I"m a 70 year old woman and I've been playing for decades. You are really amazing for 2.5 years! You seem to love it like I do! Just take a deep breath, exhale, relax, drop the shoulders and GO!
Damn Nice playing, Finally some good covers of Alex's Hard work. AL Is one of the best drummers in the world, Glad to see people appreciate his playing! You did a great job Covering this!
Love it !!! Funny I went to look at a set of drums just yesterday. And of course this is absolutely the right song I want to play once I get them. This is on my bucket list!!!
rockbandmom Absolutely. You stay right in "the pocket" nicely too. If you were near Gainesville, I would talk you into jamming at the local Guitar Center every Friday from 6 to 8 PM. :)
Ha! Me to! My friend and I used to make the drag and jam to Van Halen and chase the girls....lol good times. Nobody makes the drag anymore. Good drumming rbm!
If I ever had the opportunity to get a drum set and my own house, this would be the first song I learned to play. I think you learn all the basic essentials of drumming, especially the tom rolls, at least I think that’s what they’re called, lol. Just a great, under appreciated song and fun to play drums too.
You're awesome Rockbandmom! I'm new to your page, I play guitar mainly but I dabble in drums and I'm actually learning stuff by watching. I'm a huge VH fan so, I'm definitely impressed with this clip. Alex Van Halen is criminally underrated
I am not a drummer (Guitar/bass) but this was well done. I caught a couple of tiny slips, but overall, this was impressive! Drumming always leaves me scratching my head. Getting four fingers and a pick hand working together is hard enough.
Nice .Super job ...... I play guitar but don't feel so confident playing. You seem like you are confident . I wish I could overcome that, I also play bass , some drums,harmonica,write music and lyrics and love music in general . Thanks for sharing
You aced it; you have an ear for the tune!!!! You don't need sheet music; it might help but you have natural rhythm and you're gifted with natural pitch hearing thus you give a good rhythm (drums)!!!!!
Good job gal! Head and shoulders tell the tale, in the groove all the way. Rock on Mom! Never noticed before, but there's a distinct "Ringo" pulse to this, maybe the high-hat eighth-notes thing and all the cool space in the groove.
Great job! The backbeat timing is a bit off here and there but that's drumming! It's tougher than people think to play flawlessly with an original recording and mimic it perfectly.
@@rockbandmom any time! You have great timing and are right in the pocket. I'm much more of a guitar player but love playing with drummers like yourself. Very solid and impressive.
One of Van Halen's most underappreciated songs. Great job.
One of my favoritest Van Halen songs .... Nice job !!
Jeff Small thanks!

This is my favorite van halen song. That straight beat and eddie’s solo part where he plays with the tremolo at the last bars, I love it!
My favorite Van Halen song, next to Intruder. Utterly under-rated, and perfectly nailed by you.
Thanks so much!
We now know what mom does during the day when the kids are at school, rock on!
That was awesome! Watching you play this makes me appreciate this song even more
Thanks so much!
nothing cooler than a lass playing drums, and she totally nailed it! epic!
Awesome job
Thanks!
Yoo, I was 8 in 84. Had a trap set in my room. This was the funnest song to play. Drummer heaven.
God bless her 😘 you can tell she loves this song with a passion !!!
Awesome cover to one the most underrated VH song. 🤘🏻
Thanks!
I've listened to several of your covers... I'm impressed!
Thanks!
Very good job Laura! I'm glad you didn't quit on this cover. You toughed it out, and came through with flying colors. Keep up the good work!
Back in the day this was one of the songs I would play to over and over. Always loved this one! Awesome cover!!!
wow . glad you didnt give up , ALEX WOULD BE PROUD , GREAT JOB girl you rock
why can't my wife play drums.... dang it. any way cool drum set and tone and playing and cool song.. miss you Ed
Amazing job!! One of my favorites from the 1984 album!!
Thank you!
Oh, your posture and mechanics are on point!! Reminds me to be attentive to my own posture, playing or not!
I see bunk beds. It's like she sneaks and plays her kid's drums when they're not home lol. "Wait.....ok....they're gone, time to get my VH on!!!" lol
This is the most accurate cover of i'll Wait i've seen so far! Really liked it!
TheMadness5150 thanks so much!
. . . . . . . says agreed, one of the most underrated songs they made. But Rockband MoM. Shut Da Front Door. You Nailed It!!!!!!!

Amazing!! You just made me love Van Halen even more than I already did!!

Watching you play this, I think, proves to us "air drummers" that playing real drums isn't easy. I think you did a fantastic job! Kudos 🔥
Thanks so much!
One of Halen's greatest songs, great job girl!
Thanks!
Wow... So so good. You can tell you love the music too. Keep up the good work
Thanks so much!
Hi Laura,
Another awesome drum session. Congrats. God Bless.
Nice job. One of my most favorite drummers to jam with once said he thinks of his sticks as whips and that gave him a new edge.
akonitony2 Really? That's an interesting thought, I may have to try it. Thanks!

Eddie~ I did not use drum sheet music for this song. I learned it by ear. Thanks! :)
Very awsome
Where is that dirty laundry song?
