When C.J. and I listened to "One Love Revolution," we could picture you recording specific fills and rhythms for it more than a year after our visit to the studio; that's how much of an impression you made on us with your talent and professionalism. Watching this brings back some great memories. Thanks for the new music. I'll be praying that God will hold you close and continue to bless you as you've done so much for others!
Man, I used to watch your videos you recording the Pillar album back in the day, and I remember setting up similar since I've always loved your playing because you're such a versatile dude, always so smooth in any genre. I'm so glad I came across this video after so many years. hahaha.
This man got a Remo head on his snare, an Aquarian head on his kick, and Evans heads on his toms. 😂 If he weren't my favorite drummer, I don't think I could forgive him for that
+Lester Estelle check out my videos- I'm 9 so I'm not as good as you hahaha, but I love to drum1! I am going to do a cover of one of my favorite pillar songs soon
Are you Loving enough to enter heaven? Have you always loved and obeyed God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength? Have you always Loved your neighbor and enemies selflessly, thinking nothing of yourself? Have you always put God and others before yourself in every thought, word, and deed? Do you deny yourself and renounce everything that you are in order to esteem God above everyone & everything? Would you be willing to sacrifice your life that God may have all the glory even if you still were rejected and abandoned at the end? If this is not your heart; then you have not enough Love to be accepted into Heaven; "He that Loves not (selflessly) knows not God for God IS (sacrificial and selfless) Love"
Not a popular statement but it is spiritually true and biblically accurate;...... "In order to be proficient in the arts, you must have the devil in you"
Tell that to King David, who played the harp and who wrote nearly half of the Psalms in the Bible. When King Saul was tormented by demons, David would play the harp to soothe his thoughts and his heart. It takes a man of great talent to play in such a beautiful way that you are able to put a man to sleep. And David was a man after God's own heart, which God said Himself. Being proficient in the arts is a gift from God that we can use for His glory, not by making a pact with Satan or having him in our hearts.
draceyona...the same king David that sinned with Bathsheba, committed adultery, and had her husband murdered? are these the works of God or the works of the devil? Every believer has a mixture of faith and unbelief within until full sanctification eradicates all unbelief which is of its father the devil; Jesus said; "if your souls eye be single, your whole body will be full of light with no part dark" ...you can use Godly men and scripture to justify sin within; I know because I have done it before myself...until God removes all earthly desire from your heart, your unbelief will even use scripture, just as Satan misused it with Jesus when in the wilderness in Matthew chapter 4, to justify sin within instead of siding with God against yourself and confessing everything in you apart from grace to be worthless and deserving of judgment and condemnation...Paul said; "In my flesh dwells NO good thing" whereas you are implying there is...Jesus said in Luke chapter 7; "To what then shall I liken the men of this generation, and what are they like? They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to one another, saying: ‘We played the flute for you, And you did not dance; We mourned to you, And you did not weep" ...Why? because when a Godly man is sanctified to great length, the natural desires, along with its glorying and weeping over natural means such as music or movies etc..is crucified and dead and the world will no longer move you or connect with you because you live on a higher plain of existence which is faith alone in Christ alone by grace alone...your citizenship will truly be in heaven; not just one foot in the world and another in heaven... It is only the unsanctified person that defends the pleasures and natural talents of this world, even using them for God; we can bring NOTHING to God...We can offer only one thing, and that is by faith, to be a living sacrifice unto God as he crucifies our lust for pleasure, music, talents, natural minds, etc,,everything worldly in us that He alone may have the glory though we get nothing in return...this is a selfless sacrifice...

draceyona Are you Good enough to go to heaven and escape judgment? How many lies have you told in your life? Ever stolen? ever looked with lust? Ever used God's name in vain? If you have done those things then God sees you as a lying, thieving, blasphemous adulterer at heart and you must face God on judgment day; Revelation 21v8 says; "All Liars will have their part in the lake of fire" the bible declares that "No thief, adulterer, or blasphemer will enter" The guilty will perish eternally in torments in Hell. That is not God's will. You broke God's laws but Jesus paid your fine! Repent, turn from sin, and trust alone in Jesus Christ to save you from the wrath that is to come....
Lester Estelle $100? You're kidding! Man.. I wish I had gotten my Orange County snare for that much. I dare you to record a pillar song on a Ludwig Questlove Breakbeats drum kit. You might actually be surprised at how deep the kit sounds considering the drum sizes :D
Lester Estelle I really dig your playing and that snare just sounds perfect! I also own a Ludwig Acrolite, but a 70's one. Anyways, can you give me a tip how to tune it to get a snare sound similar to the one in the video? Keep up that great drumming!

What is snare???
5x14 black acrolite. $100 bucks!
Thanks very much for the answer :)
