Dan Kirk's crazy Drum solo

[elbeasto4]

just like me when i go realy fast on the drums i sometimes stick out my tongue

[Soundman37]

average skills and average Solo.

[LittleBritianTV]

omg you guys who say he's crap are so dumb...come on, he's good and he kept it going for nearly 3 minutes. that must be hard work

[zzfunk13]

needs to be more melodic... just a bunch of noise drum solo... you can also tell he's running out of ideas as he goes

[gnialf]

this was mainly just a hit hard solo it could have used some dynamic but ok solo.

[etmoto75]

wheres that guitar center?

[Aviatorshades101]

yeah anyone can do that! ( sarcasm ) people that cant do what he can should stop saying hes bot good... : (

[pwrtreker]

nice man r u in a band?

[Hellome666]

I say all of you shut the fuck up unless you can do better. If you can, be my guest, post a video reply i'd REALLY like to see it. Otherwise, like I said, shut the fuck up. He's very good and we'll see when he gets signed to a band. :P

[blackbear259]

i love the fact that this guy is obviously good and all you other cunts can do is slag him off. I bet hes making money while we are sitting here watching him do it!

[Neptune0100]

Why is everybody bashing this guy...?

[LogicAndAtheism]

Because his title is misleading. His solo wasn't particularly extraordinary in any way. It was just alright.

[Neptune0100]

That's true. But you can't say he's not a good drummer.

[LogicAndAtheism]

He's a good drummer, but not great.

[SpringWater211]

he is super sloppy

[zippy46733]

I only play like this when Im ending a song or something. get some rythm

[csplendrig]

didn't sound too bad to me. I went to check your video of you doing a better job but I didn't see it.

[villerend]

is that Mute Math's Drummer?

[buttcheese96]

hey no it says dan kirk's drum solo thing, but lol yeah its not darren king (drummer for mutemath) he is awesome all hail MUTEMATH!!!

[IOnlySmokeDaFinest]

for somebody doing a demo i would think he would be better, or at least wear shoes....

[villerend]

you can grip the pedal better

[SFA33]

I allways lived by " more is less "

: /

[Kontaminate]

Which Guitar Center is this? It kinda looks like the one in Rochester, NY

[inlinefreak15]

nice drumming. i haven't been to a show in a while. i need to though. i can't believe 27 pages worth of people cared enough about technique and music theory to argue about it over a guitar center drum fuck around.

[bumdrums]

not all that impressive

[ForenWal]

Good playing but boring for other Drumers

[ridder1705]

pretty bad and sloppy... wow, really bad

[OptimusRhyme90]

That's not so impressive.

It was only single stroke medium fast wanking.

Try to groove som more.

[brdrumz]

You know...I should've taken up harmonica or something. Very nice drumming!

[jemccullough]

Guys stop worrying about music theory and Myspace. You don't find any guy off the street that can play like this. Just leave a compliment and make any suggestions that you might have and be done with it. Nice drumming by the way man.

[icanthearuduh]

does Censura have a myspace music account?

[904317]

wow you must be a fool

a drummer with some music theory under his belt will get much further than someone who just tries to "feel it"

of course you need a natural sense of rhythm and "feeling it" but knowing music theory helps a lot kid

[wodchaz]

I've always been better at "feeling it" than sitting/standing there and counting it out. As far as music theory goes...I'm moderately familiar with it. 2-3 years. (give or take a few months)

[tealover01]

holy shit that was awesome.. what are you bionic because at 1:23 that didn't look like anything a human can do!! LOL and you weren't looking at what you were doing i would have missed and hit myself or something!

[xxooxxoo8993]

i hit myself all the time i'm so retarded hahahaha

[asherlinde]

holy shit thats amazing

[chud89]

ur to sick man keep it up what guitar center were u at

[yadneerg777]

is alright, but no groove

[vidjal]

nice job man.

