    Damn, this is probably one of the most genuine things I’ve seen in a long while! Dude has no ego, no superiority complex whatsoever and he doesn’t care what people think of him and to give such a raw look into his life and character is putting himself in a very vulnerable place!!

I've been working since 2019(start of the "pandemic") to regain my health I didn't know I lost until I couldn't get to the gym. but I'm 90% back and no longer feeling older than my age(63). The Groovefathers' story and your/the fans take on this marvelous man has got me PUMPED to finish my path I started in 1986 to make ART. The Spark is Real. Peace All

      to4507 I absolutely like what you wrote. I feel the exact same way you do. it's amazing for someone to open up to tell you they're depressed and to lay out what's been going on with him for years, I don't know when I've heard anything like that in years from anybody. that's the kind of guy you want to hang around you want to get to know even more because he's real, doesn't have an ego like you said. this was one amazing video and I'm super inspired and I thank you for your comments because you're right on track and I feel the same way this guy is amazing and his drumming is through the roof, I've been drumming for 30 years. so I love the drums just like he has. anyway thank you for your comments we both understand this guy is very fucking cool. 😮

      Leider kann ich nur auf deutsch antworten. Aber wenn du Musiker bist ist alles andere egal, mach bitte weiter Musik, Menschen kommen, Menschen gehen, doch Musik bleibt für immer. Musik ist Leben. Musik ist wie Physik, nein Musik ist Physik! Ich kann leider kein Instrument spielen, ich benutze Computer dafür, aber das ist nicht das selbe 🤷‍♂️. Künstler wie Du mit einem Talent müssen es leben, wir müssen Menschen finden die zusammen Musik machen.

      Translation of his reply in German to English:
      Unfortunately, i can only reply in German. But when you are a musician, nothing else really matters, please keep on making music, people come, people go, but music stays forever. Music is life. Music is like physics, no, music IS physics. Unfortunately, i cannot play an instrument, i use the computer for it, but that's not the same. Artists like you with such a talent must live it, we have to find people who want to make music together.

      Except its definitely not true. We could all practice sprinting perfectly everyday but we'll never be Usain Bolt. All of the greatest musicians all worked like crazy but for every Paul Gilbert or Steve Vai there are 100k other people who practiced just as much as them but aren't nearly as good. At the end of the day 99.999% of people could never reach the very top level of any skill without being born with an exceptional natural ability. It doesn't mean we shouldn't all strive to be our best though. This guy definitely worked his ass off but he was also born with a natural predisposition to be a amazing drummer.

      For example, a simple question for Parenthood influence is "Who bought him the percussion when he was 12 and additionally gave him the possibility to play somewhere without beeing killed by his parents or neighbours?"

As with anything that you do that YOU or I put name on from brushing my teeth to driving a tractor I engage with the target GAME-LIKE, the very best or even perfection. I was raised up hearing "if your going to do something go in 100% or do not do it" basically.
      PURPOSE is so huge for a man also, trust me at 60 & widowed, retired I am finding it very very difficult to go all in on anything [failing physically & cognitive[?] & $$] kind of getting sluggish......[or weak in my purpose maybe?] I could run on but YES brother it happens, and you will find it if you keep looking, moving forward....hell even sideways helps for me 60 lmao! The other attribute maybe "No FeaR" of others or anything. oh also PICTURE it !!! → We do not get what we WANT really, but what we PICTURE. But yes that requires a clear target......[or] purpose !!!

      I started drumming in 2004, and to this day I have never jammed with anyone else or played a gig. No one understands this lol. For me, it is about learning the drum part of songs that I either a) love, or b) songs that I feel challenged by. When my weaknesses are exposed while learning the song, I work on the weakness until I feel like playing that song is a fuckin joy, not an exercise. Many days for me also consist of just having a playlist of songs that I love playing and then just playing along….no exercises or trying to learn something new.
      I have absolutely zero desire to play with anyone else lol. I am nowhere near the skill or talent level of this guy, but I can totally relate to it being all about the drums and nothing to do with playing music.

      Spain is still usually a shit hole for talent; luck of opportunities for really talented people that end up in mediocrity, resentful, and voting for the worst politicians ever that cater to that resentfulness. This begins in schools and continues in unis and in the work place. The main reason is that Spaniards are insecure (wrong education) thus are afraid of talent (in various ways) and tend to mutilate it (in various ways).

An I’m happy that I can sit around a campfire drinkin brews with friends an play an sing all kinds of songs an that keeps me happy an sane. An sometimes I’ll get grumpy an then realize I haven’t played in a while an then when I do an I feel normal again an content. lol. Good luck! PEACE!

    And I so appreciate your authenticity and sincerity sir! Muchas Gracias!!
    I’m the other end of the spectrum, a guitarist who didn’t walk the path of passion to start (cause it didn’t pay shit and baby was hungry) so I put together some technique and a fair few songs, bit by bit, year over year for 35 years or so now.
    I started drumming about 2010 to help my rhythm and it really blossomed my playing. My career is over now, and I’ve been putting some steady work into vocal technique and practice as well as hitting some new plateaus with both guitar and drums. (How to say I’m ADHD without saying hyper focus can be a superpower)
    I now kind of have the time to put a lot more focus into the whole package and find out if I really have something to say or not before I die. I’ve always had this delusion that I do, but my therapist says that it’s quite common, who knows?
    You’re an inspiration sir and I can’t wait to see what either of us do next !
