Anyone wanna jam with this drummer?

Sign in to disble this ad
this drummer is at the wrong gig

He does some funny stuff but never misses a beat. It looks like the pills kick in as the song progresses.

No problem, man. I didn't mean to sound like a dick, I was just teasing ya. It's just kind of funny cause it's been continuously posted for about 10 months now . Still, it's a hilarious video.

This is my 4 year old son's favorite video ever. He plays his bass (Ibanez Mikro) along with it, but he's always watching the drummer.

After watching it multiple times per day, it can get old - but at least my little guy is getting a lot out of it and I already know he's picking up on "groove" as he plays his eighth-notes with nearly perfect alternating finger plucking technique.

Seriously that drummer should be in a really good Rockabilly band.

Never saw it before. It's hilarious! Looks like he is letting out a lot of aggression.

I think OP's drummer is pretty cool, more than one heavy metal drummer does the same thing though, the suit flailing around adds to the touch/camp.
