Re: HODers VIDEOS TOPIC - Your own drum videos here

First a little rant. With the wealth of talent here at HOD, why are not more performance videos being posted? The few that are here are pretty impressive. I understand that there wasn’t any real playing for the past year. But…how about before then? I mean c’mon…I found PLENTY of really good stuff by the folks here from earlier times. Okay…so I’m going to try to rectify that as best I can.
I’m not going to post any of videos of my playing because:
1) I don’t have any video equipment, nor do I have any desire to get any
2) At this point I’m pretty much a “paddist”. To be honest, I’m not planning on playing out again until maybe 2022. Besides…NOBODY wants to see/hear me play Wrist Twisters, Gaddiments, Delecluse, Pratt or Wilcoxon on a practice pad. Even I don’t want to see/hear it (even though I do record the stuff on my phone so I can hear how I’m doing…thankfully there’s a delete button).
With all due respect to guys like Kaide and Juan who do terrific covers and demos, I’m only going to post performance videos because I feel that’s where the real “magic” is…playing with other musicians live.
First up is Steve with Altered at the Baked Potato. This is one of my favorite cuts by them. So well-rehearsed while still keeping it fresh. Steve’s playing is awesome throughout. He floors me at 3:47. How TONY can you get!!!
Enjoy…more to come as I get the time (unless you folks beat me to it).
