    I feel like a small Corgi strapped to his chest; I don't really know what's going on, but I like hanging out with this guy. And I wanted to eat that burrito.

    Nothing beats your videos brother - the consistency, what feels like like the calm nature of being back on tour, I love these videos so much man. So much micro-knowledge & little bits of expert level teching I've taken away from only 5 months of watching your videos than I'd learnt by myself, teching for myself, for over 10 years! I really hope you continue these videos for many years to come for many others to find inspiration!

Been following him for years an dude really is a master of his craft, the fact that one of the best drummers of the generation like Holland has had time and time again as a drum tech shows a lot as well. Much love an respect an I hope his fame continues to grow and grow. Only saw him perform once the TWA an duck he played with a lot of heart.

Even though I get it, everything I assume is connected to that rig. Would've have like to hear Luke's opinion on snare weight. Next tour quick release wing nuts, Tell dw to send you some!
    ps. I remember you said on past videos you didn't like neon gaffer...looking at the rig must have drove you crazy lol.

    As a physics major I was surprised that Snareweight called the weights , drum dampENers. They don’t make the snare wet (dampen), they reduce ringing ( damp ). It is a common mistake but drives my physics nerd mind crazy.
    Thanks for the great videos!!

    • @MikeP2055
      @MikeP2055 6 месяцев назад

      Hahaha! I can't speak to the dampening assertion, but your comment cracked me up because I'm a neurotic nerd as well. Unfortunately, my neurosis is far more douche-y; grammar patrol. 🤦‍♂️
      Like using "less" instead of "fewer."
      Or "that" when it should be "who." ('The drum tech WHO makes the great videos.')
      It's "all right," not "alright."
      And don't even get me started on the proper usage of "bring" versus "take!"
      The English degree synapses within my stupid brain can't help it. And the fact that I'm a mediocre writer makes it 10 times worse. 😂✌️
