Pound for pound the most disciplined drummer out there, I honestly can't think of another drummer that can tackle as many genres even verging on the extreme as adeptly and fluidly as this guy, even Vinnie.

It's really sad to see all these drummers saying "oh this makes me not want to play ever again" or "I'll never be this good". Drummers like this should inspire you, they should make you want to get better.

Man, Thomas, you just blow my mind dude, you are definitely (in my opinion) the "BEST" drummer on the bloody Planet. I just love your drumming, your style of drumming, your talent and your personality. God Bless you my friend. I am very curious about your sticks as well, I think I may purchase a pair of them when I have a few dollars saved up. I have many health dysfunctions and so I'm on a very small disability each month, and so I'm quite poor. I play for my church now, but I have been drumming for over 40 yrs now, 20 semi-pro and professionally. But, I think you are just great man, talented but a good sense of humor as well, that's awesome. Take care Thomas and I hope to buy a pair of your sticks soon :)

Hi Thomas! My name is Cesar, I'm from Brazil. I'm a drummer and I have a physical disability (I do not have my right leg) and I play drums in the hardcore style. I would like to thank how much you have insisted on developing techniques and practicing with more love for the instrument. I hope I can upload a video with my sound. You are without doubt the best teacher I have ever seen!

YO TOM!!! Love the ‘bits and pieces’ you add to your kit to give you your unique sound combinations ... GOD KNOWS where you get your speed from! I have a severely damaged right wrist that has had 7 rather bone crushing operations on (The initial injury happened before I started playing drums) so my ‘technique’ has always been compromised. The only way I can describe your scarey technique is that you must be a Sith Lord! As Palpatine said to Anakin Skywalker ‘The dark side is a pathway to many abilities that some consider to be unnatural!!’ .... Your amazing to watch mate!! Keep it up!!! 👊🏻👊🏻

So good to see how drumming has evolved, particularly in the "bar" of excellence. The average drummer today has sooo much more to rely upon than when I came up in the '80s, I remember renting a copy of a Steve Gadd video, renting a small t.v./v.c.r., and setting it up next to my drums, no headphones, and learning the stuff. Very cool to see this!
