Drumeo - Hearing a song for the first time

This series is amazing. They play a song without the drums and have their guest drummer come up with a drum part after one or two listens. I think Josh did a video like this a while back with a bassless track. I am so far away from being able to do this on bass that it might as well be the moon, but I would like to get there someday.

This guy really nails this song. His ability to hit every transition amazes me and I honestly think his take is better, more interesting and fun to listen to than the original.

Yeah I really like these too, and have been watching them recently…the Chad Smith one is good, and the Domino Santantonio ones are too, and I watched Jonathan Moffetts one yesterday (amazing self taught drummer), he did a one taker too
amazing to see the musicianship on the fly as they craft a part

Oh, yeah, that’s also them who had an episode with Larnell Lewis doing a Metallica tune, didn’t they!? That was pretty impressive!
Cool stuff!

yeah, I guess they’ve been doing this series for a while now, like years I think. And I realize these guys are all professionals, but I’m always super impressed.

Chad Smith’s 30 Seconds To Mars video blew me away. 30 seconds of listening and then he just nailed it.
