About This Cover: Katy Perry is Awesome and I have been receiving so many request for Teenage Dream that I just had to give it a try. I love her music and it is so much fun to play!!

Drummers, please note that as with all my covers, I never look to be 100% accurate to the original drums or just hold down a steady groove. I view this (and my other covers) as kind of an individual mini performance. My goal is always to enjoy the song and play it the way that I am feeling it... and that's what I did!! I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did playing it!!

My Kit: is a Shine Drums, Select Custom Maple Series 12x9, 14x14, 16x16, 22x18, 14x6.5 White Sand Sparkle. My double bass peddle is the Iron Cobra Power Glide.

My Cymbals are Zildjian "A" Custom, consisting of 14" hats, 16" & 18" crash, 10" splash, 20" Ride and an 18" china.

My sticks, (what's left of 'em) are Vic Firths 5B

Audio Recording: The microphones I use are Digital Reference. I record using 7 drum microphones in all, consisting of 2 DR-HX1 Condenser mics for my overheads, 4 DR-STX1 Snare/Tom mics and 1 DR-KX1 Kick Drum mic. My microphones are run via 7 / 20ft Prolink Ultraflx Monster Cables into my interface, which is an Alesis io/26. From there it goes direct to my computer via firewire. For mixing and mastering I am using Steinberg Nuendo III.

Video Recording: The videos are recorded using Canon Rebel T2i cameras and Apple Final Cut II for editing software.

My Team: I love to play drums, but when it comes to getting these covers done... without the help of my friends, Bobby Keegan (Director Extraordinaire), Lucas Marchesani and my mix mystro Matt Feldner, it could not happen!

[RickyFicarelli]

[BandMasters100]

I think you will be a great drummer for a rock n roll i'm disappointed

[Kicia916]

0:00- 4:22 fantastic. Gratulations. :)

[crzyrpr2000]

@LilWayneDwayne it may look that way but when he hits the cymbals they move...

[LilWayneDwayne]

@crzyrpr2000 I was talking about his latest video, which is titled "Ricky - CHRIS BROWN ft. TYGA - Holla At Me (Drum Cover)". Look at that vid then tell me about it... I love the drumming but I don't like when he's pretending.

[crzyrpr2000]

@LilWayneDwayne your sheer stupidity astounds me. he IS recording it, while playing it, then mixes in the track. it cant be that hard for you to understand.

[LilWayneDwayne]

I miss when you actually record playing rather than it is pre-recorded and you just pretend

[fadedstars17]

@RickyFicarelli I would love to go all the way tonight with you;D

[drummerboy92019]
