Never seen Torpey get down like this. I now understand why he was in a "super group" with Sheehan & Gilbert. I wasn't aware he was such a badass, but should have realized considering the company. RIP brother. Rock on!🤙

I am a 52 year old drummer, i never even sat behind a kit until I 42 and even then it was very random. I played a little bit for a year at a church and got my legs but I didn’t play in a real band until 2 years ago. Why did I say all of this? I will probably never play like this but I can hear and feel you’re passion and that you’re having fun. It’s the having fun part that keeps me going.

62 years old, playing since I was 12 but, as my username says, wore out drummer. The 'ol knees and hips aren't quite as useful as they once were and honestly, it's a chore to get up and put pants on. However, thanks to the internet, I get to enjoy watching and listening to drummers from around the world and this right here, is why I do. Passion, power, stamina, ability, all rolled up into one. RIP, sir. 🤘☹

You don't see much old school drumming on KZbin anymore. It's mostly all 32nd notes on bass drum & 1 handed 16th note rolls which are amazing but it only seems to be useful in music I can't stand to listen to for more than 5 seconds.

That was dope! I find drum solos can get pretty boring after a few minutes. I got the adhd. But I sat through the entire set and loved it. I know he uses the double kick pedal on the single bass drum ,but it's so good because he's using it as a tool in the tool box, but hes using the hihat then moves to the kick as to not over play the double kick. Don't get me wrong double bass is awesome but I find in a solo it gets overused, there's not any single bass drum skills portrayed, with the hihat keeping the time. U know that sound John Bonham was famous for. The single bass has been left behind with the birth of the double kick pedal for under $200. Thats why this is so good in my opinion which isn't worth shit but just throwing it out there .
