    At 41yrs. of age, Luke Holland inspires me to practice and stay on top of the drumming game. I love having "New Generation Drummer" inspiration! F it, I'm using my double pedal on my top 40 rock gig tmrw night!

      I'm going to have to agree here, he's a huge inspiration to me. Although I am younger, I've been playing for 8 years and haven't really been too serious, so in the past few months I've been working on quite a lot!

      @@scottyweimuller6152 because as a drummer its hard to just write your own music. You can and should mess around with your own sound and what not. But playing music covers is a way for artists to express their creative talent through PLAYING music. Not creating it. Its not really a hard concept...

      +Sam Smith my main issue with TWA is that even though they show obvious technical ability, the songwriting is extremely boring and the way the songs flow feels incredibly forced. Plus songs like Lighthouse sound desperate for commercial success and they don't display anything head turning that the band has to offer. I think they've realized this though because their two new singles blow everything off Real out of the water.

And now you're my new idol, thanks again I hope you read this comment (sorry for my english :) )

    Luke my man, been watching you for years now - makes me so happy to see the progress you've made... I mean look at you now dude. Look at the crowd you're playing in front of. Probably not your largest crowd but god damn dude, I mean I play shows in front of 100 people and that makes me weak at the knees. Keep up the shit you do... you've lined up for yourself, possibly one of the most successful careers in drumming for the next coming years of your life.
    A lot of people look up to you man.
    Keep it up.
