The ultimate 80s rock anthem, Rock You Like a Hurricane by the Scorpions. I have tried to play it as faithful to the original as possible. Hope I got close. My favourite part is the fill on the toms at around 1:05. It was really hard to get the one-handed sweep down since it's so fast, but very satisfying when I managed it. I slowed down the original to figure out what was going on, and I think I got it right. It's snare - hi tom - mid tom - floor tom - snare - mid tom - snare - snare.
I don't have as much space in my new (temporary) apartment, so I had a bit of trouble getting a good camera angle. Hope you can figure out what's going on. Sorry it's a bit dark too. I couldn't be bothered to relocate table lamps as I sometimes did in the past.
A note on dates: I started playing drums around Christmas 2010, so I have owned a drum set for a bit more than a year and a half (as of making this video), but in that time, I didn't play drums for a long while since I also started learning guitar, which took up a lot of time (as did life, work, beer, a ton of business trips, etc, etc). So am I still a Crappy Beginner Drummer, as I described myself early on? Crappy, yes. Drummer, sort of. Beginner? I still FEEL like one, but it's open to debate, I suppose. I'm sure no expert. Anyway, I like being part of the very supportive YouTube beginner drummer community, so I'm going to keep e-hanging out with them, but I have stopped using it in titles to avoid getting spammed!
The set is a Roland TD-4KX with additional CY-8 crash cymbal (I know, I know, I live in an apartment). The kit custom. Sound is mixed on Sonar 8 Producer's Edition (EQ-ing the bass (kick) and treble (cymbals) on the original track down) via direct audio input from drum module to computer line-in plug, and then added to video from cheapo digital cameras with Sony Vegas.
The carpet...well yeah, 10 dollars and I don't have to chase the drums across the room anymore!

And, perhaps, if I sucked badly enough, as a parody too (Just kidding copyright people. that last point was a joke.)
