An amateur drummer, interpreting progressive rock songs for just the fun of it... ;)
Hello all! Thanks for watching my videos... Drumming has been my favorite hobby for 30 years. Due to my professional career in astrophysics, I do not play as much as I would like now but I used to be in bands about everywhere I lived. I'm originally from Quebec so as a lot of people there, my favorite music is progressive rock. As you might have guessed by now, my all-time favorite band is Rush. I first learned about them around 1980 and then Moving Pictures came out... That was it. I had been playing the drums for several years prior to that but that album changed everything...

My drumkit is a Tama Starclassic Performer with birch shells done in a nice indigo blue finish (Toms: 8,10,12,13,14,15,16, BD:22x18, Snares: 14 x 5.5, 12 x 3.5). I also have a Roland V-drums Session set, arranged as a back kit. My actual set of cymbals is the 2112 Sabian Paragon set, limited edition of 30 around the world. I have all kind of other gadgets too, namely wind chimes, other pads, temple blocks, cowbells, triangles, etc. More, always more! The total cost of the kit is estimated at around $18K. To enter in the center of the kit, I move one of the rack arms of the electronic set, which is kept a bit loose... ;)

My list of favorite drummers is extremely long but here's some: Neil Peart, Mark Zonder, Danny Carey, Mike Portnoy, Bill Bruford, Phil Collins, John Bonham, Gavin Harrison, Stewart Copeland, Billy Cobham, Buddy Rich, Gene Krupa, Dave Weckl, Simon Phillips, Nick D'Virgilio, Scott Rockenfield, etc.

NEWS (11/13/08): Due to the copyright war with UMG, I will not continue with these videos. It's too time-consuming for taking the risk of having them being removed for satisfying some outdated laws. I really regret this and I'll explore other ways in the future but for now, nothing new will appear here... :(

No, I didn't get all my videos taken away. Every one of them is still online. I just modified my site. I have, as Astro has, just chosen not to DO anymore. It's a waste of my time. I'm an amateur with a completely unrelated job and a family and I'm not going to try to be charitable just to have these assweepays take my stuff off.

Pauliewanna got all of his videos taken away also =/

Now, the bad news: I have just been informed by YouTube that my dispute for YYZ was unsuccessful and that it has been removed for good. I expect about another 20 videos to go through the same result. This is coming from UMG.... This really sucks... So, this is probably it for me here... I do not plan to spend hours and hours on learning these songs properly, editing the videos and all for nothing. I'll keep the current videos here as much I can but nothing new will be put on YouTube. Sorry.... :(
