I studied with him for years and I have never seen him beat the fuck out of the drums with such ruthless aggression. This is totally awesome
Jordan Katz Thanks so much!!!
This is Pure Joy.
Coz he was in his natural habitat ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Jordan cmon this song can’t be played without beating the drums like catching a crackhead trying to steal your new car and I’m not even a drummer.. it would be like throwing pillows at clubber Lang otherwise 😂.
I do believe the symbol police are on the lookout for a smiling man wearing a purple shirt though after this 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Jordan Katz teacher going savage huh ? 🤘🏻🥁
This guy is the definition of enjoying life.
Jesusfreak Computergeek Thanks so much!!!
Jesusfreak Computergeek Thanks again! I checked out your video! Excellent! Keep sharing your talents!

Beautiful message ❤
I didn't know. 😭 I first discovered Dom 20 years back. RIP Master 🙏🏻

Damn! Rest In Peace, Dom. Your joy and passion for the instrument we all love was infectious. The way you handled your illness will forever be a great example for how to live life itself. We love you and will miss you! Rest In Peace maestro.

Awww shit, I just discovered him. Love his open hand playing on the verses.
Kid: mom, why is grandpa so cool?
Mom: he is a drummer son
ok
Haha
Totally!

*he is a musician son*
He is the Golden Retriever of drummers.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Now that's hilarious 😂😂💯
I laughed out in office
Leaving hair everywhere
Lmfao
I love Dom. My old teacher was a student of his, so I'm a "grandstudent" of Dom.
Who cares
😅 Nice way to build an "ancestry tree of education" 😉
Grandstudent😂😂love it.
Why you face not alike him
Dom is the Don of drumming.
"There's nothing more dangerous than a happy drummer."
- Mike Tyson
it's true 🤣🤣
He is a shark attack on this drums
What
I LOL’d at that 🤣🤣🤣
punch your face at 200 bpm 1/8ths XD
Rest in peace Dom, the drum community is really going to miss you.
😪
😪🇧🇩
I'm 53
I was in a band in Vegas back in 1990.
We got big and popular.On the verge of being signed and it all fell apart because of drugs.
My heart was broken
I put that part of my life away and stopped playing. Moved to Chicago with my kit and it was stolen from a bar I worked at.
That was it. Done for good.
Till I saw this dude with his grey hair and a passionate smile
he gives me inspiration to pick up a pair of sticks,force those callouses back and get my chops back
Thank you Drumeo. you inspired me to play again
You had the skill to survive... 👍 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧👍
KEEP IT UP BRO!!!! YOU HAVE THE SKILL TO SURVIVE
What's the name of your old band?
Can you tell us your old band's name?I am curious
👍🏻
Playing the drums like he doesn't own them!
😂😂😂
Richard Francis 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you made me spit out my soda!! Well played! Well played 😂😂😂💯💯💯
@@maureenlisbar4762 Glad to be of service! :)
Or know the song.
Omg lmao
He's not just the happiest drummer in the world but also the angriest. RIP cymbals.
Verdade kkk
Hahaha 😂😂
He's like: Yesss! Anger does make me Happeee!!! 😈
Ahaha
Lol
This guy's happiness level makes Tre Cool seem depressed.
We need more people like him in this sad world.
He became Tre Warm.
@@fairuzhussaini7301 That was amazing.
i love tre cool
@@joemama2294-e8g Everyone loves Tre Cool.
Tre "Cool" actually is not so "Cool" 😂
Whoever your recording engineers are deserve an endless amount of praise for the marvelous drum sounds they get on every video Drumeo does. I’m always in awe!
Thank you!

The sound is awesome!
the kick drum is so fat
Especially with what appear to be brand new heads. And he doesn't seem to play lightly. Awesome!

