He was 53 years old when this was filmed so I would say that's damned impressive! Lemmy was our Battlefield Commander of Rock and Mikkey D was his artillery.
+keefriff99 I'm not even the biggest Motorhead fan (though I love what I've heard over the years I just didn't know these guys names) and I think that's awesome. I feel bad that I haven't ever really taken time to really listen to and get to know the band. I do know that Lemmy wrote a lot of my favorite Ozzy tunes and was an incredible character.
Lemmy said let there be the best drummer in the world, along came mickey, and lemmy saw that his drumming was good and lemmy was pleased at what he spoke into existence
There are MANY more technical drummers, but most of them are not for metal and not very heavy, having smaller cymbals, tom toms - also hitting fairly soft. Within the metal genre Mikkey Dee is among the better ones. It's a lot about the audible milliseconds. The precise grooving and heaviness.
I can say for certain that Mikkey has breathed new life into every project he's entered, the latest proof of that being the Scorps. They were ready to retire in 2015. Now, they're having more fun than ever and saying "we'll see what happens." Their concerts are more explosive than ever before, probably even more than when Rarebell was behind the kit.
How those drum heads don't explode from his power playing I'll never know! Most importantly he doesn't lose technique from his power-hitting! Amazing drummer my favourite with Charlie Benante and Dave Lombardo!
I've seen a lot of drummers in all my years of living on this planet and I rank him in the top he is one of the best performers and great a guy with good attitude.🤘
Just saw him on AXIS on the "Clean Your Clock" tour and he was jamming. I said; who the heck is this guy. I know talent when I see and hear it and this dude was (is) a powerhouse. Very powerful drummer and had a very cool double bass shuffle going on in the first song. He rocks!
Without a Doubt one of the Greatest Percussionists ever in any type of music, and a very Cool person in General. Lemmy was Blessed to have Mikkey as his Drummer and Friend.
I saw a show with Motorhead, Dio and Iron Maiden at the Tweeter Center outside of Chicago. Mikkey was really under the weather, Lemmy said to the crowd that Mikkey had a 100 degree fever and basically felt like crap. You could never tell it by the way he played, he still smoked the kit and kicked ass for the whole set. The consummate professional. Keep rockin' bro, you're awesome.
To me and i can clearly say by many, Mikkey is the best rock band drummer of all time. No one can keep up with him. Atleast what i know, if you found someone better, please tell me.
Crazy Lemmy played the 11th of December 2 weeks before he died. You could ask for much more; to last as long as he did and play up till the end. RIP Lemmy. I met Dee and Lemmy 4-20-2002 at the Birchill Sayreville New Jersey. Mikkey and Lemmy stepped out on the deck for some air outside. Lemmy was cool with me, Mikkey seemed a bit paranoid of me lol 😂;) Mikkey kicks ass , good luck brother!¡!
Here is something that blew me away. Ball of Fire a 1941 film.Drummer and bandleader Gene Krupa performed the song onscreen with his band. In an unusual twist, he also played it on a matchbox with matches for drumsticks. Some of the style that Mikkey Dee is the same as Gene Krupa.
I've actually decided to learn alot of this gentleman's drum grooves and fills and man been applying them to the judas priest and metallica and the other plethora of material and man, it's really added more joy to what I've been playing. Honestly I'd love to see Mikkey tackle some Metallica material. It probably be way to easy for him live but I'd be okay with it just for one set
He’s not as respected in the drum world as he should be. Incredible.
He was 53 years old when this was filmed so I would say that's damned impressive! Lemmy was our Battlefield Commander of Rock and Mikkey D was his artillery.
Such a powerhouse of a drummer...one of the hardest hitters in the business and criminally underrated. It's great to see Mikkey playing again.

Zidders - You've heard Mikkey in the King Diamond band too?
AmericanThunder Love King Diamond.
keefriff99 tell me who underrates the master mikkey?
When he plays overkill, it is epic!
one of the BEST drummer on this Planet. I was 16x on Motörhead shows and his Solo was everytime so PERFECT an GREAT !

Such a solid drummer..... underrated big time...
the best drummer in the world!
@John Holter lemmys knew it better than you ;)
@Sentry service Service you understand it man!
lemmy said he's the best drummer in the world. I totally agree.
Lemmy said let there be the best drummer in the world, along came mickey, and lemmy saw that his drumming was good and lemmy was pleased at what he spoke into existence
one of the most underrated drummer. he plays awesome.
Im watching this and waiting for Lemmy to kickstart the continuation of In The Name Of Tragedy... he will never do again... R.I.P. our leader ♠
And one of the greatest drum intros of all time!! "welcome home" need I say anymore..
The best drummer in the world "Mikkey Dee"! Rip Lemmy!!
Anthony Oliver Lars Urlich is best. In my opion.

@@juliuszarsky9991 Hahahaha nooooo 🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻
a powerhouse of a drummer that always made my day seeing him live.
also a gentleman to meet and talk with.
Who cares what these "technical" drummers say this dude has a ton of feel, groove, and timing it works well.
well he is very technical too
Perfect tempo, perfect touch, perfecto vomume, And ...Groove for everywhere... \m/
Hes only hated because he's not philthy animal Taylor

"Not a million techincal things". Proceeds to do pitch perfect double stroke rolls at 4:50 and onward. You're modest, Mr. Dee, and I love it.
Mikey D. is a beast..the absolute best drummer.
He is so powerful, accurate ,musical and just so interesting and fun to watch.
hello ma’am how are you doing today, it’s nice meeting you on here.
He brought back some drum riffs from the legendary Abigail In Concert 1987 tape solo
was thinking exactly the same thing :)
I loved his style in Motorhead, to me he always looked like he was about to murder the shit out of those drums, you get me? Awesome drummer
He's the master of the drums.
I love this guy... solid like a rock! Pure hammer hands!
Him and Nicko are two of the best out there . You can see in both drummers there feel and passion for playing .
Love the snare rolls c. 4.30, big band vibe!
I hate drum solos, but when it comes to Mikkey Dee, it is another story.
I like listening and watching him play.
It’s just like thunder rolling!
followed Mik all his career, its Neil and Mik true legends,
F****g Mikkey Dee - Powerhouse and a f****g LEGEND ! May he live forever !
Heavy rock oriented, yet rudimental and interesting to the public, thats the hole point of a good show solo. Great drummer
Fantastic this drummer is not human !!!

Mikkey is a pure beast! Saw him with Scorpions at Copenhell 2016, absolutely beastmode!
best Drummer in the world LEMMY 4-ever
Mikkey is so down to earth and cool.
How those drum heads don't explode from his power playing I'll never know! Most importantly he doesn't lose technique from his power-hitting! Amazing drummer my favourite with Charlie Benante and Dave Lombardo!
