IRON MAIDEN MEDLEY - Powerslave - Drum Cover

Музыка

So much fun! It won't be long til someone says "Hey man, Nicko doesn't use double bass" and I say "I know he doesn't, what the fuck was he thinking!?"
I can't help but play Maiden with my drumming perspective. I try to capture a lot of the things that discerning drummers may hope I catch but also leave room for improv.
Enjoy!
