@RoyMayorga1 Hi Roy! Let me just say your work ethic and precise, incredible drumming inspires the hell out of me, cannot express that enough, even though I am a guitar player. Audio Secrecy BLEW MY MIND(thank you!)An interview at Carolina Rebellion on here I saw I understand there is another Stone Sour record coming, cannot WAIT! But I have a question about the DVD in Brighton,any news on when it will be released? LaCrosse and LAZERfest were insane! Hope you reply, thanks again Roy!! \m/

[Boymentation1994]

@RoyMayorga1 Hey man random question. When you're playing live, how often do you drop your sticks :D

[RoyMayorga1]

@Boymentation1994 only when they break or shatter in my hand....like tonight

[JackMehoff845]

@RoyMayorga1 dude i saw you with stone sour when you guys came through tampa for uproar and you kicked some ass and took some names man. i love your style of playing bro and i hope to see you again soon

[Boymentation1994]

@RoyMayorga1 Thanks for replying, can you put up a vid of you play Mission Statement, and also tell Corey to grow his hair long lol :P

[thenyappymaker]

@RoyMayorga1 dosent that hurt?? sounds painful!

[RoyMayorga1]

@thenyappymaker what are you referring to?

[thenyappymaker]

@RoyMayorga1 sticks shattering in your hands? dont you get splinter in your hand?

[RoyMayorga1]

@thenyappymaker oh that.....its more annoying than hurting. .....only stings for a sec.

[Boymentation1994]

Hey Roy, just a random question. When you're playing live, how often do you drop your sticks? :P

[aneiles96]

does anyone know if he still uses vic firth rock sticks?

[Pasi130]

looks like he is sitting a bit low :D

[RoyMayorga1]

@Pasi130 looks that way because of the camera angle. I do sit kind of high actaully.

I used to sit way to low as far as the seat can go down until a couple years ago.

I took my kit apart and put it back together accordingly to my body and reach of my arms. What a world of difference. I was inspired to do so watching Neil Peart's drum video where he explains and talks about circular motion. You should check it out.....its awesome.

[Villex93]

Why do all these awesome bands go to places like Romania which is a developing country compared to many European countries?

[MonkeyMan214]

Hey Roy,

First off I just want to say, YOU KICK SO MUCH FUCKING ASS!! \m/

Please tell me... How did you get so good!?!?!?!?

I really need some tips... I want to be like you one day.

I don't take lessons, my only resource is basically online.

PLEASE HELP!!

[uhstud68]

Roy you are one of my favorite drummers. You are one of the biggest influences on my playing. But why did u change ur set up? The old setup for the come whatever may album and tour was really cool and creative. Not criticizing or anything. But just wondering why the change?

[m2p2b]

Great drumming, man!!! I love Stone Sour and the way you play it's awesome............

I like the fact that you let your hair grow...............

I was watching the video and I couldn't stop seeing how te sticks bend like if they were made of rubber............

Greetings, man!

You are awesome!

[filmer56789]

I wish I could of made it to uproar. but I can promise you ill be at the very next show going crazy! It would be super cool if you commented back! haha im trying to get your ride!

[thesumbum21]

Hey Roy, just a quick question.i just attended the first day of Uproar and i got a Magazine type thing and it says you use a "Roy Mayorga Signature Anvil Ride." I looked on sabian and searched the internet and couldn't find anything on it. Could you tell me what it is and if it's available to the public. Thanks.

P.S. Great fucking job, you put on an amazing show! Defiantly going to see you guy's again!

[RoyMayorga1]

@thesumbum21 Hey man,

Unfortunately is only a prototype and right now there is only 3 in the world.

But hopefully if people will start to make the demand for it to Sabian,then maybe they will make it for everyone. I hope for that to happen one day.

Rock on bro!

R

[MetallicaInMyHead]

sadly i missed the 3rd day from the festival .. bet it was fucking great .. hope to come back soon so i can catch you guys up

[Maggotz555666]

hey Roy you've been a GREAT influence on me recently and i was wondering what tom sizes and depths you have on your current kit as i'd like to get similar sound for my band Messiah To No Faith Cheers! \m/

[RoyMayorga1]

@Maggotz555666

Tom sizes are 13" X 11" and 14" X12" ...All shells are VLX Maple.

[Maggotz555666]

@RoyMayorga1 ah so the're DW fast(tm) toms..or have you left DW?

[RoyMayorga1]

@Maggotz555666 nope...still DW and they are standard size like I said above.

[ThexteraDrummer]

Are you using your signature ride anymore? Where could I get one if I wanted?

[RoyMayorga1]

@ThexteraDrummer Hey man,

You have to get in touch with Sabian and special order it because they don't mass produce it yet for music stores. I'm calling it the "ANVIL RIDE"

[aileanwazere]

roy is so great

makes it sound so easy

[Corey8Pommer]

Great. And this video has a nice effect to it....in the beginning the drumsticks seem to twist cuz of the powerful and fast playing ^^ lol