[KraZyHonkay18]

OMG this guy is amazing

[Zildjiian]

cockhead, hello. if you play drums.. or if your half fucking descent at them, you will realise this guy is NUTS at drumming

NOT JUST HIS FILLS, NOT JUST HIS KICKING which you say isnt in time..

His theory work, has been mastered..

hes playing 6 kicks.. in time of 4 beats..

Ive been playing for 2 years and i spotted it instantly

[kyjello12]

yeah but it doesent groove. drummings about groove and feeling not some bullshit music theory.

[ridder1705]

Actually I know alot and this guy freaking sucks balls.

SOOOOoo sloppy, wowsa it was sloppy...

[Olddrummachine]

Fucking nervous he is .

[420jaymac]

why are people sitting around watching ? haha, there should be some old bastard sayin .theres nothin to see here ! move along now

[mikeunit06]

its drum offs round one at guitar center, and there definately is something to see, he was playing a kick ass solo

[bassrocker1294]

dude this guitar center looks like the one in orlando, cuz of the line up of the drum pedals near the service counter.

[primamater]

hahaha and your face!!!! please... Rainman,,,

ah... your double bass sucks. NO GROOVE MAN, NO GROOVE.............

[splashy44]

lol he's playin like he's late for work!

[strikEit11]

hahaha true that

[DCsProductions]

dayyyum dude uve must of drank ALOT of caffine or something to drum that fast

[Vwang98]

nice chops but not very musical of a solo...drums are music remember?

[ddongbap]

the definition of music is in the eye of the beholder.

[xxRockNationxx]

thaw was pretty sick

[primamater]

horrible. no groove, no expresion. pure noise without technics

[bobthexombie]

you want horrible expressionless noise go listen to yoshiki haha.

[normalstupid]

dbm1, if you don't feel the groove here, it's your loss...

Awesome drumming!

[dbm1]

No Groove........Dissapointing...­...saying that some Nice Double Bassing:D

[illinoisdrummer]

my sister just turned 8 and i think that she could pull off that "solo/noise"

[ihaveguntdreams]

a beat would have been nice

[Irysh69]

Not bad loose in sum bits but perfect practice makes perfect

[Thomlistentoslayer]

no taste at all!!!

[4ssassinxp3]

not bad

[ghostryder000]

Really good. yes hes fucking good he is. u guys that say he suck dont know talent. travis barker suks

[SweepCreep]

you guys are dicks he's really not that bad. i think he's good actually. not the greatest but he could be with practice. give a kid a break man.

[mitchconn]

The only section that was impressive was the double bass, and the part right after that. Other than that it sounded like some kid

sat down and just started hitting everything.

I'm a drummer, so I do know what I'm talking about.

[IPLAYDRUMS1234]

i bet u think u know what ur talking about

[PKFRAY]

sucked..... BAD! really bad...

[ghostshelton]

That sucked I would rather take a crap on a snare durm than listen to that shit again

Have A Good One-Devin

[wtfholycrap]

Very good, very good :>

[HanKatarn]

Damn! The height of his sticks reminds me of Gene Krupa.

[pancho5592]

Yeah that was the guitar center in Hoover, Alabama. I go there all the time. Now go ahead you pathetic, lifeless fucks make hateful remarks to this post because you have nothing better to do than be douches and beat your dicks...

[ridder1705]

Actually it's in Overland Park KS ya DOUCHEBAG!

hahaha

idiot!

[Feightomeculdiat123]

awesome

[ludwigdrummer7]

aight not that grate but the double bass was grate

[drumsetmanperson1]

you spell great like this, great

[piebaldsir]

what a douche bag, in order to say "not the grate" (which is spelled great btw you ass nut) you need to be able to even play somthing comparable to it.. can you? didn't think so.

[theMushroom]

you are good, not virtuous! but good :)

[VDGfreak]

Amazing! great vid

[876543melissa]

wow

[dashburn777]

dude, good but i HAVE to show you all my uncle.

[heatherm33]

anyone who said he's shite is a moron i'd love to see you try and do that you unco retards!

