That's probably the idea. Who knows who's behind the mask, right? Also, he's gone out of his way to conceal any recognizable tattoos, piercings that may reveal his identity. Simply genius

You remember me of a drummer I played a long time ago! He was so powerful, groovy and forward playing what made it impossible not to start to sweat just by listening and watching him. And he was an extremely high professional drummer, very flexible and very creative. He had the same shape as you and he also was „dancing“ while he was drumming! He was the best drummer I have ever worked with. This is 30 years ago. But we are still young. So - who knows? It is fantastic to see that this highly energetic way of drumming is still alive.

Being a drummer, a metal head and growing up in the 80s, im happy to admit these are the bands that inspired, i learnt to play the drums at 8, my uncle was a jazz drummer and my first song i learnt on the drums was elvis, jail house rock. I used to be called weird as a teen as i liked and played all genres of music , its what made me what i am today from elvis to metallica.

I've only been drumming for like 3 months (never too old to relive your childhood lol). There's so many talented technical drummers out there .. but you're such a great example of what "groove" is.
