What a legend!!! I am also 15 years old. To me, if I were to win that drum set, it would only put a smile on MY face. But for me to see someone else win that kit, it put a smile on his, and my face too. I love seeing people smile because this is the last thing they would ever expect to be wished upon. Ben Graham, congratulations man!!! Hopefully you see this comment and reply!!!
I took like an hour writing my entry yet didn't win anything sadly lol. Ofcourse I hoped to win, but that's not the point. Casey reached over a million subs and it's just unbelieveble how he managed to share so much morivation. I'm sure every drummer reaches a point where he/she's like: nah, I don't feel like drumming. Casey managed me to get out of those situation by teaching me to expand my creativity, work on something untill the point I want to reach. The motivation I get from you and your videos is beyond the ammount I could ever wish for. They really stopped me from giving up and even got me into multiple bands. So please Casey, never stop what you do: making video's :)
Coops, you keep the quality and soul! That's why we love you! I am from Ukraine, too bad i can't participate. Winning something would be so damn cool. Like, a broken cymbal would make me scream of happiness.
Thank you to everyone for all of the love and support! I am so surprised by the kindness of the UA-cam community, it is completely flattering. I truly appreciate all of the complements and congratulations, I wish I could personally respond to each one, but I'm a very busy student. Thanks to all of you. I'm very proud and fond of this community of fantastic drummers. I hope that I use this kit I have been gifted with to its maximum potential and the future entertainment of the next generation of drummers. I can not take credit for winning the kit, it is through the success and generosity of Casey and the will of God that it happened to fall into my hands. Thank you all, Merry Christmas, and God Bless! Work Hard, Drum Hard, and Dream Big!!!
This low-key makes me cry. Not that I didn't win that beautiful kit, but that you are almost by definition the most giving, friendly, nicest person on UA-cam. You took one of your achievements, and you turned it into someone else's joy. That makes me happy.
I didn't understand how amazed he is at a set of drums, but then I realized how blown awash I would be with my dream guitar and amp set up in my room when I got home WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW
i don't care that i didn't win. I do care about the happiness that this kid was brought by seeing it! it was worth it! thanks Casey for your ongoing generosity
My 2 year old has been obsessed with drums since he was 6 months old. We came across your channel and he can't stop watching. Thanks for being his inspiration!
Hey man you made a great choice with him. He's got a lot of great advice for a 15 year old, and that's coming from another 15 year old. Seeing his reaction and his excitement, it's hard to even be the slightest bit upset with not winning. Keep on drumming man, you're an inspiration to us all🥁🥁
BOTH of these guys are such an inspiration. I wish I knew them in person. You cannot surround yourself with enough people like this, and they are becoming more and more difficult to find. I had to sell my kit because I can no longer play due to health reasons, so I live vicariously through guys like you guys. I just lost my dad, and so obviously I have been having a difficult time, but I am glad I found this video. It came at just the right time in my life, when I really needed encouragement. My wife is very loving and encouraging of course, but she is hurting as well over Pop's death. So, thank you to both of you guys.
Good on you! Spread the Joy! I was 15 when my parents gave me a Ludwig Smokey Black Vista-Lite set for Christmas. That was 1979 - I still play it today! One of the greatest memories of my life!
Giving away your own baby! What a generous act! Keep on inspiring, receive more blessings. "A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed." (Proverbs 11:25)
Because if he did every video would sound amazing, but not everyone has money to my pearl reference kits, or masterworks. So he plays with cheaper lines like pearl export!
Dear beloved Coop,this is pastor.Ben from India.You are doing a great job as Jesus said,"Love your neighbor as thyself".Well myself was drummer since from the childhood of year old.But God's great miracle is till now I don't have drum set of my own,but I play like as if I have one drum set of my own and practice in it every day.That's a amazing grace of God,Almighty,my savior my Jesus Christ.I want to share with you one of my sound check videos on my friends drums,so would you please give me your Facebook id or any other.?May God bless you and your family for all you are doing with God's love.Amen.
Amazing he totally deserved it!!!!! He had a great message that is sooo true!!! Glad someone who truely deserved it won!!! Thank you Casey for running this whole competition!!! Not many people would do something like this!!!!!!!!!!
