I wish we had more real drummers like this instead of all those wanna be's who are famous but suck. Anyways.... That solo was a beast!!!!

[kylewagoner]

This one is my favorite of yours so far. I'm getting out of shape because my drumset is in the studio and I have nothing to play on at home right now. I'll see you sometime in the future!

love,

Kyle

[xc800man]

WTF thats all I can say !!!!!wow

[NouveauNick]

Donnie, totally bad ass stuff.

So crisp!

I always wonder with drummers at your chops level...what are you working on next? What do you want to be able to do in the next few years?

[patman173]

was thinking of getting that snare head now it seems like a better idea.. awesome playing :o

[iwarner09]

what's your recording set-up?

Nice vid!! Any inspiration from Steve Smith on the hi-hat section?

[garsbaby]

That's not fair

[drumkid900]

almost dropped the stick at the end but perfect other than that. :)

Awesome solo!

[thedunnyman]

awesome solo! ur kit sounds amazing! may i ask what mics and how the recording is set up? cheers - duncan

[dmarple]

Thanks for the comment. This was just a scratch recording. I used shure b52 inside my bass drum, shure sm57 on snare and floor tom then there is an overhead above me to pick up the toms and cymbals. I use a yamaha 16 track recorder. Thanks for asking!

[drummerzarate]

@dmarple No doubt you are one of the youngest and talented drummers. Congratulations the solo was totally creative and melodic. In fact what you did bettween 3:05 to 3:20 i came up 2 months ago with a beat very very similar. I really enjoy your work. i wish i had your age, but i am still fighting i startet drums 3 years ago, i am 44 now. I still have 16 years more to learn. Good luck in your future there are a lot of drummers but there is always room for talented people like you.

[DoNotFeedTheMooseNow]

You're one of my favourites drummers. Just an amazing solo...

[Bt2BreakSkn]

Amazing!

I'm looking forward to seeing more Mr. 2007 Champion!
