Rush - Tom Sawyer (Drum cover)

[jsj297]

Thats a very interesting set up you got there, (in a good way :). I didnt even notice that floor tom to the left of the Hihats til ya beat the hell outta them. lol You got those Hihats sounding pretty good too. Nice cover. Liked all the brainscratching to, thats adds some character to the video. ;)

[smoshlover97]

Only problem i spoted was that you werent opening up your hi-hats when you had to. Good job

[oppsblck]

I went to 20 other vids and this one is the best so far

good job dude make some more

[tdkz72]

Now, here is a drummer! This song is pretty hard to pull off as well as he did it!

Kudos!

[DumbAzzJason]

i wanna know why it says playing at delaware state fairgrounds? im from delaware and first of no one gives a shit about DE and for good reason half the people onhee couldnt find it on a map lol second theyve never played here

[XxCAMMANxX]

badass. keep up the good work

[hrosan]

i realy felt your feeling and this is why i liked more than your other videos!!!! VERY VERY FUCKING AMAZING

[Nioray32]

Nice Snare

[lamentfly]

what's up with the snare ? It don't sound right

[mayandyfer]

no mameyes toca el guey chido, chidoooooo

[Hammerhead786]

First: Good cover! Second: You missed all the high hat work in the beginning of the song which is some what difficult to play correctly. In the main fill 2:42 it is only two crash cymbals and back to the high hat, not 3! dadadada gsh dadadada gsh dadadada gsh gsh champo champo & back to closed high hat Third: Stop fucking with your face. It takes away from your presence. If your face itches too bad. Not while you are recording a video...EVER ! Rock on

[HenryTownsend123]

Are you crashing with a Pst5 20' Ride?

[Lattesociopati]

okay

[drummer12371]

[zike389]

[123tacobello]

lionelmes10 you obviously are jeleous of this guys skil. can you even play quarter notes on beat? my guess is not.

[jomomwashere]

Oh come on! You didn't do the hi hat work at the bginning. Where's the opening and closing!

[novajeff]

That was sick! I grew up around bands trying to play this song. All I can say is that you nailed it. Thanks for sharing!

[MrCamaro93]

[ffcpwnage]

[GhostMonkey456]

amazing

[ddurbin0789]

HOLY SHIT! 2:32-2:44 was an instant eargasm. Seriously the best cover I've seen of this song.

[guitarguy1934]

you kick ass on this song and you never missed a note great drumer

[ragnaroksama]

i prefer this version then the original 1 LOL xD

[rage5606]

[MyHugeBoxOfGames]

I listen to this and the real song at the same time. No difference whatsoever. Excellent job.

[cbesco2]

Fuuuuuuuuuckin eh

[NeilPeartRocks98]

Good job dude you fucking rock! I think that's one of the best tom sawyer drum cover but your snare sound a little bit weird in this vid.

[readingfc15]

@NeilPeartRocks98 i would say the bass sounds wierd too

[NeilPeartRocks98]

ya I know

[droppinplates84]

haha scratched your nose during that kick ass drumming

[kevin00714]

very impressive.

[petertrast]

Clean. Pure. Nice. Way to cover it without interpretation. Awesome!

[SNIP3RxHEADSHOT]

one word. flawless

[PisolMan]

no mics? then why can why can we hear your kit?

[TozeDT]

@PisolMan man, when he says no mics he's saying that the sound was just recorded on the cam mic!

when a drummer says that he has no mics it's because he only uses the camera to record!

[GotLakai686]

NIce!!! Dude, that was dope as fuck!

[SMstikx7]

lol wow i was watching your other videos and i remember watching this before

[Jaydog7507]

Great cover but correct me if im wrong but you missed the open and closed high hats on & 2 in the intro but i could just not be hearing it :p Still great though :)

[mzxn1092]

your friken awesome →┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐←

[Esteban19770]

OMG ¡¡¡¡¡¡ god of timming

[MatsEP]

That's impressive! I mean, covering the world's best drummer flawlessly.

[vettes91]

for not having mics, that sounds amazing. good job

[gingersuck911]

[Kummeedeeyin]

[ironmaiden1597531]

Sick!

[SirGod85]

great job!

[kaipakta]

Great feel man

[johnlf93]

i can personally say this song is really difficult. but if u have a couple months of practice with it you can do it. great job man!

[EpiphoneMaster1234]

awesome cover how much did that kit cost?

[croutonslayer9601]

dude, at 2:37 that tom/floor tom combo was amazing. I replayed that moment a few times. Awesome covers, dude. Btw, a suggestion. I take drum lessons and my teacher turned me onto a new sticking technique that has overall improved my speed and sound. It moves the fulcrum from your wrists to your fingers. look it up. The video lessons are online (for a price unfortunately) and i forget the instructor's name, so good luck finding it. :)

[JoaoVeludo]

stop picking your nose

[videovader101]

it's awesome! but where are the awesome little open high-hats in the beginning?

