[@JohnDunstonDrums]

Right! It's such a killer song. Thanks brother!

[@Zaytris]

Bravo good sir!!!!!!

[@JohnDunstonDrums]

Thank you!

[@mikedunston4615]

John has the technical capability of stepping in and playing live in two weeks. He can play from Neal Peart to Dream Theatre. Yep that’s a bold statement, you judge for yourself. His ability to adapt would be seamless. Yep he is my brother and I am biased., but he undeniably a bad ass, and a master of his domain.

[@JohnDunstonDrums]

Thanks my actual brother! 🤣

[@officerbiss]

1. Solid! 2. That’s the most intense and dialed in e-kit I have ever seen/heard. 3. What do you use to light the underside of your triggers?

[@JohnDunstonDrums]

@@officerbiss Thanks brother! I’m happy to answer your question! I used 3 foot led light strips. Instead of using the battery packs they came with I bought usb cables to power them, that I plugged into a powered USB hub. The hardest part was I had to drill holes in the side of the Roland PDX 100 since there is no opening on the bottom to run the cable for power. Hope that helps.

[@ChristianMacias-v6t]

I’m just a novice so I know my opinion doesn’t cary much weight, but this looks and sounds incredible! Keep it up brother!

[@JohnDunstonDrums]

Music is subjective! Thanks brother!

[@bl00dywelld0ne]

Let us summon the great algorithm and get ye moar views!

[@JohnDunstonDrums]

Damn straight! Thanks brother!

[@P2000Camaro]

Dude.. I *JUST* got a Roland TD-17KVX2 a few days ago.. While watching these submissions I was like "Man, it'd be cool if someone used an electric kit.." .... Boom. here you are with a BADASS ROLAND KIT!! I'm jealous, BUT.. Now I know what I can do with this kit! I fucking love the LEDs.. Also, rock solid playing dude..

[@JohnDunstonDrums]

@@P2000Camaro Thanks, brother! I’m excited for you! The sonic possibilities of e-drum kits are endless-you’ve got access to every drum and cymbal ever made, recorded by the best engineers in the best studios. Plus, the ability to practice without the volume of an acoustic kit is a total game-changer. I’d highly recommend using your MIDI out to trigger a program like Superior Drummer 3. That said, the onboard sounds are great for practice. You really can’t go wrong with Roland drums either-they’re the most durable and best-triggering e-drums I’ve ever used. Just make sure to dial in your settings so the drums respond as close to an acoustic kit as possible. I do this to ensure a seamless transition if I ever need to switch back to an acoustic setup. Merry Christmas!

[@fatehvlog6050]

Niccc bro

[@JohnDunstonDrums]

Thanks my brother from another mother!

[@RHCJam]

Ridonculous playing.

[@JohnDunstonDrums]

Thank you!

[@derfdoow195]

I find that he's behind the beat, and the extra double kicks aren't necessary My 2 cents

[@lastditch727]

Primus definitely needs acoustic drums.

[@jriding6161]

very impressive but I don't think Primus needs double-bass. Sounds like a heavier version of the original which to some may be good but not me. Still impressive playing.

[@JohnDunstonDrums]

@@jriding6161 Wynonna‘s Big Brown Beaver has double Bass in it as does Tommy the Cat, Jerry was a Race Car Driver, My Name is Mud as well as many others primus songs. Thanks though brother!

[@brenmfffusmc7803]

Your crazy bro, Primus has hella double bass in many of their songs. Have you actually listened to them? Any regular listener of the band would absolutely know that....just saying. John killed it, and definitely could see him playing with Primus!

[@Thurgor_Supreme]

No offense, but I don't think they want a guy with an e-kit

[@muffinman4353]

Your fake electronic drum sound just ain't cuttin' it Johnny. The rubber cymbals sound like garbage..... you're not the right fit, don't quit your cover band.

[@jimrickert1856]

Goofiest song ever.😢😢😢😢

[@JohnDunstonDrums]

Great musicianship, great song writing with hillarious lyrics! Primus is great Jim!

[@SASQUATCHBROTHERS]

Good drumming but worse pick….that song sux
