Kieran Gaffney drum solo Dover Dock Rock 2009

[MeteorDrummer08]

i hate shit like this!!

nobody cares of really good drummer who aren't popular but if a little boy plays some easy old songs in a tv show everyone thinks he is good

[666TheRem666]

well this is shit

[eqsmooth]

This punk always plays the same old American 60's song by the hack band The Surfari's. Didn't we all learn this by age 14. It was fun beach music. Compare this simpleton to the prodigy and master of drums, Tony Royster at 12.

[BurntFaceMan]

uurrrrghh the sooouuunnnddddd!!!

[TheoHarveyMusic]

I know why people are rinsing him. I rinse him to myself all the time, because i am jealous that he had the balls to go onto T.V and play his heart out and give himself the huge opportunity he has given himself.

I know, he isnt AMAZING and seems he can only play one song, but thats the one he is famous for, so he plays it. Credit to him for being gutsy enough to go onto tv and do what he did. I bet he is good now though, because everyone improves in time!

Peace ~T

[eskimopopsch]

Wonderful audio quality.

[samcp12]

is this all the kid can play, he kinda sucks

[steffie420]

the kid is good...and was great on britain's got talent...2009 & 2010...

[cranium73]

Just to close this all up, I know there are better drummers out there and as stated in this lot of comments probably better at his age. I am a complete non educated person when it comes to drummers, I know Rick Allen is amazing but other than that, as said before, I just saw a kid playing a charity concert in Dover and thought he was pretty good. The ironic thing is, for all the negative comments, this video has had more hits than all my others put together!

[MrMrjack95]

i don't like

[DinoCorleone]

Anybody know what's the song's name?

[chuk520]

@DinoCorleone

Wipeout

A famous song of drum solo!

[random10133]

why is everyone slabbering about him if you dont like him dont watch him and then bitch about him because half of yous probably couldnt drum to save your life so just fuck off and stop being such hateful bastards

your so sad to come on and slabber about him shows you have nothing else to do

i think hes a talented drummer and he knows more songs watch his semi final and you would figure that out

[1996Dalli]

mmm kieran, is this the only thing you know how to play on the drums?

[foule58]

yes that's a cover all the drummers can do that as they are 12 or 74 years old !!!!

[tomahames]

I agree, this kid is shit! he is shockingly bad! and he is annoying as hell! watch him on Britains Got Talent....Just give up!

[drummerguy1231]

How does this have 20 likes? this kid sucks

[a7xjb96]

man that song i so fuckin easy and tbh he's not even talented any drummer tht goes on bgt to get famous is stupid do it the proper way by being in a band

[38Highbury]

dog shit

[brentlya11]

is this the only song this kid plays?

[AshSnook]

it offends me because of all the talented drummers in the world and this kid gets recognition because it looks like hes good cause of all the facial expressions he makes. frankly, hes embarrassing :/

[platynakrk]

why he always playing that crap -.-

[the12345joker]

@platynakrk Because he can't play !!

[drummaboyy97]

like they said this is a complete drum cover no solo 

[KittyChazzy]

It's still a solo actually.

He's playing a cover of a song solo.

A band could also cover a song, as could a duet.

So really, you just mugged yourself off.

[BBQwatchman]

I'm sorry who does this think he is? he is by far the worst drummer i have ever seen, in my life.

[KrossPoison1]

@BBQwatchman Oh yeah, cos I can see all your oh so amazing drum soloes on your youtube. Get a grip you jealous cunt, just cos he's better than you. I bet you don't even own a drum kit.

[BBQwatchman]

@KrossPoison1 LMAO, he is better than me? i'd like him to achieve grade 8 with 94% before you say such an obscene thing. i would commit suicide if he was better than me, and i would kill myself if i felt any jealousy for that pathetic drummer. IF you want to see a vid i did when i was 13:

watch?v=E-m1hkVAXGc&feature=re­lated

and a lil solo i made last year:

watch?v=Pp2i6NoB_cE

now tell me he is better than me you stupid fuck!

[KrossPoison1]

@BBQwatchman My apologies, if you had been on the right account I would have flamed this guy with you ;D I wish I knew someone like you, shortage of good drummers atm.

