I Played Benson's EPIC Drum Solo in Real Life

[@EMCproductions]

How many drums/cymbals/accessories do YOU have? If it's less than 150, you're doing it wrong.

[@jamesthanoob]

If you are a percussionist, everything is a drum

As the composer of the original drum solo, that was absolutely amazing!!! Luckily the Drumatron VI wasn't trying to stop you! While I'm picking knits here, because you are an amazing drummer...I kept waiting for the MIDI controller and some British rocker dude to be scared of it...again picking knits here...just amazing stuff!!! Thank you so much for this...was absolutely worth the 10 year wait for some one to crush this!!!

"360 DEGREE ASCENDING SKYCAGE??? AAAAAAAAAAA"

[@wittyson]

Yoooo thanks for making the original, that episode was awesome!

[@fo-ef8qo]

Wow an absolute legend is before us! Thanks for the amazing solo!

[@lawrenswtf]

I admire you, dude, you did an amazing job on that episode

[@xguitarist_]

First off, thanks for being a part of one of my favorite shows, and if I may ask, was it really based on Neil Peart’s solo in Frankfurt if you happen to remember? I’ve seen people mention that solo specifically that was referenced for the episode

Holy crap. If any of your neighbors saw you setting this up and then coming out of your house on that scooter they would think you were absolutely crazy. Haha

[@nrm.pgh.hc.412]

i was just about to comment "holy crap" as well. glad we're on the same wavelength lol.

[@RedDogMamaHD]

Actually, he's had a parade with Tony G down their street late at night in one of his prior videos. The neighbors are used to his shenanigans! 😁

[@craigcampbell1843]

@@RedDogMamaHD I was woken up once by a full high school marching band coming down my street at 8 or 9 in the morning. They were playing Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean. I thought it was a fun cool way to start the day and also funny that they would choose a Michael Jackson song because they were on their way to the elementary school across the street from my house. Either way it was a lot more fun than waking up to an alarm. I started that day PUMPED! Haha

The true story behind this video: Someone got a new drone and had to figure out how to include it in a video about drums.

[@buraikusu]

Had to do it for the tax writeoff

[@hiiamelecktro4985]

someone got a new giant elevator that goes to nowhere and just kinda drops you at some point****

First Comment again! Excellent consistency.

[@vvillv6995]

@@EMCproductions I swear I’m not on my phone all day I just get lucky😂

[@RedDogMamaHD]

​@@vvillv6995 So, what type of phone? Who's your provider? I think that has something to do with it. My IPAD (wifi) gets faster responses that my laptop (Xfinity) at home, or Verizon on my phone. Sometimes, the KZbin response is so slow that the discord announcement shows up before KZbin!

[@vvillv6995]

@@RedDogMamaHD I do think mobile devices get a faster response time. I usually get the notification faster when I am on my phone compared to my laptop.

the most proper and tasteful use of the lick i’ve heard in my entire life bravo 👏🏻

[@3F34N1M4T3S]

I had a huge smile when I saw it at the last part

[@GrahamSlam]

The lick at the end killed me.

[@FastnOut]

Same lmao

[@RedDogMamaHD]

Eric, I knew a video would be coming soon, but I had no idea what you would have planned for us. I have to say that you have far exceeded anything that we could have imagined. This obviously took longer to prepare than your Hawaii-Five-O video. And you successfully used every bit of space in your house, and every piece of percussion geer in your arsenal. But the drone footage and *constructing a Drop Tower in your back yard* just amazes me! I sure hope this goes viral! And that you gain more subscribers to become the number 1 EMC channel ... Oh, and this is video number 55 since you are growing out your beard!

