I've been playing Drums since I was 10 years old, most of which has just been recreational. However, in 1992 at age 16, my band, Caines Fabel, was signed to an Independent Record Label in Champaign, IL called "Hammerhead Records." We released a 45rpm record that was distributed nationwide to various college radio stations. Nothing much came out of it but it was an awesome experience and records are still being sold today online.
Recently I started a Podcast called "The Biz Reveal" which is on all Podcast apps and on my Podcast RUclips channel at: ruclips.net/channel/UCGaN0rAbNh6aXJjDU9nqGmA . It is a Podcast focused on the interests of business owners and entrepreneurs.
Professionally, I own a Health Insurance agency where I focus primarily on helping the self-employed, independent contractors, freelancers, and business owners obtain affordable health coverage. If you are looking for better options, please check out my website at: www.sawyerhealthsolutions.com.

i like the drum sounds...not the cymbals so much
How do you remove the ski pole to cover it
You don't. The pole is permanent. The boat cover stops just in front of that and snaps down. There is no need to remove it.
@craigsawyer818 yes we figured that out just now. Can the canopy lay completely down?
@@christyhatton109 yes, it can. But i don't think we've ever out it all thebway down except when Hurricane Ian came through last year. No need to otherwise.
@craigsawyer818 can you explain how to lay it. We tried backwards and the pole was in the way. So does it lay down forward?
@@christyhatton109 not really. I've had the boat for 3 years and have only laid it down once, so I can't remember a step by step if how I did it, or even if it's supposed to or not.
Awesome cover! What's your opinion on the alesis pro? Your channel seems to be one of the few that isn't an ad for the kit so I was wondering if it's worth the price tag
Awesome kit, can I ask what kind of beaters you use?
Nice cover, I also have the same alesis strike pro se drum kit, can I ask what kind of sound did you put on the snare and the Toms? I really like the sound I would like to try to put it in mine too, thank you
Are you sure
Am I sure about what??? Yes I'm sure that I am not playing it exactly the way that it is recorded on the original track. It is this your attempt to be clever?
Excellent cover mate 🔥!! I just posted one from Journey too. I invite you to check out my cover. Cheers man!!!
That was awesome 👏🏻
Thank you!
Hi ...can i ask you what kind of kit you use?...Create to you o preset?
Hi Craig, I'm looking at getting this Alesis kit and really liking the sounds that you can get from it. Thanks for posting your videos as it's really helping me decide if this kit is worth it. How are you getting the original songs without the drum track. Are you editing them yourself or are you able to find them online somewhere? Thanks for your time :)
You'll love this kit...it's so much fun! I play along to songs on RUclips that I find without drum tracks. Most are recorded from the XBOX game "Rock Band." But you can also download different apps to get drumless tracks to play along to.
😪 𝖕𝖗𝖔𝖒𝖔𝖘𝖒
Didnt even finish the vid and Id like to say great cover and sound!
Thank you!
Great job! AIC songs are fun to play!
Yes they are...thank you!
Nice work! In the pocket and great sound and tone!
Thank you!
Ayy this was uploaded the day i turned 18 lets go!
Happy Birthday!!!
Nice cover drumm
Thank you!
Very nice. I used to play this awhile back. Wat are you using to record with ?
In the video description
I need a kit like yours, how much would it cost?
You can buy this kit for about $3,500
Job well done
Sounds really good and awesomely played to Craig!!🤘🤘
Thank you! 😊
How come your cymbals can turn?
As basic as can be played.
Yep. Thank you for your comment.
Craig, I own the Alesis Nitro Mesh SE and use EZ Drummer 3 for covers. What does your setup consist of? Great playing!😁👍
I'm not sure I understand your question. Are you asking about the kit? It's pretty clear to see the set up in the video.
Good cover dude, love this song, I find it easier to play, for me, left hand hat, right snare/toms, less crossing over , but love the kit too
Definitely, and that is the way it is originally played. I just haven't gotten my coordination to that point to be able to play it as originally recorded. I just do the best with the talent that I have to this point. Still working on the left hand hi-hat thing.
@@craigsawyer818 no it's good, wasn't bashing by any means really, I've been playing over 40 years and that's a tough one to get down, took me awhile to get the backwards playing down, lol. Truth be told, I still don't have the bell strikes down like the original, lol
@@jddrummer66 yeah, I think he threw that stuff in there just to screw up guys like us 40 years later. Lol
@@craigsawyer818 lmao, right, his jazz background didn't help either, truly an amazing drummer, he was very overlooked back then I think
They definitely stole your ss prop off the boat and gave you an aluminum prop. Either they are thiefs or you live in a shallow water area.
First, no one stole anything off my boat, I custom ordered it as you see it here. Second, we live in SW Florida around shallow water and stainless steel props are not good to have in shallow water. Third, you just made yourself look like a jackass by being so rude.
What Kit number was that if you don't mind ? I just set mine up this weekend,,,,
I put all of that info in the video description. It's kit #61-Snappy Snare with some added reverb.
Excellent!
Thank you!
Sounds great Craig! I also have an Alesis Strike SE and was wondering if you used a preset kit or one of your own for this song.
This was a preset kit. It is #55 Rocker Man and all I did was add a few reverb effects.
Really good!!
Thank you!
The Best!
Craig outside of price does this set compare to Roland????
I haven't personally played a Roland set, but from what I've seen/read, the Alexis Strike Pro SE is VERY comparable and even better when it comes to sound samples and playability. The biggest area I've seen that the Roland is superior is in durability for travel. Apparently the Roland is built a little tougher and may be better for you if you play a lot of gigs where you have to tear down, pack up, travel, set up, etc a lot.
awesome playin'! I love the strike pro SE, love the sound! gotta try that kit next time I practice, I like the birch kit, and of course big bird! IMO best kit for the $!
Great playing!
Thank you!
Good job man! The kit sounds so good, the snare 🔥 🥁👊🏻
Thank you!
Great lookin set up!
Good Job My lider

Love this song!!!!!!! Great Job!!!!! 😎👌
Thank you!
Great Drumming!!!!! 👌 New subb!!!!! Keep up your great work! 🤘
Thank you!
I’ve been looking for that set where did you get it from
I bought mine at Sweetwater.com
@@craigsawyer818 thanks man I’m keep looking into it, I’ve already got a Ludwig kit from them there awesome people
Fantastic cover , what you think to the kit?
Thank you! I absolutely love this kit! I've been playing for over 30 years but never really played often since I was in my early 20s. With this, I can put my headset on and experiment with the different sounds. Also has great effects controls. Highly recommended!
@@craigsawyer818 thank you for the swift reply, you got some great videos, I've only looked at the roland yet
You sound amazing!!! You should get a acoustic kit
Why?
Awesome! You should add a foot cam! 🤙🏼