[BBQwatchman]

@KrossPoison1 lol dont be sorry. I would've flamed at anyone else if they said he was shit, or actually, i wouldnt have cos tbh he is. There are people in year 7 in my school who could kick his ass in a duel anyday :D but my fault for not using my drummerman account, i got bored of it and decided to start over :P

[KrossPoison1]

@BBQwatchman haha, it's all good! xD

[Damdidamdamdam]

@BBQwatchman

Haha what a pussie of a comment, nothing, no evidence to stand up to that, just talk.

[BBQwatchman]

@Damdidamdamdam what more evidence do i need than a video? i would tell you my real name, post code and address but from what i can see you aren't someone who can be trusted with such information. I go to Cardinal Vaughan memorial school, i am currently doing my A levels and will be going to Queens university in London. I recently transcribed from Y to Y from a Marasy video that he made. is that enough evidence for you? i dont intend on giving evidence to someone as ignorant as you

[Damdidamdamdam]

@BBQwatchman I replied to that comment before I knew there were any videos, and they are not nearly as good, and then you can think of the age difference. And this has nothing to do with your identity, not the kind of evidence I meant.

[BBQwatchman]

@Damdidamdamdam my video's were not nearly as good? this punk will never achieve grade 8. and besides, i'm giving this account to my younger brother who is on his way to becoming as good as me and he is 13. I will let him deal with you because to be honest, i don't have time to argue over this annoying kid.

[Damdidamdamdam]

@BBQwatchman Why would he be annoying? Because he has accomplished more than you will in your life?

[BBQwatchman]

@Damdidamdamdam hey mate, my brother isnt here right now but he said i should deal with you. My brother has accomplished FAR more than this excuse for a drummer. He is on his way to gaining a sponsership and even works in the holidays for the school recording drum tracks for his mates doing Music Tech A levels. I even recorded with him a few times. He has accomplished far more, but not many people know about it.

[Damdidamdamdam]

@BBQwatchman Dude this has nothin to do with how much he's working or what levels of degree has he achieved. I think that Kieran here is way better drummer than you're brother, compared to his drumming videos. And I woudln't have replied in the first place, but the comment of this account to 13 year old was so hostile and offensive that I felt sad and sick. This is a quote " i would commit suicide if he was better than me, and i would kill myself if i felt any jealousy for that pathetic drummer"

[BBQwatchman]

@Damdidamdamdam kieran here is no better than a special needs person- if you want me to say it, fine. this solo is pathetic. as Ghome6248, its not even a drum solo, its a drum cover. i would like him to do rudiments or fills, but it is clear that he couldnt if he even tried. my brother is in a different dimension compared to him. accept the fact that thousands out there are better then kieran, but they just havn't been found yet; youtube proves it. i will upload a video to show you this myself.

[BBQwatchman]

@Damdidamdamdam lmao that wasn't me btw, my brother knows my PW to everything ^^ anyway, in my eyes and many more, my brother has accomplished a lot considering that he had time to Ace his exams and get 94% on his grade 8 drum kit and General Percussion exams. he is even playing with a professional orchestra, Southbank Sinfonia, which i will be taking the timpani seat in this year. i am leaving this convo at that. but i might just upload a vid to prove this ^^

[Damdidamdamdam]

@BBQwatchman Pls do upload some videos, cause the ones so far aren't even average imo. And you just popped out more "text on paper" status boosting points, that have nothing to do with my itention here.

[BBQwatchman]

@Damdidamdamdam i will do. please recommend some hard drum songs as i cant be bothered to look myself. expect a video in a week or 2. at least fix your grammer and check over what you wrote before posting it. and i am putting and end to this conversation as i'm sure Craniam is getting annoyed with all these notifications ^^

[Damdidamdamdam]

@BBQwatchman English ain't my native language and I'm not here to write a pragmatic text. I'm here to say my opinion on this matter, and I don't care how well it's writte, only that the intention appears.

And for your knowledge you have more typing errors in your replies than I have in mine, even if you include the internet slang.

[BBQwatchman]

@Damdidamdamdam internet slang is not an "error", and please refer to my typing errors and prove me wrong. its rather hypocritical that you say that as well, since you misspelled "written" and wrote "writte". i guess this is because you are aggravated from this conversation and to be honest i've lost interest in your ignorance. I'm off to play in Ronny Scotts. i would like to see Kieran get a gig there. £80 per ticket if you wanna come. the fact i am playing there proves my superiority over him.

