Epic Rock Band 2 Gathering
No fancy editing for this bad boy, it's pure unadulterated Rock Band 2 madness. Enjoy Everlong, brought to you by several delicious glasses of Johnny Walker Blue Label:
Is it REALLY 4:17am? Already? Damn, that was an incredible evening. Thanks for coming out everyone!!
UPDATE: Because I'm still super proud of it, and it's one of my favorite Attack of the Show moments ever, I've tossed in a video of me drumming against Raymond Herrera of Fear Factory from three or four years ago. I think I was twelve. Good times...
And for the record, Raymond is still one of the nicest guys we've ever had on the show. Ever.

I love how serious Kevin looks playing the drums but next time show your score so we can be in Awe of your greatness
Dear god man! You shredded those drums. I agree a score would have been awesome to see, but from the sound of it, you did pretty damn well!
Kevin has shown us how well he plays the skins. But can he play the drums?
Hi Kevin I just read an article on the net stating that theres a 1 million dollar lawsuit filed against Attack of the Show because some women got angry about being called courgars. I myself find it to be full of holes because I recall plenty of news anchors using the term. Some people are just born without senses of humor I guess.
Holy hell that drumming was epic. I can't wait to get Rock Band 2 and sing some Everlong. I'm torn on which system to get it on though -- the only other person I ever play with has it for 360 and I have it for PS3. So do I give up all the DLC I've bought and get RB2 on 360 so I actually have someone to play with? Or do I just get it for PS3 again and have to settle for playing online with people I can't see or hear? Hmmph. Decisions. decisions.
oh yeah nerd high fives. Nice job guys. Cant wait for RB2
BLUE LABEL! *slap* Lmfao. Me and my friends were doing the exact same at 4:30 est. Alcohol and RB2 is a very nice mix. Take that neighbors!!!
"But can he play the drums?"
Have you never seen him play? He's pretty good.
Should have shown the score though =\
oh man, i was up all night with friends playing rb1 last night.... i NEED rb2! why isnt it sunday already dammit
and here comes the drum solo...BOOM goes the dynamite! You rock, man. I spent the early morning watching a hurricane inch its way toward me (it's almost here now [adios interweb])
Nice Drumming!
OK, I'm pissed -- according to Best Buy's website, the 360 version of RB2 comes out tomorrow - but the PS3 version doesn't come out until OCTOBER 19TH?! WTF? That SUCKS. :( I don't want to spend another $200 on Rock Band 2 AND lose all my DLC on top of it... Gah, I really hate video games. Ridiculous.
I'm really impressed with the drumming. Had no idea.
I see that Kevin is very talented, why doesn't he save the world already
Nice video update there as well! Now you just need to throw in the Coheed & Cambria video and complete the trifecta! :)
Wow man, I saw the Coheed & Cambria video before this one. Before watching it, I wasn't really sure what to expect from K-Per. I'm really impressed with your skills for not being a full-time musician. I've been playing guitar for about 12 yrs. now, and I pretend like I'm good at the drums but you definitely have me beat. I really think you have potential, and should keep at it!
Holy $%#! You are effin' wicked on the drums, Kevin. I'm a drummer myself (not nearly as good as you), and you simply impress my balls off (no homo).
Holy hell Kevin!!! I didn't know you could play like that. That was awesome, I really think you held own my friend.
Rock Band looks like fun with a group of friends, but they need to do something about the "clickity clack" of the drumsticks hitting the pads- it needs to be made out of a material that you can't hear, so that all you hear is the drums in the game. That clicking would drive me crazy if I were to play.
Not that I would, because A.) I don't know anyone else, so would have to play alone and what fun is that? and B.) I don't like any of the music in the Guitar Hero or Rock Band games to date.
Damn man, do work!
1st vid : Looks like you guys really had a great time. Great song pick, Everlong. I love the Foo Fighters. What was the score?
2nd vid : Man, that was wicked!. I didn't know you could play the drums that well! You definitely held your own against Raymond... he's faster, but you show much better technique. Nice double bass action there for someone so modest, LOL! Great show of skills, indeed. And I love those TAMA kits! Is it yours? Starclassic Maple?
Anyway, really looking forward to having you & Olivia back on AOTS Monday. Have a great weekend!
