I tried to learn to play the drums in 30 days
#CallMeKevin #Vlog #Drums - บันเทิง
Honestly, as someone who also has ADHD and struggles with longterm commitment to projects/learning new skills, you're kind of an inspiration. You have no fear of picking up something entirely out of your comfort zone, giving yourself a stressful deadline, and pushing through the phase of being not good and feeling like you look silly (you didn't btw I just am familiar with the feeling). Very proud of you! You kick ass at everything you do!
Truer words have never been spoken
How can you tell if u have adhd? I want to check myself
@barrolboi5105 ADHD looks different in different people. Best way to know is to ask a professional (though depending on the country, state, even individual doctors, you may have people that under diagnose you just because of things like being a woman, being good in school, having a successful career). Even though you can be ADHD and any of those things. Common signs are: really hard to focus on anything not interesting; hyperfocusing on things you love; easily lose track of time a lot; trouble learning in traditional learning/education systems; and many more
So so true! As an ADHD person who was designated gifted as a kid, it puts an unbelievable amount of pressure on you to be perfect immediately upon trying something new. Kevin, you are awesome and the whole community is so proud of you!
Drums is pretty much the best instrument if you have ADHD, from personal experience
Completely agree with the accessibility, I was a guitarist who turned into a drummer because of this point. If you learn a single drum beat, you can pretty much play along with any song! Drums are very improvisational, whereas guitar (or anything else with notes) you need to learn the song or at least the key it is in first or you will not be able to play along to something. I hope you keep at it and they give as much joy as they have given me over the years!
As someone with basically the same experience, I totally agree, I just found the ability to start from basically nothing so much less daunting than any other instrument. (Also, you should play ksp again)
Cool to see you here, Matt! I saw you comment on a Spiffing Brit video recently, too :D
Matt you watch call me kevin? love to see it
As a guitarist turned bassist I can completely agree with learning all aspects of song making will help you improve. I couldn’t understand what my old drummer was talking about when he was saying that he was needing me to be intime as the bassist because I was trying to follow him. Then i learned how to play a couple of songs on drums (also adhd took for ever to learn) and then it kinda just clicked one day.
Also the song yellow by cold play and boulevard of broken dreams by Green Day is basically the same on drums lol.
Kevin might not be a drumming genius. But he is certainly a life genius. The fact that he is an adult with ADHD, trying something really fecking hard for the very first time, that he's willing to fail, and be frustrated, and look like an idiot while still recording and showing this to all of us, is more than enough reason for me to respect and admire him. You'll be a top drummer one day Kevo! Thanks for inspiring us and making our days lighter with your great charisma. You're amazing dude! ❤
No shit he just started
@@YoMama9021🤓👆
His progression is insanely slow tho. That's something you should do in about 30 min - 1 hour@@YoMama9021
Kevin the military genius, the farming genius, now the one man band! So amazing!
Honestly as someone who struggles with my own ADHD and having no motivation to start the endless amount of hobbies and talents I want to try out this legit brought tears to my eyes. Never stop being you, Kevin.
Same here, Kevin is our ADHD hero
same
same
Don't forget pro skater
The fact he didn't force his sims to play for eternity is true character development
they got a day off in the basement
Don't give him any ideas 😂
that's the next video lol
Whew... My sims also have adhd and that would kill them!
Nah thats next video
Kevin doing these 30 day challenges gives me hope that I can also achieve anything
Yeah, been enjoying them a lot as well
You can't monetize it like he can and guarantee a return of investment for your time regardless of outcome, that's the difference.
@@OrgusDin I mean sure but these are just hobbies anyway and you can just dedicate like an hour of your time everyday to improve on something you genuinely like to know about
Same! I've wanted to play guitar and drums my whole life. Drums is out of the question for now, being very limited on space. But I just recently got a guitar! Have never been so excited. Started practicing and immediately got discouraged.. which I guess was expected. Seeing Kevin, or anyone really, go on and push forward is exactly what you need. Sometimes it really helps to see others' motivation to pick you back up and keep at it.
As a former band kid it was extremely endearing to hear Kevin voice these common thoughts young musicians tend to have about learning music. It always seems insane at the beginning but once you're past that initial learning curve suddenly the tips and tricks make more sense and before you know it other people are surprised by your talent
*Hugs you!*
The skateboarding video he did a while back haunted me, and now I've gone from someone who doesn't skate at all, to someone with three different longboards. I hope Kevin keeps making videos about trying new things and devoting himself to these new experiences. It's encouraging to watch!
kevin's not just a military genius he's also a musical genius
military, tactical, recording, interior design, architecture, recording, racing, artist, musical what are we missing?
