Since I've been drumming for 15 years, studied percussion in college, and played semi-professionally until last year...I'll go with yes, but who really knows.

Edit: I just watched the video. It's definitely a yes now.

I'll go with no. I play drums but it's a very bad drum set and I just play by ear. He's good, I didn't know he played drums.

Yes, he is good, but i have been playing drum since i was 7 almost 10 years now.

and drum techniques have advanced a whole lot since then.

No they haven't. Drum techniques don't advance :|. The double bass pedal has been around for decades. That's nothing new.

The only things that are different are the quality of materials used to make shells, heads, cymbals, and maybe hardware, as well as the advent of triggers and other electronic augmentations...none of which have anything to do with drumming techniques.

I bet Stevie would own you at Guitar Hero though.

Stevie now has been drumming for over 50 years, studied composition and music theory at the University of Southern California, and been playing drums professionally at least for over 40 years. Those would be his qualifications.

Being blind is something of a limitation, however.

Teh bass pedal is my ultimate weakness!!!!
