If you didn't notice the link for it, I did a lesson on the middle part that slows everything right down, too. It's actually not that complicated!?

      Thank YOU for the kind words! One thing I can tell you though, is that the only difference between "guys like us" and yourself, is seat time. What you're seeing in the video above is not "natural talent," it's years and years of practice. I guarantee you could achieve the same, given enough time behind the kit!

    ok i dont know if im the only one seeing this but right around the 2:20 mark it started to look like the video had been recorded at a much slower speed, and then sped up. i say this because as a fellow drummer i have never seen a cymbal stop moving that fast, and ive never seen any thing move as fast as his arms where during this video.

    I have always enjoyed music. In the past year or two I have really starting paying attention to the music itself, then in the past year I have started to learn bass. I'm not the best at it but I enjoy it which is all that matters. In playing bass I can now enjoy each instrument on it's own. I hear them more clearly solo and how they work together. I really appreciate what you do. You give me a much deeper understanding of things. I have really been into drums lately. Seeing this and a few other of your videos has been amazing.

      +KevanFnRoy Hi Kevan. I have to agree with that assessment. Your drumming technique is the best that I have seen on youtube to date. Regarding your amazing kit. Do you have any videos focusing on that amazing drum set?

    Well, I came here ready to be disappointed, first thing that struck me was the slight resemblance to Time Machine in your kit. But when you started...I stand very, very corrected. Good job.

      next you'll be saying he's wrong for having so many china cymbals, there's no wrong way to play a song except to play it perfectly as it was written, no creative spin

    Damn dude, you're an insanely skilled drummer, but I hope you realize this is not exactly what Neil Peart does in the song. You over complicated it quite a bit. If that was your intention, then dude, amazing job! But when you make your own music, the best drummers drum for the music, not for the skill
