You are a great drummer, Xavier! Your band is really good, too. You guys have a lot of potential, and when you put out your album, I will definitely buy it.

[TBSfAn707]

[HenriqueInrotulo]

Wrong hands!

[Blink182DudeRanch]

i prefer cobus now, dosnt seem as obnoxious x

[amedeo24]

@Blink182DudeRanch really? I find him way more obnoxious. Cobus can be because he's that good but I find it annoying sometimes when he gets show offy

[Blink182DudeRanch]

@iceheadstudios how anal

[FrankDrums92]

he didn't play the chorus right but everything else was amazingg

[Zodiacdrummer]

??what was wrong at the chorus?? I think all was okay!

[FrankDrums92]

@Zodiacdrummer he went back and forth between snare and hitting the tom twice, but if you listen to the real song (or at least the version i have) there's a snare roll in there. im not saying it isn't good lol i was pointing it out

[Zodiacdrummer]

oh yes I know what you mean!!!!

Yeah this part isn't in his cover but it is still a great one!!!

first i always forgott to play that part but know i know it!!!:D:D

[FrankDrums92]

agreed haha. check out my cover if you want, it's in there ;p

[sizefe65]

hey you are the drummer of wilbasound, your music is really nice, im mexican and hear you have a new fan of wilbasound

[Rooobko]

nice man ;)

[drummerboyisme]

1.15 to 1,24 is supossed to be played on the floortom but other than that you are perfect

[Zodiacdrummer]

No man he played it right.You HAVE TO play it on the ride cymbal.

[mouldy8]

t be honest it dont matter live travis plays on the floor tom on the album he plays on the ride

[screwyoufilms]

@drummerboyisme Live travis plays it on the floor but on the recording its the hihat ;)

[screwyoufilms]

@drummerboyisme Ride not hihat :p

[ALIENATOR991]

@drummerboyisme No you are supposed to play that part on the ride cymbal, in the live version Travis plays it on the floor tom. I just I'd point that out :)

[bayomba95]

what drumkit is that one? i know pearl but what series??

[AVAtor182]

masters premium

[Zodiacdrummer]

It is an Ocean Sparkle Pearl Masters Custom MMX!!!

[DrummingVirtuoso1701]

Spin by Taking Back Sunday, nice opening song man! Good job too!

[gascan56]

[drumpounder778]

i likee thee snaree alott gaahh drool

[xdougierocksmyworldx]

wow v. good drumming mate, and yeh also very fast hi hat, its kinda scary lol XD well done

[hallowiegez]

how did you train the hi hat speed its too fast for me right now =(

[MagicMan113]

Just hang in there and stick with it. It will come naturally once you build the endurance and strength.

[jacoe99]

Any tips? :S :S

This song is no sweat for me, except for that hi-hat part..absolutely insane, especially considering this Xavbarker guy is using all wrist it seems..that seems nigh impossible.

[asd848]

i wanna play drums but ill never be able to afford a set....you need strenght for fast drumming, i never played but i can move my wrist that fast with no problem.

[jaydentyau]

its not the same when playing on a real drum set

[Mdrumming]

it's all technique dude just start.. buy something cheap and start working on it.. you can see how this dude bearly moves when he's playing fast stuff.. that's because he uses the rebound and the strength in his fingers..

[swtguy5113]

i started drumming with blink covers and i thought that was something very simple. All my friends and family are impressed but i feel like im not doing anything special

[tokenchoke311]

put up a video, then you will know just how good you are...or not...

[Mdrumming]

i think i can speak for the rest of the world when i say fuck you.

[PRTproductions]

omg fast hihat

[LenniLeini]

Awesome

[RTSLAVE]

well done my friend, 5 stars from me.

