Playing drums to Freewill by Rush

[Wildcard0707]

do you have a double bass drum pedal, or is it just a single?

[cmepla14U]

@Wildcard0707 double bass

[cradd00]

Very nice! I couldn't begin to imagine all the hours of practice time! Keep up the good work.... Even Neil Peart we be proud..... you two aren't somehow related are you?

[cmepla14U]

@cradd00 yeah he's my dad......I wish lol

[marioparaiso]

Congratulations, you´re a very good player, go ahead, them soon we all will hear about you !

[cmepla14U]

@marioparaiso thanks bro

[ThatPurpleDoor]

How do you get the cymbals so shiny mine are messy

[cmepla14U]

@ThatPurpleDoor Ziljian symbol polish is what i use it works great!

[RogueReplicant]

@cmepla14U: It's "cymbal", not "symbol", although I doubt you'd ever have to write it on a job application. If u can play Rush, u can play any other band's songs. Good guitarists are a dime a piece, so are bass players & singers. But good drummers who have their own kit are rare indeed.

Just keep at it, and pretty soon any rock band in the world will gladly have you. Or are u getting into jazz?

[JBL8863]

You like Rush? obviously....what brand cymbals and drums?

Sounds epic!

[rockinwithdokken1]

[midairflyer]

[cmepla14U]

@midairflyer that's not a mirror smart one lol

[midairflyer]

@cmepla14U

mmmmmmka, you gonna answer the question, smart one? lol

[cmepla14U]

@midairflyer it's like the dome of a ride symbol....they call it a Z bell

[hennessey1200]

@cmepla14U they all look like mirrors haha

[StickHits]

Awesome awesome video. I hope to attempt this with more practice.

[wardd413]

Nice kit and great playing!

[dreamdrummen]

hi i like your drumming and your drum kit it has a "brand new look" i invite you to check out my vids also, one question do you have any mics in your drum set? cause sounds so killer but i dont catch any mic around ..cheers men keep rocking!!

[Johnny64ism]

^5 Man u are SMOKIN HOT !! Sweet sounding,,Kit Looks great

[darklord8603]

OMG justin bieber know good music!

[concertoldham]

way to go man. you nailed it.

[DrClockPMD]

1 minute and 40 seconds the snare drum fill was not right(I still haven't figured this fill out),

the fill at 3 minutes and 4 seconds starts out like this, flam Right Left on the snare,

at 3 minutes and 23 seconds the snare is supposed to have doubles between the tom hits,

and the 6/8 rhythm has more gost notes,

but seriously you are way closer to being spot on then me.

I almost have YYZ down which is from years of trying to play it.

Also I like to play things my own way as well.

[AustinTK2550]

You have a great looking set, I would've been so mad if somebody who sucked played on such a great kit. But you did not disappoint, Great work!!

[2423aarhead]

your cymbals look sexy haha

[cmepla14U]

@2423aarhead thanks! haha

[willshiznit86]

you didnt use like any ghost notes- thats like the hardest part of the song.

[HunterCO1]

@willshiznit86 Next time try watching and listening to the video with your head out of your ass!!

[willshiznit86]

@HunterCO1 maybe he should try playing the song right...

[HunterCO1]

@willshiznit86 You should try posting a video of you playing the song and show us all how to "play the song right"!! Or you could just run your pie hole and keep making an ass of yourself its your choice.

[willshiznit86]

@HunterCO1 i guarantee you i can play this song perfect, but i dont really have the time to make a video or edit it. im just giving this guy some advice

[teamgod]

hearing protection - good man. I cringe every time I see a drummer rocking out without proper ear wear.

Oh, and solid playing! :D

[nhra07]

Hey, you should give Subdivisions a try. Great job!

[gahloot]

Great kit,Great camera angle and good playing!

[tlareng]

Natural born talent, that can't be taught, you either have it or you don't.

You have it. Enjoyed your vids, more coming?

[dvision23]

You are a natural. The way you handled the fill at 2:25 was just astounding! Do you know how many years I've been trying that one? I'd rather not say.

[shebilynne]

you should play moby dick by led zeppelin

[mappinator]

A lot of fun to watch. That's serious quality. Technically sound with a smooth groove! What type of kit do you play? Cymbals? Please post more.

[kelvisparsley64]
