Lonely Wheel Drum Cover

[BAZIKHQ]

bro you play really good, i just have 1 piece of advice, try to limit your body movement in your torso, u would play so much cleaner. much love keep it up bro

[HiIplaydrums]

From one drummer to another, I really enjoy your videos man, among all the crap you catch for the Aaron gillespie "wanna be" thing I think it's really cool you play like him, he is an amazing drummer and person, one of my biggest role models in fact. Keep it up with the band as well, you guys are pretty good!

[davidelijahmusic]

good cover buddy! keep it up! weve played with aaron a couple times and hes a rad dude,...he would be very proud of that cover! dont let these people getcha down! go add us man!!

[Thecalebguy]

People are making fun of you for being an Aaron Gillespie "wannabe"? Um than I guess I am too, he is awesome! Good work bro

[johs12345]

don't listen to the haters man! The fact that you can play the stuff that Aaron does is just amazing. Keep rocking :)

Much love

-Johannes, Denmark

[avenged7xfan12]

@johs12345

Thanks a lot, that's cool of you to say. And the fact that people have nothing better to do then going around and commenting negative things on people's videos for absolutely no reason is just sad, so i laugh it off.

[PinkDrumzz]

dude why are you trying so hard to copy aaron, i mean forget the whole copying and just do your own style to it.

your hits are also a bit sloppy but you can work on them and start hitting solid and hard.

[BobbyLikesDrums]

@PinkDrumzz he got lessons from aaron.. hes probably one of his favorite drummers. I definitely steal a lot of my favorite drummers styles. this is a sick cover man! im gonna sub

[scrumdidilyumpsish]

Aaron Gillespie must of passed on the technique to you when you got the lessons.. VERY LUCKY

[Blessthefallen24]

How much did you buy that truth kit for?

[bgiterik]

why do people come on here talking shit? what do they get out of it? keep doing your thing man.

[Derjumba2forever]

talk about aaron gillespie wannabe

[CircaEmerge]

@Derjumba2forever Wannabe or not lol he got lessons by Aaron Gillespie himself..go look two videos before this one

[user13579246801]

that is one beautiful cymbal. does anybody know how much this drum kit is going for? price wise i mean.. does anyone also know for how much longer they are going to be selling it for?

[user13579246801]

that is one beautiful cymbal. does anybody know how much this drum kit is going for? price wise i mean..

[TheEddie520]

Hey man what size cymbals do you use? And are they rides? Also keep up the good work!

[TheAcoust1c]

Good job man! What recording software and mic(s) did you use?

[avenged7xfan12]

@TheAcoust1c

Thank you, I use Sony Vegas 9 Pro and a Samson c03u USB mic.

[TheAcoust1c]

@avenged7xfan12 Sweet, thanks for replying! N keep on rocking bro!!

[boobmonter64]

it sounds like you're off a bit in a few spots and it looks like you're trying to hard to copy someones style. just be yourself dude and have fun with your playing i know its always good to have influences when you play but to copy them like for their stylistic choices on how they play is just goofy. so just be yourself and have fun playing!

[DarknessDrawsCloser]

Do you have cases for your drums when you play gigs, or do you just transport them bare?

[avenged7xfan12]

@DarknessDrawsCloser

I use Humes & Berg Drumseeker cases. They are great.

[ProjectXGh0sT]

What ride do you have it absolutely blows me, literally.

[DarknessDrawsCloser]

@ProjectXGh0sT I think it's a Meinl 22" Byzance Crash Ride.

[avenged7xfan12]

@DarknessDrawsCloser

Its a meinl byzance 24" medium ride.

[avenged7xfan12]

@ProjectXGh0sT

Its a meinl byzance 24" medium ride.

[ProjectXGh0sT]

Are u happy with the truth drums? I was looking into getting some.

[avenged7xfan12]

@ProjectXGh0sT I could'nt be happier with them, and if there are still any left I highly reccomend buying the kit that I have. Check it out on their website. Its amazing.

