      Agreed, though one slight correction. Brandon Pertzborn is the current drummer for The Offspring (and an immensely talented dude, don't get me wrong), but not the original drummer. In fact since he's 30 years old (according to Google.. probs not that accurate but still), he would've been about 3-4 years old at the time the song was recorded.
      The original drummer was Ron Welty.
      But yeah, still totally agree, really cool addition to the video format. :)

The quarter notes are fairly slow, and there’s nothing impressive about being able to play a four on the floor at most speeds, but certainly at this one. I think what OP meant is that, because four on the floors are usually fairly easy, drummers tend to hit the drums haaaaard.

      That's exactly how it is! It's really a relationship to the music. But other musicians have that, too. You grow up listening to something, then playing it for 20 years, and it's ingrained into your being. You remember life events by the music that surrounded them. You hear little snippets in your head while walking around. I think that's what we're all striving for as musicians: to practice something and know it so deeply that it can't _not_ come out in your playing.

    I love the dynamics of the bass drum (and everything else) on his arrangement. Gives a lot of personality to the song. Changes it all.

    The Offspring is one of my favourites. This was great. I love Brandon’s generosity. All these drummers seem to be so generous with their praise. Ulysesses did a great job on that.

    One thing I love about playing drums and watching others play drums is the sheer variety in the way the kits are set up. Everything on this kit is so close! I don't think I'd be able to physically play with the crash overhanging the hihat like that!

    This has become one of my favorite things to watch. I am not a drummer..and have no rhythm to speak of...lol. I love watching them figure out how to play the songs, you can see the gears turning..i love it. The addition of having the original drummer watch was a great idea.

    Ulysses is one of my favorite drummers in this series. He always nails it, but in his own jazzy way. It's obvious why he's a professor at Juilliard.

    Offspring was my musical awakening. Americana is the first album I ever bought, when my best buddy at school was gifted some tickets it was the first show we ever went to.
    Ulysses' take on this is absolutely beautiful. I loved everything about it, but especially the intro. Really nice to see the Offspring's drummers feedback, too!

      This brandon guy is a hired drummer to replace the guy they kicked out for not taking the shots due to health concerns.

    Wow!! You can tell the jazz influence in his beats. It's feels like it's offbeat but it somehow fits the structure. I love it! It's different and really opens my eyes to a genre that I wouldn't gravitate towards.

    I get more impressed with each video you guys upload. The production, the organization, the planning is unreal. You have a limited time with the artist, to create as many content as possible, and glue together with post reaction with another artist is so well thought. Kuddos for all the production and people behind the camera that make this videos so espetacular, I can't imagine how hard it is to put everything together.

    This channel is so good at showing that amazing musicians live in all scopes of life.
    It is not just the popular, nor the avant, not the high resound, not the gutter, not in the pocket all time, ness who follows line, but this show shows those all things are collectively intertwined. The divine rhythm of the metric, the static takes the hectic, the class takes the exit, the soul feeling rested, the music goes on. The music goes on.
