    That breakdown is always my favorite part of this song to play. Makes the people who aren't looking directly at me think I'm that good at double bass. Props to Mike for killing with a single kick.

      What do you mean slept on? He won the AP award amongst drummers that are ten times better than him as far as skill goes. He's in a band that's extremely popular and is killing it right now so I wouldn't really say he's slept on. I say it's the complete opposite.

      Get a thick snare drumhead, a remo emperor x or a evans heavyweight. Tune the buttom head tight and the tophead pretty tight too, for that crack. You hear al lot of snares, his snare are pretty tight too but not choked. I bought myself some puresound snarewires, they give you so much more depth than stockwires.

    I came here to watch this after seeing a comment on twitter. The girl said she loved Pierce the veil but hated Mike because he couldn't fix his issues. This, of course made me mad because I still think Mike is awesome. I know people are allowed to have their opinions but they should atleast keep them to yourself. Mike is a person with emotions and feelings. Just because you don't like him doesn't mean everyone else hates him. What angered me more was no one stood up for Mike instead of the four people who liked it they chose to let the person say that about Mike. Shure things happened but Mike is cool. He is and will always be one of my favorite drummers.
    I'm sorry about the rant I was just frustrated.

      It's all sixteenth note based, so slow the song down and listen carefully to each voice on the kit. Write it out if it makes it easier. Be sure to account for each sixteenth note.

    • @chunkysucks
      @chunkysucks 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      they are most likely different size. why two floor toms insted of rack toms? for me I would have two foor toms and one rack tom just purely to have the ride closer and more comfortable, but he might just find it more comfortable and ergonomic to have extra floors instead of a rack.

    • @draven4293

    • @aandyperezz8602
      @aandyperezz8602 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      he has two floor toms so he has more room up front. the sizes of the toms are as follows:
      rack: 13x8
      floor 1: 16x16
      floor 2: 18x16
      also, some people are just more comfortable like that.

      @Mr-rj9dg 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      For some drummers, they take their foot COMPLETELY off the pedal instead of just lifting it up, more comfortable for them, as for me not so much because I like to adjust how open my hi-hat is or how tightly closed it is with my foot. Every drummer plays differently
