10 year old Alex Shumaker playing I stand Alone with Jackyl During Ohio Bike Week in Sandusky, OH alexshudrums www.alexshumaker.com @alexshudrums (Twitter & Instagram)
@Cuzz Ican video was filmed from back stage to the side. This is an area where the sound isn't the greatest since the main speakers are facing away from that spot. Thats why they need ear monitors so they can hear the sound themselves. LOVE how Alex just ripped them outta his ears like "Dont need that leash man...i got da beat! LOL
First off this young man is just insanely good!! And love that moment he doesn’t agree with his ear pieces and just tosses them aside and than kept it rocking even harder like nothing was happening! This man is just a dammm fountain off inspiration and passion!
That’s what band class is for. Unfortunately they teach you orchestral music though. Tubas and clarinets and xylophones and the like. No guitar, and certainly no drums, least not like this here.
Unfortunately, this country jeeps electing people who want to constantly cut taxes in the rich, refuse to give teachers paradises, and refuse to fund education in general. The result: Gym classes are now once every 8 days, schools without instruments, and sub par teachers because the schools cannot compete against private industry for pay.
I love the idea of a School of Rock. But let them join the class that suits their level. Honestly I hate that if you're in grade 11 and decide you wanna learn how to play an instrument, you get thrown into grade 11 Band class, instead of the beginner level. If there was a Rock School, have different levels rather than different grades. In grade 12 but never touched a guitar in your life? Go to level 1. In grade 9 and already play the drums like a pro? Go to level 5. Heck, let non-students come in. You're 35 and wanna take your skills to the next level? Come on in! The School of Rock welcomes anyone with an enthusiasm for rock, and a desire to learn.
@@markworkman5806 Did jesus reach you to call ppl STUPID . i think NOT . Wow some nerve you have it was the TALENT that young man has, a negitive comment like you posted was not even relivent.TO THE VIDEO AND WHY IT WAS POSTED. U should be ashamed of yourelf . And there is NOTHING YOU CAN SAY TO JUSTIFY yourself on this . Might as well say you are sorry publically and try to redeem yourself.Be a wise man and keep the foolishness at bey.
I loved how the band was playing standing next to him until they realized he was doing just as good as their drummer......a couple timed they turned around to either check on him or, they were completely in awe! You could see the look on their faces when they all turned back around "awe hell, he's got this for real!"
This kid has got it. Not only is he talented, he's got the showmanship to go with it. He's a natural and it's refreshing to see the younger generation carry on rock/metal. And a big kudos to the band for what they did for that kid. More bands should take note.
@@hotdogpepper8410 Nope! If You Watched The Band's Drummer He Is A Grown Man & At A Certain Point in The Song He Too Felt The Music & Stood To Play One Part!! I Agree With Other Commenter, That Jump as He Drums Will Be His Trademark Move!!
@@alexshudrums I Hope You See The Comment Above This One & The Few I Left!! My Son's Band I Mentioned Above is ALLUVION, Check Them Out on The Streaming Services!! KEEP ROCKIN SWEETIE!!
I am blown away by this young man. He owned the stage, the crowd, and the song. I hope I live long enough to see this young man have a band of his own. Well done kiddo. You made an old man believe true R&R will survive this modern-day sugar-coated pop music crap.:)
@@bigjohn3928 I used to play Down on Me in one of the MANY bands I have been in. I also know "When will it Rain - ?" and I'm pretty sure I used to know "The Lumberjack". I actually got to see them live once and THESE GUYS ROCK. All Hail JACKYL. I play Bass and do vocals by the way. I'm 61.
This is the kind of child talent savant that doesn't come around everyday. He's a rare musical kid genius..and can we let Jackyl know how damn rad they are for putting this kid on to show the world...this band never dissapoints and they always come with friendly vibes.
All the parents that make excuses for their bratty kids saying they're too young to be dedicated to something should be ashamed. That kid is gonna make it. And everyone knows that drummers are hot. 😜
Damn!! I started to learn drums when I was 5. I didn’t have my first real gig until I was 20. This kid has my respect. Keep on rocking drummer brother🤘🤘
THANK YOU JACKYL for supporting Talented Hard Working Kids who ARE THE FUTURE OF ROCK AND ROLL. The Caretakers of Good Music in the Future!! Thanks Guys You are Awesome for this!!
