Thomas Pridgen: The Big Drum Solo - from the DVD: Modern Drummer Festival 2008...more Videos here at DRUMMERWORLD: www.drummerworld.com #thomaspridgen #drumsolo #drummerworld
I seen someone commenting on another one of his videos saying he was sloppy & his rolls were mediocre this that, well nothing about this man is mediocre! Have you ever actually heard him talk about music the guy is next next level! I actually watched some of this on mute & just watching him drum looks good
understand he comes from a background of Urban Gospel like me! drumming style like dat is very normal from a background like dat! it's how alot of drummers like me and Thomas learned and many great musicians and artists comes from dat kind of background! Urban Gospel (now known as Gospel Chops) has alot of thrashin'
His Drumming is Out of this Word!
I used to watch this solo over and over back in 2008/2009. Memories..

His "sloppiness" is his efficiency.
Every individual has an individual style! His style is speed and precision!!!
No triggers, no excessive compression, pure drum joy.
No tik tok bs.
Single bass pedal huh? Your foot work is amazing....
Those fast twitch muscles everyone denies exists Sure came in handy 😮
Major Throwback! I had the DVD! Peace, Love & Harmony from Germany!
That kit sounds amazing
Yes: that is how you do it! 😅🤩
Be jealous I have my signature on my own artwork from a TMV concert 2010 Houston:)
El mejor baterista del mundo
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
In usually don't like the sound of DWs but this kit sound great, specially the snare.
Holy shit he was good! I mean he still is of course. He was 25 at the time of this video. 😅
EFFORTLESS!!!!! Wowzer!!!!
Хорооош!!!
Ok, settle down Thomas = D

Such a dynamic drummer. The naysayers are clueless of this guy’s talent. I’d love to see ya’ll do better.
Creative,Toms sound way dead though.
whoah, this guy developed some serious skill since playing that one song with outkast (hey ya!)
ehhh....bang, bang, bang....not much there for me....no soul in this solo...I will pass.
Oh. I can’t stop listening to this. Amazing.
