Wow. Thinking back to my first drum cover, if you would have told me that one day I'll find myself on a mountain in British Columbia shooting a Tool cover, while working on my first album, while about to launch my instructional dvd/book/cd I would never in a million billion years have believed you. Funny how life works. This shoot was so much fun, the people at Drumeo are the nicest people I've ever met, and such pros (yes, you - Jared, Victor, James & Kyle). It was supposed to be raining that day, and this would have had to be shot in the studio, but by some marvelous twist of fate the weather forecast changed the day before, and we were able to shoot outside. Hooray!!
I have to say playing on gravel is much harder then it looks - it was literally impossible to find a good place for the pedals. Had to use muscles I didn't know existed to pull this off...I got the worst sunburn on my back too, so now my back is super tanned while my front is still pale as ever. haha. But on the bright side, did you see this video??? How will I ever be able to shoot another? Next one will have to be shot from a helicopter while I'm skydiving with my set and playing Meshuggah.

Great drumming. Love to play barefoot

[@GuessTech]

From a fellow professional drummer -- You are incredible. I don't think many people understand quite the difficulty in mastering these compositions. It's much easier to put your own twist (for me anyways) when playing any song (cover) -- But to match it lick for lick,.. pitch/timber.. attack angle,, etc to the "T" if you will is incredibly difficult. I did find myself thinking you looked awkward or uncomfortable in your playing style when I first watched you .. but after going through your videos in entirity -- I see this is just you! -- Also,.. your speed and not overplaying (wasting energy) is fantastic! Keep the songs coming, along with solo's, and any original stuff. Although I know covers are what pay the bills and what the "majority" of viewers would like to see.

[@johnhutsler8122]

I've honestly probably watched this cover around 40 times in the last 9 years or so - It's insanely good. If you're a drummer, then you know - Danny Carey's time signatures are insanity, very very hard to play. He does the weirdest things with his drumming, and it's definitely a level 10 difficulty. She nails this - No missed timing, no misses on any cymbals, toms, base, crashes, etc. Not all drum covers of Tool songs can say that. They usually improvise or miss something along the way, but Meytal doesn't miss anything lol. Awesome stuff, 10/10

You have to ask why she hates it. You will most likely hear a preconceved idea. I personally will pick and chose what music and the band to me is just a root directory. For instance i don't like Billy Corigan, but i do like a lot of the music Smashing Pumpkins makes.
