My daughter's 6 year old friend playing drums... amazing

5F6-A · 04-20-2011, 02:30 AM

he is self taught and his style really reminds me of John Bonham's!!

YouTube - Corban the drummer boy 6 yrs old

Northern England's supply of good musicians is not drying up

El_Greco · 04-20-2011, 06:11 AM

He could join Manowar right now. That's pure powermetal right there.

lespaul01 · 04-20-2011, 06:22 AM

nice work... heavy hitter for sure..

5F6-A · 04-20-2011, 07:19 AM

He is really sweet, nicely behaved, even a little bit shy but when he sits at the drumkit..my goodness, he hits hard!!

sapounov · 04-20-2011, 07:21 AM

Great !

Toogy · 04-20-2011, 07:22 AM

Wow! that is pretty impressive for 6 years old and self taught!

Ledheadforlife · 04-20-2011, 09:44 AM

Good stuff, reminds me of that snippet during song remains of Jason Bonham. If that kid sticks with it, he could go all the way!

5F6-A · 04-20-2011, 12:17 PM

I am sure he will stick at it

benjammin420 · 04-20-2011, 12:29 PM

ask him if he wants to join my band

***Led Zep Fan*** · 04-20-2011, 01:36 PM

The kid has talent!

coldsteal2 · 04-20-2011, 01:41 PM

boy just wait till he is in HS, by then he will be
an expert

5F6-A · 04-20-2011, 02:27 PM

I knew him from coming home to birthday parties and stuff like that, and very good friend of my 6 year old daughter but I must admit that I was really shocked when I saw him poundering down with such authority...

Fletch · 04-20-2011, 04:20 PM

Very kool but my advice is to get him an instructor. He's doing some things wrong and those will be hard habits to break later. As good as he is now self-taught, he will be incredible with some professional guidance.

5F6-A · 04-27-2011, 04:59 PM

hahah don't fret!

snaredrum · 04-27-2011, 07:00 PM

the boy's got talent though. keep him at it, and don't let him near any jazz records - voila! next Bonham!

5F6-A · 05-06-2011, 02:30 PM

haha.. some jazzers have a steady hand too but yeah... I know what you mean!

Lurko · 05-06-2011, 03:08 PM

Great! Now someone PLEASE make sure that kid is wearing earplugs.

Why is that "amazing"?

The kid has potential, for sure, but I don't see it as any other superlative.

Let him be trained and see if he still wants to play after he grows up some.