[Damdidamdamdam]

@BBQwatchman Wow this conversation is really getting epic. "Writte" was intentional :D "grammer" "Ace" "convo" "havn't" "sponsership" etc.. You keep telling me of losing interest in this conversation and pointing out my "ignorance" whatever you mean with that. And all you blabber over and over again is names and places, degrees and achievements. Not a single bit of any proof in all that 9 thick comments.

[BBQwatchman]

@Damdidamdamdam correction, a comma should be put between that list of slang (i admit i spelt grammar wrong since its never used in england ^^) to make "grammer", "Ace", "convo", "havn't", "sponsorship." "Whatever you mean with that," is also wrong, it should be, "whatever you mean BY that." "And all you blabber over and over again is names and places, degrees and achievements. Not a single bit of any proof in all that 9 thick comments." many things wrong with that so i will just correct them:

[BBQwatchman]

@Damdidamdamdam "And all youR blabber over and over again is names and places, degrees and achievements. Not a single bit of any proof in all thOSE 9 thick comments." Also, remember not to start a sentence with a conjunction (a connecting such as: and, but, although, or, yet, so etc.), as it is classed as wrong, but there is no real law against it. There you go; are you smarter than a 13 year old? No. I type extremely fast and i cannot always keep my punctuation and spelling at an optimum!

[BBQwatchman]

[Damdidamdamdam]

@BBQwatchman Wow man, you really must be a troubled person. Why do you try to drag this further away from the orginal point? THE POINT IS that you go make hate comments on a 13 year old drummer while you yourself (over 25 years old) have uploaded way worse drumming videos of youself. And all you have been able to say so far is grammar corrections and irrelevant places and degrees that you have (or may have) achieved. So please do upload those videos that you meant to, and have a grab on yourself

[BBQwatchman]

@Damdidamdamdam LMAO i am not 25 years old you absolute spastic. when my brother made this account he used an autofiller which saves profiles when you want to use facebook and he ended up with this name and age. This isn't my account after all! I am 13 years old myself, and to be honest, i don't have time to put towards playing the drum- i'm taking my Physics GCSE a year early and i have to revise like crazy learning formula's, theories and other useless crap that will get me nowhere in life.

[Damdidamdamdam]

@BBQwatchman Oh that explains why this conversation has no sense or no intelligence. Please create your own account for your own purposes, and don't confuse people with your false profile information. So in the end you probably have no special drumming skills, but just used your anonamity to flame in the internet public. I can believe that nothing that you have said so far is true, and I am more than happy to end this conversation here.

[BBQwatchman]

@Damdidamdamdam lmao this just gets better and better. i asked you to recommend to me a song to play as i don't listen to much music, i am concentrating purely on my academic skills. don't choose a song using double kicks as i left the left kick in Ronnie Scotts and it wasn't there when i went back.

[tanshiang]

whats this song?

[MichaelBrogannn]

He's so shit and that's the end of the conversation!

[darthdude1016]

yeah yeah everyone thinks there better than everyone else shut the fuck up one i dont see you up there and two anyone has the potential to be a great musican its just some people need more practice than others

[noakogman]

wipout

LLLAAMMMEEEE DDUUDDDEEE!!!!!!

[PibbXtra08]

As this the only song he knows????

[spikew10]

Im sorry but I have to admit, That I think I could do better than him, Im not trying to brag but I would have practised more before preforming on TV, he's allright, but the chorous is pritty much the most adverage drumming technique there is, mixed up with a little fast tempo drumming, Im a little younger than he is, and I've been playing about 2 1/2 years, Allthough I did air drum for a year before that. Remember Gaffney, there's room for improvement.

[Beholdthecoma]

is this the only song he can do?

[the12345joker]

It's wonderful that Keiran is having success.

It's amusing that Keiran's uneducated fans (who obviously know nothing about drumming) think he is an incredible drummer. People he isn't.

Maybe he can be in time.

For the fans who think they know a lot about drumming then you should all know these famous young drummers:

Tony Royster Jnr @ 12 yrs

Jacob Armen @ 7 yrs

Senri Kawaguchi @ 12 yrs

Cole Marcus 4 yrs

If not, you're pontificating

Good Luck Keiran and keep practising !!

