  • One listen to Mastodon's new single and I knew I wanted to try it on the drums. It's always a workout playing along with Brann. And it's always a lot faster than I think going into it.
    Only one broken stick, but lots of wood chips. Anybody need some hickory mulch?
    I proudly endorse Murat Diril handmade Turkish cymbals.

    The thing I love about your channel is you are badass for one, but you don't over play to show off. You still showcase your skills and add some of your own style without going over the top. Perfect for drummers who are trying to learn the covers nearly note for note. Cheers

      Recording those songs for Benn are keeping me on top of my game drumming-wise, with all of that double bass. It was hard to walk for a day or so after recording Deadhead!
