I have to disagree on the A tier. While Justin definitely had chops, he wasn't playing very clean or in time. He sounded okay until close to the end, when started rushing a lot on those fills. Bruno Mars was better imo because he was playing way more clean and in the pocket. He had some fire chops too, I was actually blown away.

I agree Justin was not clean his time was extremely inconsistent, and he accidentally hit cymbals on his fills. It was an overall 5-6/10.

On the other hand, I prefer Justin's technicality over Bruno's clean playing, but that could be because of my bias towards Metal drumming, and Justin's is a lot closer in that regard.

@ErazoYTOfficial I understand it’s your opinion but Justin was speeding up his fills and timing is numero uno for drummers. Also he was quite sloppy in his playing. Maybe if he was keeping his hi hat going like quest love he would be more in time. And he used the same old basic file Bonham triplets. So again I say 5-6/10. I do respect your opinion though.

Despite drumming on air drums with a recording, Rowan Atkinson looks like he actually took the time to understand basic drumming and practiced. Also, his timing is spot on considering it’s a pre-recorded track. Despite playing with a recording, he’s actually pretty darn close to it. He could actually reasonably take his routine into a real drum set and somewhat replicate it. I’d like to see Will Ferrell, Nick Cannon, or any of the others do that.

@Rex R Nah as a drummer of over a decade i disagree with you 100%. Go to :56 for Bruno Mars' solo and listen carefully. Clean linear fill (swapping the sticking pattern too!) followed by a quick polyrhythm beat all in great timing. That is pretty damn impressive for a guy that tours year round singing and dancing lol Bruno Mars also has an actual background playing bass, guitar, and drums.

Bruno Mars is obviously above Biebs here. I wouldn't have put them in the same tier. Mars looked very close to being a professional drummer. He sounded like one, but visually his movements could have been more fluid and energy-efficient. Biebs on the other hand had a fair bit of obvious slop and isn't anything like being "locked in." Bonham-style triplets were a standout, but sound harder to play than they actually are. Think of playing singles, but each limb only needs to play at 2/3rds speed because you're adding a foot. Bass drum notes make linear fills sound faster in general while actually giving your hands a rest.

He’s a better drummer than he is a comedian. I saw his standup on Netflix and the jokes just weren’t there. I didn’t really like em at all. It was like he was telling the setup of the joke without the punchline. But still, his drumming wasn’t bad at all. I like the fact that he basically had all these kits out in front of the stage, highlighting the history of the drum set in music. That’s the only part I liked about it.

You gotta be kidding with the biebs, he was a bit better than I expected but Bruno was legit 10x better. On the groove, clean playing, tasty fills (the linear at 0:57 alone dumps on everything Bieber did). I wouldn't bat an eye if Bruno played a full set on drums, he'd look totally in place. Bieber is a standard 1 year drummer who just learned linear triplet fills.

Even so that was quite good. He looked a bit stiff but I wouldn't be surprised if he's actually a fairly competent drummer by amateur standards, most professional musicians learn multiple instruments just to be well-rounded and he could obviously afford some lessons (with the connections to get an excellent teacher). Same with Bruno Mars, just because these guys aren't known for their drumming doesn't mean there hasn't been effort put into developing it in the background.

The Mr Bean one was great. That's how i learn songs. With differnt techniques then my playing. I sit behind my kit and listen over and over and air drum it for the muscle memory then when i get the air drum pattern correct I apply it to the kit and add more power behind the hits for them to register on the drums. I live in an apartment and use an electrical drum kit to learn and practice. Electric drums take little pressure to activate the sound so air to electric and continue to add pressure until it's me just jamming with track. Takes hours to perfect. But that's my technique.

I’ve instructed people who were unable to play even a single stroke roll to learn it. Others have had the coordination to use all four appendages independently, albeit, very slowly, but it revealed their potential to advance. Personally, I think anyone with the required coordination can perform a great drum solo, but that doesn’t qualify them as good drummers. The true test is how they perform with other musicians. Getting into a groove, playing consistent time and having the ability to use rudiments to enhance the music is the foundation for a good drummer. There are some great jazz and progressive drummers who amaze me. After seeing almost all of my drumming idols, the only drummer that left me in awe was Buddy Rich. I was fortunate to sit maybe 10 feet from him as he and his band performed two shows at a club in West Des Moines around 1978-79. Previous to that, I was never impressed by him as he always seemed like a jerk on TV, tarnishing his performance. He was a true jerk in person, but seeing him perform in person, I could ignore his rudeness towards the audience. He truly was the greatest.

So, I bombed an audition, but not in the way you might think. There were three of us auditioning for a timpani spot but the university only had 1 set of timpani for practicing (the others were off limits until concerts). So each of us had to reserve practice room time. Lo and behold, one of the other auditioners spent longer than her reserved time allowed. All three of us had back to back reservations each day before the audition. So, I had only 10 minutes to practice before my time was up (I didn't want to be the douche and cut in to another reserved time slot). Now, comes audition day. The 1st guy goes in, comes out and seems to have done well. Then the 2nd (the girl who took too long) and me I went last. The audition piece was mixed meter, and I don't have the tenor-like chops to rip around 5 timpani in a 160 BPM audition piece on the spot. Come to find out she got the spot. But my professor (who was judging the auditions) told me that she only got it because she was better at switching timpani. I was near perfect at counting the mixed meters, just not at crossing over and such. Well, turns out even though she got the spot, she nearly had anxiety every rehearsal (since percussion ensemble was held afterwards) because of not counting the mixed meters right. Especially when she asked for pointers on how to count better. All I could do is shrug.

Pretty funny how many celebrities play drums as a hobby. I love finding out what famous people do as a hobby like some skateboard or ride motorcycles ect

I know he's technically not a celebrity (he's a muppet, I know), but why didn't you include something from Animal? 😉 Or was/is Animal's muppeteer actually a drummer?

Ronnie Verrell did most of the drumming for Animal until he passed away in 2002. Roy Burns did the drumming for the Animal vs Buddy Rich drum battle on the Old Muppet Show.

Apparently nick cannon did learn how to play snare and did play some of the drumming in the movie but the close ups were a stunt double

Hey Eric on the "Drumline" stuff I think it was the snare coach at Atlanta Drum Academy who played the snare stuff. I don't know if it was Mr. Riles or not, but if it isn't he knows who it is. The dude actually played on the Morris Brown Drumline in the real world. Fun fact Mr. Riles sons can play all the first Drumline stuff.

i cant believe you put justin over bruno. bruno was so incredibly clean with it, he looked smooth and relaxed and you could really feel the groove. justin looked kinda stressed and very stiff, and i dont think he played particularly clean and i couldnt feel any groove. even tho questlove was holding back i got the vibes from his playing. justin is more like c tier
