Hey Steve,

Great playing! I love your left hand skills! Drums sound great, and the DV quality really shows. Can't wait to see more!!!

Wow, I just watched the video again on a better system and am really digging it! I enjoy the longer and over the bar line deceptive phrases!

That's the closest Vinniesque playing I've seen to date.
I guess Vinnie missed out on making a video because you have it covered.
Once again, thanks for sharing. Looking forward to the next video, even though I'm still digesting the first one.

NICE solo ! the stuff at the end kills me, very "crunchy" & unique sounding i think. is some of that the alternating hand, double-bass stuff that you showed on the #3 lesson ? my video wasn't exactly synched with the audio for whatever reason.

i have a mac with wmp and i get no video. sounds nice though. this is a lot to ask but is it possible for you to convert it to another format? thanks.

Shedder, is it possible for you to just get a real computer? [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/smarty.gif[/img]

the tom sound is PERFECT on that clip. RCs rule.

IF YOU HAVE ISSUES with this video, make sure you have the LATEST media player (Mac version as well):

Thanks for the compliments guys!

They'll be more, with music! Unfortunately I have only one cam so there will be music, but only drums shown.

Nice drumming Steve, along with some of the Vinnie influence, there are a few things that remind me of a few other guys, a few I know that you really admire. But you got your own thing going and that is COOL! Good work. Like your application of the double stroke with the hands.
