How do you do it

[@dreadnaughtswake]

Hearing Crazy Train played on a slapaphone is something I didn’t think I needed to hear today. Keep up the good work!

[@Juuzo]

not if you didn't know of the Blue Man Group

[@yrgarddfechan]

That song is from trolls world tour

[@sweetgherkinz]

@@yrgarddfechan more like in trolls world tour

[@idk_why_i_exist]

He forgot the AI AI AI

[@kishascape]

His sticking was terrific. He didn’t hit slappers together once. Also the sound off that thing is really cool. Like an analog synth,

[@JoePorterPercussion]

Feeling ready for some Whack-A-Mole games after practicing Crazy Train 🤣

You would crush at it

Your dexterity is amazing

I can play part of crazy train on my alto sax

@@infinitecarz nice bro, I can play a part on my piano

[@MitchellC564]

we need a cover of it on the slapaphone

[@Flavio_Mark]

I 100% support more Rush covers. That YYZ intro was amazing ❤

[@fyrecracker7201]

Rush is the best

[@CodeBreaker0X5]

He even had to play the more complicated song that Rush had at that which was Awesome... would definitely like to see Limelight or The Trees

[@iwishic0uldw1n24]

Just remember that it's morse code for Y, Y, then Z and you can get the phrasing down.

As being a 13 year old percussionist, you inspire me so much to get better and better😁

[@alextheukrainianguy]

I am a 13 y o keyboard player, and he still inspires me lol

[@SnacksDeCarGuy]

he got me back into Bass Guitar

Awesome to hear that! All the best to your musical journey!!

Now, this isn't art: THIS IS MAGIC! I specially enjoyed Smells Like Teen Spirit and YYZ. Breathtaking.

That Crazy Train cover on the slapophone was amazing!

[@infinitetgaming]

I love how YYZ sounds like it came out of Final Fantasy 7. I'd love a full version, but I'd also love more Rush songs too.

[@jedrzejsiata98]

1:07-1:34 I really love a hammer dulcimer part, Misirlou from Pulp Fiction.😁

[@Zeagods-CyberShadow]

It gives it a more Egyptian like the original

[@jedrzejsiata98]

Fun fact: "Misirlou" is a folk song from the Eastern Mediterranean region.🙂

[@Chris-ln3xe]

No.... It's Pump It by the Black Eyed Peas....

[@Big_Wing]

You need to do a full cover on crazy train, that sounded fantastic

[@justamushroomgirl3613]

That would be epic.

[@niko4613]

Ong

[@nathanarsenault2864]

[@funki4896]

In my German school we had a "slap-a-phone" but it was called Klo-rohr-phon which means "loo-tube-phone" 😁

[@FULLY_AUTOMATIC]

If you think we need a full version of crazy train 👇

[@xzavierobispo989]

It's very impressive that he's able to play such a wide variety of percussion instruments from all around the world

[@samalex9080]

The main riff of Crazy Train sounds like an Ibiza club night remix. Damn, this whole thing is so good. Again.

[@beansinacan500]

Joe went God mode on the slapaphone!

[@elicarter1356]

And also the drum kit considering YYZ is extrmelyyyyy hard to play. Primus even had a hard time playing it and les clay pool is the best bassets of all time

[@breadcalled4173]

I think an interesting song choice would be raining blood by slayer. The intro does contain a lot of strange and cool musical instruments

[@greenturtle2046]

This guy is just the chad of instruments

[@McHeisenburger]

That Crazy Train slapophone bit was absolutely incredible holy wow

[@sketch-mer6195]

Seeing my instrument, the 17/16 hammered dulcimer, being showed more than when I started picking it up makes me so happy and yearn to learn how to play my instrument again. Thank you so much!!!!

[@Matthew-pn1qu]

You should do Rush songs on different instruments. There are some famous percussion parts in songs like Xanadu and Closer to the Heart, and I think you could also make some interesting interpretations of their other songs with other percussion instruments. Also, you should play La Villa Strangiato on drums. Love your channel btw -- percussion is underrated!

[@aetheralmeowstic2392]

_Surf Rock_ on a hammered dulcimer sounds like music from a desert area in a game.

[@BonesWasHere]

Gotta love this guy for including some Rush songs in his videos. Great band, great KZbinr.

[@moonlightdreamer4957]

What I like most about these videos is the introduction to instruments I’ve never heard of.

[@mike1024.]

The majority of my exposure to these songs was music rhythm games, yet somehow I actually recognized all of them. Your rendition of crazy train was especially good!

[@fernandocrespin7201]

YYZ was sick, one of the first Rush songs I learned how to play on drums 🥁

[@kishascape]

Lamest track on this video.

Joe: "Slapaphone!" **shreds**

[@xavierwedel4691]

Fun fact: Rush is a Canadian band (if some people didn't know), and for the same people who didn't know, YYZ is the IATA airport identification code of Toronto Pearson Intl. Airport, near Rush's hometown. It also happens to be the largest Airport in Canada. The band was introduced to the rhythm of ths song as Rush's guitarist Alex Lifeson flew them into the airport, hence thd reason they named it.

[@liampeters3207]

That Crazy Train Rendition was amazing. Takes me back to the first time I saw a Blue man Group video where they played it

[@charlieisaway]

loved this, especially YYZ! in the next video like this one, can you include any song from Death? it would be very cool!

[@Retrotude]

Funnily enough my introduction to Crazy Train was the skit on a Blue Man Group concert where they tried to play a cover on their PVC instruments only to be interrupted by the "AY, AY, AY" voice and an unexpectedly long-lasting vibraslap.

[@eisenbahnerharthausen]

Bro that crazy train solo on slapaphone sounded sick 🔥🔥🔥 Keep up your good work 💪🏼

[@OS08]

Wish there was a full version of crazy train on slapaphone by this guy

[@ILI.D.]

He really got in the zone on the first one

[@deanospimoniful]

Never stop rocking, Joe.

[@XSpImmaLion]

Very awesome! Love the adaptations!

[@minecraftfarcenim6853]

Crazy train on the slapophone reminds me of that meme with the guy who has 2 rolls of wrapping paper

[@josiahadorno6891]

Bruh the amount of practice, time and, patience this dude has man

[@Nick7842]

"Crazy Train" on the slapaphone sounds like the beginning of a badass techno/trance song! \m/
