Solitary Glen covers Stryper's More Than A Man

[wolfblade66]

awesome!

[armortron]

who else on youtube plays drums along to some bad ass music like you do? Especially with a set up like you have? :D Awesome job man.

[The007lourens007]

loco d++++++ afff!!!!!!

[KathyaBF8]

Yeah Yeah! Rock on!

[4x12]

BTW, I checked out Stryper back in Nov 2009, and the way Robert plays this one is a little different now... he puts in a lot more double bass around in some sections around the 2:43 and 3:06 sounds heavy as hell!!

[4x12]

Good job dude!

[ricardowildchild]

Good job ! baita batera heim !??!?! se deu pra caralho... Regards from Brazil !

[Hi456ify]

Is it a pearl Master series 10 piece?

Totally wicked in every performance!!

It seems this guy just has the "feel"...whether he plays DT, Van Halen or the best of the best, STRYPER, doesn't matter!!

[gspot27]

@zimbalist Thank you!! I very much appreciate it!

[MicahTheBeast]

Man, I've been enjoying watching all your Stryper covers... great stuff dude!

[bobcaldwellrocks]

Nice Job brother,very enjoyable you are a gifted drummer! and this is my favorite song!-Thank you!

[riggs44r]

WOW!!!!!!!! From 4:05 on is some of the best playing I have ever seen or heard! BRAVO!!!

[gspot27]

Thank you!

[joejoefireguy]

Dude,,,along with you playing right on the money,,,,your mix is great. So many people post stuff on here and you cant hear them or the cd is over powering the recording. Your drums a just touch higher than the cd,,,,but thats what you want. To just hear the cd and you,,,,,,what is the volume mix you have set for the recordings?

[gspot27]

Thank you! It's really hard to say what the volume setting is. It's different with each video because of how loud I actually played, the loudness of the original track and put those factors together and it makes many possibilities on the mix. Basically, I just listen to the mix and fine tune it until I am satisfied. Sometimes, as with this video, I take the audio from the video and import it into Audacity, compress and eq it and then add the backing track to it.

[joejoefireguy]

Or,,do the Stryper Peace Of Mind cover,,,,they do it a little faster,,,,,that would be cool...

[joejoefireguy]

Cool,,,do Loving You

[9pt9]

Totally caught a rim shot at 2:13. Totally Needs a redo.

[gspot27]

LOL

[FullForce1972]

0pt9 please link us to some of your perfect videos troll

[9pt9]

Fullforce- I'm just sayin I don't be hittin no rims or nuthin. You hurt my feelings:(

[gspot27]

And I honestly don't hear a rim flubb where you are talking about. It happens but I don't hear what you are talkin' about.

[FullForce1972]

9pt9 will you please post your drumming videos. I would love to see someone play that is so perfect.

You are like a troll in all of glenn's videos. Go get back under your bridge.

[9pt9]

FullFOrce: If I ever caught a rim on a drum video I'd just redo it. Rim shots r unacceptable. That's all I'm saying. My bridge is the best by the way.

[gspot27]

Dude, I appreciate you defending me but 9pt9 is just kidding. Trust me. Thank you!

[robatuta]

you should try to play songs from "murder by pride'

[LuisSlash]

Amazing!...please if you can try to put the video of IN GOD WE TRUST

[FullForce1972]

I want to see your foot/pedal work while playing that song.

[Mokka300]

youre a great drummer, you really inspire me:-) god bless you:D

[Wiiman895]

I'm thinking about buying a drum kit. What would be a good kit for a beginner?

[hyrael2]

Go on sonor site or any drum site like pearl mapex or wutever and check it out. Or go on real drum shop.

[ByHisStrypes]

Another great job! This my favorite song! One of thier fastest!

[gspot27]

Thank you!

[bryce1pwnz]

Damn, your good, i used to drum but i quit my parents were pushing it too much.

[gspot27]

Thanks man! You should not have quit. You may regret it someday. Do it to gain knowledge and broaden your mind if not for that, do it for fun. Drumming is some of the most fun I've had all my life.

[SystematicChaos08]

dude you should start again and if your parents do that again then just tell them that you just wanna do it for fun

[oxcar00]

hey man your drums set how many cost ? in dolars ?

[gspot27]

I really don't know because it was purchased over many many years. If you were to go buy a Pearl Masters Premium Birch, it would cost you between $3500-4000 for the shells, another $1000 or so for the hardware and cymbals would run you, well, I'm not sure, you can find that out by shopping current 2002, Signature and Alpha cymbal prices.