[bloodybloodshed]

Solid cover man keep it up !! :)

[ben2nd]

it was good, but straigten your back man makes you look sloppy as shit!

[MrHalodrummer]

sempre lo stesso alla fine lui nel disco lo fa sul ride non sul tom

[MrHalodrummer]

sempre lo stesso ma l'avete ascoltata bene sta canzone alla fine non usa i tom ma usa il ride

[phoenix02200]

You are my new inspiration man

[juanpabloag220]

you are awesome dude

[mrgregmcneil]

dude you kick ass

[mommytof3JCT]

is that a mapex kit? great cover

[n2112bytor2112p]

you should invest in some racks to go before the toms

[DarrenOakley]

Subscribed! lol

[4urGamingNeeds]

unbelieveable. im speechless. nailed the solo perfectly.

[NoBoxas777]

Dude... great job...

[dreadss64]

[porkdanpie]

[novembre8211]

Freakin A you're a good drummer. I do see great things in your future

[andrewface]

[thedarkside516]

[russdonruss]

Wow. Very nicely done!! First vid I've seen of Tom Sawyer that wasn't edited in 20 places!!

You have a great future ahead.... Keep up the excellent work!

[MrThacker101]

very well played dude

[oazamba]

terrible...

[lionelmes10]

shut up bitch you such balls i bet.

you could never play this you stupid fuck

[MusicThatsBackwards]

@lionelmes10 Who the fuck is this to?

[inverte1]

good job :)

[thedarkside516]

u should be Rush's drummer dude

u F^CKIN ROCK!

[MMB112009]

Do u no who Neil Peart is? No one compares to Neil.

[MattySundevils1]

proof?

[trippletsense]

seventy fucking five bro nice job!!!

[grosx2]

Simply outstanding. I hope Neil sees this...

[JBG694]

: O !!!! Amazing!

[MxC1337MxCsh43d]

Dayum dude. You're as good as Niel Peart. holy poopies. fuck

[alibaba994]

100000000000 over 10 score... you are just perfect

[bobzombo]

friggin awesome, kid. The best Tom Sawyer I've seen. Quick hands and not a Peart 'note' left out.

[MusicalAbsinthe]

@bobzombo

Look up Meytal Cohan (Chick drummer) Fuckin nails it nearly perfect..but she did leave out the second verse the 7/8 part of the song..but other than amazing abd her Almost Easy by a7x cover is spot on accurate

[Hammerhead786]

@bobzombo It was a good cover and you can't ever take fact away but there were many notes missed. Remember your trying to cover a song that is created and played by one of the best drummers who ever lived/lives.

[iBleedMusic100]

@Hammerhead786 Check the date bro.....he probably rapes this song now, and btw, neil pert is OK.....but not the greatest drummer >_>.......Mike portney can easily out play him, but i can't compare since they play different types of music. If you say neil pert is one of the best drummer of prog rock, then that would make more sense.......but no, for now, he is just an OK drummer.....and before you talk shit, yeah i play drums, and i know what im talking about. I'm only as good as Lars Ulrich

[Hammerhead786]

@iBleedMusic100 I commented on THIS video, not what he does now. Saying Neil Peart is an OK drummer is ffucckking retarded. He not only created the drumming in the many hit songs Rush has, NP has played it flawlessly time after time and Remembered it all year after year He lost his only daughter to a car accident at 19 and his wife of 22 years to cancer 10 months later. Years have gone by and he is still on the drums kicking azz. That's incredible. Comparing Mike Portnoy to NP is Compring what?

[iBleedMusic100]

@Hammerhead786 First of all, his sob story has nothing to do with his drumming. Second of all, unbelievable......you need to use curses to emphasise your speech.....real mature. As you see, i didn't need to use any kind of curse to make my point. Obvious enough, your speech tells me your just a Neil Pert fanboy, so there is no point to keep arguing with you because clearly, your just going to keep kissing up to him and fight back for him.........you must be like what....10-13?....Obvious enough.

[Hammerhead786]

@iBleedMusic100 Actually his sob story has a lot to do with his drumming. You have to be pretty amazing to keep it together at the level he's at after life events like those. I curse in real life and I curse in responses when warranted. I am a fan of Neil Peart, DUH!? Let's go back.. you said NP was an OK drummer. That's retarded. You told me to check the date of the video I commented on. Retarded again. I commented on the posted video.You said You're as good as Lars Ulrich...retarded .B/S...

[iBleedMusic100]

@Hammerhead786 Wow, its not that suprising that your still going at this.....listen, i hate arguing on youtube as much as the next guy >_> so w/e your opinion is just your opinion, and it will always be that.....AN OPINION......so you think neil pert is the best? ok, good for you. I'll keep practicing on drums, and in my opinion, Mike portney is still better. Remember smart one, ITS AN OPINION. So don't lift your balls for such a small opinion. Im only one person.

[Hammerhead786]

@iBleedMusic100 You like to argue. MY ORIGINAL QUOTE " It was a good cover and you can't ever take fact away but there were many notes missed. Remember your trying to cover a song that is created and played by one of the best drummers who ever lived/lives."

