[eskie2nc]

Great song and great job

[moosecurrybelmont]

[craigand777]

ANOTHER GREAT PERFORMANCE! WHERE DO YOU LIVE? I WOULD LOVE TO HIRE TO PLAY IN MY PROGRESSIVE/POWER METAL BAND! YOU'RE VERY GOOD AT YOUR CRAFT!

[s3hochb]

Fantastic!

[rdety]

nice job as usual!..I too am a scott fan and try to play from the heart.

[5150rd]

id like to see him do della brown...some good drumming in that tune

[kevinhatfield66]

Good job, you have great taste in music... Keep rockin.

[tazdrum1]

Awesome cover man!!!

[DrumsByAdisa]

easy to forget some lil crash or fill here and there, still a fantastic cover. i'm tryin to mimic you on this song as we speak!

[DrumsByAdisa]

great cover, but the short fill at 1:15 and 2:13 are clearly heard, but you only play it at the 1:15 mark. maybe you did two takes on this and edited them together?

[Astrotama]

@DrumsByAdisa No, I just forgot to play that doted note. What you hear is the original track from the CD.

[hlywood72]

This was perfect ............... WOW !

[arrosconpollo1]

Thanks for uploading this...great job!

[WhatsHisName26]

Awesome man! You look like you were really channeling Scott!

[FingertipOfTheNight]

Sorry Pierre, but this song is for a middling drummmer, not for the top class perfomer as you are. There´s no possible comparison between Rush and Queensryche :o)

[doctorbuckner]

Well done Brother!! Well Done!!!

[Kataanmonster]

He's badass.

[zapor67]

that was spot on dude, GREAT job!!!

[uroshow]

I'm wondering, why do not you record this one in HD, like the new ones?

[uroshow]

Always a vey nice job! Thanks for sharing!

[1000ian1000]

Just wondering, what do you think of Wuhan chinas?

[Astrotama]

@1000ian1000 I own two of those and like them quite a bit. I have not used them in years, since I got the Paragons set in fact. Good cymbals!

[Rockywaves73]

Awesome...you have a new fan...as you can tell I've commented on several of your vids this morning...lol. Your Rush covers are great and now to hear you to a Queensryche cover is just mind blowing.

[jjdecks]

Great cover, nice drums!

[beergut111]

your timing with the kick was off.....but not too bad. keep at it.

[zimbalist]

wow, that was flawless!!!!

[phsgarcia]

I see your setup was inspired by the Pert... Great playing!

[zephead2002]

You nailed that one to the wall,... great execution,... I uploaded a few Queensryche vids. and WMG blocked them,... but check out some of my other drumming vid.s when you get a few,... keep on Rockin

[Playloud78]

[bigaldiver]

[misanthrope81]

[driveasshole]

[wajustone]

[miachevydude]

I too am a Big Fan of Scott rockenfield,I think he is a Excellent drummer,along with Alex Van Halen,very underated Drummers IMHO.

[truepatriot1964]

I think you need some more cymbals dude LOL just joking man you are damm good on those drums im a guitar player have been playing for the last 25 or so years but recently had a set of pearls damm near given to me so im trying to learn how to play them you give inspiration keep banging them drums and ill keep watching man

[RobertMfromLI]

Great job!!!

[TheNovaman71]

This guy is real good

[BCasale3]

Tight and smooth - always loved the song - you played it well.

[stazym69]

Fuggin' Nice Job!!!! Spot On!

[3soccerstars]

Rocking

[pitt32671]

Great job brother ! i love Scott Rockenfield

[hclowers]

Wow! Impressive.

[drec4life]

that was mind blowing, but i want to know if that was your actual drums audio, or if you just played the song over the video. if its real, what cymbals do you use, especial the chinas?

[Astrotama]

The song is overdubbed over the drumming video but the drums you hear are mine because they are mixed louder than the original track, and I try to play the track as accurately as possible. The cymbals on the left was the Paragon 19". The one on the right, not normally used in my setup, was my old Paiste 2002 18" chinese cymbal. All others are Sabian Paragons.