Casey, it truly is incredible what you and your channel have become. Ive been a subscriber for years, I first saw you on the August Burns Red Carol of the Bells video, and here you are years later giving back to the UA-cam drumming community you helped inspire and create. Enjoy your holidays with your little one, and we all look forward to many more years of CooperDrummer
No promises, but I may be opening a drum cover channel very soon! I want this set to be so much more than something sitting in my basement. I want it to continue to entertain generations of drummers. No promises though, I still have to check to see if i have the funds for cameras and such :)
Drummer Ben Aye congrats on the big win. Taking your advice. Very inspiring watching this video makes me want to go wake everyone in my house the only way I know how thowin down heat beats on the drums.
my little 2 year old spends moments of his day playing his drum set while imitating you while he watches you play "gonna let it burn" with your drumsticks on fire. thank you so much for inspiring my little son.
He's an eloquent speaker. If you're reading this, Ben, I want to congratulate you on your win and I hope it propels you to new drumming heights and inspires you to become better and inspire others as well.
Absolutely inspirational I'll never give up my dreams even if I don't make it big in the music industry I'll still atleast can play on my drum kit on the side of doing something else cos I love what I do I'm currently studying music and it's so interesting keep up the good work bro you are awesome and this is what music is about putting smiles on people's faces and changing their lives there's no other words to describe u man your just Purley amazing 🥁🥁🎶🎶🇬🇧🇬🇧
I really hope I see more videos like this. This is really cool to watch, and it warms my heart to see so many amazing people get surprised by amazing things. All you amazing people should not go unnoticed. Thank you for doing this.
I remember at the age of 10 being lucky enough to wake up to a dw 5000 classic kit and no word of a lie as soon as I unwrapped it (yes my mum was skilled enough to wrap a 7-piece kit) I went upstairs and cried for 10 whole minutes. I adored her from the minute I clapped eyes on her. Gold broken glass and I was fortunate enough to be blessed with such beauty, so I can totally relate to anyone who gets real emotional to the surprise of drums because they are stunning, unique and fabulous. I hope all the fellow drummers had a great Christmas and woke up to multiple pairs of sticks😁👍🏼
Yknow I'm a bit bummed I didn't win, but that kid, that's a kid that's gonna cherish that kit forever. Fair play Casey for being so kind, you made that kids Christmas.
I'm really glad some one got a gift like this. Hopefully he will take care of it and he can use to aspire other Casey has been doing for the past few years.
Casey! This is great, truly inspiring and bringing such a dream come true to a young inspiring drummer and you are behind this. Nice job! Congratulations on your success on UA-cam and your drumming. I truly appreciate the human spirit behind this, this is what its all about. CHEERS!!
My man Casey giving the kit away to an awesome dude!! Congrats to everyone who won something. And even if you didn't win, still keep playing and getting better. I really would love if Casey would respond but I know that he doesn't want to accept the challenge I have in store for him.
as much as i would have loved to win that amazing kit. The reaction on his face when he got it was priceless. And what all he said is accurate. I use some cheapo ddrum kit and some low end cymbals (but they still sound good) and yes i do want to upgrade, but im fine with what i have now, i could keep going. im just glad to know that the person who got it is going to love and cherish it and not let it collect dust. God bless you, Casey. you truly are an amazing man.
Cooper u are an inspiration to me and my friends who are also drummers. When I watch your videos it reminds me why I love playing the drums so much. Keep up the good work!
I was smiling through the whole video! this guy deserves it so much!! his reaction and overall happiness with the kit just made my day a lot better! cooper, you're truly an amazing person, thanks for the opportunity of entering this giveaway (even though I didn't win anything hahaha) merry christmas from brazil btw!
i am 11 years old and i am self taught and have been playing the since i was 2 years old. your videos inspire me to get better and play every day. keep up the good work
To the people in the comments, " i didn't get anything". (myself included). Drumming, this campaign, and life in general isn't about the materialistic side of things. Take a step back and really look at it. The message behind this campaign is to inspire, motivate, and influence other drummers, young and old, to be the best they can be. That includes being a good person. I really hope sections of the "application" are made public, so everybody can see all the advice and whatnot. I think i was more excited to have my voice heard than win something in the giveaway. To share with such an influence my story, and to just take part in something great. Casey, you're amazing. Keep up the good work, and never stop. I certainly never will. Here's to two million!
