A Kick-Ass drum solo by the Fastest Drummer in the World

It builds up towards the ends so stick with it!

Drum solo by Mike Mangini during a Steve Vai show.

Mike Mangini proves once again that technical proficiency on an instrument does not mean that your music will be interesting or good. Upvote for the first 15 seconds with awesome double kick and a groove that could have developed into something worth listening to. My recommendation: skip the middle three minutes and get right to the end if you want to see incredible speed that's the result of an uncountable number of hours of dedicated practice and still not give a shit. Mangini should put together a tour with Michael Angelo Batio. Match made in heaven.

/\ Like he said.

Watch the first 15 seconds, then skip to about 2.50 and watch from there. Middle bit is just a mess, sounds like a drum kit free falling in a confined space with a large amount of drum sticks clattering around.

The speed that he hits one of those drums with 1 hand.....holy shit.

Pardon my lack of technical jargon.. My knowledge of drums is that i can play expert level on rock band, and the only thing i know is that i can't achieve the speed with two hands that he does with one! I can't even manage the main drum roll of "run to the hills" with both hands Thus ends my knowledge of drums!