@@JulesIsTallrecording?
@@JulesIsTallhe’s also a artist genius
What makes this so good is, in actual fact, everyone who plays the drums, goes through the EXACT same frustrations and challenges when you start to actually learn the drums. Bravo for sticking with it (drum pun) Kevin
Not just drums. Piano, orchestral strings, guitar, every instrument has very similar issues to get past. The only difference between instruments is the specific variation of the same problem, really.
Yeeep hahaha was funny watching
@@Avruthlelbh I've been playing guitar for 12 years and I've found that when I get frustrated or bored its best to wait until something reignites your love for it
I still go through these frustrations now, actually makes me want to practice more remembering the start we all had
@@andrewzvara6102sometimes that "something" is buying another guitar
As a drummer I gotta say this was really cool to see I'm glad this awesome instrument has found you well
Lol literally thought the same thing! Great video to show beginning students to encourage them to stick with it cause it’s hella fun
As someone who spent like 9 years learning music theory, its complicated. It's definitely a useful skill for anyone with an interest in music (it's kind of like another language), but it isn't hugely practical outside of more classical instruments (violins, trumpets, clarinets, that kinda thing). But honestly, I am always completely inspired by everything you do Kevin, and I know I'm just one of like a thousand comments but I hope you know how much you mean to the people who follow you, and how much we're inspired by you and proud of what you accomplish.
Oh no I’m taking music theory next semester and I don’t play classical instruments
@@starcrysis23 as someone who has been doing music related things for nearly 30 years, I totally disagree with the original post's idea that music theory is only practical for classical instruments. I do agree, that if you think of music as a language, then music theory is its grammar. And like all grammars, it is as useful as you let it be. It can give you a lot of tools, and you have to think about which tools are useful in different situations. Since music theory is often taught from a classical perspective, some of it will be less directly impactful for your own music, but I can just about guarantee that if you learn it with an open mind, you will see how even those seemingly unrelated ideas help you understand and appreciate the genres you do enjoy. It takes patience, but if you take the effort to see how it can fit into your style of music, theory will help a lot - even if it just gives you a vocabulary to talk about things in your music that you didn't know the words for before, that is a significant help in making it easier to think through your own music.
@@bricelory9534 I completely agree!
I am by no means even close to being a master in music theory, but I do know it's helped me appreciate music more.
I kid you not, music theory and knowledge gained from it has even been able to reach into Black Metal for me. (That sentence was a little weird in terms of wording, so I will clarify, I have been listening to black metal for a very long time, and I am trying to say that knowing music theory is still good, even in such a peculiar musical genre.)
i ahve a question.... do i need to learn music theory n that shit if i wanna becoma a rapper? or like rap in general?
@@starcrysis23 music theory is totally worth it for anything music, I had that mentality for ages until I finally decided to study music theory and eeverything is so easier now for anything musical, I wish I studied that at the start. Even for mixing a mastering, things that I do more nowadays than writing music, is way better if you know how it works "behind the scenes"
Kevin seems like the person to buy a plane and try to learn how to fly it in 30 days
Don't give him ideas
Judging by Kevin's skills demonstrated in the Microsoft Flight Simulator, he wouldn't need 30 days, he's ready.
Oh he can definitely fly a plane but can he land it?
Well, let's say he can get it to the ground @@Artycuno
Maybe an electronic model plane first xD
i'm loving the branden cutout in the background so far. it's giving the energy of a dad who showed up for the last 2 minutes of his child's drum performance and is watching with concern.
Seeing Kevin smile while playing the drums during the song is just everything. I'm so proud. 🫶
Mr Greggles is such a good friend for helping Kevin with this and being so patient and supportive! And an even better friend for letting Kevin use the footage even though his fly was very open the whole time 😂
Kevin is a music genius
First the guitar
Second the countless souls of Jim's victims
Third the drums
And before guitar, his beautiful voice. He's a great singer.
I loved that bit about writing your own music language. One of the good parts of ADHD is ignoring how things are done and rebuilding them from the ground up yourself to make it easier to understand lol.
That’s how I’ve done my whole job haha
I'm slowly learning how to do this, not quite there yet tho
I’ve always just done stuff my own way. It made it confusing for teachers trying to work out how I solved my maths equations.
@@rachelcookie321 You are either amazing, or this was before or in high school.
Cheers anyways! Good luck!
@@mleszzor6866 what do you mean? How am I amazing?
