Thank you for such a supportive comment! You can be as good as you want to be--it's just a matter of practice and perseverance. I wish you all the best!!!
The small things that some drummers overlook is at the 4:04 to 4:36 mark, is the slow build of the drum crescendo. That really puts a statement on the song.
I know one of the reasons I am so drawn to your music, you make music not noise! You have a perfect internal metronome! When my brother and I used to play together we always played "together" and I always asked how come we could do that and he used to tell me that he didn't know, it just happened! Whatever it was and for whatever reason, it was great fun playing with two drum kits... my brother on one and me on the other!
Once a solid tempo and groove is established, it just takes on a life of its own and momentum kicks in. It's almost magical! A good friend of mine and I used to set up our drum kits across from each other and jam. It was great fun and great practice. Thanks again!!
Love this sound! Benny Goodman and his orchestra were some of the best musicians out there in those times, great song and great drummer for this cover.
OMG That was bloody awesome drumming. I see you have a goofy sense of humor too. I've seen some of your other drum covers for the first time today! Sorry, a little late lol. Do you have many teaching videos? Would you teach one on one or offer advice if asked in a not so open forum? although others could still learn from that too I guess! Let me know if possible. Thanks. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for your enthusiastic support of me and my channel. Yes, I definitely have a goofy sense of humor. As far as teaching, I am completely self taught and don't have the slightest clue as to how to teach someone. I am happy to give pointers and advice any time. Thanks again!!!
Wow! Awesome cover! I want to play this song myself in a recital, does anyone have the drum sheet? I would really help me because the song is harder than I tought :c
I also play drums and I so much want to upload a video to youtube but I am old and I don't know how to use a video camera. My daughter bought me one but I can't figure it out! :(

I love when they used this song in "Swing Girls".

ドラムもさる事ながら金管木管とのバランスが素晴らしい！
BRAVO! Pisti
Hvala vam!
Gene is smiling down at you!
If we ever get back to normal I"d love to go listen to you play, if you ever play with a band somewhere.
I live in the Detroit area and play live shows about 3-4 times a month (pre covid). Hopefully, live music will come back to life in 2021. Thanks!!
@@SteveToccoDrummer If they ever open up bars and concerts again maybe you could let me know so that way I could come hear you?
@@openyoureyes4799 Will do. Thanks!!
@@SteveToccoDrummer I don't remember if I told you but I'm in Benton Harbor Michigan, by the beach.
🙏🙏🙏👍
Thank YOU!!
Wow! Awesome cover! I want to play this song myself in a recital, does anyone have the drum sheet? I would really help me because the song is harder than I tought :c
I don't have the sheet music. I just learn songs "by ear". This is a great choice for a recital song. Good luck!
Good
Are you playing 8th or 16th notes in the h h? I play open handed and I can play the h.h with my left hand at whatever the speed is 8th or 16th notes?
Actually, isn't that "Sing, Sing, Sing With a Swing" by Louis Prima? Anyway, fantastic cover.
😊😊
That's Awesome!
Do you have drum spectrum?
Thank you! What is drum spectrum?
I need more cowbell!
Well, it's Tuesday night, just got home from work.. here I am again..you wouldn't believe the places you pop up!
LOL!! Well, I have 450 videos on my channel so I probably "pop up" all over the internet. Thanks for stopping by!!
😊😊😊
Nice shit dude
Hi Steve, what record is this version of the song that you're playing over from? I can't seem to find the recording anywhere!
I can't remember what version this is. It just popped up on my streaming service and I recorded it. Sorry I can't be of more help.
Here I am again today too
Well hello, again!!!!!! Thanks for watching!!!!!!
It ain’t Sing Sing Sing without the cowbell😁
Here I am again!!!!!!
I am here too!!! Hello!!!!! lol
@@SteveToccoDrummer I could watch a bunch of "just okay" drummers but I keep coming back here! :)
@@openyoureyes4799 LOL!!!! You are too kind!!!!
can you please tell me where did you get drumless track?
This is not a drumless track.
yea lol. He just played it note for note, which is very impressive. You can hear him slightly off in the beginning.
I also play drums and I so much want to upload a video to youtube but I am old and I don't know how to use a video camera. My daughter bought me one but I can't figure it out! :(

@@SteveToccoDrummer Thanks maybe I can figure it out. Btw, I love your floor tom work! You really have the beat!
I have a black Pearl set.... what is yours or did I already ask you that? :)
I actually can't remember which drum set is in this video. It's either a Yamaha Recording Custom kit or a Yamaha Stage Custom kit.
