[lucidlark]

[XxStrongDrums1996xX]

@lucidlark Only it doesn't.

[MrBamn]

Im sorry hold up i know Im not trippin but is that a 6 inch tom I never in my life seen a 6 inch tom !

[NerfLad]

@MrBamn It sure is!

[Brok3nCarlos]

fuck off DW. stop endorsing every single fucking drummer in the world

[supe1rduper2dude3]

what an appropriate shirt

[LoserMcBeaver]

He is the flash!

[vfdrummer1]

wow those drums sound fresh

[isaacdrums23]

hes great

[slangster]

I hope this was a joke, because this was so not cool!

[TheDuskVoid]

@theSWclan. Exactly, that's what is crazy! This man plays doubles on a single pedal with the speed of double pedal and SMILES like it is nothing...

[TheBorntooloose]

Drumming is not an Olympic sport

[daviddmo]

@TheBorntooloose Drumming just like any other instrument is about expressing yourself in the way YOU want

[RequiemDrums]

Whaaaaat??

The a custom crash and the k custom crash sound the same!!

[TheDuskVoid]

I love this guy… Crazy double bass + doubles on the snare… Crazy…

[theSWclan]

@TheDuskVoid i only see one pedal bro

[Kierank30]

@TheDuskVoid LOL the funny thing is hes not using a double base, hes using a single base. Thats just how awesome he is

[NikudemusProductions]

sounds like a bunch of noise

[3qzrw41]

aaron spears is there too

[guilhermeschwertner]

0:34 Super Fart

[frixlm]

holymotherfuck

[ricohorton]

nice single pedal and hands technique. looks like dw 9000.

[ddrums001]

His smallest drum is called Rata toms. They're DW octobans. The good thing about rata toms you can order them to match your drumkit. Pearl makes them too but they only come in black or white.

[garrettgerbil13]

i just met him an hour ago in guitar center

[Bokee234]

wtf?

[JonnyNowYo]

What is that smallest tom-tom called in this drumset?

[CrawfordDrummer]

@JonnyNowYo Tama makes them in sets of 4 in 6", with 2 sets u can purchase called octobans, but i think the general term is tube toms

[KarlLeipzig]

@JonnyNowYo its called small tom tom :)

[thahaitianprince]

@KarlLeipzig it is a regular 8" tom.

[JPA301]

@thahaitianprince Actually its a 6" rocket tom XD

[laydeezman217]

can someone explain to me what is going on at :18!?

[et720]

@laydeezman217 Pretty sure its just doubles on the bass and floor tom...He does the same thing at :06

[drummerthekid12]

am i the only one who find it ironic that he is wearing a flash t-shirt?

[drointhedrawer]

whoever says this doesn't sound good is a dumbass and need to check out different genres of music or take classes

[777fordGT]

best shirt ever

[hultizen]

it dosent sound good because the just playing att every thing on the set lol

[carabata64]

son lo peor....

[phildrummer]

thats a filthy right foot

[soulplatos]

the toms sound like crapolio!!!!

[drum6banger]

love that single pedal double kick

[abucket888]

sounds like animal off the muppets is playing

[jcason21]

man he lost so much weight but he still a beast

[MrGretsch101]

i love the way he jumped up when he hit the crash at 0.37

[nickfromdtown1992]

i like him. but i like his set more

[pitt32671]

I always crack up at the pure immaturity in these comments. i wish everyone would stop comparing drummers and fighting over it. Music is art ! everyone is different ! How can somone say this guy is better than they other guy ...bla bla bla ! GROW UP !! LEARN ABOUT MUSIC ! AND STOP IT PLEASE !!

[ddrums001]

Dude! you need to put what you just said on a billboard! Comparing drummers to other drummers is.......STUPID!!

[grooverooster]

@pitt32671 thank you. i dont get why people argue about who the "best" drummer is when clearly every drummer plays differently and interprets the music in their own way. there are the travis barker/joey jordison/lars ulrich douchebags then theres the still living in the seventies neil peart pricks. these people will argue to the death about who the best drummer is when they could be practicing.

[simaojoseph]

@pitt32671 the thing to do is ignore; like i'm not doing right now.

[sonnymosh]

He'll save every one of us

[80sheadbanger963]

reminds me of tony royster jr.

[pdrums777]

you mean tony reminds you of gerald,,

[inimicalODDITY]

Haha hilarious dude

[ilooklikeppl]

damn this was like one of those porno teasers, right when it gets good the logo pops up tellin you to sign up...

[LzKidd]

HAHAHAHAH

[j10p31c]

@ilooklikeppl it got good when it started.

[cheemooo]

I thought the same thing when i saw it lol gave you the thumbs up for the laugh!

[enzomdrums]

mannnn i love you drum channell haha

[Metalmellenium]

The speed is impressive but there is alot more to drumming then just speed, like in jazz drumming its about independence and dynamics

[mexicanstorm]

yeah, with so many great players in one room, you'd figure they'd do more jamming together instead of just trading rolls and random beats, though there are a few moments where they play together.

[yrugbb]

neil pearts playing is totally different its actually low energy. gerald has way more energy not just speed!!!

[SOAD525]

hes just fast... i dont like it

now what about that neil peart... huh hes the best

[DrumMeema]

....idiot

[Andythefunkman]

I love the foot technnique of Gerald H. He is so fast with his right foot and that´s a good key to do great fills and grooves....well playing very good.

thanks DC. great page ever!

[ddrums001]

His hand/foot combination is off the freakin charts!!

[Jevildury]

[Moog167]
