Tony Royster's drum solo 12 year old kid!!!

[marcusedell]

Absolutely AMAZING! Technique is incredible!! Mind Blowing performance!

[Killenmachine05]

funny, when from using pearl and zildjian to dw and sabian.

[TruGank]

dude is outstanding!!!!

[romeo282000]

you are great

[TheWargoddes]

i think hes good but he duz not put feeling into his drumming

[taraldsvik]

@TheWargoddes That is exactly what he does

[spikew10]

7:03 thats the proppper way to hold your drum sticks, said by the lord buddy rich himself. This hand technique is probably the best way to hold your sticks to get a really fast snare and upper toms solo, yet this hand technique is also really hard. royster is a brilliant drummer. May be the best drummer in the world

[ImaFez]

@spikew10 my first drum teacher taught me the technique he uses here, it does help with rolls, a lot and singles too.

[nyros3000]

6:13

[BumSmokesKush]

hell yeah this shit rocks for sure

[Kyollie123]

this proves my point that black people have rythm

[shanquilla562]

wow, this little negro can play those coconuts, I'll bet he can run fast and jump over fences good too, good job little negro, wherever your father is, he'd be proud

[maartenmoesen]

@shanquilla562 drop dead!

[AussieNewsViews]

@shanquilla562 You miserable sick FUCK.

[AussieStriker]

That is just absolutely amazing. Wish I could play a quarter as good as that.

[JeffWaltonsDrumsL]

Man, I just sent this video to everybody I know. Awsome!

[longlifetometal1995]

and if people says drumming is only jamming on some pads, then they can see what can do drummer when they jam

[CrazyNoob101]

Dang, I know if I had a drum set like that I'd would have beed that good at his age!! To bad my set sux!!!

[holma93]

@CrazyNoob101 Not in a million fucking ways... This dude got talents from birth.

[CrazyNoob101]

@holma93 haha yah ik but ive been playing since i was 2 so its almost the same thing... + his dad probably taught him a bunch of stuff were as i can probably teach my dad a bunch of stuff;) ive never had a single lesson either....

[Drumstix401]

i dont even think about stuff like that. AND IM EVEN 13!!

[iPunchYouIntheFace]

great stuff, though it sounds harder than it is. he is doing a lot of the same rudiments on different drums at different speeds. but fuck, 12 yrs old. thats amazing!

[Megaman1218]

i agree. btw, nice username dude.

[chaosmagegod1]

actually i love the whole damn thing!!!

[chaosmagegod1]

love 1:25

[MrFlypy]

I fucking love 6:25

[Bebhinnn]

Wow !

[MrCursedavenger1]

he is great drummer but he is playing with out counting

[longlifetometal1995]

@MrCursedavenger1

we don't care, it's not a whole song, it's just a solo.

When a guitarist plays a solo alone without other instruments, he doesn't count, he just does what he want

[pieanddrumsaregood]

holy shit, he's a natural

[talkalotproductions]

Nice man you have Pearl Drums!! Sick your amazing!!!

ej ihr penisköpfe ihr seid alle voll schwul und so...aber er is der miese!

[java360]

ViJJ45 i got to disagree wit u. this is a great solo conciderin that he was 12 years old then. There many drummers who have years of experience and still cant do half of wat royster did then. and yazoo281 come on man. seriously. terrible sense of rhythm a real drummer wouoldnt make such a comment.

[ViJJ45]

Amazing talent...not so great solo

[Cccsrmallory]

tony's the best drummer ive ever seen. look for his solo in singapore on youtube. crazy!

[yazoo281]

terrible sense of rhythm

[MyChoiceZildjian]

you are totally ridiculous. and don't understand music if you truly believe that

[xxelementSkatexx]

this kid schools my ass so bad!!!1

he makes anyone look bad - even travis barker

[emContradiction]

everybody makes travis barker look bad. Even travis barker makes travis barker look bad

[bigbosmaan69]

[m4rre]

Haha omg i must say his doublepedal-work is sooo goddamn imba, actually most of it is very, very talented. I wonder how old this guy is now.. Hes gonna be great, although, think of all the pushing his parents mustve done.

Ive played rumd sinca i was 8, im 20 now, and im not even close. Watching stuff like this really wants u to go home and sit by the drumset for the whole day for a few years =)

[KrilleLP]

[ajs5984]

[lailala7]

hes preetyy gooood!!

[plasticover]

SUre hes great but i gotta feel bad for the kid im sure he has no friends because all he does is drum

[Ymam]

There is nothing so sad about that. The drums and the audience are his friends. If he loves drumming then let him drum.

[Shadow0p]

I agree completely, I mean hell, its not like drumming is necessarily a bad thing, I've been playing for a while now and I meet plenty of people through it.

[segogol]

there's no word ............

[ajfoundation2107]

omo mehn!!!!!!

[jhonpatrickdave]

wish my baby to be talented as that kid.

[berntdoble]

Haha, you probably can't now, either! Hahaha, but then again, there are few who can. I want to learn how to play the drums.

[Protrayal]

ya holy crap. uh, wow.

[assassinonogoverno]

o puto devia era ir bater punhetas pa fds filho de merda

[Flush333]

It's really nice to see someone play more techically than just "omg he's so fast"-style. Amazing technique, amazingly talented kid. Mind-blowing solo. 5/5

[gordishosexy]

maan i cant believe it 12 years an hes a lot better than me cuz i kinda suck :p but he gives me a hope im going to improve with the drumms or at leasta ill try you jealouys ppl you should be supprting him not baggin him

[Gonzo4sticks]

the best part is when its at 6: 26 with all that splash stuff

[SmileyJoao]

Omfg You are 12 years old? O_o You are tallented

[OneGodDamn]

DAMN!