[shimamaxx]

...crap. no groove. um shite, as they say.

[philmeissner438]

awesome!!

[tokoolforskoolsambo]

the mixture of different rutiments was intense you did a great job> and the bass was inpressive pretty good! :)

[mattasspirate]

not bad...the double kickin with selective rudiments were nice...some parts a little rusty...but he was probably thinking. "yup I have to do a drum solo in front of this people...yay...here i go."

[mdrummanWS]

I sense some billy cobham mixed with john bonham and Jason Bittner influences. It was a nice display of speed and accents. Good job

[HardcoredrummerCody]

pretty cool, should of had some sold beats, mabey some of those complicating ones..then it would of been fuckin tiight, nice leg work tho.....its not that hard! nice job.

[slapshot4151]

i like the massive double bass part at abou 1:20 prety sweet. i wish i could play the drums.

[FTK1423]

how can you people call this shit? he's probably alot better than you im a good drummer and he's better than i am.

[porkypker27]

ur gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay

[riderdragon7]

[sn3wman1707]

i thought it was good

[defender700]

[bwalls75]

[MMMillar]

I think you're a pretty good drummer but judged simply as a solo this sucks

[saosinissik]

[riderdragon7]

[FTK1423]

[McCrazy1011]

is this at a guitar center?

[metehanrex]

bad bad bad

[pq222333]

awesome solo man..

[overtime2005]

Let's make some noise!

[KunisakeRM]

i agree with Trikateros, who cares if people think they can play better, drums are dtums and no matter how they may be played all drummers should be respected for their style

[babybearadam]

This is Great!

If your guys think you can do any better than I encourage you to post some of your own so we can judge them too!

[Trikarteros]

Don't listen to any of those mean (supposed to be)drummers. You got it.

Way to go and nice try man!

[MusicForLife83]

come on, im 14 and i can play faster, with better timing, beats/fills that sound better, and was this improvising? if so, you need to practise improvising, i can also do that better, lol, >:}

[mafioso1313]

u suck dude kid shit basic u should be embarresed in front of them

[cosmookramer]

Sorry Dan, but you should be embarrassed to post this publicly. You need some serious time with a practice pad. Good Luck.

[D4RX1D3]

wow i guess people actually found it a sport to go to videos and complain lol, overall great job man ^^

[IRIDETRIALS]

WTF

[XnormaXjean]

how long long have been playing because it shows

[kummi90]

it was good! but not crazy-good

[venomthrash13]

hes pretty good, his face is hilarious lol.

[jdrockmaster]

little boring

little sloppy

and kinda bad for your age

that sounds like a 14 year old

[bubbyadubbya]

shut up im 14 lol

[advennable]

Too fast for him, his rythim is WAY off, and he is boring the audience..... He dan queer---Switch it up some next time so the audence isnt being put to sleep!!

[SasukaeGirl]

i love does any one wanna be my friend coz i only have about two

[DARTteamGOALIE]

good, but definitely not even close to the myriads of other crazy drummers on you tube

[Newkid4000]

dude he really sucks

[omerikou]

i play drums, but i havent ever tried that fast lol

[tamadrummer21]

Just bust out in guitar center you show off, nothing that spectacular though. The whole solo was pretty much in constant 16th notes.

[ChrisDrumz71]

Really good. Anyone who says otherwise is just hating on you.

[leondark123]

pretty lame solo. All he did was play 16th notes with no style. A little double bass was added, but it wasn't like it was anything tough to play. You could tell that HE thought he was good though.

[spankylesquirrel]

Guitar center @ 14th?

[woodknighty]

he shouldnt move his arms that much, he'll get tired to quickly

[alicecoop9009]

in the words of borat, "very nice" :p nice playing though

[maxxzildjian]

damn that double base is crazy

[owlofwarwick]

Pretty good.

[JasonBonitati]

spectacular!

[stevepozz]

Lots of single notes! Lame!

