Drummers: How good were you at age 12?

Post by dtatusko »

This is a clip of Tony Royster Jr. at age 12. Umm... 'Nuff said. Nothing beats nature and a lot of practice on compound cans to create drumming genius.

and yes...he got much better as he got older...!

Here is is a little older and denonstrates spped that makes DCI look slow and slows down even the great Buddy Rich a bit...

I've had that on my 'puter for a couple years now. I love the beat he plays near the end of the solo using the 2 splashes and the 6" bell. That is a GROOVE.
Dood...
