Jim Kilpatrick(2)

A video excerpt from The College of Piping and CoP TV website. I do not have any affliations with them or whatsoever, just thought I would share this amazing video of Kilpatrick to everyone.

I just watched a Travis Barker video....... He is not even in the same area code as Jim Kilpatrick, let alone ball park or league. Jim Kilpatrick does with one hand what Travis Barker can't do with two.

I know it's asking a lot, but I swear to God I want to sit back, relax, and watch some awesome drumming on youtube without some virgin Travis Barker fanboy saying something stupid.

Travis Barker shouldn't even be allowed to watch drumming like this.

End of story.

Travis Barker isnt even good enough to wipe this guys ass...

[thebagpipehero]

Could I ask what hand position snare drummers find better? I dont know the hand position names but is Jim's left or right hand position better?

@SilentMutinyDundee ...My mouth almost hit the floor after I read this...I dont care if you Love Travis, and he is your BIGGEST influence (which is fine w/me)................but to say argueably the best drumset drummer ever?..........here's my arguement; Bissonette, S.Phillips, R. Morgenstein, Weckl, Colaiuta, S.Smith, Jojo, Gavin, T. Sucherman, Peart, Mangini, Castronovo, Lang, Minnemann, Alex V.H., Keith Carlock, Donati........and so on IMO blow Travis out of the water....check em out!!

@Capacity2005 Well, that's nice...but don't misquote...I never slated any other drumming style, just individuals on this site who talk shit. I have done plenty of drumming myself and whilst I appreciate all drumming. I stick to what I say as being true that pipe band drumming is the most technical, hands down. There ain't an argument out there that could ever change my wind on that..

[Capacity2005]

@Roddo08 I agree that Pipe band drumming is the most musical on the planet (I'm a pipe band drummer myself) but to say it's the most technical is bullshit, it's just another style in the rudimental drumming family. I have learnt more from the many American rudimental styles in a few years then I did for 8 years with pipe band drumming, but it doesn't mean either style is better. Alex Durthart always said drummers should learn from each other, internet slating of drumming styles is for wankers.

@maevealiciousawesome kilpatrick would violate niel peart...all top elite scottish side drummers would...stop dreaming. You and all your kit drumming fan club can say what you want...but scottish snare drumming is the most technical and with the most musicality on the planet - period. It is just that kit drumming has a million times bigger following, that's all.

@dj3ntz He is the best because he doesnt play like many other drummers to show off he plays in a way to compliment the music. And albeit it can be simple compared to other drummers what he does compliments the music brilliantly.

Its the exact same principle that comes to side drumming. Jim Kilpatrick is amazing here yes. BUT the thing that makes him arguably the best side drummer ever isn't that. But his ability to compliment the music to an incredible standard.

[dj3ntz]

@SilentMutinyDundee barker doesn't even come close to the best kit player on the planet. god, he's so far down the list I can't even imagine it! explain to me why you think he is the best kit drummer... I honestly cannot fathom why you are saying this...

[SilentMutinyDundee]

@dj3ntz i am saying they are different styles and it is impossible to compare in their various types of drumming they are briliant which is undeniable! They are different styles thus kilpatrick may be a superior drummer in ability but barker is still a brilliant kit drummer and arguably the best kit drummer on the planet.
