@Nitram916 Believe me, I've thought about it...and would love to. It seems so many people have already done them, though...and Warner Brothers picks and chooses people they want to screw over and remove their videos. But thanks for the recommendations!
Hey! Thank you very much. I really appreciate your encouraging words. I'm actually in a band called Ivanrest right now and we are working on our second album. There are a handful of videos in my profile if you're interested. Take care.
indeed it is a portnoy stack! They sound awesome. I'm glad you asked...I'm posting a drum cover for Atomship - Withered tonight. It is a good song though I doubt anyone knows it.
Full time job! But seriously, I have been playing for over 11 years. Mowing lawns and working has allowed me to buy stuff piece by piece. I don't drink, so that saves a ton of money right there... So it's not like I bought it all at once.
Dude...ok the cover was kinda..so so for the song. But your fills overall are brilliant.. I just played over you..playing over the song and it just gave me so many ideas because your placement is so different. So thanks for the cover. Totally awesome. Do you play in a band?
You are welcome. Thank you for the feedback. I really appreciate your comment. I do just try to impart my style into everything I play....it's nothing too technical...I just want to feel the music and give it a good backbone.
I am in a band. It's called Ivanrest. We've got 4 videos in my profile and a whole upcoming CD with some really cool songs on it...check it out. Thanks!
Did u play it right, absolutely, there's no wrong way to play it, unless you were out of time, which u weren't. I don't wanna hear the original, I wanna hear your interpretation, other drumming ideas that would fit well within this song.
Man you have that just right there: "Did I play it "right?" No. Did I have fun with it? Yes." I myself just somehow love to play LP. It's so energetic and just much fun. Very nice cover, thumbs up!
as you are' I have seen your new video, it is always fantastic very good and the sound is very beautiful... I like above all the small snare that a very appropriate sound does for the song of the linkin park;
good choice the song of linkin;
continuous always so,
good pursuance of I study and to play, good luck for your group!
heyy bill!!! its been forever since we have talked! loveeee this cover! dont like the song or band but love the cover!! your set is sooo amazing ! i wish mine sounded like yours!! <3!
Hey Keith! Good to hear from you. Thanks for the comment. I will try to keep at least one video a month if I can. Yep, band's video should be released as a Thanksgiving present for anyone. I'm looking forward to it. Talk to you later!
Hey Ken! I am doing well, thank you. How are you? Cold? Glad you liked the double bass parts...I do have to mix the kick with a little more attack to cut through the mix better. I try to avoid mudiness that way when I'm playing over top of other songs. It sounds ok... talk to you later!
hey thanks a lot! drum mics start at $200-$300 for a package deal and you can go anywhere from there. For starters I'd recommend an SM57 for the snare, a Beta 52 for the kick and an NT2 for an overhead (stereo mic). You'll have 4 channels and you can always add more mics later!
Awesome cover Wildbill. I love the mic levels and the tuning. They're perfect. It's obvious you're having fun which is why I'll sometimes loose track of time and play for hours. Anyway, the new video is awesome, and keep them coming. Have a great day.
I agree with rsm76, 1.30 was sweet. Kick/toms is pretty much nailed, sounds great. Your picclo is still my fav snare, although that(gadd?) one sounded ok this track.
Eric, as always, good to hear from you and thank you for the kind words! I get a lot of requests to make a video showing how I record the drums, so I think I'm going to make one very similar to yours. I thought your explanation was very thorough. Until then...take care!
Real nice stuff this time! I particularly enjoyed the playing at about 1:30 or so. And for anyone that thinks you have to play it like the record, what this video again!
Awesome kit
Awesome song
Awesome sound
Awesome cover!
