Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird(Drum Cover)

[TheBlastfuck]

this is epic. you smashed it, bro!

you have energy! keep it!

[k1ttyp0w3r]

I know it's a tough job to do and I am not an expert on drums but as a listener, as a part of the audience, I say that you're missing the beat with the cymbals at the end when it speeds up. Great work though!

[fogdiral]

man............. IS THE BEST FUCKING COVER OF FREEBIRD THAT I EVER SEEN!!

[blackludo72]

Free Bird is a song you can't covered, but you can approach it, and you did !

[JayPizzle22]

You sir, are a legend. That is all.

[blackludo72]

well done !

[Luke50001]

Marching snare? nice!

[Dgl44]

This video helped me a lot! Thanks! :) I'm preforming next friday and I've got 6 days to learn this and a few other songs. Have you got any tips on how to memorise all the fills easier?

[readyeddy101]

Most importantly this is a nice thing that dedicated this as a tribute to your brother. I can only imagine the emotions you had during the over 9 minute cover. You were looked emersed in the song and your play was fantastic. Also the sound of your kit with the mics was very good. You got got me tired just watching you play......Nick

[miniminer23]

this is an amazing cover of an amazing song

[shirtcreek]

I watched this expecting an epic fail, but you nailed this so well. Ken would be proud of you, what a tribute to both your Brother and to a great band.

I hear Led Zep have a drum seat that needs filling, I think you should go for it!

[wsecomp]

Great job! I only have two suggestions when you play it in the future: Leave the splash (mini-China?) on the right out of it. It takes away from the full sound that the rest of your cymbals give. And during the "turbo" part of the song, switch off cymbal hands, continuing to do doubles with the other i.e., R(c), L-L, R-R, L(c). Sounds the same as your presentation, but makes for a better show and easier sticking (believe it or not). Loved the passion!

[moviefan520]

when the lynyrd skyrd planes crash happened, my grandma nursed the guitarist in the nursing home she worked in..pretty cool

[poopy1239]

[MrCoOLmaN10001]

11 people are total douche bags, this man killed it and than barbecued it than ate it and plus it was for his brother

[biorex52]

@MrCoOLmaN10001 yeah i know, something prolly crawled up their asses and died

[jamesisaac9900]

[FLEIVA24]

WOOOOW broo this is amazing, really amazing because it shows I congratulate you seek, the best cover of free bird I've seen, you should be proud of yourself man.

[ThePinhead1987]

kit sounds awesome



[TheEveryhingGuy]

the dedication at the beginning made this video 1000 times better. even though it was already perfect. respect points bro.

[xXNukeMeXx]

11 people play guitar.

[FanTazTiCxD]

@xXNukeMeXx naaahh that was a bad one :P The guitar rocks too! :P

[xXNukeMeXx]

@FanTazTiCxD Wasn't suggesting that the guitar part was bad. Just the fact they have no idea how good you just played that.

[FanTazTiCxD]

Those dislikers probably disliked it because... wellllll.... no.. it's impossible to dislike this!! :P Maybe they thought the background sound wasn't loud enough or he was playing this live or something :P

[xXNukeMeXx]

Nice Ass Kit

[mmbb14P1]

MAN YOURR SOOO GOOODDD, :)

I HAVE SEEN GOOD DRUMMERS BEFORE BUT YOUR JUST AMAZINING :)

[ddrumbum]

@mmbb14P1 Thank you so much.

[mmbb14P1]

@ddrumbum anytime man.

[musiKBeing]

fuck man, impressive, really.

[ddrumbum]

@musiKBeing Thank you

[miced]

nice job but if u get bored dont play outside the box too much. im playing a skynyrd tribute (never grew up w this) and the band is smokin. guitarists and bass players who grew up w/ this stuff want THE PARTS as they were recorded and may not like u stretching. just a suggestion to keep the gig. be simple and then add if they ask u 2. cheers!

[vitorss0008]

very good. i'm brazilian

[MrFersh]

from one drummer to another... you got soul man! nice flams!

[onceonlyaz]

[wass112]

amazing cover........

awesum man.... :D

[bigjimgtr]

It would be great if drummers would record these videos without the band playing in the back ground or at VERY low volume, then I could practice along w/ my band to these tunes til we can find a decent drummer. Just to keep us from getting stagnant. LOL

Great job by the way !!!!

[93Batman]

Respect !

[tanman241]

very nice cover man! best i've seen! alot cleaner than mine!...i've only been playing since last january. how long have you been playing? keep it up i'll be checking some more covers from you

[superbuba1000]

[ShabbeyRoad1]

11 years since you lost your brother. I also lost a brother but don't need to say any more than that. God bless and how on earth you got through that performance with that on your mind only you will know. Mind blowing. Take care bud.

[omgmgthorselova4eva]

[IIIhittmanIII]

Thats sweet at 7:30 how you hit your crash symbols and still keep the drum roll going.

