Dream Theater - A Change of Seasons

EDIT:

26,000 views...you people are crazy :D

It's been just over two years since I first posted this, and I have since bought a drumkit (for those of you calling me poor) and I can play the song, without all the mistakes that I make here. The hard part is finding a decent camera and recording equipment :)

/edit

Firstly, this is a fairly difficult song. So forgive all the mistakes you happen to spot. Secondly, this is the Live Scenes from New York version of ACOS. I use this because i've always felt that this version had much more life than the album version, and Portnoy's drumming is much more dynamic. Enjoy.

PS. Recently added annotations just to show exactly how this kit is set up :)

hey cool man, that's what I daily did before I got my drumkit :D btw.: very nice drumming. I guess there are many who couldn't even do this on a real drumset

[Darkinners]

who say you need a drums set to practice?

[duhdfgh]

This is really cool dude.

[Tanax13]

Silent practice in its best form

GO BuY a Drum Kit Dude ! xD

[GeorgiosZaimis]

Nice video! I like the way you groove! I do the same thing sometimes, drumming in the air!... :-)

[diogobfonseca]

Basically what fernandopriest said to you 1 year ago was that you are the best drummer playing DT he had ever seen. He can't believe you don't have a drum set. You're the best example for all those suckers who say they can't learn how to play drums because they don't have one. Congratulations. You're the man!

And the only reason I cared enough to translate what he had written is because you really are the man! That was awesome, dude!

[nindszone]

i do the same think xd

[KazeReload]

ahahahah strange but.. I like it xD I tried to do the same thing too.. even if I'm a guitarist, I love drum! You would surely be good with a real and nice drum kit :)

[lienqwe]