This kid's amazing, not only is he keeping up with the band and in perfect sync with their drummer, the way he plays he looks like a 10-year-old Tommy Lee!! Lol 🤘
I love 3 things about this How much love Jackyl had for Alex How amazing two drum sets in time sound How Alex beat those skins like they owed him money lmao
Alex you were AMAZING here & how cool was that to play with Jackyl 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻. And now you are BEYOND AMAZING!!! Keep reaching for the star with your drums & singing !!! You're totally blessed 😊❤️
I could watch this a million times!!!!! This is winning at parenting!!! When he jumps and smashes the cymbals!!!!!!! Gives me goosebumps!!!! This kid jams!
I love when rock bands give kids a chance to come on stage and show how musically gifted they really are!! Hat's off to the artist who make these kids dreams come true!!!!
Growing up as a kid and playing guitar. I love seeing a kid today playing an instrument instead of a video game. Much respect to your parents for supporting you passion.
Thank God for kids like this who have real Talent. This is our future generation and little man is making me proud of it for the first time. And we need to definitely keep Music Class in School.💯
that's got to be the greatest thing I ever saw, I always wanted to learn how to play the drums my whole life now I'm 50 and nobody ever has tried to even think about teaching me and yes it's one dream that I'll never come true for me God bless that little kid and hope he does well
Okay that kid could hit. Great technique in perfect timing. He showcased his skills in a professional manner. Keep up the hard work young man you will go far.
I saw Jackal in concert and went on their tour bus in Knoxville TN in my early 20s. They are awesome and I just showed my 9 year old son this video. Alex is AWESOME. Keep rockin' Alex. You're AMAZING 👏 💖
Alex smashed this and credit to Jackyl for letting him play with them. Not many would do that. That is what you call " Southern generosity and respect." Another reason why I live Jackyl. See a big future in Alex's life. Good luck and keep playing.
It's kids like Alex that give me faith in Rock and music in general. You'll never see this kind of professionalism in any other genre on such a regular basis with such passion in the fan lucky enough to perform. Rock will always be the King of music.
This absolutely brilliant, 10 minutes of pure rock, Jackyl are so nice and give Alex the time of his life. You're a natural talent, keep it that way man.
Alex tosses his left drumstick in the air at 5:45 and catches it effortlessly on the down beat of the cymbal. WOW! Of all the "Kid playing with band videos." Alex is the best! 😲
alex is wearing ear plugs and not in ear monitors, making it really hard to hear on a stage like that, hes there to help guide him through the song so he doesnt fall off the rails.
2jazzyjeffer BOTH OF THEM TOGETHER SOUNDED SPECTACULAR... ALEX, AT ONLY 10 YEARS OLD, IS UNBELIEVABLE. A TRULY STICK OF DYNAMITE BEHIND THE SKINS. THIS YOUNG MAN IS DEFINETLY GOING PLACES!!!😁😊😎
Totally blown away at what you were doing at 10! You are the baddest drummer I have ever seen and to see you rocking those drums live on stage with the band was just freaking nothing but bad ass!
I’ve watched this over and over. It’s a must watch! My heart is smiling fir this little guy! Excellent performance by Alex! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🤘🔥 It’s like Jackyl who. It’s his is all ALEX!
I have been a great fan of Jackyl since I first heard them, however, I am even more of a fan now knowing that the opportunity to allow a 10 year old to play with them is just AWESOME! Keep Rock and Roll alive for future Generations! Triple thumbs up!!!!👍👍👍🦅
Damn brother that kid is good real good he's going to be famous someday I'll bet brother I still listen to your music to this day still enjoy it jackal you guys rock
That was awesome....... some people practice for months, even years to get good, at 10 he simply oozed that natural talent many dream of. Brilliant timing, fantastic energy..... well done Alex.....
GOD DAMN WTF! this kid is bad assssssssss hes does it all twirling the stick tossing it standing as hes playing and my favorite he jumps in the air and smashes the symbols on the way down BRAVO SIR BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Every time that kid goes airborne, I do too! I'm glad there's still some parents who don't use video games to babysit their kids and actually take an interest in them❣
Seeing a 10 year old put forth the energy and talent this boy does makes me proud for his parents. He has definitely got tons of potential and isnt wasting any. Great job Alex!
Dayum ALEX!!! I got tired just watchin’ you Rock it Out on those drums!! Great job!! How does it feel to have been crowned “THE FUTURE OF ROCK n ROLL” at just 10 years old!! Good for you!! I’ll bet you had a great time jammin with the one and Only JACKYL !!! ♥️
