The Mad Drummer

         I saw this video on youtube, I think it's a really funny video. This is supposed to be a rock band concert, although the matching suits and the guy who presents them kind of kills the vibe. The drummer though, is pretty awesome. He really entertains the crowd, and makes it a lot funnier. Unfortunately, the drummer was fired by the band because they said he was distracting from the guitars. I think that the band should have kept him, because the drummer has over 25 million youtube views, and the band could have become more famous and successful. Be sure to watch at minute 1:25, when he literally unleashes the kraken.

  1. They totally should have kept that drummer. He probably would have been the one to liven up shows make people remember them. What's wrong with having a little fun? If they wanted attention on the guitars then they should have the guitars do something fun and crazy. Based off the views, everyone likes that kind of stuff.

  2. I really don't understand why the band would fire this drummer, he gave spirit to the band. Plus, it doesn't seem like the drummer was distracting the public from the guitars since what the guitar players are doing is also pretty cool. It's also amazing how the drummer could do all these tricks while still playing precisely. I can perfectly see why the controversy came along with the firing of this great drummer.

  3. I think they fired him because they were jealous. If they would have kept him, he would have gave them a lot more attention to the band. In my opinion, I think people would pay to see this guy playing, he is pretty entertaining and without forgetting that he is a pretty good drummer since he can keep the rhythm even though he is doing all those harsh movements.

  4. That was hilarious!! I wonder why did people fired him. It is much better than normal band that plays boring songs. Why can't drums have attention?? That isn't fair. Anyway, it is pretty cool how he keeps the beat even though he is playing like that.

  5. This was really unexpected, I mean the only thing that made the band interesting was the drummer, they really shouldn't have fired him, asides from being original he was actually really good. And I agree the suits and the emcee totally killed the vibe. Hopefully someone else saw his talent and hired him.

  7. Oh My God, this video is so hilarious. It was pretty popular in Facebook. I heard that this drummer got fired because he was grabbing people's attention too much. I think this man is such a talented and great drummer that the fact he got fired is dubious.

  8. I don't get why they fired him. That is also a performance and not only guitarists or the main vocals can do some cool motions or something. Also by performing like that doesn't mess up the music. He still plays it well so why kick him out of the band? Not all drummer have to be serious. I like that guy.

  9. This drummer was improving publicity I don't know why they would fire him. He is hilarious and the fact that he was drawing attention should have been actually helping the band. I definitely would not have fired him.

  10. HAHAHA! Cindy showed me this video and I love it! It's so cool! I don't get why they fired him either. Someone with that talent should be recognized. I think he plays really well and gives a good show! I agree with you. I think that they should have kept him and they would have been more successful.
