I just want to thank Drumeo to opening my ears to the world of drumming in a way that they'd never been opened. I've been listening to many of these songs you folks have been featuring for decades but without your knowledge, insight, and demonstration I've never really heard what the drummers were doing with their instrument and what that meant for the song as a whole. Thanks so much!

I've never understood how drummers play zildjian when Paiste exists. Those cymbals are as smooth as Steve. If Steve were playing zildjians on this demo it would sound like he was playing on glass Coke bottles.

A lot of these ill comments are from armchair, wanna be drummers. Real drummers wouldn’t cut up other drummers. Or from people that think no one can replace Charlie. EVERYBODY can be replaced, even Charlie. Jordan was the best and he’s got a great mindset. Charlie wanted Steve to replace him. End of comment. Rock on Steve, well done!

1:28 Did he miss when the verse came in? He forgot to switch to the hi hat until a few beats into the verse…

I can see why bands ask Steve Jordan to join them, from the Late Night Band, to John Mayer, and now the Stones. He's a drummer's drummer, a class act and an amazing musician.

Steve is keeping to groove The Rolling Stones still now. Does anyone else succeed to Charlie’s heritage?