@@GlobalDrumming im a new fan sir 😊 subscribed ❤️

And don't forget the smiley face...
Dom should play speed metal.
I seriously just cried like a baby through that whole thing… (RIP DOM) 9/28/2023 legend 🥁
This, kids, is real love for the music and the instrument. He nailed the song. This guy is not only a great drummer, he’s a real musician. Respect!
I want to start training for the big fight after this!
I agree with you.
He is also one of the foremost educators on this instrument as well. Would love to study with him.
Two drummers make me feel the song 10x more the way it should. Jonathan Sugafoot Moffet, and this man. I needed this today. Thank you!
Corey Stuart Thanks so much!!!
This helped me get going this morning !
I so enjoy a job well done regardless what it is being done. And Dom doing it with such joy has inspired me to try to do other things with joy going forward !
I may buy myself some drums and rock out and relieve stress at the same time !!!
Jeremy Walton Thanks so much!!! Feel joy then share it! Excellent!
Corey Stuart wooooooooa
😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😜😜😜😜😜😜
What's your plan for retirement?
Dom : gonna hit those cymbals even harder!
Lol. That must be it
You must be from Nagaland I presume
When i feel bad about how things are getting shitty. I just watch this video and it keeps me going. The smile the fun and the passion in contagious.
The way he smash that cymbals is like my father beating me to death, Nice!
@@mobaby1979 yes but actually no
I would've done the same boy
Jajajajajajaja
He only does it after he has his angry juice and mom isn't there to yell at
Damn !! 😭😂😂😂😂😂👍🏻
He beat those drums like they owed him money
Max Weinberg said that
thats why he is happy
And he beat the cymbals like they killed his first son
@@callanc3925 Bad choice of words .He beat those cymbals like an old rug.
😂😂😂😂
Greatest drum cover of Eye of the Tiger ever. This really made me smile.
Us too! 🙂
So overplay is great? 😨😨😨
Horrible...
Kriss Kriss ...CAN be man, it’s what HE wanted to do...THAT’S what matters
Kriss Kriss Thanks for listening! I wanted to have fun. This is expression! No one was hurt! Lol!
He was such a great drummer his energy and drive he will be definitely missed.
God... the energy of this man is legendary
Right
The holy spirit must be with Dom.
Hes my uncle
I saw Dom at a drum clinic in Omaha Nebraska...hearing him hit those cymbals in person will take your breath away. Not only is Dom a great drummer, but he's a great person. In the crowd that night was a 12 year old girl...and in talking to her, Dom found out that she desperately wanted to become a drummer, but her family could never afford the lessons. In fact her mother was outside in the car waiting because they couldn't afford the extra ticket. Dom, without blinking an eye, paid for her to have a years worth of lessons, and I believe even bought her a drum set. Great guy, great drummer. Dom said he got good at the bass drums by running through 'Stick Control for the Snare Drummer' by Lawrence Stone, but on the bass drums...can't even imagine.
I am glad to see things like this in the world. Gives me hope that maybe we aren't too far gone
@@kenbrovost9653 it's inspiring how some people have some degree of power or influence and choose to use it to make the world a better place, not worse.
Stick Control is THE greatest drum book ever
Great drummer and inspiration. At 68, I'm still learning the basics after not playing since in highschool. Makes me want to keep pushing on.
02:40 make him angry once and you're gonna get slapped into another dimension
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Loved this part. Watched ot several times
Drumming is an EXCELLENT stress reliever. Believe me when I tell you...he's having a ball.
When he gets sad, the world ends.
evv Lol. thanks
when germany will try to take europe again
Jelte van der Horst We all will keep the world happy!!! Thanks
Haha.. lets hit something
How can you get sad when you have beautiful Sabian HHX cymbals?
my new hobbie is to watch old people nail at the drums
Lucas Guaraldo not only drums, old people are better than the actual generation. Actual people have efficient and more technical playing but older one are real artists. All these videos show us that’s it’s not all about speed
@@KaiAst thats a cute boomer comment xD huehue
Check out Dorothea Taylor 👍
This no ordinary old dude. That is the original ambassador of drums.