So much better than me - bastard :P

[simmo040]

to all those ppl that sed this kid sucks, fuckin i would like to c u do any beta, u only bag him coz ur jelous and know that he would shit all over u at drums so the only way u can feel good bout ur self is 2 bag him, wen u give me prof that he is shit then we will talk.

[iM2fr35h]

Wow, amazing solo, shows what hard work and dedication can get you. Hes a hell of a lot better than me and hes only 12.

[silversteinx3]

this kid is fuckin amazing. he pulled that double bass like nothin

[COBHClover]

ahah talented kid prolly poons half the negative commenters her

[TomHilliar]

Awesome drumming, interesting to watch and engaging. Nice dedication too. I doubt he'd ever waste time reading such lowly comments below, but I think you're a great muso --> thanks for the entertainment. I'm sure we'll see this name again!

(P.S. everyone writing rude awful stuff below, post a link to your awesome videos that we all want to see)

Tom.

[YouAreAPirate93]

Tom, i agree with your comment totally. This video shows total dedication into what has turned out to be an amazingly interesting and mind-blowing talent. i hope he has time to read your comment as well as mine because then he will see that some people on this Earth know full-on talent when they see it. And yes, I would also like to see all these indecent people posting cruel comments subject a video proving all of us wrong.

Thanks Tom

Jordan

[gorelock88]

holy god this kid is rockin out!

[mariokidz]

[mariokidz]

OMG U SUCK

[Jakeyboy100000]

[JamieWilmot]

I really doubt it sad ass. You have no life and have to hide behind a computer dissing a 12 year old. Wow must make you feel tough.

He's awesome and you suck, your a pathetic excuse for a life.

[TomHilliar]

yeah jamie i agree. Weird people...

Anyways, lets forget idiots and talk serious music; do you guys play music? what instrument? I'm a trumpeter and I run a Stage Band in Sydney, Australia. Anyone else playing music?

I actually run the Music Society in Sydneymy stage band is here too (dot)musocunsw(dot)org. If you have any creative ideas or tips please come along all. Also Im interested in trading full scores with people so yeah. let me know if you like -> it's all on the FORUM, T.

[mariokidz]

[AnotherVoyage]

[cejay30000]

[SparkyPantsMcGee]

OMG

[rockandrolla123]

that was awesome!! he has everything a rock band could want!!! somebody have him in their band!!!!jeez

[godbluffvdgg]

this kid stinks- just kiddin- amazing prowess , great syncopations and polyrythems, he will only get better as he gets stronger , he has the coordination of a 20 year jazz virtuoso, bravo, his future looks bright

[GaLaCticHeR0]

I think that many of you dont take into consideration that he was only 12 years old and already at that complex of a level. That solo was flawless! One word to sum it up,: "Unbelievable!!!"

[BlackStonesNana]

Fucking brilliant!

You rock kid!

[aegbb]

in the middle a little boring, but in the end he has very good ideas.

[invaderzimfan11]

i t s not boring in the middle it s just not as fucking amazing as the rest of it

[aegbb]

of course he's a genius drummer, but its's just not my taste

[sickdrummer5793]

umm im jelous i wish i was tht good when i was twelve lol dnt we all

[walsall]

He was voted up and coming drummer of the year in 2000, so I expect to start seeing more of him, he just needs to get behind a top band.

[Marisueksu]

Being an old video, bloody hell, this is far by one of the most impressive, considering his age and skill at that time!

[zentera1]

In 5499 BC a little boy named Dante was killed by a man with a katana blade, he then raped the corpse as he shouted NINA NINA.

If you don't repost this 3 times on 3 different videos the killer will come to your house at 11:59pm and carve those words into your back!

[SadSpoon]

Holy crap, I'm 13 and have been drumming all my life and I'm not half as good as this kid. That's pure natural talent.

[firemanocc]

It's alright I know a 40 year old thats been at it for 30 years that could do way better.... No seriously if I were you I would get into a band because I know alot of drummers that don't sound a quarter of what you do... Keep the beats up kid and keep the solos comming... Your awesome!!!!

[Comedian101]

my friend can do that and he is 12.. um its not that special.. he just practiced beating on a drum set when he was little.. oh well its still cool

[apusbass]

este pendejo la caga

[jobedd]

This kid is the devil, There's no way a 12 year old kid can do that unless he sale his soul to the devil or was in prision for his 12 years of life. Fuck you kid!!!!You fustrated me.. YOU FUCKING FUCK!!!!

[Marisueksu]

How about fuck off you fucking emo fuck. Go kill yourself.

[overtime2005]

Hey-Libertysk8r! so why don't you show us all how long you should suck!...hmmmmm ill bet you can do it on your knees for about evert two hours..huh?!

[gokhan1507]

[crackfare]

black kids nowadays.... They got way too much rythm.

[chimpspanner]

I would kill to have this kid (well, guy now) as a drummer.

And I mean..literally...kill.

[hyperkid3789]

And that was 1997. :)

[xxkrazii66]

[SPAZZYG]

[imbored888]

its very nice seeing a black person playing a rock drum solo. because i love it wen ppl break stereotypes

[libertysk8r]

thhis kid sucks....well i mean hes a good drummer i just dont like his style... i hate when he stops every 2 seconds

[Aresius]

[mapexmars123]
