    Exactly what I’d hoped for…and so much more!
    “Funk #49” topped my request list as I was counting on Yoyoka to use the free rein allowed by the song to add her own touches and then let loose during the “intermission”. She did just that, spicing it up with that infectiously playful style we all appreciate, and every aspect of her performance is a delight. Would definitely buy from again!

    When she went to Pearl to pick out whatever she liked, she said at the time she did not want rack toms because she didn't like them, too small and no good sound. It was like she knew her mind then years ago, and what she wanted to do.
    Instead she said big effen floor toms, thanks.
    I am happy to see she held true to what she loves, and that seems to be big arena drummer type sound.

    Lord have mercy! That breakdown at about the 1:41 mark that just keeps getting more outrageous as it blooms out knocked my ears into my watch pocket! Reminiscent of her breakdown on her cover of Virtual Insanity. But far longer and 4x more complex. She makes good stuff great. She makes great music epic. Go back and watch her cover of Black Dog ~ a LIVE version of a famously unique and difficult song to cover. This is such a treat to watch her expand and conquer style after style as she twists their tails with her own special MOJO! Hammer time Hokkaido Hammer time that is. Swimming pools and moviestars!
