Luis Burgos Jr - Guitar Center's Drum-Off '11 Finalist

[@doodechannel4024]

Pure, groovy, and tasteful. Probably one of my favorite solos of any of the years.

[@MikeHatchellComedy]

i don't know if this was the best solo, but this is definitely my favorite one to repetitively listen do. smooth guy.

[@mjm5081]

Man that kit sounds AMAZING!...And great playing too! ❤

[@theaceofspadesjl]

he was definitely my favorite out of all of them

[@dcassisa42]

no tricks.. no gimics. Just straight GROOVE.. and to me thats what being a drummer is all about.. feeling the music

[@BumbaRasclot]

Man this dude killed it. Such a simple drum kit and he got so much out of it. Easily one of the best I've seen in these competitions

[@zooby11isbambam]

probably the best sounding snare i've ever heard.... no strike that... this is the best sounding snare i've ever heard.

[@MitchReitmanOnDrums]

My favorite beat to play. Hands down.

[@braenlymelo8316]

Still watching amazing performance in 2021

[@M4Moose]

Screw all you haters, This is style... and a drum solo, no one would expect him to play 4 to the floor for 5 mins. All i can say is that this is Tasty!!

[@iasibey1]

man tama drums are amazing

[@shueonballard2324]

Been watching a number of these lately and finally someone I can stomach. Ability along with feeling and groove minus all the worthless stick tricks and flash. And NO electronics! A true drummer.😁

[@rodrigoaraujo7323]

For me, he was the champion

[@TenchiQuis]

I like that beat at the beginning, solid

[@bobguy14]

amazing ghosted notes...I love this guy

[@KerWu]

what type of TAMA starclassic is it?

[@drummerboy231434]

The thing about this solo is its entertaining in the sense that non-drummers and not just drummers would get a kick out of listening to it.

[@Crazyegg1234]

@DREWSKIBOY1 they're now allowing drummers to sign up as of August 1rst

[@sibie1080]

AH! das my baby brother =) so proud of u pa ur da friggin man! stay tru 2 urself n do u on dat kit. We're entering a new age where ppl r just starting 2 learn what real music is again... A tru drummer isn't 5000 hat tricks n symbol flips, its getting technique down n remaining humble... n its wut dis fam does best n I love u morenito DO U!!!

[@BUBBAROC1]

Great drumming nice and tight.Kit has a great sound.I wonder what heads are on that kit.Tama ships with Evans.

[@HalfGermanBeats93]

Haters gonna hate. This guy has style, showmanship and groove.

[@roki92]

@gunfighterdrummer it´s a double pedal

[@edwardjohnson5331]

Wow ,no octo pads ,doesn't do flips with his sticks , doesn't stand on his stool , a real. Professional percussionist.. about time .finaly a winner who deserves to win!

[@deejyfed]

love it

[@vegan.yogi.drummer]

@rvarg89 i think is two on right pedal one on the left in a triplet feel

[@redguy1993]

@gunfighterdrummer it's dbl pdl..you can see it at 2:49

[@McGrot]

@iplaywithnoshoes Word. The sound of the snare is awesome too.

[@et720]

This guy is effin good...he doesn't have drummer ADHD where they switch beats every 2 seconds. He sticks with each beat for a while and lets it sink in...I like

[@lindajesse8250]

An attack of rhythm. All hands on skins. Energy at play. Beauteous.😊

[@tony13fg]

@joeycrow what would you have wanted to see?

[@johnrodriguez9977]

Yup ! This kid is really great the double pedal stuff is killer !

[@carlos1325963]

Love the groove.

[@beefhead27]

@heats1 thank you, just testing your knowledge of the amendments

[@roycisneros97]

If they took the octopad away this year and if he was a finalist this year, he could and should win! Pure groove and music

[@davids8765]

@gunfighterdrummer Well i thought your question was is he usin a double pedal...of curse there is a double pedal in that drum set

[@KellerColeman]

Great video, great chops!

[@DavidMcmenemy]

Loved it.

[@pinkhotty100]

Wow! Pure sweetness..

[@jockerboofer]

Soo groovy, awesome job man !

[@joshCamG]

He is just crazy...he doesn’t looks like that amazing drum player...looks simple and a gentle guy...but the way he plays is just wow and unbelievable and the the beating is just amazing tight...

[@3rudymora]

@F4LL3NFury yeah dude seriously since when did drums become a circus act?! i enjoy the groove and feel of the rhythm! how do stick flips help the feel or groove!?

[@DRod06DrumChamp]

Great job cuz.. U did your thing.. Much love. From Daniel Rodriguez 06 Drum Off.

[@jamiequinlan]

some one pleaaase enlighten me on what pattern he is doing for that groove?

[@iiDrum123]

his snare must be haunted from all the ghost notes

[@Tomk916]

I want to download this so bad.

[@bballer1919]

i cant quite disect the beat in the beginning. any help?