[SiCDRuMmA]

[Meinlcore]

[AnBUA12]

i love ur kit its awsome and u are awsome lol :)

[jaydentyau]

btw fuck miley syrus and the jonas brothers, they represent a bad america

[Omguranoob1]

affirmative

[stagecustomfan]

@malteser2804 omg u even have a foreign accent in text lol (im english i speak normal :D)

[spparkie1]

@jaydentyau you forgot justin bieber

[jaydentyau]

the reason why america is so hated was because of the idiot bush, he completely fucked us and sent off the wrong message, he pissed off the wrong people frucked with our economy and now we are in a bad crisis, he started war where we had no buisness start, he gave america such a ruthless look, not all of us are bad, just a fair few along with bush

[SOxBExNOxFEAR]

Arguing with or about politics is like winning the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded.

[jaydentyau]

ur original

[SOxBExNOxFEAR]

Word.

[DarkNatasX]

Lawl. People have known that joke for Years. Everyone knows it now.

[SOxBExNOxFEAR]

So?

[DarkNatasX]

Its not funny anymore.

[SOxBExNOxFEAR]

So?

[DarkNatasX]

Do what? Got nothing to say? Good for you'

[SOxBExNOxFEAR]

Huh?

[Jramsoebhag]

i dont

[metsportslete241]

by posting this exact comment you are proving my point, shut the fuck up and watch good drumming. Youtube does not need a political discussion under every fucking video.

[jaydentyau]

it isnt political, im trying to defend our contrie, im not trying to sound like a proud republican, im not gonna let every foreigner insult when they dont know shit about us

[metsportslete241]

i searched on youtube for a a drum cover of Aliens exist, but from looking at the text comments i would have to say that this is a forum about the failures of the internet community to create a valid, RELEVANT statement about the video at hand.  Great cover btw.

[jaydentyau]

yea i drum too, i agree with alot of what your saying, but cmon, we are not dumb countrie, we have dumb people in our countrie but when you criticise AMERICA you are insulting everyone in AMERICA

[jaydentyau]

to get into the war to save, you people from getting bombed by the nazis everyday, if we hadnt got into the war, if we had just sat back and watched europe would have been so fucked, we are not the dumbest country in the world, you are a fucking retard if you believe we are, you have no problem going on our websites, using our resources, but you criticize all you want, we are the most productive country in the world

[fawkes1224]

....umm, hooray world. nice cover! even better batman logo t-shirt.

[jaydentyau]

yea that person is quite retarted for thinking that but i am an american who has lived in france and been to many other countries and experienced other cultures, sure you could say america are a bunch of dumb rednecks, but our president is black? you say all we want to do is cause war but we saved your asses in ww2? america has some dumb ignorant fucking people but so does everywhere, i am [orud to be american, and btw if your gonna criticize america, we invented youtube

[HahNgorilla]

great cover man,keep up the amazing work

best cover ive seen so far man!

[MrNecriod]

first time listing to this song prob sounds the sme cuase hes good

[KvSwooo]

i think america is awesome .... im australian

[360flip1995]

great dude!

[182LTJ]

i'm sorry, but what does America have to do with this guy playing a blink-182 song? and why is it that people from other countries have to talk shit about America? we don't go around about how those god damn Koreans are fucking psychos, and how the British people need to shut the fuck up about how much better and refined they are. we keep that to ourselves. ignorant asshole.

by the way, this is a good cover (:

[182LTJ]

yes i do as a matter of fact. but to be honest i don't give a flying fuck about America, and I live in America. I'm just saying it seems like Europeans always look down at Americans like we're all a bunch of neanderthals, which a good majority of Americans are, but not all. I see what you mean though.

[HalfAGallen]

@182LTJ right on :) we're all humans with faults anyway!

[angelbaby810]

Okay first of all... screw you! You only hear what's on the news about America. Hysterical? See you call America ignorant and arrogant, when really, you need to go look in a fucking mirror. Every country on earth huh? I bet you can't even NAME all the countries in America. So here's some advice you: Don't talk shit about other countries EXPECIALLY if you don't even live there.

[danverinodude]

hahahahahaaaa im pretty sure that there arent any countries in america, they are called states rite?

[angelbaby810]

Oh my God! Yes they're called states, I made a freaking mistake!

[AlBassStar]

epic cover 5*

[fannypack311]

pretty stiff . instead of copying make your own style

[Markisflippinsweet]

A double bass pedal. Not two bass pedals.