[tonissoots]

Nice

[FatalityXema]

he's not THAT good >_>

[geostigma64]

well i have to say that was pretty impressive and i respect you as a fellow drummer.

i definitely have to agree that at 1:20 it started to get really sic.

nice man.

[natenoooob]

the part at 1:20 is sick lol nice man i jus started the drums

[pheksta]

sounds ok alot of single notes

[13foxracer]

i like rythm more than noise

[dlllucas]

finally, someone with some sense, it's not about how loud you can play or how many cymbals you can or how bad you can't keep a tempo.

[loutopdrummer]

wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow you can hit everything at 16th notes

o waite that crap

[CrazedMachine]

yeah you guys are fucking stupid.

"I'm better than that" dudes stfu, you dont know anything. Good Job man.

[peterhamilrules]

man this guy ain't that great, anyone can work up a sweet double bass style you need to work on the hands. remember this name everyone DAN REIFSTECK!! will one day be the best drummer of all time just wait.

-Peace

[se4821]

i could do better

[XaustinXpX]

yah... he wasntusing the double pedals that muchh just basically the whole time

[toenailsmcgee]

kinda lame.

[blacktoothgrin14]

fuck you its lame, best fuckin solo ive seen in a while!!!

[kimpax]

hmmm i prefer on beats not spead bro..

[xBlubb182x]

right you are!

[ohohcoroner]

i like how everyone just goes on about how they're better and this and that instead of just enjoying the video, and since none of you have videos PROVING you're better, i will have to believe you're fronting until proven otherwise.

[wasabi222]

amen to that, there are always to many people just getting pissed if someone is doing something really good, better then they could ever do. this dude rocks!

[xwhenyouweregone]

if he had a double bass he wasn't using it much

[blacktoothgrin14]

are you a fuckin idiot? you didnt hear the double bass, like all the time!?!?

[xwhenyouweregone]

if you's haven't realized he wasn't using a double bass

[Ptowndrum]

yes he is

[deano26612]

wtf dude... didnt u hear the double round the 1:20 region.. dum ass.. listen again he was doing 1 16th beats

[rootbeerazor]

yes he is........

[Scarbak123]

i like 1:22 the best man

[legoflamb504]

are you deaf or what? he's playing really complex fast beats with tonnes of fills. Like mastodon or something.....

[Emobabesarah23]

that was pretty crazy his consistancy was great

[fofohusky]

I sorta looked speed up

[marcusmichelsen]

i wonder if these guys can groove somtimes i meen fills and licks are great but wuts up with just playin a groove???

[Jimbomiles]

Thank you. Somebody who agrees. I would be much more impressed if he did a load of complex beats with those kind of fills. This is mostly free time, it takes a whole different kind of quality to play a groove at a set pace.

[patdrumm]

nice double bass

[jdj0096]

I like your snare work. That's what I like best about this video!

[blastbeator]

is it a yamaha tour serie?

[klwarhawkshockey]

not bad

[e0n2624]

Well, you can play double-bass, but can u groove..? Almost everybody can make noise with a drum-set.. ^^

[nilefan4life]

I cant really hear a good fucking beat man........its alright

[Soul13Reaver]

1 out of 100

[absadrums]

huuummm who win??? you??...naaaahhh 6 place!

[WindDraken]

if this is the GC drum Off for last year? and yea its good and all but you just need to relax heh. there not looking for how fast you play but more of grooving and technicality. all that fast stuff is good for fill ins to next grooves. i learned that the hard way when doing these competitions. i ended in second in store finals boo. but yea keep it up and you can go all the way. hopefully ill see ya this year heh.

[K3RooneyK3]

Ok well... First of all... Did you win?

If not...

Second of all... I WANNA SEE THE VIDEO OF THE GUY THAT BEAT YOU!

THAT WAS BAD ASS MAN!!

[Bullsfan9820]

[russianfuger]

OOOOOOH RIGHT! lol

[chrislportnoy]

[danag1115]
