Jeeeeeezo!!!

He's better than any adult drummer I've seen on a video site, some adults need a reality check when they think they have the skills!.

It is really amazing what some kids can do. I saw another one on youtube awhile back of this kid who plays the piano. I think he was 5 and he was playing some music that he learned for his mom.

Anyways, it would be interesting to see where this kid ends up in 10 or 15 years

The thing is, there's a lot that goes on with the brain in kids. I know when you're really young (like 1-2), a lot of your mental "specialisations" occur (ie. your brain begins to adapt to its surrounds to deal with those types of things). An example being we can easily tell the difference between thousands of different faces, although they're very much alike. Animal faces (monkies for example) have just as much variety as ours, but we can't tell the difference because our brains become specialised in human face recognition.

Anyway, my point is, I wonder when that stops? If it continues for a good few more years, perhaps a kid like this can specialise his brain to be more adept at that kinda of hand eye coordination than any adult could? So later on, drum coordination would be so in-build into his brains processes, that he could do some mad things?

Bit of a tangent. Ignoring all that. Crazy skills!!!

Edit: Almost forgot too. Here's the thing though. Will he be able to outdo Tony Royster Jr, who's considered an elite prodigy? You decide! Here's him when he was 12!

He's great for a 4yr old, but a long way to go before I'd call him a great drummer.

How do you even know he is playing at all? He might just be hitting random things like a toddler would do, then they just put some music over the video.

Umm... Higgins...

Fallout is a musician. He would have been able to identify this. I am a drummer, I would have picked this up as well. So zippit.

that's really cool. I wish him all the luck that he finds a good band when he's older.

@Higgins
Just stop with the trolling



He's got some great talent there, just hope he doesn't lose interest as he gets older.

I picked up my first Sega Mega Drive controller when I was three. Consequently, I'm pretty darn good at the first two Sonic the Hedgehogs. Didn't help me with other games though.


Since the other one was scaring you guys so much...