[readme60]

i never got the point of having two bass drums. y dont you just have one bass drum and have a double bass pedal?

[LoneSaiyan115]

the double bass dosent have as clean of a glide as two seperate single pedals.... some ppl are really anal about how responsive a pedal is and perfer two single pedals

[gspot27]

Well, if you check ALL of my other videos, you'll notice I use a double pedal on a single kick. There is a pretty big difference between the two. Two kicks gives you that bottom end on the left side of you. Double pedals (most of them) have some drag that you get used to. It's really just a matter of preference and what you can afford.

[zlalaman2]

but doesn't the newest pearl double pedal (i think it is called the demon pedal? or the eliminator. i forgot)

have no drag?

[gspot27]

Yes! It has no drag. I've tested it out and it is an amazing pedal. But it's still not the same feeling and sound of two kick drums. Trust me.

[Daviidho]

I also want a drum kit at my home, but I can't have one because of the loud sound it makes, I don't really want an electric drumkit because I don't like it's sounds..

[salvadorcatherine]

YEAHHH GREAATTT BASSS 5 STARS FOR YOU

[gspot27]

THNXXX!!!

[11NeMaTz11]

is that other bass drum new, first time I see it, you always played double bass pedal..?

[tecna64]

he used to have a single bass with double pedals on it but now he got a different rig and more cymbals haha, i learned alot from this guy's video's

[gspot27]

Yeah, what tecna64 said.

I actually started with two kick drums way back in the late 80's when I got a new kit for my birthday, I combined the two kits and started playing double bass. Then I went to a double pedal and never looked back. I've had these two kicks for a long time and I just decided to put them back together again.

[santaslittleelf62]

i still cant get over ur awesome drumset

[gspot27]

Thank you!

[iteletnap]

great work as always :)

if you put som mics, your drums would sound like hell :) try it if you can

[gspot27]

Thanks man! My Paypal account is always open for donations for mics and a mixer. LOL

[ch1ck3n08]

damn ur kit looks even better now :o would love to see the front with the 2nd bass!

[gspot27]

Thanks! Yeah, I need to do a new "building the kit" video and I will soon.

[REEDSBUD]

Never get tired of watching you play bro!!! Mahalo for spinning the cam around your rig as well!!!

[gspot27]

Thank you very much!

[drummerboy6666]

is that a wuhan on a splash yo make max stax

[gspot27]

No. That is a 2000 Series 16" Mellow China on the bottom with a cut down Sound Formula 16" Full Crash, now 13.75". There's a 6" Accent cymbal on top of all of that.

[proto35]

cymbal collection seems to have grown

[gspot27]

Yeah, a little. :)

[northlander30]

Awesome as always Glen! Have you tried any of the new Stryper yet? Learn 4 Leaf clover and I will record the guitar and maybe we can have a compilation video.

[gspot27]

Thank you!

No, I haven't really listened to it yet. I like the music but I have a little bit of an issue that Rob did not play on it, for whatever reason, I understand that but to me it just isn't the same. I will probably feel differently about it after I see them on tour this year and see Rob playing them.

[Unrated48]

I didnt even listen to Stryper yet but i said to myself '' hey if gspot27 covers it it must be good.. '' i gave it a go and i think it sounds like Iron maiden , ive saw them live and it was good so i like stryper now :D

[zlalaman2]

did you get another splash and another bass drum?

[gspot27]

I did get another splash and the cup chime, and visions cup chime. The other kick drum was not being used. I customized my rack so that I could fit them both under the front of the rack.

[Unrated48]

Damn it looks so fun to play like u rofl im a beginner at drumming and sometime when i just realise a nice fill im feeling so good lol and u do like.. all ur songs perfectly or almost :O

[gspot27]

Thanks man! Just keep practicing everyday, play along with your favorite music. Play with other musicians as much as you can. You'll get there.

[vespzor]

You did it again mate- boy i wish i could have /or play on a drumset like yours..that would be a dream for me. keep posting those movies! always fun to watch'

regards

[Unrated48]

Would be a dream for any1.. I mean for those that don,t already have talent and a kit like that :) But i bet if id have all that talent id buy one like this too :)

[topdawg567]

KICK ASS!!!!!!!

[gspot27]

THANK YOU!

[Godsmack1031]