[shreddinjoe]

Now thats the way its done....

[zajebach]

Cool!!! :D

[csrgatorfan]

I've seen a few of your "dubs" and you seem to have a knack for technical accuracy. A lot of others want to add more than what's original or they miss some things altogether. But you're really good. Great job, man.

[Z064me]

That song give me chills everytime - you nailed it dude!!! GREAT band. Thanks for sharing!

[TrentM1990]

holy shit , kick ass man , that was right on

[stevelora]

Rockenfield is the best.... Portnoy, eat ur heart out

[evermetal2]

Way to go dude, you rock!

[jbsouthpaw2009]

Wow! Great man! Just Great! Love watching you do the roll combination at the end. Have to back up the clip again. Sweet!

[Dabeant]

SUPER!!!!!!!

[jcsmith440]

Cool, I have been trying that song for awhile, and had gave up on it.

You have reinspired me to try harder on it.

Where going to see Scott and the boys tommorrow night in Nashville TN !!

You nailed it!!

[dkcot]

wow you did great.

i always liked rockenfield because he did exactly what was needed, he had a really good feel, and his parts were pretty imaginative for that type of band at that time (especially some of his more "tribal" stuff).

i always did wonder though if he really needed that many drums and cymbals.

[jericho4004]

PHENOMENAL!! Zero mistakes! Excellent job my friend.

[jbowen24]

Perfect!

[jfuentezhd]

Dude....That kicked ass. I love Scott Rock as well. You really nailed it!

[adrumos94]

you ARE a drummer !!!!!! very few drummers play with their SPIRIT like u man..........

[queensryche8723]

Rockenfield is the man, nice work, keep drummin man.

[PeriwinkleNibblyNest]

I'm not a drummer, but LOVE Scott Rockenfield because he DOES love what he does, and the passion shows -- You nailed it! Great job!

[bringdownthehammer]

You did him proud......excellent job. As a drummer myself who grew up in that era and saw him play that live a few times on the tour with Metallica many moons ago, KUDOS! Your appreciation of his skills shows. I have covered Empire and Speak. It has been a long time since I thought about covers now playing in a new, original metal band. I dug your shreds on it. PEACE!!

[ObltKG4]

Thanks for posting and playing a song for the heart of enjoying drums. Scott is a great, great drummer.

[TonyCampbbell]

About time someone reconized Scott its harder to play stuff in the pocket and stay in time with all the stops and starts and fills with the accents with the cymbols and you need a nice job enjoy it very much your a really good drummer keep up the great music!

[ENEMENCIO123VISION]

Fucking all on beat man... Awesome!!!

[Astrotama]

Thank you! I spend a bit of time trying to make sure I do justice to these drummers I admire. Scott is awesome!

[maybelooking]

[Hellhammer84]

good job ! ;)

[drummerdogs]

Well Done i can play this songs on the drums to i was just wondering why do u need such a big set. i mean its great. but i get along fine with this song by just a regular crash. i just wanted to know

[Astrotama]

I can play this song too with a pencil on a desk... ;) This drumset was developed to play prog songs, in particular Rush songs. I like not only to reproduce the songs as precisely as possible but also as close to the original SOUND as possible. You NEED chinese cymbals for this song.

[misanthrope81]

well done

[jigdrum1]

Very well done!!

[AmyxLee66]

fucking awsome i bet that cost alot!!!

[wpowell123]

that was fun to watch. Well done, you make it look easy

[Mxjtro]

Exelente,bery good,congratulations,muy bueno!

[billiniguy]

holy fucking shit that drumset is amazing lol neway

[rich2244345]

that fucking bad as hell dude....the heart of the band

[doubleshotbill]

awsome,dude how many chinas you got?????

