I cant believe the endurance. He plays for a solid hour without stopping at all most of it solo playing. He's not human

@glennp6413 Месяц назад

He's come a long way with hard work for sure.I love how he hears time.

Im a big fan of Virgil, but this is truely a big inspiration to watch...He and Vinnie are my main drumgods for a deeeeeep reason..., not only technical,but also lifestyle and love and passion for art ... .🎶🎶🎶👍👍👍 Its simple to stay mediocre...Its harder to become a leader and push your self further...Discipline and no false ego mindset and meeting the right positive people willing to help eachother...Thank you Virgil for everything!!!Cheers, Jeroen Simons, Independent,ex-Epica.

@drummerjeroensimons 7 лет назад

great man!!!!!

@Wiebe80 7 лет назад

Jeroen Simons totally agree with you! He is my main inspiration too! I participated to his masterclass last year at drumworld Ittervoort. A moment I will never forget!

@drummerjeroensimons 7 лет назад

Gaaf joh!!! Geniet ervan, ik zag m in Rotterdam, ik dacht in 2010 bij Feedback...Hij was vermoeid vh reizen, maar toch ff professioneel spelen...Thats the spirit!!! :)

@drummerjeroensimons 7 лет назад

Translation: I saw him playing in Rotterdam, I thought 2010 @ Feedback Musicstore then and he was tired of the travelling but still playing his ass off.. Thats professional playing...:)

@Wiebe80 7 лет назад

Jeroen Simons i saw hum ones at Ittervoort playing with one hand because he got injured helping a woman in a wheelchair in France. I could believe he was playing with one hand. Insane!

@leightonwatkins9486 5 лет назад

Is Origin and The End a song by Virgil or a different artist? Also is there any studio/album version of the song?

@@flooper8441 Virgil wrote it. There are a couple of recorded versions, but only on video. This one, the Modern Drummer 1997 Festival and here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zLybpkckBUo.html

@Convisis 3 года назад

@@morgenthaler I’ve got a feeling Origin and the End might have been written by David Hirschfelder, and Australian composer. This might be wrong, pretty sure David did write the final piece from the seminal 97 MD performance. I had it on VHS and literally wore the tape out I watched it so much.

@morgenthaler 3 года назад

@@Convisis Yes, I think you might be right, actually! I totally forgot about that. I can't remember if David wrote the piece all by himself, or if they co-wrote it. 🤷‍♂️

I cant believe Dream Theater didn't get him instead of Mike Mangini, their music would've progressed immensely with his composition style.

@HOLLOWOXDT1 7 лет назад

the jams he did with them ( even if snippets ) are the best . i think ( imho ) that they got intimidated by him and maybe they just don't want a drummer composer like him , i think at that time they wanted a drummer who played the drum parts like the original studio stuff with zero or minimal creative input . even marco minneman said in an interview that Virgil is too deep just to be auditionned like that . he sure would have propulsed Dream theater to new horizons maybe more into the jazz/fusion realm . his work on Moonbabies and quantum is so avantgarde

Maybe because he can run circles around their 'wacky' basic bro odd times they claim are soooo complex only they get it. Virgil has more complex songs and musicians on his albums than any of those 4 progclowns.

@andrewbintang4591 3 года назад

you can hear what drummers he'd been listening to back then by the stuff he's playing himself. you can clearly hear 70's cobham/mahavishnu, simon phillips, vinnie colaiuta, chad wackerman, gary husband, dave weckl, scott travis (racer x) & deen castronovo (saturation point!).

RAD🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿🎶🎶🎶…He didn’t get the Dream Theater gig cause he’s primarily a solo drummer who would outshine the whole band…This is why Virgil had to create his own Planet X band…It enables to play his own material & not someone else’s…