[andrewcopeowns]

what tom heads do you have?

[avenged7xfan12]

@andrewcopeowns

In this video just the truth stock heads.

[JeserNoob]

Hey you seem to be losing weight. Im not trying to be mean but thats real cool for you man. Anywho, i like your style. It reminds me of Aarons. But yeah i mean how could you not get a few drum gestures from him? After all you studied under him. :D

[avenged7xfan12]

@JeserNoob

Not mean at all. Thanks, though I did lose some weight. And yeah, I pick up a lot from Aaron Gillespie.

[JeserNoob]

@avenged7xfan12 Hey thanks for replying so soon haha. Uhh can i as kyou a question regarding the recording devices?

[avenged7xfan12]

@JeserNoob

Definitley. Just ask whatever you want.

[JeserNoob]

@avenged7xfan12 Oh ok so, what do you use to record? just the mic? or the camera too? Its pretty good quality. Like how much did it cost? Because i want to record some drum tracks but i dont have any equipment.

[avenged7xfan12]

@JeserNoob

I use no audio from the camera mic. Just the video, and I use a samson c03u USB mic, i got i at samash for $130. And you can get a regular version of it, with a normal mic input on the bottom, or the usb one, just plugs straight into your computer. If you get the regular one, you'll need a mixer of some sort. I reccomend the usb one, you plug it straight into your computer, and I use a program called sound recorder it comes with windows computers for free, so.

[timothycayem]

hey dude good cover. I have a question though. If you buy the kit from truth do you get all the hardware? like what did you have to buy after you got it from truth?

[avenged7xfan12]

@timothycayem

Well, I'm not sure exactly what you mean. It came with a mount for the tom, which I obviously am not using in this video, but I am now, and it works great. And it came with legs for the floor tom and a decent set of heads. It did'nt come with a snare stand or anything like that. Hope that answers your question.

[timothycayem]

@avenged7xfan12 I was just wondering if it came with the tom stand and the snare stand. that's all.

[merge19]

you're pretty talented for your age. keep it up, dude.

[javier20893]

good cover bro ! how much did you pay for the kit? truth kits are pretty expensive ! lol

[avenged7xfan12]

@javier20893

$1725 Thanks dude.

[javier20893]

@avenged7xfan12 damn bro where did you get that money from? lol

[porkdanpie]

dude you kick ass bro !

[gedbangsdrums]

im sure aaron is proud of you kiddo

[JimmyiPad]

what mic are you using????

[avenged7xfan12]

@JimmyiPad

Samson c03u usb

[Brioo27]

nice cover man! awesome job

[stapleboy456]

hey, your that kid that drummed with aaron gillespie. nice. lucky duck.

[rjblackbelt]

How did you tune your bass drum? Tight or loose? because i just cant get the right sound on my aaron series kit. Please help!

- Thanks

[1111ccccgggg]

@spratty59 yes it is

[SOULSOFDARK]

you lucky duck you got Aarons signature kit

[TenthQu1cksh0t]

let me guess, Aaron's custom signed truth set??

[mlgrufman]

nice cover, I'm getting an Aaron-kit today actually :D Haha you're missing it at 0:25, aren't you?

[JoeMorris7]

SO unoriginal !

[JoeMorris7]

Aarons signature is amazing and this cover is ok , if you hadnt concentrated on trying to be so much like him , the cover would have been alot better

xxx

[AMdrummer304]

what size is your ride?

[avenged7xfan12]

@AMdrummer304

24" meinl medium byzance ride on my right and 20"aax stage ride on my left

[dtyson777]

@avenged7xfan12 kudos to you. 24 ride is a ballsy move. haha. It sounds unbelievably incredible though. I absolutely adore that ride. I played it safe with a 20" haha. How thick is it?

