comments but I'd wish people would realize drumming is more about sound. I'll try to make a video of me looking entertaining soon.
im sorry i dont mean to offend you this is just my opinion... i agree the sound is more important and you deffinetaly have achieved a great sound, just when people "rock out" on their drums its just them showing that its fun, and when you see people who just sit there its sad to say but it looks alot like its more work than fun and drums should always be about fun aswell.
but in your defense... The cymbals thing, plaidretena your wrong, cymbals are used differently in different styles, like some use the top some use the edge. So its not incorrect, just a different style. And i cover both these songs (no vids) and he isn't over using cymbals... Paramore's drummer use alot of cymbals, go listen to the actual versions and hes playing it correctly... Maybe a few extra high hats at points but thats to make it his own version.
I agree, I'm having fun, trust me. the fun for me is getting better and doing things right. I'm kinda picky lol. But I can rock out hard, I just don't do to cover lol.
Well aslong as your having fun then keep it up, sound wise (like how clean the drum kit is) i would rate you just under Cobus, but come on... His recordings are just insanenly good.
Cobus is very good at what he's doing and I think he can rock with the best. The funny thing is, I'm just recording these with $700 camera. No mics. I put sound systems in professionally so I know how to put mics on a set so I need to get some and a usb mixer.
very solid cover man. love the added dnb accents.

im sorry i dont mean to offend you this is just my opinion... i agree the sound is more important and you deffinetaly have achieved a great sound, just when people "rock out" on their drums its just them showing that its fun, and when you see people who just sit there its sad to say but it looks alot like its more work than fun and drums should always be about fun aswell.

but in your defense... The cymbals thing, plaidretena your wrong, cymbals are used differently in different styles, like some use the top some use the edge. So its not incorrect, just a different style. And i cover both these songs (no vids) and he isn't over using cymbals... Paramore's drummer use alot of cymbals, go listen to the actual versions and hes playing it correctly... Maybe a few extra high hats at points but thats to make it his own version.

I agree, I'm having fun, trust me. the fun for me is getting better and doing things right. I'm kinda picky lol. But I can rock out hard, I just don't do to cover lol.

Well aslong as your having fun then keep it up, sound wise (like how clean the drum kit is) i would rate you just under Cobus, but come on... His recordings are just insanenly good.

Cobus is very good at what he's doing and I think he can rock with the best. The funny thing is, I'm just recording these with $700 camera. No mics. I put sound systems in professionally so I know how to put mics on a set so I need to get some and a usb mixer.
