These Guys playing are the top of the top players ..this was just a quick improve. These Guys teach the top players of drum corps all around the world ..they are masters of rhythms and Technics., one of them teaches also top Set players for different bands such as Elton Johns Drummer --Marianas Trench Drummer --Hedleys drummer --Nickel Backs Drummer ..another one the the Guys playing was Carly Rae Jepsens drummers teacher ,Call Me MayBe ?
Well, you are sort of right...Jim I believe has pretty much beaten him most times in solos and drum corps comps..but really, they are both magnificant snare drummers who no doubt have a huge amount of respect for each other and there really isn't much between them..honestly.
The greatest drummers to live are on that stage I was taught by John Fisher had 2 weeks of personal instruction went from solid grade 3 to grade 1 and alot tighter game would have been great to see this live
what a lot of drummers from other styles dont know or understand about some of these players ,, they are the best in the world,, and can play other stlyes of drums.. and set ..John Fisher teaches some of the best players on earth,Elton Johns drummer,Nickel Backs drummer,Green days drummer,Hedlys drummer are just a few he teaches ,.. you can neve find a youtube of John playing set but he can..
@BRICKDRAGLINE Top secret is girl guides compared to all these guys dont ever mention them fools in the same sentance as these men. Its like Girl guides against the British SAS Dont ever speak again.
@mkhammer99 Wow someone who actually knows a bit about John i had the pleasure to be trained by him for months in my life for weeks at a time often he told me the story of him and Jim K. Jim told John he is the best drummer in the world hands down.
Can you adjust the pitch of this drum to suit the different scales of songs. Or is the tabla pitch fixed. Indian songs have various scales and pitches. Can it be adjusted
haha bass drummer is great crack..what a legend..great to see people feeling the rythem of the beat and dissapointed in angus though.. that top hand was off.. high A was pitched too high.. but other than that great entertainment from "hoss" as mentioned below V
No one can argue that Top Secret is awesome at what they do. Their choreography is unmatched. That being said, there is not a drummer on this stage who is not a good enough drummer to be in Top Secret and there are several on this stage who are way better drummers than anyone Top Secret has ever had.
AWESOME! To take part in a cool drumming contest, check out the Tyfry.com drumming contest sponsored by Jim Kilpatrick, Scott Currie and Cameron's drumming studio. Loads of great prizes to be had.
I once witnessed an impromptu battle of the drums at the Aylmer, ON Legion one Remembrance Day after the services when we had all repaired to the Legion hall and were greeted by mugs of hot rum ('twas a bitter cold day). A little later the drummers of the St. Thomas, ON Police Pipe and Drum Band began. It went on close to 10-15 minutes. It was fierce, awesome, primeval. I'll never forget it.
Just as the pipes are the most difficult and complex melodic instrument to learn, so highland snare drumming is the most advanced and technically complex form of percussion there is.
Very good. Bits of Top Secret Drum corps 2006 and a bit from Simon Grant there aswel on the backsticking flams. Great drummer though very good i liked :)
@lowfiwhiteguy they are two entirely different disciplines...its like comparing a cellist to a bass guitar player... a kit player will take those rudimential skills learned early in their career and transfer them to two surfaces while playing with both feet, and a snare player will develop them into something entirely different, neither can be described as better, or as you like to put it, harder, than the other
