Tommy is 12 years old and he's autistic. This video was taken two years ago when he picked up the stix and went OFF! We were amazed and ... all » hope you enjoy the video. Please be sure and send Tom a shout out by rating his video and leaving him a comment. Peace and blessings to all!

  • Good job

  • Wow, amazing...Great work ! When is he going on the road ?

  • @TheAutisticGuitarist it's okay. i already feel stupid anyways : /. i guess i should never listen to teachers on what they tell you.

  • @candykisses443 or he learned it by taking lessons. just because you see an autistic person play an instrument well doesn't make them a savant. it most likely means the practice a lot. i apologize if i sound rude. i just felt the need to point that out.

  • good to see a fellow autistic musician rocking out. keep it up bro. you will be truely great one day.

  • this autistic child is a savant because of his talent. he might have heard it from a song and than played it on the drums i'm not sure

  • this kids awesome

    

  • make sure he wears ear plugs!

  • @Disturbed6001 People with autism can be really smart with things they're interested in. For example, I have Aspergers and Im getting an A+ in Spanish.

  • i have two autistic sons and now i want to see what happens if i give mine stixs, already seen some amazing things, reading at 3, and things like that. wonder what other things they can do that i have no idea they can, or maybe neither do they. wish there was such a place to go to just run them down an assembly line of possible talents try outs. lol

  • WOW!! That is awesome did he ever have lessons? Did he practice it? That is incredible!

  • Tommy- awesome job!!!!

  • he might be a savant? u never know but was very good

  • i play the drums to and it sounds like hes doing an awesome job at it keep it up and maybe you can find a guitar player and a singer and start a band.ROCK ON!

  • Tommy, that was absolutely awesome. I hope that you enjoy drums and use this unbelievable inborn talent. I love what and how you played. Peace!!!

  • good job, Tommy.

    you should do 'In the Air Tonight' by Phil Collins.

  • Great Job Tommy. I am a folk musician/singer/songwriter; I also have Aspergers, a type of autism. I sing song I wrote, I accompany myself with accoustic guitar or piano. 3 autism awareness songs. Many song in concern over healthcare crisis.

    THIS AUTIE WANTS TO HELP MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE FOR US AUTIES.
