I always love watching you play boet..Always notice the new angles and my lord the energy..Bro you are one of the best out there..and I would gladly recruit you as the drummer for my band or session work..hands down..Amaboeti Alex von Conway is a LEGEND
Man, it’s good to see you back at it! I like the very cool MTV shirt! Awesome drumming on this Ace Frehley gem of a song! Video production and sound quality are great!
I’ve never heard this Ace Frehley song before, it was a fantastic tune! You were grooving super tightly in the pocket, and your fills were phenomenal as always! Outstanding cover!
Great drumming on this, Mike! Your covers are always super impressive, and you obviously have a lot of fun doing them! Great watch, bro! Keep it up! That solo was on point
You always play with so much energy and very precise my Big Brother Mike!! You are an awesome interpretation for us Drummers!! Love and respect Kyle!! 😊🥁🇵🇭
First time hearing this one! I like it 🎼🤘. Wicked drumming, lovin that solo section too. This sounds awesome Mike, had my head bouncin thew whole time. 😎👍🤜🤛🍻
Mike!! That was freaking amazing man! I absolutely loved that mini drum solo part, totally rocked! ......and OMG Anton Fig was the original drummer!?! Never would've guessed that. Wow. Again, great great playing my friend.
Nice!! Mike - as always, you picked another cool tune. Ace came up with some cool stuff back in the day. And this is a lot of fun. And once again..... you CRUSHED it!! Man... what a drummer. So much fun watching you, and listening to you make music. Because that's what you do - make music. You don't just hit the skins, and crash the cymbals. You make great music! Love this, Bro. Keep on bringing us the good stuff. You are an inspiration. Side Note: You know I love me some Toms!! You burned em' up in this one Mike ! Man... soo good! Cool shirt too.
Thank you Jimmy! As always, your comments are a thrill to read... Man, I do appreciate the heck out of you and your terrific support! So nice of you... I hope you have a great week, and keep rockin for sure! 🙏🙏💛💛🤘🤘💥💥
Amazing cover Mike! Awesome tom groove! Nice tom rolls 1:55 and what a great drum solo! You blew me away man!🤘🤘🤘🤘Little time ago 65drums made a video about the best eKits I missed yours!!! The most beautiful eKit I've ever seen!🤘🤘🤘
Thank you so much Tobi! I'm glad you like it -- and your great comments sure make me feel awesome, especially coming from a prodigy like yourself. Rock on my dude! 🙏🙏💛💛
I did'n know that song ...... but your drumming and the sound are very awesome as ever Mike .... the reverse tom fills are outstanding .... great job my friend .... it was entertaining on top .... I enjoy it a lot 🔥🔥👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I never heard this song before , as always you nailed this tune , excellent performance , you are always at the top !!! incredible fills at 2 minute you are killer brother !!!
what a great cover Mike!! Sounds awesome, what a drumming, man!!! perfect sound, perfect timing, perfrect groove! You are a master, bro!!. I absolutely loved this one!! Big hugs
Have you ever made a bad drum cover?! Like seriously, one where you were like, meh, it didn't turn out the way you had hoped. This one was slammin'! Certainly woke me up while at work...
Thanks so much Bryan! Oh yeah, there are a lot of covers that are meh... it's why I don't post often enough, lol! Truly appreciate your awesome support, my man. 🙏🙏💛💛
My favorite track from Ace! Nice job on this absolute classic! Love the fills in this tune. I believe Aton Fig of the David Letterman show did the session on drums for this album. 2:15 Bro 🔥🔥🔥! Hell yes rock the F out! 🤘🤘🤘
Thanks so much Joey! Yes, Anton Fig was on the drums... he really kicked ass on this whole album. I sure appreciate your great comments & support my bro!🙏💛🤘🤘
Yeah, Ace was a real rocker. I was actually surprised that his solo album was so much better than the others in 1978. Thanks for checking it out Steve!🙏💛🤘
Nice job Mike! The drum break is definitely the coolest part haha!! But the tshirt just might be as cool as the break 😂😂. thanks for another great vid 🙌🔥
So behind on my comments but this got a thumbs up the SECOND I saw you did it. Admittedly, I moved straight to 1:59 through 2:20 🤣🤣🤣🤣 You straight KILLED this Mike
I totally dig the minimalist look of your covers (although your kit is anything but minimalist!) 🤣 What I am referring to is the basic black, silver and white theme with just a touch of skin tones accentuated by a few carefully placed white lights. Oh yeah, and the B&W MTV shirt is a nice touch as well (along with your fine playing, which if I keep mentioning, will start to sound redundant.) GREAT JOB MIKE! 🤘
Thanks so much Sean! I'm glad you dig it... the video look is a work in progress which is constantly evolving. Thank you for the awesome comments brother, I sure appreciate it!🙏💛🤘
Love this song Mike. Your drumming is so spot on here, and you just crushed it on those cool fills. Very impressive brother. Ace’s solo album was by far my favorite out of the four of them. I remember putting my poor parents in the poor house trying to keep up with all their releases at that time period 😂😂 Thanks for sharing your amazing skills. Keep rockin’ my friend. 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Thanks a ton Rob! Yeah, I had the Ace and Peter solo albums (thanks to my parents too), but I heard some of the other 2 and def thought Ace's was the best. Anton Fig's drums are terrific on the whole album and Eddie Kramer produced it, and Ace was in his rockin prime. It all went downhill from there, lol! 😃 Hope you have a great week, my bro. 🙏🙏💛💛
@@MikeConwayDrums yes indeed Anton is a beast. Ace’s record is the best of the four for sure. Something just made me think of the Tom Snyder interview where Ace was feeling really good 😂😂😂. Gene wasn’t too happy, and that was probably the straw that broke the camel’s back. Thx again brother and enjoy the rest of your week. 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Good afternoon, my dear friend. Absolutely Nice exchange. Done well. Keep it up. Undoubtedly thumbs up. Big thank you. I wish you every success! With love and respect, musician Yuriy Saliy.
