    Dude Cobus.... As a drummer of over 50 years experience you are stellar!! Of course for me there was a many decade period where I played very little drums to raise a family. But you'll find when you reach my age [65] the desire to play drums NEVER leaves you. This year I hope to put up my kit since our sons have left to start their own family. I know I'll suck but the desire and joy will still be intact. The best to you and your future for drumming.

    Hey dude, know I commented earlier but I watched this a few more times today and just wanted to give you a heartfelt review:
    To start, great choice of a song to do with this - it has distinctly different sections with different styles of drumming throughout. With that being said, I'm just a hobby drummer (and severe enthusiast of this type of rock music) who REALLY appreciates what you did here.
    You have a very unique style of play that isn't often seen amongst drummers. You combine a really intensely precise, yet natural flow of drumming throughout the whole song...it's really so much fun to watch because of your style in and of itself.
    The crisp and sharp fills and transitions are particularly impressive - it's always fun to drum in the car (and to have my wife tell me that I'm going to hit her in the face by mistake while rolling down the toms and landing on that 4th beat crash/bass combo) and you have such a constant, animated show that you put on visually...it's like you're jamming in the car, but you have the whole set in front of you - and that's a real treat to watch
    That leads to the last bit - you make such efficient use of any and all available air time with your own riffs and fills. Each and every limb is ALWAYS busy...they are always being used to the most of their potential. There's a lot of creativity behind all of that, and for some drummers it takes a lot of practice to nail all of those ideas....and there are others who can do that on the fly, and each time they play the song, there will be different sounds and fills. Regardless of how you make those fills, there's a huge talent there (in either case) that deserves appreciation...and I, sir, appreciate the SHIT out of this drum cover.
    Well done, my man
    Sincerely,
    A really enthusiastic fan of your drumming

    "Bat Country"
    "He who makes a beast out of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man"
    Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay
    I tried to drive all through the night
    The heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sights
    No oasis here to see, the sand is singing deathless words to me
    Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
    Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction
    My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
    No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention
    As I adjust to my new sights the rarely tired lights will take me to new heights
    My hand is on the trigger I'm ready to ignite
    Tomorrow might not make it but everything's all right
    Mental fiction, follow me; show me what it's like to be set free
    Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
    Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction
    My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
    No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention
    So sorry you're not here I've been chained too long my vision's so unclear
    Now take a trip with me but don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem
    Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay
    These eyes won't see the same, after I flip today
    Sometimes I don't know why we'd rather live than die
    We look up towards the sky for answers to our lives
    We may get some solutions but most just pass us by
    Don't want your absolution cause I can't make it right
    I'll make a beast out of myself, gets rid of all the pain of being a man
    Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
    Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction
    My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
    No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention
    So sorry you're not here I've been sane too long my vision's so unclear
    Now take a trip with me but don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem
    I've known it from the start all these good ideas will tear your brain apart
    Scared but you can follow me I'm too weird to live but much too rare to die

    Omg I really want to see Cobus play Save Me, or other songs in the Nightmare album. Tbh I just wanna see him play more A7x songs in general, but specifically Save Me, because as a fellow drummer I like his style, and he has some nice grooves and fills that he throws in, the man's just full of surprises 😁😁
