I wish I could have a one on one for 1 hour with Mike teaching me. I like his natural style. You always look like I feel when I am on my kit. HAPPY! EVERY drummer should at least take that with them. Thanks Mike
Well damn, here I am 3 years after being this and not knowing a thing about Steve Jordan or the JM3 and taking so much in from Mr Johnston. Steve and John's music changed my way of playing and way of listening to music drastically. Funny how things come back around.
i am not talking about the loops that mike uses AT ALL. I am talking about the music used in the front of the video with the Sam Ash logo, that is a canned loop from Garageband, my point is that sam ash should use one pf their many musical employees to write something instead of using canne stuff that is all. no slag on mike at all. it was slag in the store. i guess that wasn't clear
DUDE THIS CAT IS WORTH A MILLION BUCKS I JUST GOT THROUGH SHEDDING THIS ODD METER STUFF THAT HE'S TALKING PRECISELY ABOUT DOGG I CANNOT BELIEVE WHAT HE'S SAYING IT'S EXACTLY THE SAME CONCEPTS
To be clear, I am not talking about any of the loops in Mike's lessons, he does his own thing, I have great respect for him. I was talking about the music that opens the video over the Sam Ash Logo - they are using free loops out of Garageband. My point is, that Sam ash employs a ton of capable musicians in their stores and they still choose to use canned music. That, in my opinion is lame, what maybe worse is that perhaps they themselves never even thought about it. No Disrespect to Mike
I'm sorry but I think you have a fundamental problem Mike. When you are playing you actually look like you are really ENJOYING yourself, no pouting, no grimacing, nothing, surely that can't be right ; ) Great job!
At 9.10 he says: 'we are not meant to dance' This is in my opinion NOT true! When a drummers play's a groove you don't want anything else than dance!!! In your head or with your body. I think he was wrong there...
is anyone else disappointed that a music store is using garageband music loops? Good video, great player, just lame they they support and employ how many thousands of musicians but still uses canned music. I call lame
If there was more guys like Mike, the world would be a better place!
Dang, this guy's joy and enthusiasm is awesome! It doesn't hurt that he's a great drummer!
Awesome! Great drummer & great person!
After watching this video. Mike is clearly on another level.
I learned more from his time signature explanation than ANY of my teachers that I've had throughout middle school, high school, and my drum teacher..
I smile when Mike hits the bell ride.
Man I just learned how to make those Sagat from Street Fighters drum rhythms. Love it!

Versatile, good, and flowing start to end. man oh man
Great video. I hope to see you live at a clinic some day.

Mike just seems like the most down to earth guy ever ... great drummer even greater guy.
Eloquent, diplomatic, honest, great teacher. Wish the camera guy stayed on the talent.

no slag on mike at all. it was slag in the store. i guess that wasn't clear
What kind of hi-hat is that!???
No way did i just watch 16minutes of this? Felt like a second
Toby from The Office can really play.
He sounded so much better when he was on DW's !!

if you are putting a drum clinic in "a music store" on video... why don't you mics to those drums to make it sound at least decent? :/

3:31 = everyone thinking "WHAT THE F***"

Great job!
Premiere
I laughed so hard at that I jizzed. :)
he looks like he's having a good time with the intro song, however he attacks the drums so hard, everything sounds harsh without any varied dynamics.
+jay tee The setup with the microphones wasn't the best at the time. Mistakes happen!
everyone there is like WTF!
10:36 'Whatever...' :P
This guy is definitely an xNFJ.
9 people have taken lessons from Justin Bieber ! How the fuck you can dislike this ???
He made all those loops. Settle.
At 9.10 he says: 'we are not meant to dance' This is in my opinion NOT true! When a drummers play's a groove you don't want anything else than dance!!! In your head or with your body. I think he was wrong there...
It was a joke, as in white people aren't meant to dance.
is anyone else disappointed that a music store is using garageband music loops? Good video, great player, just lame they they support and employ how many thousands of musicians but still uses canned music. I call lame
kotzholes getrommel!
its not danceable but all the white will fall down LOL!!!
I'll take the "pocket" playing of howard grimes any day of the week over this guy...
was bist du denn für ein affe?
alright Mike how about playing some music? we're sick and tired of your stupid speed fills... can you play some rhythmic stuff? that would be nice...
your an idiot that is rhythmic try looking at his channel and other stuff he has done to understand how amazing he is
He probably thinks Lars Ulrich is the best drummer alive.
