This is one of my favorite songs that was nice to jam to today. Its riffs are powerful, aggressive and never get old. The two hard breakdowns in this tune are up there with my top drum parts of all time.
I finally played this on a set today for the first time in at least 15 years. It's crazy to think that, but after an hour and sweating through my shirt, here's what I chose to share. If I played it for another hour, it'd be sharper, but the focus was on having fun in flashback mode.
I was a bit tempted to improv over Chad Sexton's parts, but it felt more natural to play most of the stock parts since they work so well.
311 is one of my favorite bands. They've been around for a long time, but I'm most fond of their earlier material. I saw them live once and am long overdue to see them again.
I chose to try using a YouTube link over loading the video onto Dtube directly, in hopes that the link will outlast the typical shorter span my drums videos remain hosted on Dtube's site.
To hear all of the drums properly, headphones or speakers with good bass are recommended.
Enjoy the show and please let me know that you were here.
(By the way, my left eye is bruised from a collision at home plate when I tagged out a runner at home this week. It was a nice elbow to the face, but I held on to the ball to stop the run.)
