[Win A Rabbit]

seen it. about 100 times.

[eirlisdrumer]

o god, that makes me wanna quit life, but wow yah hes definatly good

[Elmo McCheese]

Pretty old video, and disheartening at that.

[Maggot Dream]

Why do people always get discouraged by these videos? They're so pointless. I mean, the kid's good, but he'll probably never value what he has and what he does.

[ThE_VANDAL]

that's it. I'm giving up :lol:

[FockerTheLopper]

That was nice. I like seeing young talent... Alot more talented then me, if he continues he'll be alot better then Vinnie when hes Vinnies age.

[sLarkin20]

LMFAO his china cymbal almost took him out when he hit it, that thing is 4 times bigger then his head

[Drummer Freak 911]

that was a wonderful jaw dropping experience

[Drummer Freak 911]

LMFAO his china cymbal almost took him out when he hit it, that thing is 4 times bigger then his head

most china cymbals are bigger then an average person head -.-

[sLarkin20]

did you miss the part where i said fOUR tIMEZ
hes got himself a lil head even for a 10 year old!
i bet he ends up in a death metal band with that playing : (

[dbl_bass_drmr_Jirvy]

holy cow.................

I wish I can say theres something fishy about the vid... but I cant find anything....

darn... too good... discouraged... *does rudiments*

[sweet_nothings]

Aww he's cute.

Look at him go, with his little head bopping and stuff. Awwww.

[Swiftay]

how the hell do they do that anyway? seriously, what do you learn...to be able to do that? bah.

[Seafroggys]

is this Tony Royster?

subconsciously I still think I'm on dial-up. I never downloaded mp3s or watched videos, ever. Still don't. I should start doing that do.

Though I wonder if i should even watch this.

[Vannaroth]

Its not Tony Royster.

Ive said it before, in my opinion this drummer kid is the best out of the whole drummer kid collective.

[White Riot!]

Cheungman's back!

it's that Mike Portnoy plagiarizing kid, whose father whored him around the internet. I think we've had a thread about him like over a year ago. he's just one of those speed kids with mediocre control and even less potential to groove.

i dont know if that was supposed to be funny but it made me laugh
i bet if you dropped a bass/snare/hi-hat combo in front of him he wouldnt know what the **** to do with it

That videos fake. I can hear him playing the ride when he's quite clearly on the hats. It even looks fake and jumpy

[keaton_86]

That was one of the most boring solo's ive ever seen. Where was the groove?

[pitchfork]

looks a bit like you phil :p

in my pants, thats where.

Heh.

youtube sometimes delays sound

[Drum Phil]

Perhaps but the snare was in sync, as was the crash (note crash, not ride) hit straight after i heard the ride.

[theflame85]

that kids actually 15 in that video. theres another one out of him when he was 16.

He's a member on the mikeportnoy forums. I like read up on him, his dad posts his videos on the net and films him and stuff, hes like one of those parents that pushes his kids big time.

[mamcdonald]

He's probably been drumming since he was a fetus.

[FockerTheLopper]

That was one of the most boring solo's ive ever seen. Where was the groove?
The kid is 10 for crying out loud.

People on this board can be so abrasive. You want a non famous 10 year old kid on the internet who has more chops then alot of people here to also have alot of groove(and he does some grooves that sounded alright). That kids time was also very good which noone said anything about.

[drumbum562]

I agree with Focker, I mean how many of us can say that we were doing that at age 10, the point is the kid has skills and potential to be great

[trysthedrummer]

Yeah, who cares about the groove. He's well young and look what he can do. :eek:


I'm depressed. But this makes me try harder anyway! All those kids have parents who push them like that. If we would have started very early on in life we would be awesome except we haven't so were just going to have to live with it. :(

[Jezen]

He's not 10, he's 15 (in that video). Don't be disheartened, as he is pretty crap and he actually got worse too.

EDIT: I didn't see theflame85's post above. He is correct.

[FockerTheLopper]

He's not 10, he's 15 (in that video). Don't be disheartened, as he is pretty crap and he actually got worse too.
He looks like hes 10!

[Jezen]

Yeah I'll admit he looks tiny.

[trysthedrummer]

He's the same age as you Jez! :eek:

[Jezen]

I believe he's 16 or 17 now.