[Astrotama]

Three on the current kit. I have 3 others in a bag somewhere that I don't use much. ;)

[Jigen2112]

That was fuckin' amazing, great job!

[bigSheaD]

that was pretty great... i'm hypnotized by your kit.

[Slamgurka]

Hell of a job man! Verry good drumming and teknics. ´Keep on the good job.

Best regards from

Chris in Sweden.

[tecomeramon]

wOOWW!!

[SpiZZyWeZZy]

What kind of Tama is that?

[Astrotama]

Tama Starclassic Performer, birch shells.

[SpiZZyWeZZy]

Ok thanks.

[flex112261]

One of my favorite songs from this band. They are so awesome!!  I'm pushing 40 and it makes me feel 20 again!! Had the bumpers sticker on my Chevy Spectrum!!

[Halen1971]

This had to be Queensryche's best album overall. Every song was awesome.

Their first album with Queen of the Riech is unmatched.

[beckyfox19]

Can you play Queensryche's "I only dream in Infrared"?  Pleeeeease.

[restlessbreed10]

great job kid ive probably played that song a thousand times in my career and it never gets old!!! the only change i would make is get yourself an old set of sonor drums to snap it up a few notches

[dhv67]

Bravo!

[jonvball]

Where'd you get that shirt ? I've been lookin for that one...

[jonvball]

Where'd you get that shirt ? Thats the one I'm lookin for..

[tdupuy]

Nice!

[Rendclaw]

I have to admit, while Rockenfield was middle to middle-upper echelon as far as drummers, he had the coolest cymbal setup.

[BlueIceVideo]

suspended by chain links ! am developing a press kit for a QR tribute band in Arizona called the Ryche and if they had Rockenfields drumkit it would definitely put them over the top.

Recently uploaded some rough clips for the band to view under BlueIceVideo and one is Don't Believe in Love.

[rdety]

nice job dude,and I agree you have to have your heart in it...

fellow drummer in PA

[Sandman2q]

[TheShadowBrigade]

The Fuck it is! It is About Sister Mary Dying & How it Effects Nicky As Sets in That He'll Never See Her Again. I Believe He is in Prison at This Point For Murders That He Didn't Realise That He Committed. It is a Very Important Part of the Story.

[fightlikebrittney]

Awesome job!!!!! :-)

Awesome job, man that was kick-ass! Ryche-N-Roll!!

[mcinty12]

[b7160]

Very, very good... I've always thought Scott Rockenfield was an underrated drummer, and you nailed every subtlety of this song. Ditch those Tamas and get some Yamahas though :)

[Greatsky]

Excellent work! You did nail it perfect. I'll keep a spot open in my band for you anyday. Bravo!!

[MylesGabriel]

[Astrotama]

Send the check to: Astrotama, 3rd house of the left, Where it's very noisy... ;)

Thanks! I hope I have time to add more QR songs. SR is one of my favorites!

[jlg4488]

[mixerk1]

[mixerk1]

Dude! That vid kicked azz! You've got mad skills. Post more ASAP... maybe Neil Peart or Tommy Lee (?)... Better yet, how about an original solo? l'd like to see you freestyle one time. Keep it up because that was hella fun to watch. Props.......

[smorgdonkey]

Great playing. I think your kit is one of the biggest I've ever seen...monster kit!! Even chimes on both sides hanging up high...killer man!!

I bet you don't take the whole kit to a jam session!!!

[Astrotama]

Thank you! No, I take a pair of sticks and maybe a piece of cardboard. I just have a bad back.... ;)

[gluesniffer69]

outstanding

[coffee2donuts]

DAMN! That was sick dude, keep doing what you do best. I'm with Eyesore on this one, did you even make a single mistake? I couldn't fins one..lol

[Eyesore]

Seriously, bro; that was pretty kick ass. Did you make a single mistake?

And for the record, Rockenfield is one of the best drummers out there! And he has been for two decades.

[RobTuscelli]

GREAT!