“This is very hard”
“You’re doing it though!”
That is honestly a super encouraging response, I wanna try saying that the next time I’m trying to teach someone something
Actually got emotional seeing the final result. Kevin, I’m so proud of you!! Seeing you try all these new things out of your comfort zone, overcoming obstacles along the way.. you’re genuinely an inspiration for me!! Thank you so much for sharing your progress with us! Can’t wait to see what the next great thing you achieve will be!💛💛
You absolutely crushed it man! I am glad I could help out with your drumming journey! 😁
You did a great job explaining it to him, And I’m shocked he can sing I had no clue.
@@Shadow_SketchHe's done lots of singing! Not only on the main channel but be has a whole second channel for music, you should check it out!
@@Shadow_Sketch if you were asking what his singing channel was, its "Kevo"!
@@dabordietrying Ok, Thanks. Ima have to check that out
Your explanation actually helped me figure out the sync as well! Nice job! 👍🏼
As someone that had drumming lessons for about 8 years, it was amazing to watch your progress. You did really well for only 30 days of practicing.
Im loving the irl learning new skills videos! Im Kevins age and I think its really admirable how he pushes through the initial "idk what im doing" phase. I also think its really refreshing how honest he is about life/mental health/lack of motivation/frustration getting in the way of developing new skills and how that affects his timelines. And how he finds alternative ways of teaching himself, ways that work for him as an individual. I actually started drawing again after the art/painting video. And its felt really damn good, honestly, and Ive been finding tutorials to get better that work for my learning style. These videos are a lovely reminder that I can still pick up hobbies Ive always had an interest in. Thanks for the inspiration, Kevin!
If it’s any consolation, as a violinist in orchestra I still find the whole keeping in time and counting bars thing challenging. And as someone who is more or less terrified of doing something new, it always blows me away when you keep popping up and decide to try new things. Props to you, Kevin
The happiness on his face at the end feeling that rush of learning a song for the first time and seeing all the hard work pay off...damn it takes me back! Good job Kev! Dont stop doing music!
ikr this is such a wholesome video i swear🥺💓
Tip for practicing most physical skills (and probably most non-physical ones as well): Notice how Kevin goes through phases of settling into a rhythm and feeling confident, then faltering and feeling like it's slipping away again. Always try to finish your sessions during the highs rather than the lows. Even though it's tempting to keep going for as long as it feels smooth and natural, you really don't want to wear yourself out until you start to stumble again. Not only will that leave you in a discouraged mood, it focuses your brain on the wrong pattern between practices (especially overnight when your brain transfers things from short-term to long-term memory in your sleep), which can actually further cement the wrong muscle memory over time. End on a high note, and you're more likely to start on one next time!
And what if we can't quite hit that high note to end on it?
I teach flying and I always try never let a flight end on a bad landing. This is great advice.
@@youtubeuniversity3638 It doesn't have to be spectacular or anything! Just try to finish your sessions on a relatively high note for you. If you're thinking, "Hey, I feel like I'm kind of getting it!" or, "Things are going a little better now!" just try not to push on too long or overthink it. That's often a good time to wrap up and come back to it later.
@@littleferrhis This is especially true with more anxious students or more stressful activities like learning to fly! It's the partner of the "get back on the horse" axiom. If you have an unpleasant experience it's often better to try for a better one before walking away for the day, or that anxiety can really settle in over the break. I definitely found that to be true with gymnastics. Of course, a truly traumatic experience can make a high-risk activity too dangerous by lowering situational awareness. Flying is a great example there as well. There's a reason you don't just shove a crew onto their next flight after a serious aviation incident. Gotta practice good CRM and assess your mental state!
This sounds like great advice that I needed to hear (as someone who doesn't know when to stop once the ADHD takes over lol). Thank you!
I got a dual diagnosis of ADHD and autism recently so I get the struggle with trying to hold long term goals and attention span in general I’ve watched you for a long time so it’s good to see you push yourself and try grow on your issues makes me want to do the same. I also love seeing how far you’ve came with music over the past few years I’d love to see you play some more of the drums in future if you keep up on them.
Gosh I had the biggest smile ever when the full song began. Well done Kevin that was super impressive !!
I love these videos I was hoping to see more after the drawing one and skateboard one
Yeah same here
yesss I always love "something a little bit different"
Same
Sammee ❤
Seeing Kevin smile when he knows he’s doing a good job is so heartwarming.