[dtyson777]

@avenged7xfan12 oh my bad, you already said medium

[swordsdragonscoke15]

ahhhh love that truth

[Br0k3M3xican]

1725? Man so not worth it. Your for name when it comes to custom kits...

[avenged7xfan12]

@Br0k3M3xican

I think 1725 was a great deal, considering how expensive their custom kits are and the quality of the drums, they were made just like any other truth kit, but cost a lot cheaper.

[DrUMK1nG]

@avenged7xfan12 - Eh not exactly....they are like Taiwan drum sets. They made 85. Those werent made like original truth kits. Ive got one. The snare lugs like to fall out....by themselves...while playing. very convenient haha

[avenged7xfan12]

@DrUMK1nG

No, actually they were made like all truth kits, they were just made in a different factory because Truth does not make mass amounts of kits. Truth makes custom kits (only one), but all of the parts were Truth and the wood was the same and Truth/Aaron Gillespie designed the kit, so there is no difference, I talked to Aaron Gillespie in person about it and Jeff from Truth about it. Call Jeff and ask him.

[1111ccccgggg]

@avenged7xfan12 This kit is cheap it was made in taiwan!! thats why it cost much less. its not as good as there custom kits. For a couple hundred more you couldda got a DW Performance Kit! This kit is just commercial cuz it has Aarons name on it. Thats the only reason you paid as much as you did.

[1111ccccgggg]

@avenged7xfan12 This kit is cheap it was made in taiwan!! thats why it cost much less. its not as good as there custom kits. For a couple hundred more you couldda got a DW Performance Kit! This kit is just commercial cuz it has Aarons name on it. Thats the only reason you paid as much as you did. I was gonna get this kit but its cheap! any kit thats not made in US isnt good! No im getting a DW Peformance series! :)

[avenged7xfan12]

@1111ccccgggg

Call Jeff from Truth and talk to him. That's all im gonna say.

[1111ccccgggg]

@avenged7xfan12 I already did! I was gonna get this kit but its cheap!! Its made in Taiwan thats a good enough notification of it being cheap!!! Instead im paying a couple more hundred for a good quality kit. A DW Performance series.

[spratty59]

@1111ccccgggg no its not

[drumsallout]

@avenged7xfan12 Truth drums suck

[iwimp1994]

@drumsallout You must not know drums then. They are a great brand with lots of high quality sets...

[drumsallout]

@iwimp1994 My drum old drum teacher is endorsed by Truth, so yes I know nothing about truth drums. I have been playing for 9 and a half years

[iwimp1994]

@drumsallout Then you should know that they're good sets.

[TheKacho123]

@drumsallout why?

[drumsallout]

@avenged7xfan12 Custom kits are ripoffs. My drum teacher gets free kits and he says that there are way better kits and your paying to much for what you get PERIOD

[munsta08]

@drumsallout just because he is endorsed don't mean he gets free kits you just good deals, And stop being jelouse.

[overtone83]

@drumsallout You know he is just playing a Aaron Gillespie signature kit that is a production model right?

[porkdanpie]

@drumsallout well not really, not everyone gets free drum kits :S and how are they a rip off you get what you want and they sounds fuckin kick ass ...

[drumsallout]

@porkdanpie I am not saying the drums sound bad, but the price you are paying is to expensive. Your paying for the name and the look. The use keller shells which is what every custom drum company uses except C&C which makes their own shells. The thing is if it was truely custom, they would make their own shells, you can customize your kit, but the materials they use are nothing new. Tama, yamaha, pearl, etc make their own shells. Point is they are not worth the price your paying.

[porkdanpie]

@drumsallout i know what your saying, they are over priced. but the ones he is using are now custom, their aaron gillespie signature kit, they come stock like that, and their pretty well priced

but i understand were your coming from

[hobes9]

you play just like aaron. awesome drumming man

[jaydoode15]

how much was the kit?

