tough crowd down there!!!! hear how quiet they were at the end???? maybe they were just so stunned at the performance and couldn't believe how good rocky was on drums :)
Smart dudes on here can maybe play it straight but what of Rock'ys trix - alternate foot-bass n side-tom roll, solo foot-bass roll and slick wrists with heavy stix - try it all some time.
been taking lessons for two months now, and I still don't know how the hell to play it. Someone once told me it was just 16th notes, but that doesn't tell me how to do it
thanks D33JAW! I have looked over and over and can never find videos on youtube as far as HOW to play this. Many show wipeout, just not instructions. I guess I have to listen and practice. Still learning 16th notes, not sure if I can do 32 notes yet. Thanks again for the tips!!
Rocky, I've been playing the drums for 30+ years and it takes some talent to take a simple, redundant song like wipeout and make it fun like you did. Outstanding job!
LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!! Rocky...someone needs to get you on "The Tonight Show". Not only is your playing great, but the comedic part with the giant drumsticks is some serious work! People would go nuts seeing this!
Almost too technically correct but nonetheless awesome - and the one-handed is too, too much. Yeah, your arms are toast after this song. I did it twice in a row - finale and encore - and couldn't feel either arm for an hour.
that really wasnt that impressive tbh, the one handed stuff was really good, but he wasnt in time with the big sticks and i dunno seeing as some people said it was "like something ive never seen before" i thought it meant good.
4. then paste this to 4 videos if you do then your crush will kiss you on the nearest friday But if you read this and did not paste this, then you will have very bad luck
I am 13 years old and im a drummer for a band called "Wanted Again"
We do wipeout and i was looking on here for some cool ways to amuse the crowd.
The only way i do it(and you may want to try this) is after the second time i do the tom drums on the break, my band takes a break for about a minute and i get up off my drum set and i head out to the crowd and i play on peoples beer cans and tables and chairs (and if my mom is there i play on her head!) Keep it up man, and thank you! -LEVI
pretty neat version of this song! I've no idea where those big drum sticks came from. ..is it just me or does the drummer speed up during his solo parts? I mean, the playing is not bad, but the tempo doesn't stay steady during the fills...
Am I the only one that noticed he's holding one stick backwards?