Videos like this highlight why I admire Kevin so much. His willingness to try new things which are completely outside his comfort zone is truly inspiring to me 😁
*Hugs you!*
Seeing the pride on Kevin's face while he recorded the drums seriously made me tear up! Great job, great singing voice too!
Kevin, I’ve been playing guitar for 10 years and watching your videos for around 5. If someone would have challenged me to learn an instrument and play a song in 30 days back then, I would have gone insane. Even now, after a decade of playing different instruments, I don’t think I could have done what you did. This is a huge achievement, and I really hope you stick with it! It seems like you really enjoy this and would make an excellent drummer.
I admire you cuz you can play guitar. I have one and I tried to learn by myself but it went nowhere 😭😭😭
@@damilinot lol, I started when I was 11 and had nothing better to do than learn. I got pretty good but dropped it for a few years. When I became interested again I already had the basics down so getting really good went pretty quick
@@damilinot if you ever pick it up again you should start with those cringe songs everybody plays. your riptide, wonderwall, seven nation army, stairway, throw in a nirvana song or two, and youve got the basics down. barre chords come to us all eventually dawg
Consider drumming to some hiphop(like dre, or Timbaland beats). Classic hiphop sticks to the same pattern through the whole song, and are around your bmp comfort zone.
Plus, it sounds better.
The constant smiling in this video made me really happy! During the cover you look like you're enjoying yourself and that's what's most important when creating art!!
10:13, 15:55 This is true. I experienced it with helicopter training before. One day I was having a hard time getting down hovering (which is hard) and the next time I went, I suddenly realized I was doing it successfully and much better
These IRL Kevin videos are always so so good
seconded
I'm a classical musician (clarinet gang) so watching Kevin write his weird music binary and his friends explanation was giving me a stroke. But it was really also inspiring for me to keep going with my own clarinet despite wanting to give up. The music environment for me can be really stifling and everything has to be done a certain way, and sometimes makes music so sterile. But watching Kevin experience so much joy reminds me of what it learning and playing music can be like
This is what I love about you. You aren't afraid to try something new, completely out of your comfort zone. I'm proud of your progress.
When you have adhd it is really difficult to not try new things since you get bored so easily and you get way too excited to try the new thing that your hands literally itching to start doing it. I dont know how many times that I saw a sims 3 video and instal all of the expansion pack(Which is an arduous task that takes 2-3 days because of mods,fixes and custom content) then ditching it half playthought convinced that I wont play it anymore uninstall it and forget it for a year.
I am a drummer, and I'm in awe at the progress you made so quickly. Specially the staying in time thing. That's hard. Two thumbs up - well done! Nice vocals too, by the way.
This video brought such a smile to my face. Learning an instrument is probably one of the most fulfilling things to do in life, esp ones that are intimidating. I love seeing people's spark for music and this is just a wonderful example of that. As someone who's been wanting to learn the drums their whole life, this is so encouraging!
Kevin, I'm a drummer and I'm blown away by your growth from the beginning to the end of the video. Be proud!! You're amazing 🥁
I live with chronic anxiety and afraid of failure so a lot of my new hobbies I get overwhelmed with and throw aside to collect dust. It is so incredible how you kept going and pushed through!
You can always wear glasses and have it as a persona of your more confident, always succeeding everything self
I haven’t played my guitar in years because of my anxiety
You know I have never tried cool glasses before! 😆@@yuki97kira
Seeing kevin smile, looking so proud of himself as he plays at the end is actually really heart warming after seeing how much he struggled and how hard he worked. Good on him.
25:10 Kevo O'Drummer looks like a child whose father's friend let him play the drums for the first time and now he is super concentrated to prove to his dad that he needs to buy him the drums
honestly tho, good job Kevin, we're proud of you
i feel like a proud mother despite Kevin being a few years older than me. I'm so happy I've been able to see his journey through the years. i cant express how grateful i am to have known about him. what a beautiful soul. so hardworking, talented, kind, funny, just so amazing. much love to you Kevin for real.
*Hugs you!*
As someone who’s been playing drumset since 5th grade, I can definitely confirm that kevin made more progress in his first 30 days than I did in my first 60, Amazing!
