As a singer covering many Heart songs over the years...I've never played with even an older cat that could nail it like that. Amazing job! You're hired! LOL
Another great cover of a great song. Mike Derosier really carries the beat in this song, and you did a great job in your reproduction. Thanks for sharing!
real nice job...I checked out half a dozen other barracuda covers and yours was by far the cleanest version that stuck to the original...it's cool seeing interpretations of the same song by other drummers but sometimes you just want a quick cheat sheet that's as close to the original as possible if your cramming for a gig...keep up the great playing...
Very sorry to see some people just can`t talk or say something nice! I was a so called pro drummer for over 25 years and this young man is and will be and even better drummer then myself!
EEP! Sorry cmeplay4! It was my little brother that made that comment! He plays drums and is probably just jealouse! P.s I think his comment means that part of the song sounded to him like she was saying dick not quick...
Dang man... you play great. I like th way you bang those cymbals!! A lot og guys on tube don't hi them with force and it seems to drag the song down... Well played Michael. you are now my favorite on You tube.....
Man, good to know kids these days still have good taste in music. Heart is brilliant! good work man. I've watched you're other vids and you have amazing talent. You like the old stuff check out Gentle Giant,Steely Dan,Moody Blues,etc. teach you some good tech in syncopation. Keep it up
What cymbal and drum brands do you have? Also, what brand are your headphones? They kind of look like my Vic Firths. Anyways, great job! Sounds just like the original! AWESOMENESS!!!
wow..! your amazing at drumming! you've got my favourate set out of drum kit =) & your whole drum kit sounds so nice, what type of cymbals have you got??? + what make are your drums???
I think you should chuck your own stuff into the songs to improve even more.I can follow songs no problem but i always will do more rolls & some extra stuff just so i can get more out of the song.Maybe rush songs dont need any extras but oher bands yeah.
Nice Kick and Snap!!!! great job!! What make is your kit!!! sound's pretty dam good!! sent you a video of me playing Baracuda on guitar!! can you send me drum track who know's!!! Peace!!!!
Amazing - how do you learn this stuff? I have a 8 year old son I want to get into drums but he gets so easily discouraged learning new things - I just wish I knew how to tell him how big the reward is to be able to play like you one day. Amazing
I can't believe how close to the original this sounds. And you're really cute. I feel like a cougar saying that lol You should try Subdivisions by Rush!! :)
Dude....that was awesome. You nailed it! I have been playing drums since 1985.....keep it up man! I have been hearing this song a lot on the radio....107.7 ........great work dude!
WOW! You don't look like you were born yet for HEART. Anyway phenominal job. One Question. Where did you get the money to buy that kit and cymbals???
This kid is great. Screw all the negative comments, I'm sure those who leave negatives are much better players-right. Fantastic job. How about "Achillies Last Stand"? I bet you could pull it off....keep rocking, brudda.
Dear Lever Squeezer -- I looked at the comments on YOUR channel and it is absolutely obvious that your comments to other youtube users are ALL negative !!! If that gets your rocks off, then I'm happy for you !! BITCH !!
how could 2 people dislike this? it's like popeye's chicken it's fucking awesome
