Stairway to Heaven Drum Cover by Gary Schneider GS on Drums

One of the great rock tunes from Led Zeppelin and John Bonham. I've been asked to list the drum equipment I use so here it is for this song. A DW Classic kit with 13", 16" and 18" toms, a 24" kick and a Ludwig Suphraphonic chrome snare. The cymbals are all Zildjian....15" New Beat hats, a 17" K Custom Dark Crash, a 19" K Dark crash thin, a 18" A Custom crash, a 18" A Custom Projection crash and a 20" A Medium ride. The heads are mainly Remo coated Emperors on top and Remo clear Ambassadors on bottom. The kick is an Aquarian Super Kick II. This song goes out to my wife Carol....she loves this song! I hope you enjoy the video! Thanks.

Great cover. I love when younger guys can’t believe that older guys can rock. They don’t understand that this is OUR music. Great playing!!!

[@GarySchneiderGSonDrums]

The songs from our era are still the best rock songs. Thanks for watching

[@whitehawk68]

Yes younger guys can only look on , we actually grew up with the best music ever played!!!!!

[@josephcardinale4708]

Nice cover. Yes our era rocks it all. John Bonham was truly one of the greats. The Kennedy Center awards with Jason on drums and Heart covering stairway was incredible.

[@GarySchneiderGSonDrums]

That was a great performance by Jason and the band. You could tell it really moved Robert Plant.

[@jayfullerton6981]

Traditional stick handling, much respect ❤, a style not many follow anymore, but a true art it is. One of the best covers! Great work my friend!

[@GarySchneiderGSonDrums]

Thank You!

[@gideoncyrus1464]

[@steevodrums4749]

I love the view from above, especially because I can see your foot pedal too.

[@GarySchneiderGSonDrums]

Thanks for watching and glad you liked the camera angle.

[@ygxx2747]

Wow the tunning from the share and the toms , are just like Bonham's !
Great cover ! Love playing this song all the time on the drums.
And I didn't expected you to use the traditional grip ! Awesome work gramps !

[@GarySchneiderGSonDrums]

I used bigger Tom’s to help - 13, 16 and 18 with 24” kick. I believe Bonham used a 14”/15” rack Tom and a 24/26” kick. Thanks for watching!

Nice…

[@GarySchneiderGSonDrums]

Thanks

[@robertclarkguitar]

Excellent work. Exactly how I played it many gigs. A classic rock staple. Great cover here. That part where he says wind I'd and previous measure I'd do a triplet bass snare hat on the beat it sounded to me like he did that and I would use that often. Great job man. I played 27 years. I miss it but its not easy nowdays no safe place to play without getting noise complaints. Been years since I touch one but maybe I'll try awful ekit. Took up guitar few years ago and that's been amazing. Good luck man.

[@GarySchneiderGSonDrums]

Thanks and good point. It also sounded like he did it on the hats a few times throughout.