[Markisflippinsweet]

I've honestly never seen him use one. He's fast on the pedals. You know nothing.

[Faabiobento182]

loool very good sucess for you Xav ^^

[hurricane0009]

hey im a guitarist i dunno shit haha

[DEzzzcheck]

You have unbelievable co-ordination between your hands,and also one mighty fast right hand....i think even travis plays crotchets rather than eights in the verse....could be wrong though

[Xavbarker]

Sorry man but I'm playing exactly what Travis plays on that one.....

[graffiodellanima]

Yes, in the intro Travis uses the double bassdrum shot..

[hurricane0009]

he does it all with a single kick look there isn't 2 mallets and watch his left foot and the high hats good job

[mikemo346]

i like how ur bass drum sounds

[P2thaH]

how do you do the hi hat that fast

[traQQua90]

Fucking great cover. I think he's the most accurate drummer in youtube

[igotmail25]

i think he puts too much bass in there in my opinion

[wengajenga]

i personally think that you play the bass drum better than travis, travis is still a ledgend tho

[blink182comeback2]

its the double bass pettle

[SOxBExNOxFEAR]

The epitome of epic, your covers are awesome.

[chazz0141]

what program do u use to make your videos?  nice drum!min

[stajnerbaer]

make a video of all your songs xDDD they are so goood

i play on drums too but not so bad.

joke you are the best drummer behind travis barker

[hahaohmy]

whats the song thats plaing in the beginning?

[kabelobob]

spin(taking back sunday)

;)

[Drummer4200]

I like the sound from your bassdrum :)

[pacodlux]

Haha, nice TB cymbal bag and cymbal holder.

[redblood762]

awesome best cover ever on drums for this song

[Mdecoy]

Very good except for the beginning. Like someone else said it's a double bass with the tom's together. Not a single bass and the tom's separate.

[mundmandrummer]

nooo. i mean, thats how i play it. but thats not technically right. travis doesnt use a double bass pedal

[jimmyH250]

neither does he??

[machismoPUNK222]

i no.. people say that on his vids and he doesnt.. on stay together for the kids he moves his foot from the front to back to make it faster in someparts

[ScottishDrummer1530]

it's called sliding >.> and its kinda hard.... lol

[loopdiloop89]

its very hard to do

[shelton24356]

its called heel to toe man

[PunkRocker90s]

the left foot opens the hi-hat he don't use double bass pedal

[blink182comeback2]

theres only one foot pettle for double bass

[mtp722]

holy shit.

best cover of this song on drums i've heard by far.

[nickonator1234]

how the fuck do you play insane 16th notes on the hats without your hand cramping cause that happens to me all the time

[xcantxbexsavedx2]

nice cover bro what china do you use?

[greenamon]

go under his youtube profile.

[ortixx]

i think you are the best... simply the best ...

[bunja3301]

Lol go figure. Isn't that one of the best? I can't do heal-toe very well on my pedal so I'm looking for a better one. My pedal is too small and the beat stick rears back and beats on my shin as much as it hits the bass drum lol.

[hstrohmeyer]

mine too lol

[OligoFriends]

Good job dood ! You're good...

[bunja3301]

Very nice, what kind of kick pedal are you using?

[538457142]

iron cobras

[simibieri]

Where did you bought this drum?

[AlainDelonge]

really good man!..

keep rockin'!

[AVABlinkDrWho10]

i dont know how anyone can rate any of your videos less than 5 stars

[prankTWO]

amazing

[sonnyboyrecords]

PRETTY NICE DUDE

[mynameistravisbarker]

what about the doublebeats with the bassdrum in the beginning ? ;)

[dsum41t]

yeah...five stars...maybe the drumming could be faster, but I understand it is an album version...GREAT

[stormchaser5399]

That was SICK!!! Awesome cover man. Best I thnk I am ever going to see of this song. You are a phenominal drummer. This is an extremely fast song, and to nail it 100% like that is amazing. Great job!

[moony123]

this song is so fast...

[prankTWO]

nice. very good.

[zztop12790]

hey xav do u have any interest in recording this one again with an over head view instead

[Xavbarker]