[ddrumbum]

@IIIhittmanIII Thanks man. Practice and a heart for what you do :)

[reteptnarag]

8 people have no respect for a fucking sweet song and a dope drummer! :)

[ddrumbum]

@reteptnarag This is the frustrating part. people dis on what other musicians are trying to say thru there instrument. I played this song the way I wanted to(like lots of other musicians), this was never meant to be a note for note cover. Thank you reteptnarag for understanding that! If we all played the same, it would be a pretty lame drumming community wouldn't it?

[reteptnarag]

@ddrumbum yea man i totally agree! great fkn job!

[hbk799]

good song and good drummer!!!!!!

[ddrumbum]

@hbk799 Thank you.

[SLFxROCKSx]

Please tell me where you learned to play this song. I'm desperate to find a tab for it. If you used a tab could you tell me where you got it from?

[ddrumbum]

@SLFxROCKSx Sorry man, no tab, just learned by ear.

[12macbookpro]

@ddrumbum same here i learn all my songs by ear

[MrNickdrummer]

Wow, very nice playing there, and the drums sound really good! I know you mentioned CAD mics, but which overheads did you use for this? Did you do the mixing too? Awesome job. And thanks for the comment on my Erotomania cover!

[ddrumbum]

@MrNickdrummer Thanks man. I used the CAD pencil condensers that come with the 7pc kit. They are amazing OH mics. I did all the mixing, recording all by myself, and this video was done quite a long time ago, I have learned a few things since lol.

[MrGretschman69]

your set sounds nice

[bullshit332]

Sick bro...Insanely good!

[MrMERCER10]

THAT WAS FUCKING INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Paiutepower]

Wow, dude you've got some talent, and me, and my uncle and my cousin all drum but we can't touch this.

I'm only in 8th grade but iim kinda good, anyways.

Rock an roll dude you fuckin awesome

[kelsall1995]

Mate, thats an amazing cover. I bin playing for years but i don't think i could ever play it that well

[rightsideup40619]

That is a shitload of cymbals O.o

[Guitar1hero23]

absolutely AWESOME!!!!!

[superjoesakic91]

Just awesome, I play the drums but have only had about 10 hours of total practise so far, (its my dads drum set) so I'm only still in the noise making stages but I can't wait till I start picking up songs by ear and can only hope I can play half as good as this one day soon.

[socom908]

Damn I love the sound coming of those Zildjian Crashes

Keep it up man!

[Venerabela]

Killer drum solo! Rock on!

[tunninglp]

hey, it's a very good drum cover for that song.. what's your drum set and cymbals?

[heartsno1fan]

man for me not only was this an amazing drum performance, the fact it woz dedicated to someone close to you made me almost cry.i hope One day all of us will be as free as birds flying in the sky without any worries or miseries

[ZIGGIEZAGG]

who the hell are the 7 who pressed the dislike button

[Mr4ever7]

OMG you're really fucking good in the drums!! I like so much from 7:00 to the end!!

[Poehring]

Oh My God....Dude...Seriously? I play the Guitar...but My passion is for the drums...When I watch this..I picture myself playing this...Ive played once in my life and I'm 27 years old, but dammit I will be this good one day...outstanding performance. Inspiration. Keep it up brotha.

[ddrumbum]

@Poehring Thank you so much man, truly appreciate it.

[HordeFTL]

@Poehring Dude I'm the same! I've been playing guitar for many years but have always dreamed about being a drummer, I've played drums a few times but I am seriously thinking about converting

[Poehring]

@HordeFTL YEah man. I will always have a love for my Guitar, and will never stop playing it, but once I find a house for Rent, or Rent-To-Own...you better believe, it's on!

[TheDrummerAlex]

WOW this is emence. just amazing, great song, great drums, great guy, well done

[Brftigersfan24]

this is probely one of the best drum covers i have heard because you play this almost perfectly!!! what brand mics are you using? what brand is you snare and where did you get it?! it sounds awesome!!!

[ddrumbum]

@Brftigersfan24

Thank you very much. I use CAD pro 7 mic set. The snare drum is a 14x6.5 Sonic Snare drum, that I can't seem to find anymore, and IO absolutely love mine.

[Brftigersfan24]

@ddrumbum

Cool I accually just ordered that mic set bout a week ago!! I hope they sound as good as they do here!! I REALLY like your cymbals! what brand are they and where did you get them?

[AudioArcademusic]

@Brftigersfan24

Cool, you will like them. I have Zildjian A Custom & K Customs. As well as Dream Bliss series cymbals. I purchased them from all over, just shopped around for the best price.

[espChris93]

good quality. In most covers the recording is usually drowning out what the player is doing or vice versa but you did a great job of both playing and recording the song when some people sometimes focus on one or the other

[petrelli199]

dude i wish i could take lessons with you bro.......masterfull

[gbagsandwich]

i think you could become president if you played this song as you were running for office this is fucking amazing!

[sikairo94]

*-* 6:35 so cool! yeeaah!'