It's absolutely inspiring to see you accomplish goals like this, despite the hurdles, and even especially BECAUSE of them. Also very fun to see you take pride in the journey and progress. I look forward to seeing you do another full song cover including the drums at some point to see progress. I get the feeling this isn't going to be a skill you let fall by the wayside.
this is so damn inspiring. we’re all very proud of you kevin 🥹
good progress man, from one drummer to another, I would just like to give you a bit of a tip bud, and that is: When you're deep into the art of drumming, don't just focus on the beats-dive into dynamics. Experiment with varying your stick intensity and control. Play a pattern softly, then gradually increase the intensity, and finally, bring it back down. This adds a whole new dimension to your playing and keeps things interesting. Dynamics can turn a good drummer into a great one. Give it a shot! (hope this helps)
id like to add that this goes for every instrument. dynamics are what separate the great songs from the good. Could you imagine karma police at the same intensity the whole way thru
Kevs smile when he realised he was actually doing it made my day. from one adhder to another learning shit is hard even when you want to but you did it man doesnt matter how long it took, you damn well did it!! Hope to see another drum cover some time in the future
I didn’t expect to get hooked to this video this much, but this was a wonderful side project you accomplished. As someone that also suffers from focusing on stuff and finishing projects, I know how impressive all of this was. I’d love to see more side stuff from you in the future!
Kevin O'Tambourine and Kevin O'Backingvocals are the unsing heroes of the final song. Terrific efforts by all.
oh Kevin, I used to play the drums when I was a teenager and I can't express how happy you made me feel with this video. I smiled all the way to the end and I could barely hold my tears with your cover. Congrats, you're amazing as always.
Fr, I was sat here like "wtf why am I tearing up??" but it's because I'm proud of him :')
@@sleepythemis yesss!!! he seemed so happy for achieving it ❤
I've been in bed for over a week dealing with depression. Watching this legitimately gives me the motivation to get up and do something. Thank you and Well done! ❤
Clapping for ya, hang in there boss. Also your hair rocks I'm super jealous lol.
Download his version of this song and play it for your alarm
I can't remember if I knew you had ADHD or not (part of my own issues with it means I never remember anything lol) but seeing videos like this is super inspiring. I love seeing the representation and normalisation of ADHD stuff, really reminds me that I'm not the only one
This is honestly one of my favorite videos of you by far. I love that you talked about how you struggle with staying on task (same) but showed just how rewarding it is with something that’s easier for people who struggle with that. Not to mention your lyrics will forever play in my head instead of the real ones. Keep up the great content Kevin. You never cease to make me smile. 😊
Kevin is doing so many hobbies;;!! im so proud of him for expanding his horizons and trying new things
Rest in power Kevin O'Reilly. All stand for Kevin O’Drums aka the little drummer boy aka drumming up that hill aka drums of fun!
Kevin's just completing sidequests in his life
i have never been more proud to be a subscriber to kevin. great job man
I love how happy Kevin looks throughout especially at the end we love u Kevin
As a drummer this video is well received 👏🏻 waiting to see this kit you build
Great job, Kevin. Inspiring and fun work every time. We all love it.
I love these videos! It's so fun to follow along as you learn something new
I love these videos watching you build skills, try new things, and find new hobbies! This could be a whole series. ❤
Your friend Greg's explanation was awesome. I've never played drums but I feel like I could get the basics just from listening to him 😂
He was such a great and lovely teacher!
it's so intimidating, but really is that easy
*Hugs you!*
I love watching videos like this so much! Watching Kevin learn a new skill and become such an impressive person is so cool!
You did an amazing job. Seeing people my age trying new things with so much excitement and enthusiasm really does make me feel like I can do it too. I honestly love when you do this sort of content. It's so heartfelt and joyous.
I’ve been watching for years, I’m just so proud of Kevin. The growth, his Chanel, just him as a person. We love you Kevin
ugh right 😫 has me feeling like a proud mother
@@dabordietrying I am somehow both the proud mother and the awed child
@@LilPerrin omg, exactly! you explained it perfectly
@@dabordietrying it’s like watching him grow up, go through his growing pains, and we are here now, happy to see the person he has become! #proud father of Kevin I’m even younger than him by a few years!
As a lifelong musician (and longtime fan of you, and ADHD haver) this brings immeasurable joy to me. A lot of people are really put off by the prospect of starting an instrument and for you to get over the hump AND stick with it which is another thing that bounces people away is awesome, not in a weird condescend-y way but I'm proud as heck of you
I absolutely love this type of videos! Keep going Kevin. You are awesome!
i love seeing ur try [and succeed] at things like this! is so fun to watch and inspiring too! much love
These videos are like the kindest push to get me to keep working on some of the many art projects I abandoned partway through. I don't know if this is the big project you'd been working on in the background, but I definitely appreciate this video!
You've got to be one of the only people I will click on the video of, regardless of if it's even remotely related to the kinds of videos I'll typically watch.