IT STILL STANDS.. NEVER SAID NP WAS THEE BEST. NEVER SAID HE WAS BETTER THAN MP. I DID SAY YOU'RE FULL OF SHIT CLAIMING YOUR AS GOOD AS LARS ULRICH. This kid doing the TS cover is good but he missed all the high hat work in the beginning...

[iBleedMusic100]

@Hammerhead786 No my friend, your the one that likes to argue. I've made my point and made a conclusion, while your still at it.

[ivanbagual]

awful go to study swing

[PaisteMaster1234]

except this song is straightahead and doesnt swing so what are you saying, its a good cover

[cluelessismyname]

this is the first song im learning how to play lol

[IGotSkills3]

good luck xD

[smattman22]

not a good first song...

[OrthotificationTV]

awesome!

[HxC740CxW]

wow amazing cover dude, like amazing. pert is a god and for you to be able to hit this cover perfectly is amazing you pulled it off soooooo well. kudos man.

[benrice003003]

what is the technique ur using with the hi-hat (to do the fast hit bit at the beggining), my drum teacher taught me it O_O

[adelsaint]

@benrice003003

I know NOTHING about drums, but I know about music and rhythm. It looks to me like he's just hitting straight 16ths on the hat. Adding in the bass and snare is what makes it so impressive. That's why Peart = God.

[HOGSTER9]

im pretty sure its called the Moeller technique (not sure on spelling) i just learned it myself

[1oSW33To1]

that cymbal in :39 is a ride cymbal

[adelsaint]

my friend's dad plays this song really good.

i love going to their house to jam with them

[benrice003003]

mmmmmmm..... jam....

[IGotSkills3]

lol

[Hollywood27KT]

dude, that was awesome and a half. you definitely have what it takes to be a damn good drummer. just keep on drumming on!

[organicmilk5]

whats the name of the cymbal in :39 that makes the 'ting ting' sound?

[IRONdonkey217]

are you fucked?

[organicmilk5]

@IRONdonkey217 yup so could u tell me the name of the cymbal plz?

[DemonFox209]

Pretty good

You just need to relax when you play

[timrs2001]

rock on!!! rush is one of the best bands ever and u play just as well!! keep it up..

[vingador131]

Very good

[andreapittaluga]

good job man

[slik204]

You missed the high-hat part in the beginning...... Other than that, flawless.

[chaseumdown]

dude that solo was MIND BLOWING you are an amazing drummer never stop drumming dude that was amazing

[kjbickens]

how do i make a video like this? what kind of camera should i use? and what kind of mics?

[StratovariusFTW]

wow the drum solo blew my mind O.O epic cover, best on youtube

[Spakeinator]

hey man i subscribed because all of your covers are top notch and perfect. it would be awesome if you could do a mic'd cover of yyz by rush!

[seansuperman]

why'd u use a tom and not a snare? it didnt sound that good

[seansuperman]

what did i say i cant even read it

[PanteraFan92192]

good shit

[hackerhooker]

Are you playing by ear... or mastered it through playing for drum notation....?

[hackerhooker]

You have really nailed it....great job.

Congrats too...it's an achievment to play this song...

[dwumminmac]

Wow if I was just listening and not watching the video I wouldnt be able to tell that you weren't Neil himself

[bamabassist1234]

whats the tom under the hihat? by the meshh of sticks

[romfohj1993]

i think it's a Pearl BRX Vintage Sunburst set :D got one myself ;) it looks very nice...

nice drumcover!

[vietboi0610]

if you dont mind me asking, what kind of drumset and how much?

[zoso94]

nice cover!

[adamcushnie]

sickkkk man

little iffy on the sound of that snare tho

[Alsta789]

I like your set .

And nice cover bro , you inspire me to be a better drummer .

[bamabassist1234]

at 0:06 fter the snare hi hat combo there should be a open hi hat strike but great cover really

[Samuelthemad]

bamabassist1234, who the fuck cares, it's awsome!:)

[theciscokid0623]

By far one of the hardest songs to ever drum to but you nailed it man. Good job!

[kylegreg6]

whats up with your snare. your a good drummer and you need a good snare

[0XpunkeR0]

AWESOME AT 2:30

[explodingpimp]

Everything is awesome. Your playing, you drumset, cymbals, technique, everything except your snare.

[SuperTamalero]

excelente... muy pulido tu cover. felicitaciones.

[xxsoldierxx123]

THAT WAS SWEET GOOD JOB

[Igrandov]

great job dude! you kick ass! just 1 question: why do u need 2 hi-hats?

[pdoughnut96]

cause its cool.......so you can have one open at all times and control able

[TruPower22]

Two high hats is so one can be loose, to get a different sound.

[uzing76]

he has 2 snares to

I'm thinking he had a old drum set or

old hit hat

[metalguitarist11]

great job

[TheTrueSatanist]

That Drum solo was awesome

[MrNewtontrent]

great song, awesome cover, horrible quality...

PROPS
