BTW: I didn't notice it the first time I watched the video but the lead guitarist is playing a Fender Jazzmaster and not a Gibson Les Paul like Steve Lukather did on the original song. You almost can't hear the difference which says a lot for him. 👏👏👏

Jeff Porcaro , Steve Luke and David Paich would all be proud of you. Thankyou for keeping great music alive.

I was a pretty good drummer back in the 80's (high school & college) and I couldn't match Porcaro. Looking back I think he's probably one of the most underrated drummers there ever was.

⁠@@SeanOHanlonin no way is Pocaro underrated…wikipedia…"arguably the most highly regarded studio drummer in rock from the mid-'70s to the early '90s" and said that "it is no exaggeration to say that the sound of mainstream pop/rock drumming in the 1980s was, to a large extent, the sound of Jeff Porcaro

never let that drummer go

Thank you to all the parents❣️👏 Thank you to EACH Low Darts band member and to every adjunct band performer contributor! Thank you, Sean, for being the glue on the incredibly intricate drum beats - to Luke on his cool and amazing complicated electric bass runs; to Sebastian on super nimble piano playing fingers; to Jonas, who is off the charts on his innovative, and exciting “rocking” lead guitar; to Sydney - whose voice has become even more golden - even in just a few years; to Kevin - and each and every one of the brass players who make their deliveries SO unique - adding volumes. Thank you, Colman - for all that you have accomplished with the help of your parents and Fairfield music teachers - for the production- recording, piano, vocals, and arrangements over the past 4 years -especially during “lockdown” - and thank you especially for being my grandson. God bless you all and may you keep cranking out these terrific classic rock songs - essential for both the old folks and new folks alike❣️ GKT

They're pretty damn good playing and singing by themselves with recorded accompaniment but I'd like to know if they can sound as good playing as a group. A sterile environment for making music is one thing but music is always meant to be an interactive experience... player with player and musicians and an audience. I'm not impressed. If they can do this all together, at the same time, then maybe they'll have something. Otherwise, this is not impressive at all despite what we're hearing. It sounds very sterile to me.
