Tommy Aldridge, one of the most iconic drummers of all time, was the only drummer who got a standing ovation during the Remo Drummer Night in Manchester. Performing Whitesnake's 'Crying in the Rain', the God-like Rock drummer from also Pat Travers, Ozzy Osbourne and Gary Moore was a 6-minute whirlwind of boosting energy taking literally everybody in the room to Jetstream levels. The ones who were there will never forget this moment: a six-minute demonstration of how Rock drumming must be played. Prepare to be stunned!

Tommy is a master at controlled power. He plays with so much energy and strength, but with precision, and never goes off the rails. This is a really amazing skill in drumming.

@lorenpaulger3807 2 года назад

One of my Favorite drummers since Pat Travers Band. In Seattle I saw him come off stage behind David Coverdale at the end of a show and Coverdale reached down and flung a fans 6 inch high heel shoe back out into the crowd without looking and nailed Tommy right in the face. Glad he didn’t lose an eye.

THAT WAS FKN HARD ASS !!!!! Tommy Aldridge has been with Whitesnake 30 years. I've known him since 8th grade Band. He played Drums. We were together 2 years, 'B' Band, 76and 78. We just weren't good enuff for the 'A' Band. The teacher didn't see an initiative conforming to his commands. We, Tommy, and others enjoyed 8th and 9th grade 420 bout an hour earlier. That's just how they did it!!! Tommy was a warm and charismatic kinda guy. Stayed to himself, we were party friends, so of course, we talked !!! HAHAHA !!!!! Cheers Tommy, I've loved your music since I found David Coverdale - - - SURPRIZE !!! :D signed - WOODY

Tommy is a great drummer, and a really nice guy. He hits so hard, that when I was helping set up his kit, we had to wire the floor toms to the floor with bailing wire so they wouldn’t fly away. Definitely hits HARDER than anyone I’ve met, and yet gets great tone out out of the kit. Amazing. Told great Ozzy stories, too.

Take a good look people.... sadly, incredible musical talent like this is going away right before our eyes each day. Today, music “hero’s” are being defined by prime time network TV shows where people sing to backing tracks and wear Disney-style costumes in front of a panel of judges, who then spoon feed the crap music to you, the media, and ITunes telling you what super stars they are. Eddie Van Halen is gone. We need to bring back the glory days in order to save music like this and let the NEXT Tommy Aldridge out there get his or her shot.