I can do a warm-up from 1975,and may be 65,but giving it all I got.
This guy clearly loves his job.
kerfies Thanks so much!!!
He sure does & does a great job with Sessions Panel Artist Series interviews!
Hard to be angry when you beat the crap out of stuff for a living. That's what most drummers used to say to me when I played bass.
RIP to Dom Famularo thank you for the many lessons, his energy was infectious no doubt !🙏💔
Awesome and badass for an elder man to bring us back the good old and fun times days
Fun times days?
Great grammar there bud
It looks looks like you had good old fun times playing with grammar lol
This "elder man" is Dom Famularo, one of the world's greatest drummers of all time!! Show some respect.
@@demdrumsandguitar8208 nice full stop dickhead...
In the late 90s, I went to my very first drum clinic. It was Dom. Dude blew me away - and not just with his drumming. He came on stage and first thing he did was cry out how magnificantly fabulous the drums are and wouldn't start playing until everybody first screamed out "HALELLULIA!!" a couple times. :-)
I learned my single most important drum lesson from him on that day. And it didn't really have anything to do with actual drumming. The lesson was ENJOY the instrument. You will never get good at something that you don't enjoy.
I can only say: thank you Dom. Thank you.
This reminds me of my dad when he plays. Watching this gave me so much joy.
jacob johnson Thanks so much!!!
I had a similar reaction except it reminded me of my late drum teacher Dick Dicenso. So much energy and passion.
In 99/00 i was in highschool in Adana, Turkey. One day a famous turkish e-guitar musician Asim Can Gündüz (RIP) visited our school and made a small show for us. After that he intruced us Dom Famularo and told us that he is a famous drummer. This was the first time we heared about him but till today it was one of the best live shows i have ever seen in my life. Thank you Dom that you came all that way to Adana :)
This man smiles so much it’s like he doesn’t have a central nervous system
It's all over the place!
Evans: “our drum heads are indestructible".
Dom: "Let’s find out"
Ad Min Kieth Moon did it first
@@michaelcraig5295 k
More like the symbols lol
Piezzang Van Zyl cymbals **
@@jayrszn9200 more like cymboals lol**
There we go u happy now?🙃
EVERYONE LEAVE MY MAN DOM ALONE!!!!
It's always an absolute joy watching Dom play, always makes me wanna get behind my kit no matter what! The Bob Ross of drumming in my opinion 😊🥁
Adam W there’s literally no negative comments...
@@zachwillowbay1553 Oops, I meant the people at the start of the video! Kinda unclear on my part
Adam W Ahhh..my bad
Dom has that effect on people. He will make you so amped about drums that you can't wait to sit down! Even if people come over and try to make you stop. :)
Hell brother I LOVE DOM!!!THE BEST!!!
How can you not love Dom? A man who is clearly insane and brilliant. Quite the combination
I love that he’s smiling and playing the high hat with his left hand
He is actually an open handed player. Probably a true lefty that learned on a right handed kit, thus forcing dexterity and ultimately making him alot better drummer in the end..
I'm right handed, and played that way for years. 6 months ago I started playing high hats with left hand, and I've improved dramatically. I always felt like I should play like this.
I’m a left handed and right footed drummer.
Seems like I’m not the only one.
ninch onnails names that come to mind with open handed playing for me are Jason Finn from Presidents of the USA. Moose, former BFMV drummer. Ben Minal from Dorje and Josh Eppard from Coheed and Cambria.
dratiM .B I am a natural righty! Check out Billy Cobham. Thanks
Boy: “Dad, where is grandad?”
Dad: “The pocket son, grandad is in the pocket.”
Josh Yarbrough what
Deirdre Morris aka “the zone” lol
It's a British TV show called grandad in my pocket
Eric Moore is the grandad
*nice* im a guitarist and i understand 👌
He’s happy because he enjoys his art and passion. Everyone should be this happy while doing what they enjoy. Great video and cover!🤘🏻
I work at Walmart
Vicktor Marlenko 👌Noice
RIP Dom! You gave drummers a reason to be happy! ♥️😎♥️
His cymbal hits got me fired up!! And he playing a ride pattern with both hands??? I gotta say I enjoyed this video. Respect!!!
Thank you!
That 2:40 hit!
I second that.
@@azrisandman3881 I loved that part!!! Too many favorite parts to this video..... I'm addicted

