[@12345brick1]

Has anybody else been dying to see this second season? It feels unreal almost! Vic Firth has started something truly amazing !🙏

[@LockThePocket]

Yessirrrr

[@TheHuskiePhil]

Agh! Its awesome they are in a new season but I literally cannot wait for the rest of the videos

[@andyham6094]

This has to go on forever. Such a great idea. Loving his Tama and meinl sound. Those starclassic walnut birch drums sound so good.

[@SeanSentDaBeat]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 & Sput @6:30 lol, I was doin the same thing 🤦🏾‍♂️💀🤣😂🤣😂

[@drummerchen4053]

Sean，I'm a big fan of you！😄I'm expect to see your show！💪💪

[@SeanSentDaBeat]

Drummer Chen thank you 🖤. It was a fun day, y’all in for a treat this season! Oh I sound ok too. 🙄😂🤣😆

[@darrellcharlton8585]

Sean Wright are you on tour with anybody rn

[@jocquidixonmusicproduction988]

Sheesh ! This Alvin Ford dude is CLEAN ! Im digging his whole setup & sound ! One of the dopest things about the music world is that you'll never know every musician/ person, but through things like social media you can discover phenomenal musicians you've just have not seen.

[@jordanisawesome27]

So we just gonna ignore how Samir Moulay destroyed that solo? WHAT A BEAST!

[@jammcard]

Much love VF fam 💛

[@SatriaAndyKirana]

Cody Wright on the bass, people... KILLIN IT.

[@chrisdrums1910]

Satria Andy Kirana i feel like every musician with the last name Wright just kills, Troy Wright, Sean Wright, Cody Wright

[@Ianmahaffeypercussion]

That room is intimidating.

[@kmoe1981]

Tony Royster Jr. even in the building..... Dope 🔥 Sput the arrangements you do on here are phenomenal!!

[@cameronlee309]

Sput’s face before the solo starts is the best.... “like good lawd... here we go”

[@jamsjr44]

Not only are the drummers amazing but all the musicians and these compositions and song arrangements!

[@sounomt]

Sput is KILLLLLIN these arrangements omg😫, thank you Vic Firth and musicians!!!

[@yppug]

That bassist is legit so cool, stole the show for me. This whole team is full of absolute titans.

[@weediebraimah1867]

I'm very proud of this guy!

[@los4drum]

Miss you this season!! loved you last year!!

[@ethangormong7506]

Alvin plays with such passion and intention. Doesn't overplay when it's not his solo, but absolutely killed this track with groove and musicality. Phenomenal

[@THEEBlackAnime]

Besides the INSANELY dope solo at the end, that VAMP was 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@CarlHamilton1914]

I can say I’ve never heard of Alvin Ford but I definitely know him now and dude is killin!

[@maxalottalovin6210]

The kind of groove that puts color back into your soul

[@JayStiqs]

Tight playing from Alvin Ford. Super Crispy!

[@Kuba-hs4ns]

Unreal, so nice. Better Quality, but the Music and Drumming this time is just freaking unbelievable!!!!!

[@johnathonbirch3074]

Damn...what a way to start off season 2🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I'm speechless...

[@josephsocha8325]

A lot of these shots are giving me the same vibe as the snarky puppy studio vids. Absolutely love this series

[@The22Healer]

I'm still soaking in what I just watched! What a jam, that looked so fun! And that rhythm progression Alvin lays down at the end over the heavy keyboards!

[@nathanielking7481]

Tama needs to use this video as their primary advertising for their Starclassic WB kits. literally just show anyone the sounds it’s pulling in this video and it’s a done deal.

[@MrAVGNdude]

The bassist is LOCKED IN🥵🤙🏾

[@zwick6890]

So many great musicians- thank you for these videos- always amazing stuff

[@tonylancer7367]

0:27 Is that Tony Royster behind (on the left of) Quitin? 😯😯😯😯 Alvin Ford is complete fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Robert keeps on giving us the great hits, I wish how he does all this magic man!!!

[@matthewschaeffer4656]

Yea, when is he playing?! I don’t see him on the schedule

[@wesleyhermanus6646]

I thought the same thing!!!!

[@johnathonbirch3074]

Yeah it's him. They haven't officially announced that he'll be playing for this season but hopefully they'll keep this going and he could perform for season 3

[@markomarkovic5729]

Yeah, it's our bad-ass brother Tony

[@18badman98]

It looked like he was wearing in ears. That or just dope headphones .

[@mattkirkhamm]

[@skyreadersociety6183]

"music serving" drumming - instead of those overplayers recently. Very much appreciated!

[@italojedi462]

[@KevoDrumsGillespie]

At first i thought that Stanley Randolph was playing the Trombone...! hahahahaha

[@justinrensel8518]

me too lol

[@leeludolph5671]

I really think that all these songs should be on some sort of album that can be available on iTunes. Anyone agree?

[@gixxerboyroyluvdrumswaters9023]

Awesome stuff.

[@erinfinney]

Sizzling session with a fly band, showcasing Alvin's refined talent. Mix that up with Samir's sleek guitar solo and you've got great music.

[@ramykaram4278]

Awesome! I was hoping for a season 2

[@unknown8332]

Season 2 bouta be lit!!!!! Thank you Vic firth 🔥

[@antonpetrenko1687]

is that Tony Royster Jr in the crowd behind the keyboard player?

[@monthieuxgeordann3660]

yes

[@allulefcatalan.feley95]

Yes?!?! O.o :o

[@monthieuxgeordann3660]

​@@allulefcatalan.feley95it him

[@roypatterson9910]

I don't think that's Tony Royster jr., it's sort of looks like him, but I don't think it's him. I've never seen him wearing glasses before, sunglasses, yes, prescription glasses, no, so I'm pretty sure that's not him. I may be wrong, but that just doesn't look like him.

[@jasonputradarmawan]

yup that's him

[@antonhansen9238]

Wooooo!

[@DimitriFantini]

Alvin all the way

[@SalGonzalezSound]

Yes been waiting for season 2 so inspiring to see those monsters musicians perform.. always wondering who will be on the next one... that guy on trumpet thought he was bruce willis killing it

Pretty lights amazing group... Alvin is an incredible drummer.. Have a Pandora station dedicated to Pretty Lights.... -- Sunday School is my friggen jam--

[@clivesweet]

I see Tony Royster Jr in the background there, when you gonna showcase that beast? One of the greatest drummers alive but somehow flies under the radar.

[@peeeesus]

Clive Sweet Lol it’s not that. Its that we’re tired of seeing him 😂

[@Magro_music]

Yes! Killing performance!

Man my uncle is so solid bra💪🏽❤️

[@MrAndrewblazethomas]

Wow great job Alvin, did you right the arrangement’s 😊? they are killer you executed well👍🏿

[@maddrumfighter]

Is it the bassist who plays with eric gales on tour two years ago? I remember that eric gales said he learn all the songs in just one week after bassist defection. happy seeing him here, he really impressed me, like the rest of the band, at Guitare en scène, in France.

[@los4drum]

He was smackin!!

[@Drumheadrob]

Awesome!

The vamp in the end, wwhaatt??? How they maintain this line

[@Elewismusic]

Stanley Randolph..... IS THAT YOU ON TROMBONE 🤔🤔

[@benjamind1286]

Damn, that's a cool way to set up that 10 inch tom! I've never thought of that. I'll have to try it. My 10-inch Tom has been sitting in a closet collecting dust for over 10 years. Because, I don't like the way it feels to have two Toms on my bass drum. Also, this whole band is beyond sick.
