    How many drums/cymbals/accessories do YOU have?
    If it's less than 150, you're doing it wrong.

    As the composer of the original drum solo, that was absolutely amazing!!! Luckily the Drumatron VI wasn't trying to stop you! While I'm picking knits here, because you are an amazing drummer...I kept waiting for the MIDI controller and some British rocker dude to be scared of it...again picking knits here...just amazing stuff!!! Thank you so much for this...was absolutely worth the 10 year wait for some one to crush this!!!

I thought it was a fun cool way to start the day and also funny that they would choose a Michael Jackson song because they were on their way to the elementary school across the street from my house. Either way it was a lot more fun than waking up to an alarm. I started that day PUMPED! Haha

    Eric, I knew a video would be coming soon, but I had no idea what you would have planned for us. I have to say that you have far exceeded anything that we could have imagined. This obviously took longer to prepare than your Hawaii-Five-O video. And you successfully used every bit of space in your house, and every piece of percussion geer in your arsenal. But the drone footage and *constructing a Drop Tower in your back yard* just amazes me!
    I sure hope this goes viral! And that you gain more subscribers to become the number 1 EMC channel ...

    A) the police live next door
    Or
    B) he had to do so many attempts that they got so agitated and called the police which then lead to the cops watching his every take out of morbid curiosity and/or hilarity.
