Playing to a drumless track of this great tune. There was a learning curve involved with Superior Drummer, which I'm triggering here (and I'm new to.) RIP Mr. Edward Van Halen!
Thanks so much! I love the sound of Alex's drums on this tune so much, so I really tried to play it like he did. Thank you for the awesome comment, I'm glad you dig it!! 🤘🤘
.Congratulations again for, this one, your covers are always of great precision, and you play true, we feel that your music makes you happy, you transmit your passion !!!
Yea man, iconic drum parts played perfectly…. This sounds like a simple song but it’s got some unusual timing… that’s kind of an AVH trademark… you totally nailed it…
Sweet Yamaha e-Kit Mike!! Sounds great and your drumming was excellent!! I see you got two modules hooked up is that hard to get it all to work properly? I subbed your channel as well!! Keep on rockin!!
Thank you so much my man! Yes 2 modules is a little tricky. One triggers Superior Drummer and one uses module sounds!! I really appreciate your kind words and awesome support!! \m/ \m/
Bro you GOTTA do 5150 next. Your kit is SCREAMING for it to be done! Shit man amazing job. Since Eddie passed, it’s been amazing to see all these people do covers, and believe it or not it eases the pain a lot. He may be gone, but all you gotta do is hit “play” on any album of theirs. You did a great job brother. Kudos
Wow, thank you for checking it out and for the AWESOME comment! Right on brother -- I'm still processing Eddie's passing too. I've mostly been digging on the DLR era, but there are some killer tracks from Van Hagar as well. Man, their music is such GOOD TIME fun rockin music... there's just nothing like it today IMO.
Awesome cover! Like the Van Halen shirt. your fills were smooth. Van Halen is on my favorite bands. You have a big E drum kit. You gained a new sub. I did the Crackle Will Rock cover by them. 😎🥁👍🎵
Going back and watching the older ones, one at a time. Awesome - just like all the others. Workin' on the music room, and just ordered a few new Van Halen Tees too. You are inspiring me, Bro! Gonna plug in for a few minutes tonight, up in the studio.
Well that is possible for sure. I always thought the kick is so loud & up front in the mix, it pretty much drowns out the snare when they're hit at the same time. Thanks for watching & commenting as always! 🙏💛🤘🤘
Hey Mike, I just found out about your channel :) Mate, I never saw an electronic kit like yours! Looks amazing! :) Great playing on Panama as well!! You nalied it! :) Subscribed for more!! Hope you're doing good. Dany
Thank you Mike!! This is a modified old-school Yamaha e-kit. Yamaha TP100 Snare, TP65 toms, PCY130 & 150 cymbals (plus 1 Simmons single zone 13" cymbal), RHH135 hi hat, KP65 kick pads. Running into Yamaha DTX500 and DTX502 modules. I modified the pads by adding shells & rims!
Hey thanks for finding my channel and checking it out man, I really do appreciate it! I've got to agree with most everyone on here that is a very unique kit. Is that a custom job or what is it! Keep rocking man and you've got my sub and like!
Thanks so much, my man!! This kit is an older Yamaha e-kit with rubber pads. I added shells, rims, and chrome vinyl auto wrap to upgrade it!! 👍 Rock on brother!! 🤘🤘
Hmmm... yes they do sound pretty similar! I kinda tried to emulate the super crisp AVH drum sound production, which doesn't help I'm sure. I'm definitely no sound engineer lol!
Man, I could watch this all day. Killer song choice, your kit sounds (and looks) AMAZING. A huge like and new sub from me. Looking forward to checking out more of your work.
Wow, killer track brother 👏. The kit looks so cool and sounds great!!!! I've tried this song and I just can't do any justice but you were great. Thumbs up and subbed!!!!!!
This cover gets me so pumped! Love this song and how you're playing it. So much energy and so true to the original with your own feel. So solid and powerful man! Great great job, Mike!
Yeah, man!!! Brilliant drumming on this one! One of the greatest VH songs ever, and man did you nail it! Also love your kit, it’s always great to meet a fellow DTX drummer! 😃👍🥁 Keep up the great work, I subscribed to your channel!
Thanks so much for your support. I really appreciate it, and I agree, it's good to connect with a Yammie bro!! Your channel ROCKS, and I look forward to checking out more of it. Rock on, m' lord!! 🤘🤘
Mike my friend, this is a killer cover! The sound is bad ass, those tricky fills, the ride bounces during the solo, the dynamics coming out - NICE!!! So glad I got the alert on this one. And the kit looks insanely cool man.
Thanks so much Trey! I'm glad you dig it -- and your comments mean a lot especially coming from such a great drummer yourself. I'm honored -- rock on man!! 🤘
Mike my good friend! That was a badass cover man! Loved that tricky beats and fills and for sure your stick tricks! Really good sound either triggering and in the mix. Loved it!
Thank you David! 🙏 I am still learning the double stick twirl, so I'm a little shaky on that one. But there was enough of a break at the beginning of the song to fit it in!! 😆 🤘🤘
Hey Mike. What set up would you recommend as a decent electronic kit? I’m an accomplished drummer but have never used an E-kit. I’m looking to dip my toe, and suggestions?
Man, there are a ton of great options nowadays. If your budget is limited, I would go for one of the lower-end Roland or Yamaha kits. There are amazing acoustic-looking kits (check out muzziodrums.com) too. But Roland and Yamaha seem to be the most reliable, with some of the Alesis lower-end kits having some durability issues from what I've gathered. But the high-end Alesis Strike Pro apparently has fixed the quality issues.
Mate, what a fantastic cover!! You have such flare and presence! You did this great song justice. It is nice to see a drummer really genuinely enjoying what they are playing. Can’t wait to see what else you have in store as this has set me up for the weekend.
Seriously killing it, I listened to the original and yours, NO difference! Sick man!
Thanks so much! I love the sound of Alex's drums on this tune so much, so I really tried to play it like he did. Thank you for the awesome comment, I'm glad you dig it!! 🤘🤘
Excellent job Buddy👍🥁👍!!
Thank you brother!! Alex kept it pretty straightforward on this one, but it's a rocker and a blast!! 😃🤘🤘

Great playing and sounding kit. To me on the album it sounds like in the verses, there is no snare...its all kick drum. What do you think?
Well that is possible for sure. I always thought the kick is so loud & up front in the mix, it pretty much drowns out the snare when they're hit at the same time. Thanks for watching & commenting as always! 🙏💛🤘🤘