[trysthedrummer]

Hell, he must be teeny still. Same age as me then :upset:

[Vannaroth]

God I'm so sick of some of the people on here. They just cant accept that some people are ****ing good at drums. Its always ''Guys, better call the groove bregade, we have an absence of groove in sector 3!!!'' or ''I bet he cant read music'' or '' yeah well i bet he cant paradiddle for ****" how do we know? We dont, thats how. quit making excuses and accept that the kid is good. Nobody can ever be happy for anyone around here. the guys 15 for gods sake.

[Pauly]

I wonder if he day dreams about riding a bike when his dads making him practice rudiments.

[ThugsRook]

how the hell do they do that anyway? seriously, what do you learn...to be able to do that? bah.
that my friend is stick control with the ability to be able to drop notes, and very good intonation :thumb:


he slurs alot of his playing, very Danny Carey of him :lol:
(makes it difficult to figure out what hes actually playing)


he's pretty good, but there is more to drumming then just being good. (like songwriting!)


:chug:

I see why you would want to make excuses for the 12 yr old Royter vid, but this kid just plain and simple isn't that good. Have you seen his latest video with his new yellow kit? He actually got worse.
Nobody that is interested in drumming gets worse after a year. His dad bought 3 video cameras and a new drumkit, some new cymbals, and some new mics just to whore the kids ability (or lack thereof).

It would be funny if the father stopped pushing.

[Vannaroth]

Cant say I have seen it. got a link?

[Yawnyd]

Hey at one point he plays almost exactly like the intro to '6:00' by Dream Theater! That made me smile.

You guys, some of you are just sick. This kid is pretty damn good, and if he progresses like this he will be amazing at some point.

'I bet he can't *insert random skill here*'

Come on! That's just too weak. Be happy for the kid!

If you want to be satisfied, I have a motion that will stroke all you egos out there, that you can use without bashing people who have talent:

'Everyone can get there, with practice. Talent gets you there faster.'

I still think some of us are better drummers than others will ever be, but it's about your fun exprience with the instrument.

He's pretty good in this video, which probably means he's good overall. Quit making up excuses and scenarios. Go practice if you're spiteful!:thumb:

[rohbit]

This forum suffers from a Classic case of inferiority complex.

[jerrif]

I wonder if he day dreams about riding a bike when his dads making him practice rudiments.

lol I wish my parents pushed me like that... maybe then I'd be good :upset:

[sLarkin20]

I wonder if he day dreams about riding a bike when his dads making him practice rudiments.

LOL

but seriously the size of his head pisses me off

[trysthedrummer]

I haven't seen this vid either. The one with the yellow kit.

[MNdrummer21]

if he continues he'll be alot better then Vinnie when hes Vinnies age.

LAWLZ. I hope you werent serious when you said that Focker. Anyway, this guy post on Drummerworld and Pearl Drummers Forum and hes like 16 or 17 now and to be honest, I think he is actually worse than in this video.

[aznriceball]

i like these vids. of course these kids are gonna be more on the chops side than of grooves..they're kids -___-;

[Maggot Dream]

You guys, some of you are just sick. This kid is pretty damn good, and if he progresses like this he will be amazing at some point.

Unfortunately, playing exactly what another drummer plays doesn't make you good. When he can create a part as memorable as the one in 6:00, he'll deserve more credit.

And also, it's already been stated that he basically hasn't progressed at all. If you get so full of yourself to the point that you don't improve, I cannot respect you as a drummer.

[White]

ya, idn;'t like it all that much lol

[Coma Divine]

Anyone have a link to the yellow kit vid?

[Coma Divine]

Lol I found this video in the process, wow:

[Cheungman]

Cheungman's back!

at least one person noticed and cared...:p

[sLarkin20]

Lol I found this video in the process, wow:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=1MIN5IcdHfw&search=yellow%20drum%20kit

ive got this crazy feeling that he didnt just turn his camera on, sit down one day, and "improv" that

[drummer_mp3]

I dunno what is wrong with the video but I think the kid has like no feel. He goes from one rythm to the other without any transition. It's like listening to old people talk, it's so incoherent.

[Bonham#1!]

Damn hes good. Looks like an idiot though, even if it was a bad video quality and hes 10. Left handed to if nobody has pointed this out yet.

[FockerTheLopper]

LAWLZ. I hope you werent serious when you said that Focker. Anyway, this guy post on Drummerworld and Pearl Drummers Forum and hes like 16 or 17 now and to be honest, I think he is actually worse than in this video.
It was before I read he was 15 and he got worse then what he was a year ago.

[rohbit]

I actually liked that solo. It was musical.