[@toolfan46.26]

Was you saying something about constructing the drop tower in the backyard a joke, or do you think that he actually built one? Just wondering

[@RedDogMamaHD]

@@toolfan46.26 obviously a joke 😜 which is why I put it in *bold*

I never thought anyone would actually try to recreate this, I am very impressed Well done friend

[@DrMyat_]

Big respect for making it through without your skeleton spontaneously combusting

[@angelogomez2272]

I knew that this day would eventually come, the day where I get to witness Benson's drum solo recreated irl. I can finally rest at ease and rewatch this masterpiece. Thank you for this.

[@sarahr1269]

Underrated. This man has hecka talent to be able to play 150 piece solo that spans the entirety of his house. Bravo!

[@Fl_Broccodile]

AMAZING ERIC!! My childhood come true

[@jared4956]

I don’t normally like or comment on KZbin videos at all but the sheer amount of TALENT and DEDICATION to the piece is freaking phenomenal, well done

[@borby4584]

Man, it’s amazing that you did this without your skeleton lighting on fire. Congrats man

[@adamheughan5113]

As a drummer I am impressed. As a video editor I am also impressed. Nice.

[@allenmitchell09]

Man that rise and spin edit was really cool. Big ups!

[@seankorzenborn8912]

i just imagine your neighbors seeing all this happening and theyre like " this guy... again?" but that was pretty cool

[@SkyDimension]

I Never Thought I'd See Someone Rebuild Benson's Solo. And right now I'm here, HOLY SHIT 🔥 It was excellent and very good edition DAMN This man is extremely talented.

[@DiggingAtom]

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS EVER SINCE YOU MADE THE SERIES FOR CARTOONS PLAYING DRUMS THANK YOU SO MUCH 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@AustinTheSurvivor]

For years I've wanted to play this solo but was always intimidated by the amount of pieces, this inspired me.

[@bskaicao5894]

I smiled every single second of this, truly glad to see this come to life. Awesome work!

[@JemsXiong]

Ever since the first time I've seen the solo, I've always wanted to see someone do it

[@johnego669]

ever since I wrote this and discovered KZbin covers were a thing I've been waiting for some one to do this...it's been 10 years, and absolutely worth the wait. Eric CRUSHED this!

[@bobbarksofficial4335]

I watched this with no sound and I immediately knew you played The Lick at 2:22

[@fly9zipper]

Bro the lick at the end was amazing

[@Gabesgroovin]

Someone finally did it. Incredible. I've waited 10 years for this moment

[@nelly6016]

Eric’s drum set playing is slowly getting better

[@coreygeiger81]

JG Quintel needs to see this vid, immediately

[@johnego669]

He's already seen it. He sent it to me already. I'm the composer that wrote the original Benson drum solo and I've been scanning KZbin for some one to try this every couple months ever since the episode aired 10 years ago, I was about due to check again and JG sent Eric's first video of him transcribing the solo, then sent this to me when it posted. This video is just amazing.

[@outofboundsbro]

I'll see you guys when this video reaches millions of views 🤙

[@vinidscastro]

Fake, your skull didn't catch fire 😂 Amazing job Man! I love this episode

A Sabian HHX man after my own heart! The HHX complex, and HHX Dave Weckl Sugnature models are also UNBELIEVABLE! I use Ks, a couple Meinl plates, a Paiste signature fast crash, and a 21" Meinl Polyphonic or Sabian HHX complex 21", all combined, and Ibget a lot of comments in how good KY plates sound. Yours sound phenomenal, adlnd you've made HUGE progress on the kit in a very short amount of time. Very impressive! 👏 👊 👍

the most impressive part about this is he managed to play it without his bones catching fire

The fact that both the police and his neighbor was outside his house durring the outdoors section means that A) the police live next door Or B) he had to do so many attempts that they got so agitated and called the police which then lead to the cops watching his every take out of morbid curiosity and/or hilarity. Either way class act

The man has gone absolutely bonkers. I can't remember the last time I saw any drums video or content as interesting and inventive as this one. Edit: the drums that are all over the floor after the crash are the aqua ones instead of the gray/ light blue ones. I think the animators messed up there.