[avenged7xfan12]

@jaydoode15

1725

[devcoop1]

i fucking want this kit so bad hahaha

[AskMitchJackson]

Solid man! I want a truth set so bad. I need a new job first.

[avenged7xfan12]

@AskMitchJackson

Thanks, and I highly reccomend a Truth Kit it's awesome.

[AskMitchJackson]

@avenged7xfan12 Hopefully one day. You need cymbals man!

[midwestbrigade12]

Holy shit man! YOu're not fat! and you have sexy drums! Props on the shit and the cover

[RaurTheMuffinBoy]

The sexiest kit ive ever seen O.O

[theJPMacc]

Dont take this the wrong way. but you remind me if aaron, the set-up and the way you choke the snare. and the look. lol

but i dont mean to offened :)

[oBIGxREDo]

How do did you manage to get a Truth drum kit at 14? lol I'm 15 and have been playing for literaly 10 years going on 11 and I have a Pearl Export........ I hate it haha. Nice cover though keep it up!

God bless!

[drumsallout]

I bet you got the drum set b/c you get drum lessons from aaron right?

[avenged7xfan12]

@drumsallout

Actually, I ordered it before i had the lessons with him.

[bindingflame1]

i believe you missed the hi-hat at 0:26 :)

[avenged7xfan12]

@bindingflame1

haha yeah

[drummer4LIFE2015]

[xXOliverRamaXx]

[avenged7xfan12]

[avenged7xfan12]

@dannyss29

I t was 1725 including shipping. Its a great deal from Truth! Go to truthdrums com and check it out.

[xXOliverRamaXx]

How does the 24" bass feel compared to a 22" bass ??

Please answer. Im getting a custom kit and wanna get the right size!:)

[avenged7xfan12]

@xXOliverRamaXx Depends on what style you play, for me, I like a 24" or even better a 26" but that's for my style/preference, if you play like a matt greiner type, then I would say go for a 20".

[1511zack]

sweet!sounds amazing and im loving tht a.g signature kit

[jordanhitsthings]

youve gottten better dude. and are you a christian?

[avenged7xfan12]

@jordanhitsthings

Yeah, thanks.

[jordanhitsthings]

@avenged7xfan12 no prob. so am i.

[jordanhitsthings]

is that 24 really loud? and what size is the crash?

[avenged7xfan12]

@jordanhitsthings

Yeah it is really loud and its a 20" AAX Stage Ride i use as a crash.

[jordanhitsthings]

@avenged7xfan12 oh cool. i hear byzance's crack easily. my freind had a tradidtional 21 medium ride and it cracked in 2 months and he said theyre real thick. and haha yeah i use a 21 TRX mdm ride and a zildian 20 inch ride as a crash and k custom hats. and 22,12,16 drums. and i like the arron sig. kit dude. nice

[avenged7xfan12]

@jordanhitsthings

Is the TRX ride durable, because I love hat heavy ride feel, which I know TRX has and meinl byzance are just cracking too much on me, looking for a new brand to go with.

[jordanhitsthings]

@avenged7xfan12 oh dude.... the trx BRT and MDM series between 21 to 24 inch rides are so heavy sounding. and are hard as crap to crack! so yeah. theyre sweet. i love it so far. the 21 is probobly about as deep as a 24 inch byzance would sound . its pretty cool bro! just ask anything. and i should be able to help about them.

[avenged7xfan12]

@jordanhitsthings

Ok thanks, I appreciate it.

[jordanhitsthings]

@avenged7xfan12  yeah man. no problem. anytime

[emmanuelpz08]

are those meinl mb20?

[avenged7xfan12]

@emmanuelpz08

The ride is a meinl byzance but the hats and crash are aax

[SexEdRocksFTW]

Oh for fuck sake! So what if he looks like aaron or plays like aaron! if he feels comfortable playing that way let him fucking be! I play like andrew wetzel of attackattack! cause i like his setup and his posture when playing. leave the drummer alone!

[jordanhitsthings]
