    This is Brad Pitt's long lost cousin Brad Moshpitt. (Ba Dum Tss) But seriously, it's amazing that he didn't get his first drum kit until the age of 21, and he's that good! So inspirational!

Total gentleman and a consumate professional.....and im a huge LOG fan.

  • @footnotedrummer
    @footnotedrummer 6 лет назад +14

    He was 21 when he got his first drum kit? CRAZY! If that doesn't tell you how talented someone is.. I don't know what will. I got mine at 15, and thought that I was old. I'm not even close to his latent level (with a LOT of hours behind the kit), and I'm 50 now. The take away from this, is that you don't have to start drums when you're 6 to be a prodigy. Stick with it and you might be the next great thing, regardless of age.

    • @raymondlualhati3978

      Cool to hear! My grandpa gave me my first drum set on Christmas Eve when I was 9. I’m now 19.

    • @footnotedrummer
      @footnotedrummer 6 лет назад

      Raymond Lualhati... Don't ever be discouraged. I think I'm a darned good drummer. I've played mostly speed metal, punk and hard rock, throughout the years and Chris is one of my favorites in the genre. What I have found encouraging, is the fact that Chris really isn't trained in rudiments. You can tell by his style. Its great to see how people can overcome "setbacks" in training with good old fashioned practice and natural talent.

    he's right. to see people headbang, moshing, or even give their horn signal, is really special to performer. i'll be honest i hate long ass practice session, long ass drive, or even recording a riff over and over again. but to see people come to together in front of you, thats special.

  • @lancelottheknight7126
    @lancelottheknight7126 7 лет назад +2

    Hmmm. This is something I want to ask Chris Adler. If you started drums at 21 and Burn The Priest became a band at 99 and he is 22 years old that time. So it only took him 1 or 2 years of drumming to perform? And to think that drums in the tracks from the Burn the Priest and New American Gospel album are not a walk in a park. Damn he's good if thats the point.

  • @mounirramia9880

    I know there's been at least a couple times in his career where he contemplated trimming the beard... but then realized it can't be done. It is him.

      @AFXAcid37 8 лет назад

      +drummessiah The beard is trimmed. I saw him last night w/Megadeth and it's much, much shorter now. He cut off a lot of his hair too, it's like shoulder length now.
