It would've also been awesome seeing older drummers using them too, i mean they didn't have the technology like gopro's in the 70's and 80's, but imagine Bonham or Mitchell using something like this, that would've been awesome!

I think the most interesting thing about this is the GoPro 'aspect'. If you're a drummer watching from the perspective of the GoPro on his chest (in his mouth lol) it just tells you so much more about HOW he's doing what he's doing. Very interesting new tech(relatively new). This definitely could be used as a valuable teaching tool. It's twice as illuminating as a camera from behind the drummer even. It just puts you right there on the throne. I want more GoPro drummin vids!

d3tach3d It's unlistenable even on a phone speaker. I can't believe this garbage and misrepresentative production passed GoPro's PR. They only demonstrated how appalling their microphone on this camera is when you strap it to a drummer's mouth guard. But by all means, change the camera angles to different recording devices and don't use the already setup music studio to represent a professional musician that you paid for a promotional video...

If you tune a drum correctly it sounds like this, but if you put your toms back on your drums they cant swing as much as if you hold them. You could use like pearl optimount wich are connected to the rim, so it can swing and doesn't kill the resonance. Sorry for my bad English.

Don't compare him to Travis Barker or Joey Jordison or whomever. Remember, each musician is unique in their style of play.
