Like my other clips, this is a loose cover, not intended to be a duplication of the original drum track. I can clone when necessary; but I'm alone, so I like doing my gut feel on how a tune moves for me.

I used to be on the road non-stop, no day job. But that was over 18 years ago. When I got off the road I stopped playing entirely and only recently got my drums from storage and set them up (couple or 3 years ago). Nowadays I play once every few weeks or so. I'd like to start playing a little every day again. Actually I've been kicking around the idea of getting in some local band here in St. Louis to play a few weekends. There's NOTHING like playing drums on stage, surrounded and inundated by sound pressure, a big audience getting off on it. I do miss that feeling a lot.

Anyway, I've seen how brutal some of these drummers are when commenting on other players on YouTube. Go easy on me fellas, haha, I've been out of the business for almost 2 decades.

Hope you like it. I enjoyed doing it. I always love it when I play.

  • Thanks guys, very kind...:)

  • Hey cymbal king, what's that little splash

  • Haha...check my drum tours. It's a good little splash...

  • So nicely played man. That syncopation at around 2:50 onwards was real nice. Kinda reminded me a bit of Bonham.

    Keep on a Rockin' Brother

  • I appreciate it, thank you my man...:)

  • Ah, watching all of your videos all over again. Makes me want to drum, I think I've got it in the blood since my mates are killing me for fakedrumming in school. Problem is to have place for a set. Hm, will think 'bout that.

  • Thanks very much......:)
