Well done! Neil would be proud! I'm 62, live in Northern Minnesota and play on a Mapex 30th anniversary limited edition garnet flame maple set. Cymbals are two crash, two splash, two trash and two Chinas, one holy China, one flat. Double kick pedals are yamaha direct drive. I mostly play metal so it's a lot of double kicking. It definitely keeps you in shape, but my stamina is lacking, lol My day job as a painter keeps me in shape, but gets in the way too because I'm worn out some days when I get home. Also shoveling and blowing snow in the winter when it's -20 outside get in the way because I just want to curl up in a blanket afterwards haha, I just need to retire, move somewhere warm and play drums!
That's a wicked kit. I am in the Toronto area so not the kind of winters you see in Minnesota. I've been doing this hot workout for years and my wife got me the infrared heater to make it a full-on hot-room program. I enjoy it and the dogs aren't freaked out so it works for everyone. Good luck to your Vikings :)
@@HotDrumming @ Detroit Joe Louis Arena. Sadly, no longer standing as it was torn down....but the memory last a life time. I was fortunate to see Geddy & Alex up close as they walked past me in a bar in Royal Oak, MI before going on the air with WRIF 101 FM the night of the Roll The Bones Tour.....pure luck & timing
Audio would sound like crap with all the pads and rubber...and my wife would confirm just that :) This is workout while getting great practice - in a house full of creatures who don't want to hear a Rush concert in the basement. The heater makes it "like" hot yoga but far more active. As a drummer, you know when you're on and when your not when playing this way. Cheers Natural Science:)
@ yeah I totally get that. It’s hard to be a Drummer in a house full of non-musicians. Could you take the audio out from your drum system and record that into logic or GarageBand and mix that with the original? Just for fun. If you’re mostly in it for the workout and the syncopation, then who cares right… just have fun!
@@NaturalScienceRushTribute Exactly. I have an e-kit I can also use and put both music and kit through a mixer. I just prefer to practice on this kit since I am in a band and it's nice to practice on the same kit you use live. It's not a Rush tribute but we do play New World Man and Limelight.
If by "It looks great" you mean then thanks:) The kit is muted so my family doesn't have to listen to rock concert...but that just means I can play hard and can totally feel if I am on. It is a workout as much as drum practice. Not so bad only hearing Neil. That's all I hear and he likely sounds better than me:) Cheers.
Very nice!
Nicely done Alan!
very nice bro

Nice performance
Thank you!
Excellent JOB! First Rush concert I ever saw was the Subdivisions Tour!!!!
OMG...mine too! Twice in Toronto then Buffalo. I was hooked two albums earlier but could finally afford it for Signals.

Where is your drum audio?

It looks great but all I hear is Neil. You hit that china cymbal and it made no sound.

@HotDrumming I mean yeah, it looks like you're playing all the right stuff! Just wish I could hear it.
Ridiculous.
It's a great workout. Not easy after 60 but it works for me. Cheers.
