MEINL DRUM FESTIVAL SERIES - CHRIS COLEMAN - DRUM SOLO

You need Flash to view this contents.

this clip features a 5 minute long drum solo by chris coleman. during his performance at our festival chris assumed that his time was up after 30 minutes already. however, he had a total of 45 minutes available. luckily chris was cool about it and played two totally improvised drum solos. one of them you can see here now.
chris can also be heard on prince's new record 20TEN which is released worldwide one of these days now.
enjoy this clip and stay tuned for more.

    Whoops!?? Sorry for the waste of bandwidth...I got my answer at the end of the video...I hadn't watched it to the end before posting.
    Thanks for the videos, very informative...I think I might change from using S*****n's/Z******n's to Meinl's..they are really sounding great!!
    I am really digging the sound of the Byzance extra dry crashes/rides!

    Thanks..."G"

    Ich kann mir nicht helfen aber ein paar von seinen Becken sind komisch angewinkelt oder? Kann mir einer sagen warum?

    maybe you guys can make a little video series with chris (and/or others) with interviews regarding practice advices, tips on patterns and such?