[@TheAnime23]

I haven't even seen who the winner is apparently yet but thus far this guy's flow ....OMG SOO SMOOTH!, much showmanship as well :p

[@TrevWILL79]

Nice work with the Double pedal. I'm not a fan of it but I like when its used properly. but three dudes used that same lick for crowd participation @ 4:04.

[@jamiequinlan]

I NEED to learn that beat. Anyone know what pattern he is using?

[@gunfighterdrummer]

@davids8765 hehehe, well i noticed and confirmed that it was a double pedal because i saw it in the vid itself. but good point.

[@organicmilk5]

i've probably seen this more than 10 times

[@bluuuuarrg]

imo i think these drummers in guitar center drum off plays better than the top 100 drummers in this world today.

[@KamenRiderRhino]

@GuitarCenterTV The title says 2011 ... People might get a little confused

[@bobayersquebec]

maybe my best drum off serie solo based on a beat !

[@rvarg89]

what exactly is he doin with his feet at 2:20 drummers of the universe tell meee

[@Brofessionalss]

This dude should've won... Such an awesome groove on that kit

[@zoner12311]

i never thought an OCDP X series snare would sound so good.

[@ForrestRice]

SO DAMN CLEAN

[@TrevWILL79]

Nice work with the Double pedal. I'm not a fan of it but I like when its used properly.

[@abcasd1]

does he use the moeller method

[@PartyMartyDrums]

@GiggityGretsch umm what groove?

[@Weallfart]

THIS IS VERY VERY VERY GOOD!!!

[@1drummachine20]

I know I have heard the opening groove TONS of times before, BUT........he was incredibly smooth not to mention the drums sound incredible. I wish at Charlotte NC drum off they tuned their drums better.

[@619505drummer]

absolute control of his playing

[@allfu93]

has anybody noticed that the video title says '11 drum off and at the beginning of the vid it says Drum Off 2010! WTF???????

[@jamiequinlan]

I am a proud owner of such a kit :)

[@davids8765]

@gunfighterdrummer Yes it was because his hi hat was open

[@markired42]

i love how the title of the video is 2011 and the background says 2010

[@JakeFields92]

such an epic introduction. thats the meanest shuffle ive ever heard

[@kawridr6]

@westernkusagi what do you mean by that?

[@buttersdus]

i like this performance because it's more about playing grooves rather than flashy drum fills and such.

[@joeyjuniorjunior]

its actually a 10" i own a set of TAMA buginga elite and i promise you when you tune them low there killer sounding, what kit do you have?

[@jej495]

3 best things to ever happen to man Water, Food, and Guitar Center Drum off

[@MrJohnAlexanderG]

what's the difference between a bunch of well structured grooves that progress from one to another and a drum solo? This is a legitimate question by the way, I really don't know much about drumming and am just curious.

[@nachosam98]

@gunfighterdrummer yes it was

[@kidnaz500]

this kid should be the winner.

[@dropthedead15]

more cowbell?

[@ErnieIthier]

Peopel he's a finalist, he did something right! jeez.... he has groove for days go check out his store vid and tell me he didn't kill his solo...

[@thereissomuchdeath]

is there a certain name for the way he is playing those ghost notes in the beginning?

[@Muahaha651]

@ZackLikesCheese so why didn't you try out and see if you could be a finalist?

[@nazal100ml]

You'are A Champion

[@Zazquatch1]

Yes I say the same....allthough I think it is a 10' and a 14 floor, 20 BD. I am glad I did not decide to buy TAMA. This is either a Maple kit or a Bubinga that is suppose to be "TOP OF THE LINE".

[@gmrios]

@Kudan26 speacially?

[@nachosam98]

this guy loves what he's doing

[@ForrestRice]

dang, this guy has been features twice cause guitar center never changed the date.

[@wynton765]

why didn't he win?

[@JesseBatesDrums]

this dude got the best tone and sound from that kit.its not just abot flash.

[@ChickenVendetta]

His small tom sounds frigging incredible.

[@xdrummer2010x]

This guys good, shuffle rhythms feel so good to play!

[@202drummerboy]

how old is he? tell me some one

[@xtenthfloorx]

this is ill,i love the starclassics sound is beautiful,go TAMA!

[@ascoltatoreful]

non lo conscevo,bellissimo!!!!!!

[@ForrestRice]

@allfu93 Its the drumming of the future man!

[@jmr2master]

@Ningirsutyr True, but go watch his entry videos from New york and you'll see how he got there. .

[@ronied125]

@TheAnime23 the winner is Isaias Gil.

[@maylarape618]

anyone know when guitar center drum off 2011 is scheduled?

[@gunfighterdrummer]

@666indahouse i know. theres not that many amature drummers you can name that can do something like that with one foot. that's what i meant, but it's not one it's two anyways. but yeah still impressive.

[@DREWSKIBOY1]

so when does the drum off start this year??? i keep looking it up but it wont say on google

[@Bzong]

@paisteguy799 no...he's pretty good. just loves his shuffles and hemiolas.

[@my300zx96]

yess!!!!
