Drumming Memphis Will Be Laid To Waste

[plaidrokr1080]

watch ur time...

ur beats get a bit wobbly sometimes

otherwise nice chops and setup

[JohnsGotVideos]

I need a new video.

[neenamar]

you might buy urself a metronome?

[JohnsGotVideos]

Memphis was recorded live without a click track so it changes tempo a few times. Makes it hard to play with.

[AHillFL]

u look so psyched to be playing this song right now.... Not

[UpTheIronsForever07]

Do you recomend the snare? i play alot of classic metal,new metal,funk and some screamo. and im looking to buy a new snare.

[demian7979]

you look like blur's singer

[Skull0nFire]

i love that feckin snare i got it too

buy it if you havnt its fuckin awsome value for money..seriously

[turtlepants2]

haha yea chaserrr ftw!!!! yup, he made it possible for me to learn teg easilty =)

[drummeryan337]

I don't know the song, but it seemed like you really murdered the song. I think your timing was off and it seemed as if you were just banging on those crashes.

[nzddkq]

this is pretty normal, to get off time. the reason is, you have to focus to much on the timming, cause it's off, just like everyone else said.  I have been playing drums for 20 years. metronomes are the key to tight playing, everything else will fall into place, like nailing that chamber double that you are making a good attempt at. play with a metronome for a year straight everytime you practice for at least 15 minutes and see what happens! the best drummers in the world will say the same

[DevinCarmichael]

check out chaserrrr his video helped me learn it.

[PaulieG42]

yeah me too. i learned it in like a week cuz of him.

thanks chaserrr!

[gdrummerg]

you completely murdered that that...

im pretty sure you didnt play an actual fill from the entire song, even the triplets on the hi hat and stuff coming into the bridge.

and the double bass needs alot of work, keep it tight bro, work with a metronome or something, each note is suppose to be nice and even, in volume and time.

im not trying to bash, just constructive criticism.

work some paradiddles with your hands and feet, LRLL RLRR

[snow0and0sugar]

indeed, i agree w/ u, he totally killed it!

[JoeyJordisonGirl]

work on your timing, then you gonna be pretty good...drummergirl by myself

[sgtpeppers24]

that kit is way better than u are

[greengroachers14]

work with ur timing,it was pretty sloppy.Practice more,no fence but i think u don't deserve that kit at all

[JohnsGotVideos]

hah none taken...this video is mad old and i hadn't played for a month or so before it. hadn't warmed up either. i'm a lot better now. i need to get another video up.

[greengroachers14]

it's great to hear:)

[tcbabiak]

in all honesty you were off beat a couple times. constructive critism

[0oPearlDrumo0]

Nice! But wear earphones, if you don't you can deaf.:(

[JohnsGotVideos]

i do! no worries.

[Ecks82589]

Not how it's really played, but it's still good. I like the fills and touch you put on the song. It sounds good.

[RyanJoshNewsNetwork]

The [RJNN EMPIRE] COPYRIGHTS THIS VIDEO!! Thats right Johnny! :)

[davidward123]

hey man what cams are you using on your eliminators?

[JohnsGotVideos]

hey, right now i'm using the black ones...i don't remember which i was using in the video. it was probably the same.

[davidward123]

awsome man, Im using red currently, thanks!

good job too bro!

[sketchingpencils]

This is probably going to sound stupid.. but what are eliminators? I have no idea.

[davidward123]

No problem dude lol. They are the Pearl Eliminator Pedals, he is using the double one in this video and we were discussing the different "cams" you can use which are to change your playing style and such, only avalible with pearls pedals ;D

[sketchingpencils]

cheers man

[amped409]

Hey! Hey! If you want to really learn how to play Memphis Will Be Laid To Waste, look up Chaserrr! He plays this song with a phenomenal setup and amazing technique. Not to sound critical, but I think he is by far the overall best drummer I have seen thus far performing this type of music and more. Check it out!

[YOUFIXXXER]

F*Ck! DUDE ITS REALY LULEZZZ!!!! 5/5!

Cymbals - perfectly souds!

Keep it up dude! /-))

[rdrummer1]

i guess you played to it but you played all the wrong things so...

[ChrisRocks25]

chads snare sounds pretty  good

[MarijuanaPaint]

yeah our timing was wayyy off, you kept having to slow down or speed up, work on that.

[JohnsGotVideos]

yeah...i know it is. the problem is i could hardly hear the music and the song actually changes tempo. so hearing the tempo change was hard. i was really only fooling around when i filmed this. it wasn't meant to be critiqued but i guess that's what i get for putting it on the internet.

[chyeahbrahh]

you played the breakdown wrong and your timing sucks

[Mcguiver645]

yo watch Chasser video of this song....he does it very well cuz you are doing something this totally that aren't even in the song.

[goalieshiv]

Awesome. Check mine out.

[mtchnelson]

Just watch Chserr's Video then youlll see what it is supposed to like like when you play it correctly...Im not saying your bad just watch it then re record this song and I bet you do 10 times better

[DiatribeMusic]

your not a bad drummer but youre not playing anything close to what Daniel Davison plays for that song.

[beaniedeanie]

nice playing :) i don't thinks its bad

[bobthediscoking]

I would really consider getting a better snare.

Its not terrible

Buts its really not suited for this type of music.

[therealnormajean]

i've heard worse, all in all...not bad,kid, not bad. want a job? well then....stand in the unemployment line...good luck

[AlexandreSchwarz]

When you play in a kit like that, people can say only 2 things:

1 - Holy shit, that guy plays a lot!

or

2 - WTF, he doesn't deserve that, no way!

I say you should practice A LOT before getting a pro kit like that one...

[bloodrose50]

i want to punch your face in, he does realy decently, he just messed up the first switch in the begining, he keeps a fine beat. and can play the song almost spot on shut the fuck up faggot

[sr10]

Holy shit. I've found my long lost twin. and we're both drummers. effing nuts.

[NevermindQuinten]

OMG you got the same kit set-up as Chad smith OMG !! I like your vid man!

[percussionman07]

norma jean is my favorite band

u did awesome!

[NackaDrummer]

First of all, you´re not holding a steady beat.... you´re way of sometimes. Second your double bass could need a bit more work.

Except for that you did good!

[tanatoboy]

you drum set is too much for a Beginner drummer......practice men!!!!!

[Vanillacoogie]

would you reccomend the chad smith snare??

[JohnsGotVideos]

idk...it's hard for me to say really because i haven't played many different snares but what i can say is that it is a very sharp, ringy snare. i would suggest playing one before you buy it.

[LOCO726]

luv the ending jam!!!! kick ass

[whoreslutroyalty]

ehh fuck all them haters

urr goood!!!!!!!

and hott haha

[skateanddrum101]

your set kicks ass

[george5030]

dude u have my wish dream set

[nigniging2323]

that was amazing... putting ur own twist on things is always good.. makes it yours

i love it and have been trying to play it just like that lol

[bcotd]

your technique could do with some working on.

try and focusing on using your wrists and fingers when you are playing, this will help you so much.

[chihuahuaboy7]

idk...

[chihuahuaboy7]

dude...no offense but thats not how the song is played...but your an awesome drummer

[JohnsGotVideos]

yeah i know. if i really wanted to i could play it exactly how daniel plays it on the cd but why would i want to?

[chiodosfan4life]

Holy shit. That was fucking amazing... I wish I was that good...

[pbtomass]

yeah!

[xstevecorex]

fucking amazing =]

[mrwetback]

awesome, my friend.