Casey you sure have been a blessing to a lot of people and that's awesome. It started when you gave away your pearl session studio classic along with the decade maple kits and now your exx export kit. That's awesome dude! Keep playing and never stop! :)
@coop3rdrumm3r. you my friend are an amazing person !!! props to you for what you do and have done for the drumming community... hope your holidays were rocking. heart of gold bro !
Really you're doing a really good job Casey, bringing a big smile on his face....you're supporting a young drummer and I can totally understand how happy he must have felt getting that kit cause I would react the same if I got a basic kit :)
Who better to win that kit. I entered just because I figured I might as well take part, definitely wasn't expecting to get the kit and obviously neither was he. Such a humble dude, absolutely deserves to have that kit
For 15 he's mature well beyond his years. He's a cool kid.
Oh man he really deserves it! Such a humble guy!
MovieCritics I agree he definitely deserves it
MovieCritics agree very humble smart kid.
MovieCritics Definitely I've been drumming for I think 6 years and I haven't given up. Never will.
What a legend!!! I am also 15 years old. To me, if I were to win that drum set, it would only put a smile on MY face. But for me to see someone else win that kit, it put a smile on his, and my face too. I love seeing people smile because this is the last thing they would ever expect to be wished upon. Ben Graham, congratulations man!!! Hopefully you see this comment and reply!!!
I love people like this. One day I'll be able to do something like this for someone
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas
That guy's 15? I thought he was like 20.
me too
Same
same
CAMPER Honsa me too!!!!
SAMEE BRO
Seems like an amazing kid. He deserves this set. This is awesome👍🏼
That guy is very inspiring and me as a young drummer want to thank him for the inspiration and I want to say he is great
Go to school with the kid. Happy he won it. Congrats to you man!
Matt Reese tell him congrats as well.
Matt Reese tell him I said congrats as well.
he used to be my neighbor
That's so awesome!! You're the man, Casey!
Omg congrats man! Even though I didn't win, I'm still blessed to get signed sticks from Casey.
I took like an hour writing my entry yet didn't win anything sadly lol.
Ofcourse I hoped to win, but that's not the point. Casey reached over a million subs and it's just unbelieveble how he managed to share so much morivation. I'm sure every drummer reaches a point where he/she's like: nah, I don't feel like drumming. Casey managed me to get out of those situation by teaching me to expand my creativity, work on something untill the point I want to reach. The motivation I get from you and your videos is beyond the ammount I could ever wish for.
They really stopped me from giving up and even got me into multiple bands. So please Casey, never stop what you do: making video's :)
Womp wahhhhhhhhhhh
Matthew Dennis I don’t remember asking 7/8 of the people here drum
Coops, you keep the quality and soul!
That's why we love you!
I am from Ukraine, too bad i can't participate. Winning something would be so damn cool. Like, a broken cymbal would make me scream of happiness.
He doesn't look 15 at all lol
Yeah I'm 18 and he looks older than me haha
Wait... there’s no way he’s 15
Thank you to everyone for all of the love and support! I am so surprised by the kindness of the UA-cam community, it is completely flattering. I truly appreciate all of the complements and congratulations, I wish I could personally respond to each one, but I'm a very busy student. Thanks to all of you. I'm very proud and fond of this community of fantastic drummers. I hope that I use this kit I have been gifted with to its maximum potential and the future entertainment of the next generation of drummers. I can not take credit for winning the kit, it is through the success and generosity of Casey and the will of God that it happened to fall into my hands. Thank you all, Merry Christmas, and God Bless! Work Hard, Drum Hard, and Dream Big!!!
Good for him! Great to see someone win it and enjoy it!
Miles McGaffin hey you
Good job on winning the drum set. You're very inspirational.
he did deserve it yo look at his drum set! he needed one! hopefully that inspires him to keep going and become an amazing musician!
This low-key makes me cry. Not that I didn't win that beautiful kit, but that you are almost by definition the most giving, friendly, nicest person on UA-cam. You took one of your achievements, and you turned it into someone else's joy. That makes me happy.
I didn't understand how amazed he is at a set of drums, but then I realized how blown awash I would be with my dream guitar and amp set up in my room when I got home
WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW
i don't care that i didn't win. I do care about the happiness that this kid was brought by seeing it! it was worth it! thanks Casey for your ongoing generosity
This kid has a bright future, many congrats to him:)
Casey has the talent of drumming as god has gifted him this talent And NEVER GIVE UP
Legend says if u this fast, coop will reply
Faster than The Flash playing single strokes!
