High-speed drumming — what moves, what doesn’t

YouTube is a great repository for drum solos, so you can try to keep up with Terry Bozzio, Todd Sucherman et al.

Mike Mangini has one of the most amusing drum solos on YouTube — a performance with Steve Vai’s band in which his facial expressions really sell it. Little wonder Discovery sought him out with a high-speed camera. The result is fascinating. You wouldn’t believe what a snare drum and cymbal go through.
