wow what a jerk, "pathetic"?...I love how on the internet lets chair jockeys that would never say a thing if you could get them by the throat grow a couple, geez, but rat own, he's already got his brain wired, I bet he'll be giving you a run for your money soon Dad ;)
Adults like trecoolmania are unimpressed and frustrated by the idea that even a child can learn good timing and technique, to the point where they'll just recognize it as 'unreal and pathetic".
It's all good Tre, maybe Rock Band for lame-box is more your speed.
Your a great Dad!I'm not just talking drums,Just being involved,To people like me and you,its just normal to be involved with our kids,But to the people that doesnt get involved,This is what parents do! And to TRECOOLMANIA,STFU,LOOSER!
@sephphy Thats the downfall to success. Every great thinker in history lost everything over pussy. Just let him have fun. I really haven't had fun since pussy! LOL!
from a young age i see! i love your videos, theyre so educational, and my drumming carrer has grown so much due to learning triplets from you, thank you so much. im now in the most succesful band at my school, and we have a battle of the bands competion, including a short drum solo im preforming with techniques i have learnt from you. cheers van
Hahahahaha! SO AWESOME! Huge smile on my face... You must be so proud. And you havent even helped him yet? this is amazing. He was in the pocket and never left it. Thats great man. You got quite the piece of clay to help mold there. Bravo!
:L i like how when he hits the crash at the end, when hes finished he just neatly puts the sticks back on the snare. very good, i dont know anyone that young who can play drums with rhythm like that!
i started when i was 3. but of course by the time i was his age i still wasn't that good haha. But i'm 13 now and i consider myself in general a good drummer!
i know its ment to be a compliment to this kid, but perhaps you thinking that way is STILL the reason why you havent gotten any better ;)= just saying :P im sure you can do it if you put your mind into it.
yeah man i get what your saying.....i am actually progressing pretty fast tho and usually evertime i practice i learn something new but what i meant is that if i started that young by now i would have the skill that only comes with years of experience.
When you put it that way, it sounds different from what you said the first time, and then i must add that i agree with you! Its good to hear that youre progressing fast and that your learning something new every time! thats the way its supposed to be you know ;) Cheers!
Btw, i didnt realise that this kid was mr. Vanz kid. hehehe Kewel
Yeah, I can understand that. When they're that young I guess you just let them do their own thing on the set, until they get older. He's definitely got the musical genes from you though!
Man I loved this. I love seeing young drummer layin it down, and your son is truly laying down, his timing was great, he just did an excellent job man, congrats to you and your son.
in the end, although i saw the video was about to end, i wanted you to just go all out on the drums infront of the kids when you put ur leg on the stool.
i also thought you were pretty tall 6'3 or something.
Sir, you have my utmost respect for having your child learn an instrument at such a young age. He's gonna be an AMAZING drummer. And seems to already be really good for his age.
nice Randy, my son's in 2nd grade and been taking lessons for 6 mos. now. he fills in on Wed nites at church, but i can't seem to get him to follow thru w/ his fills like your son. he does great at home, but freaks when it's time to really do it
Really cool how you contribute to the community like that, and how you introduce kids to drumming and everything.
I bet he'll be one heck of a drummer when he becomes a teen.
Can't help but think that if any other person would have posted this the kid would get flamed on =/ Which is a shame because talent like this should be supported. Keep them coming Mr van Patten!
The best part is... I have taught him nothing. He has done all of this on his own. I am about to start working with him. 7 yrs old is a great age to start.
you are a pretty cool dad, you know your kid will be like you
