@dashingjavi ... are you serious ... he is almost NEVER seen in public with a shirt on
-
@beatsandthings Dont know 4 sure--but given the fact that he studied from Dennis' videos, its a pretty good bet that he did
-
@beatsandthings I bet he has done that, he'd bang on anything, haha but he plays with so much wrist and finger motion, and the point of playing on a pillow is to build that up on a surface with NO rebound, so that you can work LESS when you get on a drum or cymbal and play twice as full with half the effort, cuz the stick does all the work... so in short if you want to sound like him play tons of rolls and flam accents on pillows, it worked for me, anyway

At 1:22 <------This guy has some massive forearms. Dennis Chambers does too. I guess it comes from years of playing.
-
@bfish420 I see 3 just in the related videos here.