I _also_ deeply appreciate the casual mention of ADHD. I was diagnosed when I was very little, and told not to tell people that I had it. So the destigmatizing is much appreciated.
Also, I fully expect the Spedicey man to be proud of your progress, as he also did drumming.
Kevin you make me feel so seen and give me so much hope for myself. I struggle with a lot of the same things you do and seeing you overcome the challenges I often feel are insurmountable is inspirational and helps me make it through the tough stuff. Thank you man. For all the things you create. For being yourself and putting yourself out there. You help so many people with your content.
I love love love these videos Kevin. You are so talented and it’s so cool to watch you put that brain to work!!!
Ngl watching this has actually made me smile for the first time this week. Going from struggle to actually being able to accomplish the task is actually so hard, especially when you have several things stopping you like ADHD or any other illness. Its seriously inspiring so thank you for this video Kevin 💙
*Hugs you!*
The level of coordination and independence you developed in 30 days is amazing to see--especially considering you took a break in the middle! I think playing all of the "ands" on the hi-hat isn't something most people would pick up so quickly. And props to you for having the confidence to record the drums all in one take; that's something I still struggle with after 15 years of drumming!
In addition, the jigsaw puzzle analogy is a great way to explain the breakthroughs that I sometimes experience when learning new things on the drums. I'll have to start using that.
As someone who also has ADHD, I always find it inspiring to see the level of discipline and determination people exhibit when learning new things like this. Thanks for documenting your journey, Kevin!
I love these videos the most out of all of your content. You should do more stuff like this! Great video!
I love love watching your videos when you learn stuff! It’s so inspirational and funny! You also absolutely nailed it 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Kevin’s videos are so random I love it
Kevin is a military genius, and a drumming genius
imagine the utopia we'd live in if kevin was the first best drummer in the beatles.
He is indeed a musical genius.
I love this sort of video. They're great to put on while I'm working at learning something new.
Always love these learning videos!!! Thank you for being you, Kevin!
Yes! Love the real life you learning stuff videos, thank you Kevin :D
No joke inspiring. I’ve been watching you for like 12 years give or take, since the CoD trolling days and OG Sims 3 Jim Pickens. I was 12 years old back then, and now I have a real career. Happy you’re still kicking ass
Wow that is crazy, so much must have changed in your life through the years of watching Kevin. You must be proud of everything you have overcame and the things you have achieved
*Hugs you!*
im a drummer, and i love seeing these “i tried to learn drums in 30 days” videos. i love seeing more people get into drums
I love these types of videos, its really neat seeing the progress you make
I have ADHD too, and I'm trying to learn to juggle for my partner (it's a long story) and this has helped me feel better and not alone.
You're a gift Kev
(EDIT: She left me, so I'm no longer learning to juggle. Still appreciate you though Kev!)
KEVIN THIS WAS AMAZING! Its been so great watching your musical progress for the last few years! It must have felt SO cool to play a whole song by yourself! Practice pays off, everyone! :)
I really like this type of videos kev. This is awesome and kudos to you, it sounds really good man!
Kevin, you fucking legend! What an awesome journey you shared. Inspiring to say the least, entertaining to the limit. Never change
Never realized how complicated drum sets were to build/assemble. Disappointed in Brendan Fraser for not even offering to help
I really appreciate being able to see this journey Kevin. Like being able to get yourself to come back and keep trying even if you stopped for a while. As a recovering perfectionist, I have a hard time restarting if my plan didn’t go how I pictured it or I don’t pick something up as fast as I want. It’s nice to be reminded that what matters is that you keep trying.
Honestly, this has inspired me to get my gaff in order, and I'm not even sure how. Thanks, Kevin, I've been avoiding tidying for over a week now.
genuinely these kind of videos are so inspiring! well done :)
I remember when you first said you'd be doing slightly different projects a while ago and wondering how they'd go. Seeing how happy you looked during the drum performance as you nailed it shows how much of a good decision it was. Much love Kevo keep up the great work
As an ADHD brain around the same age as you, who played percussion for more than a decade a decade ago, but never learned to play a drum kit, I’m both proud of your ability to pick this up so quickly, and inspired to consider actually picking it up eventually.
I love the creativity of this so much. Thank you Kevin for sharing this. Cheers.
I’m loving these types of videos so much. You REALLY seemed to enjoy learning the drums here and it warmed my heart to see! This video was just so genuine and good
The message these challenges send is so important: Try something new! Don't expect to master it within an hour and know, it will take time and hard work. Thank you, Kevin!