COOP3RDRUMM3R Haha good one! Thanks for replying! I sent you a message on Instagram :)
COOP3RDRUMM3R hello
COOP3RDRUMM3R I will cry if you respond to this
I want a drum sets
Its good that he is very grateful guy to have that set. Many others would take it for granted.
Why am I almost crying at the beginning?
My 2 year old has been obsessed with drums since he was 6 months old. We came across your channel and he can't stop watching. Thanks for being his inspiration!
Postage to the UK was expensive 😂😂 fair play to the winner 👍🏻💯
good
Hey man you made a great choice with him. He's got a lot of great advice for a 15 year old, and that's coming from another 15 year old. Seeing his reaction and his excitement, it's hard to even be the slightest bit upset with not winning. Keep on drumming man, you're an inspiration to us all🥁🥁
wait he's 15 he looks way older than that congrats tho
Druming pop
BOTH of these guys are such an inspiration. I wish I knew them in person. You cannot surround yourself with enough people like this, and they are becoming more and more difficult to find. I had to sell my kit because I can no longer play due to health reasons, so I live vicariously through guys like you guys. I just lost my dad, and so obviously I have been having a difficult time, but I am glad I found this video. It came at just the right time in my life, when I really needed encouragement. My wife is very loving and encouraging of course, but she is hurting as well over Pop's death. So, thank you to both of you guys.
The kit I have is a Gretsch maple wood love my set.
Brian Mcclane that's what I have
Brian Mcclane Omg I want that kit so bad
lol its a nice blue color (:
Brian Mcclane dude Gretsch kits are amazing, I have a Gretsch set as well. I love it.
Good on you! Spread the Joy! I was 15 when my parents gave me a Ludwig Smokey Black Vista-Lite set for Christmas. That was 1979 - I still play it today! One of the greatest memories of my life!
Am I the only one that wanted to win so bad and doesn't even have a drum set and wished everyday that it would be on their doorstep
Negative Nya I have that as well ur not on your own!
Negative Nya I wonder what his actual backstory was that lured Cooper.
Giving away your own baby! What a generous act! Keep on inspiring, receive more blessings.
"A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed." (Proverbs 11:25)
i wanted that drumset so bad i couldnt stand it. but congrats to you man and merry christmas.
Such a cool moment! Congrats to that kid! I can tell he'll be a drummer forever!
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Wow, what a great kid and deserving winner! Congrats to Ben and all the winners!
How come Cooper doesn't play the high end Pearl kits?
Because if he did every video would sound amazing, but not everyone has money to my pearl reference kits, or masterworks. So he plays with cheaper lines like pearl export!
Casey, You are the most humble and kindest person in the world. Keep it up and God bless you
Wow Casey you are the best but I wish I won that throw
AussieTheDrummer 30 Same here
So good to see someone so genuine and down to earth winning the drum set! Congratulations bro keep drumming!!
You should play his old kit tho
Dear beloved Coop,this is pastor.Ben from India.You are doing a great job as Jesus said,"Love your neighbor as thyself".Well myself was drummer since from the childhood of year old.But God's great miracle is till now I don't have drum set of my own,but I play like as if I have one drum set of my own and practice in it every day.That's a amazing grace of God,Almighty,my savior my Jesus Christ.I want to share with you one of my sound check videos on my friends drums,so would you please give me your Facebook id or any other.?May God bless you and your family for all you are doing with God's love.Amen.
Ben Hail Lmao wtf
Amazing he totally deserved it!!!!! He had a great message that is sooo true!!! Glad someone who truely deserved it won!!! Thank you Casey for running this whole competition!!! Not many people would do something like this!!!!!!!!!!
I think almost everyone said dont give up
Casey, it truly is incredible what you and your channel have become. Ive been a subscriber for years, I first saw you on the August Burns Red Carol of the Bells video, and here you are years later giving back to the UA-cam drumming community you helped inspire and create. Enjoy your holidays with your little one, and we all look forward to many more years of CooperDrummer
First things first, he'll change that head on the bass drum.
he totally deserved it, and casey is such a great person for doing this!
Fuck , i cant stop smiling 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Amazing reactions! You can see the emotions he feels when he realizes what happened!
Does this guy have his own channel?
