Thank you so much Andrew. It was a very emotional day for everyone. I just wanted to give my performance everything I had and make Taylor proud of me. It was an incredible experience playing live to 90,000 people and an honour to have been asked to play for Taylor. Nandi x

It was a beautiful performance. Thank you for everything you give on stage. I am your biggest fan.

What many people don't understand, because she makes it looks so easy, is she's in control of that band for the duration of that song. They are following her - she's not fitting into their playing. The fact you can't hear any difference in this performance between her and any other professional drummer playing this song in front of 80K people tells you all you need to know - she's the real deal. And only 12 years old. Wow. Great reaction.

I think it's because she plays like that's all she needs. Like No food, no water, no housing, just drums. She's Animal's daughter and the Muppets need to make her one.

There’s an upload shot from the crowd as well, and she was singing along the whole time. When she , as you said, flared it up a bit, Pat and the bass player both turned and smiled at her like they couldn’t have been more proud 🥰

HEHE! Yes this is glorious

Hi Andrew, I think the thing that most impresses me about Nandi is that, on stage she's fearless and a real powerhouse drummer, all business and no showboating but, offstage (and off video) she's a normal, sweet 12-year-old girl. There's no pretence, no displays of an inflated ego - Nandi's message of thanks to you demonstrates that perfectly - this girl is grounded and has a close, tight family around her. You really get the feeling that, for Nandi, the only route is up, at whatever she chooses to do and that her family will be there to support her no matter what. I'd hope it's with drumming, I'm pretty certain it will involve music but whatever it is, you just know that Nandi will be supported and nurtured and that she'll be successful.

Nandi today announced on her IG page she has an EP coming out soon

It's hard to believe but from my last live on stage experience in 2004 the only thing I remember was my drum kit with cymbals, my buddies playing their instruments ahead and then just a crowd. Drummers are always kind of hidden/covered 🙂 No reason to fear.

WOW!!!! This was absolutely phenomenal performance by Nandi, i think she definitely made Taylor proud.... RIP Taylor Hawkins....

This was definitely a moment that I was looking forward to and she did not disappoint. If you look closely when she gets on the drum riser by climbing up the side. Rami (keyboards) is raising his arms. lol. When she leaves she uses the steps at the rear of the riser. I cracked up when I saw that, but when you are a nimble 12 year old rock star you can hop the riser any way that you want!

Andrew, I have been a Nandi fan for about 3 years. My Daughters introduced me to her channel. I love your reacts, specially for her videos. You are honest and really point out the small details of her skill, most other react creators aren't "musically" skilled enough to see. (not all of them, and certainly not bad mouthing any of them. They all have there own expertise) I hope you check out her new single, I love it. In my opinion it's only the beginning. Once her voice matures, look out!

So proud to see her grow in age and talent with every video, the future is bright for Nandi, I hope she can cope with that and stay level headed

I foresee Nandy becoming a standard feature of Foo Fighters concert. If she's not there the audience might be disappointed.

I have watched a number of videos where Dave and FF have guest players and Dave continues to keep looking back at their guest while they are playing. However, while watching this, Dave hardly looked back at all. It was as if he had the same confidence that he would if Taylor was playing. She is amazing to watch and listen to. @Andrew Rooney Drums ... would you consider her beyond a prodigy at this point?

She also played with them for Everlong when she was nine, I think, and absolutely killed it. I could close my eyes and not hear any difference from the regular drummer. You should check that out.

She feels it, and that is probably part of the draw, it's like seeing a baby look like an old man. She plays like a rock star because she grew up believing she was one. Like some of us didn't start our mimicking until we were teens but she's been doing it since infancy. Like Tiger Woods in golf.

Shane Hawkins couldn't lay off and sped up at times. Travis Barker was metronomic but also I felt lacked dynamics. Nandi Bushell played like she belonged and had absolutely nothing to prove.

Shane Hawkins certainly did a solid job up there, and yes I guess it is nitpicking for the particular context. It was not my intention to knock Shane Hawkins down, rather it was my intention to say Nandi Bushell looks like the finished product, while SH still has some areas to address -- but again, I acknowledge that it was wrong of me to draw any meaningful conclusions on that score from such a limited and particular set of circumstances.