This guy is in better shape than 90% of guys his age. Good for him he's having a blast. Great job!
99 percent of them .
He is in better shape than 98 percent of most millennials
@@iowa_lot_to_travel9471 Do yourself a favour Gregory and Watch ,No limits Mugenkyo Taiko drummers ,It was played in Liverpool ,I am definitely going to incorporate some of that in to my drumming ,man it was so primal and heavy and real loud .
Drummer need all limbs worked in sync.Not something everyone capable of.Practice and innate talent.
The pure joy and passion he expresses as he plays and in his playing is inspiring
This is what eye of the tiger should be when you pick “expert” mode on rock band.
He plays the drum with feelings. amazing!!!
Tom Rey Thanks so much!!!
That was fun and very tasteful/creative with the "spice" he added to such a classic song!
Glad you enjoyed it Brian!
The look on his face is like when i lost my virginity, epic
@@VaughnGavin_Garden that is this fucked up generation.
Bhahahahah!!! that's awesome!
@@VaughnGavin_Garden i hope he found it...

His face is not what happened when you woke up.
He took your virginity?
Boy this dude is awesome...what a great talented and happy guy.
It's like a drum solo with a song wrapped around it.
LMAO!!!!
Now that’s how “Eye of the tiger” Should be played. 🙌🙌💪💪
YESSSSS!
honestly as a drummer, if i was jamming to this song, I'd have a big smile on my face too. Epic. You're a legend sir

