  • @AaronSpears Hey man, what stickes are you using here? By the way, I think you're the best drummer out there, and your my idol :D keep it up dude :))))

  • Ok Aaron so now tell me how and why should I keep learning drums ?

    It's amazing, really. Hope one day I'll meet you, and maybe you would teach me some of your great fills.

  • Seems like he's rushing a little in this performance.

  • Aaron this is why you will always be my favorite drummer. You play what the song calls for and I bet Usher appreciates that
