    Join Nandi Bushell as a student of Gregg Bissonette and Chad Smith as they break down a variety of classic grooves in this exclusive Masterclass. First, Chad teaches Nandi how to play the Red Hot Chili Peppers' hits, "Can't Stop" and "Under The Bridge," while Gregg Bissonette shows her the beats to the Beatles, "Ticket To Ride" and Led Zepplin's "Fool In The Rain.” Later, Nandi tries her hand at improvising and ends up leading the boys in a breath-taking round of "Trading Fours."

    It is the epitome of passing it along. I can see her nerves but she's got chops no doubt. It's not about age it's about love of music, loving to play and loving to show others how. We are lucky to live now in the era of UA-cam with SO MUCH instructional content and exposure to talents like Nandi. She embodies the "I want to do this and I WILL learn how" mentality. A lesson for all humans here, don't let anybody say you can't because you can if you put your mind to it and disregard anybody's non-constructive criticism. If it's in your soul, let it out, don't hold back.

    THIS my good people is probably the BEST video to ever come across the internet, OF ALL TIME!! Three excellent drummers, two professional, and one who will be known around the world as a top drummer, in her own time. All three having fun doing what they do. When they 'Traded Fours' I was absolutely floored, Nandi totally held her own at 11 years old with two VERY well known professional drummers, and played expertly, when many many older drummers may have been star-struck and choked in the moment. Nandi picks up what Chad & Gregg were laying down almost instantly. Such an honest and wholesome video. You are all three amazing people, and all three amazing drummers.

    • @johnnyburritto6367

      Your comment is ridiculous. When a drummer takes lessons from another drummer, they are peers at different levels, and there to learn and have fun. It is not helpful to propel a kid, and put expectation on her to be a top world known drummer. You are expecting her to be at a level she may not achieve, and may not want to achieve.

You don't think that Dave just conveniently chose to be nice and supportive to her? Most nice people, especially responsible parents, support and encourage kids but are also realistic about expectations, such as Chad and Greg did, but to give her false hopes that she is great is just bullshit. She is at the level a drummer of her playing experience should be, just like thousands of others. Just don't go the whole Hollywood Mum crap on her, that fucks kids up.

I somewhat get what you’re attempting to say, but you’ve missed the point entirely. No one is expecting her to be a super drummer.

I’m not really paying attention (I’m reading something) and this guy sits down next to me, reads my PASIC badge which had my name and home town written on it. He said to me “you’re from Traverse City?!?
    I’ve been there many times!” It was Gregg Bissonette! A guy sitting in front of me says, “who’s from Traverse City?!?” as he whips around to see who is sitting behind him. It was Chad Smith! Both of them being from Detroit had been to my home town many times. The three of us had a great chat! They were super friendly and personable. I have a picture of it in my office! Great memories!