I've never seen anyone play Eye Of The Tiger that flawlessly and just totally brought out everything in the music Dom is a true master of the art of drumming
I love the passion when he plays the drums. One of the best songs of the 80s never gets old.
Selvyn C. Thanks so much!!!
So very much missed!!! Grateful to have known Dom in person.
1:20 to 1:33 - "I think this guy is a metal drummer"
3:03 - "I KNEW IT!!!!!!!!!!"
No..... One of the best drummers around. Seen him at a Drum Clinic. Dom Frommallaro. Not sure if spelling of last name
@@darylcadman2863 Dom Famularo
The way he hammers the china 🤣
Mixing up double base with metal, are we?
Man that double bass drum at 3:03, LOVE IT!!
it just helps the song so much honestly, it isnt even overplaying, it sounds like that double bass section was made for the song
What a breath of fresh air! Amazing enthusiasm and energy! 2.40 just cracks me up - love it!
Craig Boesinger Thanks so much!!!
I was grumpy and sleepy 15 minutes ago, now I'm happ happ happy after watching this fine, happy drummer. I thank you sir.
That switch to double bass was really cool and unexpected
Shreesh Joshi Thanks so much!!!
Hello everyone I’m 14 and I been drumming for 4 years an it is nice to see someone to play with their left. I’m not alone!!!
Excellent...keep going! Thanks!
Gene Hoglan! 👍
CrazyDave C Check out Gene’s DVD’s. Fantastic
Carter Beaufort
P Vann absolutely
Don Famularo is also a great person and the most contagious drummer I've ever met.
I can not help it, i listen to this, and watch him play.. every day. Every day i watch
omg that double bass at the end of the second chorus
Wasn’t expecting it from an older guy haha
@@seadkolasinac7220 Jel ovo pravi profil fakat? Hahahah
That was death metal as fuck. Totally caught me off guard
@@king-manu2758 wow you sound like the biggest cheese ball...."death metal as fuck"
Easy triplets for him ; he easily can as fast as many metal drummers with double bass drums. These legends like Dom Famularo, Dave Weckl, Virgil Donati can play everything better than other drummers. Dom is although one of the best teacher ever. Dom is one of the better ambassador for drums in history. Long Life for Dom 😉
As a bass player primarily I would love to play with this guy. His energy is great!
mindbodylightsound10 Thanks so much!!!
mindbodylightsound10 Thanks so much!!!
You go SiR!!! I love his energy! He look like that kid that has so much energy and just happy to find his groove and no one in his way!!! Love it!
It’s my wish that EVERYONE can find something they can even be 10% as passionate about. I have watched this one countless times, and have shared it with a LOT of people. This is proof in the power of music
Saw him/met him back in 2002 at a drum fest. About the loudest and most powerful drummer out there. A professor through and through
He shows how much he loves drumming and that's nice!
alemon22 Thanks so much!!!
Studied with Dom in '94-'95. Faster feet than a lot of speed metal guys!! Great inspiration!!
So happy playing the drums...high energy and unbridled enthusiasm for the drums and sharing that passion with others. Rest in peace Dom, gone way too soon.
It's such a pure feeling to watch someone do something they enjoy like there's no tomorrow!
3:46 that double bass moment was freaking legendary
Really fantastic
So clean
Amazing style... It seems so easy to do that. Thanks, master!
I got goosebumps man.
This man just makes me smile, with a few tears in my eyes.
You too eh!
Enjoyment has no age limitation
As a metalhead I approve of the double bass part. \m/
Richie Rich Thanks so much!!!
Richie Rich Thanks so much!!!
I'm sure you're aware that the thrash-style, super fast double bass work comes from him. He did it in the late 70s when he shifted to double bass playing as an exercise, having no idea it would ever be used in a song. Charlie from Anthrax learned that technique partially from Dom.
This guy rocks and i hope he keeps rocking many more years to come.
LAYUCHEBI Thanks so much!!!
I met Dom at a clinic a few years back. Really fun guy and really loves drums! I remeber his story about his first time playing a china cymbal in Japan.
Sherpa Jones Thanks so much!!!
Even when he got rejected he managed to bring a smile to my face!
Mauricio Huala Thanks so much!!!
This in my opinion is the best “Eye Of The Tiger” drum cover on UA-cam! It’s just perfect in every way. Good job Dom Famularo and don’t stop drumming!!! 😄
It's not a cover he's not even playing it correctly to be a cover he's playing his own version and it really is easy over the top for the song
@@michaellake7503 oll korrekt, but he still looks happy. Are you happy?
@@michaellake7503 exactly nothing like the proper drums
@@michaellake7503 "Cover" does not mean "identical to the original artist's version". A "cover" doesn't even have to be in the same style as the original.
It's amazing how much just improving the production quality of drums on a track can really modernise it. More than any other aspect I'd say.
I think this might be my favorite video on the internet..... Absolutely killed it!! If you're not smiling while watching thats on you
2:40 that hit to the plate is his seal!!!
This man came to my college in Birmingham UK in late 2014 he told me I had a beautiful smile...he gave such a great motivational speech everybody left the assembly in great spirits
One of the best things I’ve ever seen, in life not just drums
And met Dom twice in Perth Australia in a 20 year period and forgot about him. Until now what a 💎 gem
I absolutely love the double bass and the hard hitting but clean striking.
I like it when people make covers their own and add to it and just vibe on it. Great musicianship.
I watched dom, thomas lang and dave weckl in perth at a drum clinic 3 of the best drummers in the same room was a very special night
Seeing people enjoy tf out of the music they're performing gives me life. 🙏🏻
1st:Great Song!
2nd: nobody interrupts Eye of The Tiger, so those people need to be arrested...
Edward Oleyar Thanks so much!!!

@@DrumeoOfficial Thank you!
@@Bluesky35102 yes! Same here :)
I love this. Dom and Sugarfoot Moffett must be kindred souls with their technique. If you’ve never seen one of his instructional videos, you’re missing out. I had one of his many double bass lessons on VHS in the ‘80s and he’s a remarkable teacher.
