You can tell if a drummer is very good if he can make it look effortless (ala Thomas Lang). I have been playing drums for nearly 40 years and I am very good, but I cannot play with your grace and confidence. (I am too emotional when I play lol!) You got the touch. Very nice chops. I can tell you "practice" a lot and that you really love playing. BTW, ever play any Porcupine Tree?
Thanks for the kind words. I have been playing for about 27 years. I do try and practice as much as possible. Haven't tried any Porcupine Tree. They are good - I need to check out more of their stuff.
Porcupine Tree's Gavin Harrison is from another planet. He has incredible independence. He has a couple of instructional DVD's out there although I have never seen them. However I don't think they would do me much good, because I doubt I could "hang" even with luch practice. Check out the CDs In Absentia and Dead Wing to hear him at his finest. Just incredible.
Yes! I have seen some clips from Gavin's DVD. He is a monster. Incredible control with his feet. Makes you want to go to a corner and cry. I will check them out - I forgot that's who he played for.
Hey man, you rock! Awesome drumming to two awesome songs, keep them coming :D

Hey, Spencer. Thanks for the kind words. I'll have to see what to record next. Maybe some Rush would be good. See ya around.
snowdog211200 3 years ago
I've always liked Rush. Have you ever played/heard Between the Wheels?

Oh, yes! I used to play that song all the time in high school. I'll have to practice that one again - and maybe post it. Great song!!!

Very nice. Very smooth and effortless. I would have been wailing away like a mad man and still would not have been able to pull it off! lol!

For some reason, the video is just a fraction of a fraction of a millisecond ahead of the audio. I don't know why.