First of all my apologizes...I have not miss 1 ...its 2 uploads and again no notification 🤬🤬AFs solo album is a killer exactly like your cover 💪💪theres no easy song to play at that album...well Fractured mirror is simple but the other needs some practice 👍🙂🙂the fills in this one is really strange and needs a proffessional drummer to have them sound like they should...and thats exactly whats going on here 😃😃👌👌fantastic work brother on this hard song I wish you a great weekend 🤘🥁❤️👍🙏🏻😃
Thank you so much for such kind words Bjarne! Yes, Anton Fig is a beast on this whole album... Ace and Eddie Kramer really put together quite a crew for this. I sure am glad you liked it... it always means so much when you comment on my videos. You have The Hottest Channel In The Land... I'm very grateful for your incredible support! Have a great weekend my friend! 🙏🙏💛💛🤘🤘
Mi hermano... i haven't heard the original of this one... but i gotta tell you, this is aweeeesoooome! That fillfest you did is incomplete, imo... it needs a fullbaronetomoutoftime fill! 😂😂😂😂 hahahahaha! 5 0 2!
AWESOME job sir, keep them coming! I wonder how Kiss would have been different if Anton Fig would have replaced Peter? I think he did okay with the Letterman Show and his continued work with Ace on solo albums and other projects though.
Hi dear brother this is the song im working with and honestly I study the way you play it because youre doing it fantastic ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🙂im stocked at the snare...hat bassdrum part the moment theres 3 bassdrum hits in a row works 2 of 10 for me 🤬😂also this fill tom tom bass snare in that speed cause me headache 🤬🤬😂but I guess its only be stubborn 🤷♂️hopefully I can upload it one day...I hate Fig...he plays like he believe he is in an progressive band 🤬🤬😂😂thanks for the lesson 😃😃🙏🏻🙏🏻⭐️⭐️
Happy New Year my good friend Bjarne! I probably didn't play this completely accurately, like I'm sure that you will! Those 3 bass drum hits in a row are hard, because the hi hat foot is playing at the same time, and so are both hands on the snare!😮 So the second bass drum hits at the same time as a left hand ghost note hit on the snare... and then the hit hat foot hits at the same time as the next right hand ghost note on the snare... very tricky. But I thought the hardest part was the tom tom bass snare... that's a crazy drum fill by Anton!😳😳😂 I looked at it as playing a flam on the tom followed immediately with the bass drum hit. It's very difficult to hit a flam on the tom that quickly after the snare hit. It definitely took me a looong time to learn that, and I still wasn't sure that's what he was doing or not!😃😃 I'm glad you like my cover, and I know you'll be able to nail it too! 🤘🤘👊👊 As always, I really appreciate your kind words and great support, and I can't wait to see your cover of this my brother!💛💛😃😃🤘🤘
@@MikeConwayDrums huge thanks for this answer and it makes me little happy you thought it was hard...you know I always feel...why is it always me that have problem 😂😂i know we all have but sometimes it feels like that 😂well I guess it gonna take some time before im ready with it 😖the irritating thing its just because of this part with 3 bass hits and like you say this crazy crazy fast fill 😂but again be proud of what youve done damn good work brother ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🥁🥁😎
I felt the same way when I was trying to play this.😂😮 I kept thinking "that can't be what he's doing" because it was too difficult. I thought there must be something else that he's doing, and maybe I'm wrong about how to play it. But that was what it kept sounding like to me when I would listen to it, so I had to start very slowly, and just work my way up to full speed. It's a drum fill that's unique and really unlike anything else. It definitely brought on a lot of doubt about myself. A lot of patience is required!@@bjarnejohansson8415
@@MikeConwayDrums i really think youve sold it because that sounds exactly 👌👌🙂nice words to hear Mike 🙏🏻yes I start at 50% speed than 75% and so 100 but I think i must go back to 75 and stay there for a while 😂your words is a huge help brother huge thanks 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙂well time for bed here now 21.30 alarm goes 04.40 tomorrow after 2 weeks of freedom 😭😭😭
Hi Mike...ooo man it sucks...sitting at the theater...just discover i play the fill at 2.10 tom tom bass snare...but when i hit the snare i also hit my left tom with my left hand 😳😳😳😭😭😭😭back to zero....wtf have i do that for 😖😖😖😖otherwise the song is ready just this fill 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Hahahaaa! Man, that kind of stuff drives me nuts.... oh well, it sounds like you're very close, so I'm sure you will nail it next time. Sometimes I can nail a song 10 times in a row in practice, but then when I turn the camera on, I mess it up again. It drives me nuts! 😳😂😳😂
@@MikeConwayDrums i have pretty good control at whole song without this damn fill...I play last day until...it just be crap..to the end i start with the snare and than bass and...just totally fucking chaos my brain couldnt do it more...but still need of more speed 😂😂🤷♂️we shall recording at friday but maybe I need more time for this ...but I have another to record not KISS 🙂🙂absolutley an muuuuch easier song 😂😂and here...I be so pi..ed off 🤬🤬and that so stupid it only make things worse 😂and yes everytime Henke says..okay go...I be so damn nervous and mess up things I never messed up before 😂😂
