Ok, so this is NOT a solo...

...but going a different direction, I love this!

Watch at the 1:00 min. mark. Cool stuff and off the charts execution.

Back to your regularly scheduled drumset fest...

Thanks for adding that one

Drum Chat already has mine...

Dylan Elise!!

That drum line vid was awesome, X. Watching those always makes me wish I'd gone that direction for one thing and also...what do all those really good drummers do with their talent after drumline/school ends?

A lot of 'em teach, many gig or go pro. Some just go on with life. Kind of like college athletes who work to perfect their skill, and then go on to other things. I can tell you first hand that the discipline it takes to survive in that environment and perform at that level more often than not carries over to other aspects of their lives. Nothing I have ever done was as hard or as rewarding as even one summer in DCI.

Time to rock now though...

Oh, here's a pic of one drum corps alum who has had marginal success in other avenues...
