Yeah, Eriisa, I'm having that problem.  I just let it run out a bit, then drag the indicator (whatever it's called) all the way back to the left.  It takes it a while to catch up, and I have a flawless performance. 

Great stuff everybody.  Thanks for the Peart stuff.  He is totally phenomenal.  I have one question,  Where's the sweat?

Does anyone else have the videos hang and skip while playing. It doesn't do it on YouTube, only the embedded ones on here.

Lisa A: I'm a self taught drummer.I learned to play by putting on the headphones and playing the complete 2112 album over an over.Peart is a God.Here is a rare treat I've been saving for an occasion such as this

Nirvana: I did some research but came up empty.I they weren't done recently than he should be considered a video pioneer.

Eriisa:
DTV (Disney Television) music videos
did a similar thing with this one:
Bobby Lewis ~ Tossin' and Turnin'

Eriisa: what I was actually looking for at the time was videos of Bobby Freeman, but the quality of those I found was awful and I thought that one was fun.

Nirvana: It reminded me of Fantasia, but I'm not sure. Thanks for looking!

Eriisa: I looked further into it, it possibly was, but Disney put it to music as part of a series of DTV (Disney Television) music videos. Maybe someone else knows?

Nirvana: That video is familiar but I can't place it. Isn't that from a movie???

*I will happily do the same for any pawns or brainknights.

ScarletRose: Yes she,s great! I like her movements, it is kinda like sign language only different lmbo and she is easy to follow. I remember her appearing on New Faces.
Yep she could have been a big star there Jim it is a shame.
I have a double album of her,s Texas from way back, my dad said at the time he bought it for me but I think it was for him really lmbo!

TexasToest: i guess I have a short attention span.Private lessons may be required

Tigger: I'm happy to hear my comment was recieved as it was intended.I enjoy shooting the breeze with you folks about the music and artists,I 'd hate to lose that.

This guy is quite a talent,he could put percussionists out of work! He should team up with Bobby McFerrin

Tigger:  Whew!  Can you imagine?  My fingers just don't move that fast!  Re:  Canon....who is under that hat?  I think I want to marry him.  If it's not a him, I might change my thinking on a few things.  Whew!  Excellent.  Andy McKee - what an interesting style.  Really nice sound, though.  I wonder how he tunes his guitar.  I figure it's an open tuning.  Very nice.  You've been busy today.  

I just love everybody sharing their favorite videos.  I'm hearing/seeing more new stuff than I even knew was out there.  This will broaden horizons.

Jason:  Who IS that?  Tell us something about it....or me anyway.  I may be the only ignorant one here.  That is wild!  Haha!

Andersp:  I love accordian music.  I've done a little piece on Flaco Jimenez, who plays the squeeze box with a lot of Texas rock musicians.  The accordian is prominent in the music of Mexico, and I live down here where a lot of Latinos are playing their tunes.  Our music scene down here is often a melding of styles.  Thanks for the post.

Mousetrap:  Oh!  I must be about your dad's age.  I love Kate Bush too!!!!  And, that's one of my favorite songs of hers.  She was once married to Peter Gabriel, wasn't she?

Lisa A:  Thank you so much for the Satriani piece.  I haven't heard anything of him in a loooooooong time.  It's all my own fault too.  Think I'll get out and buy some of his stuff.

Jim Dandy:  I gave instructions for embedding over the weekend.  Did you miss them?  Would you like private lessons?  I totally agree with your wish that we continue to discuss music, new and old, of whatever genre and media.  That is the great benefit of this board to me.  You'll note that I always comment, and offer what I can.  Maybe if we set an example, others will follow suit.  

Tigger again:  Spot on!  Satriani is absolutely amazing.
