With all due respect… what a pathetic generation of drummers… the other day, a girl who hadn't even heard of Rush, and now some moron who doesn't know one of Iron Maiden's most iconic songs… what a letdown… I think Linkin Park is crap, but I still know those annoying little songs of theirs.

He’s a good drummer, good job. Fuck LINKIN PARK for putting a girl as a front man, you wouldn’t put a man to sing in a woman bad. She can sing it’s just not LINKIN PARK they should’ve made it a new band and gave her a new music

I know there's a lot of hate here, but that's pure social media noise… let's be honest… statistically, at least 80% of the comments are armchair drummers who think they could do better in their own imagination, lol. And to be fair to the guest, he played it in just one take, for the love of Bonham it was just a first pass… His approach isn't bad. The dude has his chops in order… Man, he's getting paid to play the drums, so of course the dude knows ball. But of course, YouTube commenters know better

As a non drummer who loved Maiden, I'm glad he was never in the band. This felt like a chore to him.

Rough approach.. instead of “plowing” through it, it should be playing a long to it and listening!

Realmente donde casi le atinó en notas fue en la parte del solo pero aún así la cago porque perdió el tiempo y ritmo de la canción… No hay que juzgar el tipo se mira muy joven para conocer bandas tan antiguas, realmente hizo un gran esfuerzo al adivinar las notas correctas pero excelente la actitud del chico, por eso está en Linkin Park

I cannot fathom how a rock drummer hasn’t heard this, let alone anything else by Maiden.