[spikew10]

@the12345joker

yeah! this guy knows what he's talking about, check out Tony royster Jnr!!!! amaizing

[ThenextPetrucci]

Im 14 and i have been playing drums for just a couple of months and im still better than him... (all thanks to Mike portnoy :D)

[butterseed]

jealous drummers make me laugh :L:L im a drummer ive been drummin for fuckin years lolz im 17 :L and that kid is fuckin amazin :L he didnt get buzzed by simon :L any of yous put a kit infront of simon and try not get a buzz :L

[eequalsmcvajeen12]

@butterseed No problem.

[butterseed]

@eequalsmcvajeen12 youll get buzzed :L

[eequalsmcvajeen12]

@butterseed Good one. I could play this after two weeks of drumming. And that was 7+ years ago. I would like to see this kid play some Divine Heresy, The Devil Wears Prada, A Skylit Drive, etc...Or anything remotely close to them...Do you have any idea how easy this is? I take it you don't play drums? Or do you play drums and think that stuff like Breaking Benjamin and Korn is hard? Haha. Again; good one though.

[butterseed]

@eequalsmcvajeen12 post a video of you playing it and ill shut up when you do :) it has to be perfect :) ;) and cheers it was a goodin

[eequalsmcvajeen12]

@butterseed Again, my point is; anyone who plays easy stuff like this can do it perfectly. And I don't need to. Why would I need to prove that I can play elementary stuff to someone who thinks that elementary playing is great?

[butterseed]

@eequalsmcvajeen12 OK AGREED HES SHITE :L I WAS WRONG THATS LIKE ALL HE CAN PLAY :L SORRY DUDE HES SHITE

[fred5644]

lol i cant believe how many people are impressed with this kid

[Conzerceol]

cut the lad some slack.. he's just after being on one the biggest entertainment shows in the world...savage open work on toms mate...keep it up...

[smadgerbadger]

I can do that 10 times better and I've been druming for 2 years

[BubakuliG]

Sorry but he's not that good. 

[smileysmile1]

idiot!

[Rajindahouse]

is this all he plays?

[DavieDrum]

yeah.. people havnt seen enough drummers, this kids totally over rated, even for his age.. most drummers have seen better

[iDudeMapex]

why does he only play this song and he is terrible at it

christ get him to play some hard songs he is shit

[cookysvidz]

for any real drummers... tony royster?

[mellodge]

@cookysvidz totally agree. I'm seriously not a hater, best of luck to him. But he isn't a prodigy, I'm sorry but he isn't; dare i say overrated. BGT fans and people on here haven't seen enough drummers. There are kid drummers out there that are truly jaw dropping! Kieron has got some skill, but my gripe with him is that he doesn't do ANYTHING advanced.... I'm not havin ago at kieron but rather the people hyping him up to be something that he isn't, which is unfair on him!

[iDudeMapex]

@cookysvidz far from

he is nothing on tony royster :/

[93lilfordy]

why are you putting this kid down, he is 12/13 years old and he can do that, you lot are just pathetic and obviously have nothing else to do except try and say someone with talent like that does not have talent, bet you cant do that

[jpjunior06]

not as good as some of us

[drummerlive01]

Bad sound!!!

[RoughShotBroward]

I don't have time to do America's got talent. I am to busy with my band and our success and my schooling. the rest will take care of itself.

[RoughShotBroward]

I am 12 and I am NOT impressed. Look at my Video's and you will see why. I have been playing 22 months total. I play live with my band every weekend. Hate to think if I only played this one song.

[GunSlingerXAi]

that's pretty damn good for a kid his age...

VERY damn good

[slipknotjoeyftw]

they are right .. its a cover not a solo .

[crmcdude]

it's true any drummer would know that's not a solo

[lewiscoveney]

dude STFU!

[cranium73]

@crmcdude I ain't a drummer, just watched a kid and was impressed with his talent, I apologise for all those drummers who were offended by my faux pas. So what he did on Britain's Got Talent a couple of weeks ago now was a solo? Just so I totally understand drummer speak so as not to piss anyone off in future. Jeez

[seazure]

@cranium73 i know he sucks

[SMITHIESx84]

@crmcdude Agreed '

[ghome6248]

not a solo its called a drum cover

[cranium73]

OMG how padantic are you?

[sakishirocp9]

Pedantic*

[Robotdrummerzzk]

@cranium73 It's not? How is it "pandantic"?

He was stating a fact, you douche.

[lewiscoveney]

LOSER

[TheGreenhalgh25]

@ghome6248 its called shite
