Hey guys it's Ricky Ficarelli with a new drum cover of Still YDG'n by Of Mice and Men. This band is so awesome, I had to do something different and thought it might be cool taking this one out of the studio. Was a blast makin' this one, hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did!

My Kit: I am playing a Shine Drums, Select Custom Maple Series 12x9, 14x14, 16x16, 22x18, 14x6.5 White Sand Sparkle.

My cymbals: are Zildjian "A" Custom, consisting of 14" hats, 16 & 18" crash, 10" splash, 20" Ride and an 18" china.

My sticks, (what's usually left of 'em) are Pro-Mark 5B

Audio Recording: The microphones I use are Digital Reference. I record using 7 drum microphones in all, consisting of 2 DR-HX1 Condenser mics for my overheads, 4 DR-STX1 Snare/Tom mics and 1 DR-KX1 Kick Drum mic. My microphones are run via 7 / 20ft Prolink Ultraflx Monster Cables into my interface, which is an Alesis io/26. From there it goes direct to my computer via firewire. For mixing and mastering I am using Steinberg Nuendo III.

Video Recording: The videos are recorded using Canon 60D cameras and Apple Final Cut II for editing software.

My Team: I have been blessed with some awesome people in my life and when it comes to getting these covers done... without the help of my friends, Bobby Keegan (Director Extraordinaire), Lucas Marchesani, Kelley Randall and my mix mystro Matt Feldner, it could not happen! You guys are awesome!!

  • love how the china sounds!

  • @ILuvGreenDayX I can understand that do not worry=) i mean if you play it outside, you must give to the listeners reality as possible as you can, just detail:)

  • I prefer Luke Holland

  • that awkward moment when you see someone playing the drums in the middle of nowhere..

  • @SerdarVatansever Thats cuz he recorded it in studio, and then recorded the video, and then synced the tracks. There is bound to be a little discontinuity.

  • at 02:10 you can hear the left hand hitting the middle china, but we see there hi-hat hittings.

  • dude.......Great job on showing versatility this cover is beast

  • You're a good drummer Ricky but this definitely isn't your best cover...

  • @NewbieDrumming Listen to the song without drums and each verse before the chorus has half speed on snare
