As the ceiling flew away…. Such a great song! And such a great drum cover..
Thanks 🙏 David, ya it came out well 👍 it’s more of a jam song on the drums 🥁 I’m definitely winging it and I’m sure if I played it 100 times I would play it differently every time. So I just played it Kenny style and got a few of the fills very close at times.
I’m getting more comfortable at this point after my month lay off as well as getting more comfortable with the kit configuration.
Even though the one rack Tom set up is cool 😎, I prefer having more drums because I’m used to it.
I wasn’t sure this actual take was the one that I was going to use, I didn’t even get to listen to it after recording, I had a utube drummer text me and we got into a long conversation, then my wife dragged me upstairs for dinner. Luckily the sound mix was very nice 👍
I made one snare hit, near the end that I wish I could take back, but only I will know.
I’m lucky if anyone actually listens to a minute of the videos, so I’m good 🙂
Well Ken, you’ll always have me in the fan club.. I watched the whole thing.... twice 😎👍🏻
@@dwstoeckel4740 , thanks 🙏 yes I’ve watched it 10 times myself, I like watching my progress, I’ve come a long way.
I watch my videos and enjoy them, I just wish I had a consistent sound mix, I was listening to my Alice Cooper Welcome to my Nightmare tonight and although I did a good job on everything, the snare sound and mix , is so disappointing 😩
One of my favorite songs of all time this, reminds me when i was very young and my older brother played it, well played TD👏👏
Thanks 🙏 I remember when it first came out, I’m old 😁😁😁
Sick! You should enter the iRock Drum Contest!
Thanks so much 🙏 very kind words 🙌 I’m just an average basement drummer 🥁 having fun 😊
Great job my friend! Sounds nice! Tasteful drumming! Such a cool and relaxing song🤘🤘🤘
Thanks 😊
Thanks 🙏 good jam song 🎵
This gave me goosebumps right off the bat!!!!!! I absolutely loved it 😍,,,,,, incredible drumming,,,, great dynamics “!!!!!!!You brought this iconic song alive!!!!!!! Bravo Ken!!!!!! Onc3 again,,, you never cease to amaze me
Thanks so much 🙏 I was so tired yesterday I’ve slept in the chair then I decided I’m gonna go down and tune a couple of my toms, once I was down there, I got some energy to play it and I did this song and that’s when you phoned me I just completed this song.
It came out very good 👍 thanks
@@The-Tired-Drummer no problem, my friend, it’s my pleasure, it’s always a privilege to be able to see you drum
@@bryandrums32 , I’m probably playing better because of all your positive feedback you always give me.
@@The-Tired-Drummer awww,,,,, my bro,,,, I just love watching you play, you really are just one incredible drummer
@@bryandrums32 , New song coming tonight, be uploaded shortly, all ready editing and ready to go.
Brilliant 😊
Thanks 🙏 , I was so tired yesterday that I didn’t expect to record a song 🎵, I had just gone down to tune a couple of the drums..🥁
I was feeling better and played along with this song and it worked out well 😁
A truly amazing drum cover. You did a great job on this. Sounds alot better than the one you did a long time ago.
Thanks 🙏 yes it came out well 😀 , I wasn’t expecting to drum 🥁 today because I was so tired 🥱
It was actually recorded in a few takes, no frustration, it’s a jam along song 🎵 impossible to remember everything the real drummer is playing.
fantastic ! great upload !!
Thanks Paul, I didn’t even expect to drum yesterday, I was just too tired. I was watching a utube video on tuning drums and decided to mess around my rack tom’s , once I started playing, I felt a boost of energy to make this cover.
It’s a great song 🎵 I’ve always loved it, but since I don’t use drum less tracks it’s always a challenge, so I just jammed along and with in a few takes, I felt this was good enough. I just try to get close enough to the record.
@@The-Tired-Drummer I hate playing along with songs that still feature drums, I prefer to go for drumless karaoke versions, although that is sometimes disappointing, and lately I sometimes also use "moises", an application where you can set the drum line can be removed of existing original songs
@@PaulDes , I tried Moises , I have a year subscription. It wasn’t for me, I found when I removed the drums, other things were taken out as well. I even had a couple regular followers tell me something was lacking in my cover. Perhaps I try it again ?
@@The-Tired-Drummer yes, the quality of the tracks that have been edited by "moises" suffers from the quality, which you do not have with the karaoke version, but that is sometimes annoying because you also hear that it is not the original version... . choose between the plague and cholera, as we say here in Belgium
Nice drumming Ken!
Thanks Earl 🙏 now this is one of the songs where a drum-less track would have come in handy. 🥁🥁🥁
@@The-Tired-Drummer drumless tracks to me are the reason I play drum covers. I hate trying to get my parts perfect and tight with the drum track. That’s because the mix is harder, I like to play with my feel even though I try to get the drumming close. I just did a Doobie Brothers song (unreleased) and left the entire drum part in because they used two drummers and percussion. I turned out great … I’ll release it soon. But generally drumless tracks let my drumming be heard and that’s what is fun for me! Hearing me play the song … you should try it! Moises is free to try! Great program!
@@earldrum , I have tried Moises , I have a paid subscription, I don’t like the results when I remove the drummer, to me there’s just something missing sonically. So after a few songs I stopped using it. I just try to get close enough with my Kenny style 😎😎😎
@@The-Tired-Drummer you have to do what works for you Ken! I find when my “drum mix” is right nothing feels missing in the track, but I understand your comment! I love the getting a “great drum sound” aspect of making drum covers! That’s what makes me tick! Have a great day!
Drumcover at the top, well done to you and very good choice of music, I love it!! new subscriber !! I also make covers on drums on rock and metal, you will tell me what you think!! still bravo
Thanks 🙏 for watching and your support for subscribing 🥁 I’ll be checking you out.
Aww, to be a junior in high school again. This one brings back some fond memories, and your drumming is spot on, my friend.
You mentioned that you wish you had one more smaller tom. What is the name of the color of your set, and what size would you like to have?❤️🙏👏❤️🙏👏❤️
@@gregwonhoff7161 I’ve looked for a matching Tom and there’s nothing to be found anywhere, the color is discontinued years ago.
Mapex Armory 8x7 Transparent Walnut . I do have that size drum on my Yamaha kit, and have used it before, perhaps I could give it a try again, a different color but with my lighting effects perhaps it wouldn’t look that bad ?
Let’s just hope I don’t hurt my back again 🤣🤣🤣
@@The-Tired-Drummer with pleausure dude!!!