No promises, but I may be opening a drum cover channel very soon! I want this set to be so much more than something sitting in my basement. I want it to continue to entertain generations of drummers. No promises though, I still have to check to see if i have the funds for cameras and such :)
+Drummer Ben sounds good :) I'll stick around if that does happen
Drummer Ben Aye congrats on the big win. Taking your advice. Very inspiring watching this video makes me want to go wake everyone in my house the only way I know how thowin down heat beats on the drums.
chuck galligar haha I know how you feel. Unfortunately, it seems like drumming has a schedule sometimes! Too bad obsession for it doesn't.
Drummer Ben are u 15 yrs old seriously?
my little 2 year old spends moments of his day playing his drum set while imitating you while he watches you play "gonna let it burn" with your drumsticks on fire. thank you so much for inspiring my little son.
Who screamed "fuck" when it showed the reaction time on the screen?
he said "Hell"
He's an eloquent speaker. If you're reading this, Ben, I want to congratulate you on your win and I hope it propels you to new drumming heights and inspires you to become better and inspire others as well.
when you immediately realize you didn't win anything
not trying to be a debby downer though, congrats to ben
That was super nice!! Good on ya Casey and congratulations to the person who won Casey’s kit! Hope he’s still rocking the kit
I didn't get anything, I was hoping for sticks
Wow that was a good thing to see a full drum set when you enter your house. Amazing!
What the hell, there's no way that kid is 15.
Ikr!? thats what I was saying too!
thought he was like 30.
brett farv In his 20's
I wish I can meet you and
Absolutely inspirational I'll never give up my dreams even if I don't make it big in the music industry I'll still atleast can play on my drum kit on the side of doing something else cos I love what I do I'm currently studying music and it's so interesting keep up the good work bro you are awesome and this is what music is about putting smiles on people's faces and changing their lives there's no other words to describe u man your just Purley amazing 🥁🥁🎶🎶🇬🇧🇬🇧
HES 15 WHAT!!?? HE LOOKS 18. Im 15 and I have a higher pictched voice than him.
I really hope I see more videos like this. This is really cool to watch, and it warms my heart to see so many amazing people get surprised by amazing things. All you amazing people should not go unnoticed. Thank you for doing this.
I feel like you shouldve given it to someone under privileged.
OtherGandhi makes sense, i cant scratch a drumset past 300
Why??? So they can break drumheads and drumsticks and can’t buy new ones? Then the kit would just sit there wasting away.
he looked stunned when he walked in. still a little salty i didnt win but you cant be mad after his reaction. see yall at 2 million, love you casey.
I remember at the age of 10 being lucky enough to wake up to a dw 5000 classic kit and no word of a lie as soon as I unwrapped it (yes my mum was skilled enough to wrap a 7-piece kit) I went upstairs and cried for 10 whole minutes.

Wow. What a wise, humble, and great kid.
Casey! This is great, truly inspiring and bringing such a dream come true to a young inspiring drummer and you are behind this. Nice job! Congratulations on your success on UA-cam and your drumming. I truly appreciate the human spirit behind this, this is what its all about. CHEERS!!

I use some cheapo ddrum kit and some low end cymbals (but they still sound good) and yes i do want to upgrade, but im fine with what i have now, i could keep going. im just glad to know that the person who got it is going to love and cherish it and not let it collect dust. God bless you, Casey. you truly are an amazing man.

Cooper u are an inspiration to me and my friends who are also drummers. When I watch your videos it reminds me why I love playing the drums so much. Keep up the good work!

Gj Mr. COOPER ! I like to see things like that in life. It always gives me a boost to know that some good people still lives on this earth !
I was smiling through the whole video! this guy deserves it so much!! his reaction and overall happiness with the kit just made my day a lot better! cooper, you're truly an amazing person, thanks for the opportunity of entering this giveaway (even though I didn't win anything hahaha)

Can't stop smiling! :D
I'm so happy that your kit will bring joy, happiness and fun in another person life!
That's really cool I hope he feels happy now. he is a very lucky winner
Who better to win that kit. I entered just because I figured I might as well take part, definitely wasn't expecting to get the kit and obviously neither was he. Such a humble dude, absolutely deserves to have that kit
Great stuff Casey! I'm very happy for him! Drumming is a great thing and I hope one day I'll have a kit of my own as well.
