As always excellent performance , you are the best drummer of RUclips for play Van Halen cover , , it "s always a great pleasue to se you play ! big "like" Bro have a nice day Mike !
Another absolutely brilliant cover on your channel, my friend! Your dynamics in the verses are outstanding. Spot on performance from start to finish, sounds just like an original live version. I‘m sure you could be playing live with the band anytime without anyone noticing at all. Well done!!! 😃👍🥁
Friggin' amazing! It still blows y mind at how close you got your kit sounding to Alex's, regardless of the time era of the group! And that left foot again during the choked crash accents. A true professional!
Cool, I even know him .... absolute incredible as ever, Mike ..... yes, yes yes, that is your thing ..... precise VH play that you make by sleeping ... I think ...good stuff , the hh openings are awesome and cool tom fills ..... you nail'd it agane my friend👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Oh. Mike smoked another cover on his kit. Gee. I'm shocked! LOL Just being a smarty pants tonight, MIke. You're the best..... period. End of story. Best Toob Drummer and best Van Halen cover drummer on here too. As always.... you crushed this. Man... you're a great drummer - sure. But one of the things that makes you amazing is the tones you put out on on that kit. You just absolutely dial it in for Van Halen. It's amazing, really. And your phrasing and timing is just unbelievable. Rock on Bro!
Awesome comments Jimmy! Thank you, my man -- I'm glad you noticed the sound mix, because I spend way too much time messing with it. It would be different if I knew what the heck I was doing... but reading great comments like yours makes me feel good about it. Huge thanks brother -- rock on!🙏🙏💛💛🤘🤘
Who needs coffee when you have Alex Conway to wake you up?! Thanks for taking us back to the first Van Halen song many of us ever heard when we laid the needle down on that first cut of perhaps the greatest debut rock album of all time. You channeled Alex yet again, and his spirits also entered your drum controller, DAW or Superior Drummer Plugin or whatever you use to do your magic? 🤘🤘🤘
Thank you Sean! Yes, when we first dropped the needle on this album, we pretty much knew the game was changed forever, didn't we? I sure appreciate your great support my man! 🙏🙏💛💛
Well done drum cover! Watched a few with this song but only yours captures pure excellence with modesty which is such an underrated piece of talent. Bravo 👏🏻
Thanks so much Winnie! Well there's always a fine line between playing the song straight or adding some extras... honestly I've done some of each on my channel! I sure appreciate your nice comments, brother. 🙏💛🤘
Classic tune by your favorite band, Mike. This one is slower than most of their greatest hits, but also it proves they could compose and master this kind of songs. You performed it perfectly and your audio mixing and video editing are as good as always, so congratulations for this beautiful video, Mike. Greetings from Spain. 🙂👏
Thanks so much Carlos! I always appreciate your thoughtful comments and your super nice compliments. You're a great drummer -- keep rockin' en España my man!! 🙏💛🤘
