And Justice For All (Rock Band Expert Drums 5 Star)

read this first please:

My new top score on this is 390,950; this puts me in the top 10 for this song on Xbox Live, and that's only my 4th time ever playing it, lmao, as of Feb. 6th, 2008

people are asking me the same questions over and over, so reading this should help answer a lot of the generic ones. Still, I appreciate the comments/views and stuff, don't get me wrong.

Check out the Video Responses to this; they're some other videos i've done, hell, check out the rest of my videos if you want to. I do music videos for a part-time-professional job, so that's what most of my work on here is.

so yeah, this is me playing "And Justice For All" on Rock Band on Expert Drums, getting the #2 top score for this song on Xbox Live leaderboards as of November 21st. (my gamertag = sskitzzo)

I wanted to have the shot of my foot in there also for the foot pedal as a seperate angle, but the camera's being a bitch, so I just said screw it.

This is still with my shitty set; i'll be getting a new one shortly, hopefully, but there are noticable pad misses in this video. Only my 2nd time ever playing this also, so there's still room for improvement in that area too.

By the way, if you want to know how to do the "notes on the screen" effect; There's a lot of tutorials on the web for this kind of stuff with After Effects, and the best site i've ever been to for them (which i visit frequently) is www.videocopilot.net ; they've got a ton of tutorials, and even a basic training series of videos for the After Effects beginner, and all of it's free. and no, i'm not getting paid to plug thier site, i really just reccomend it hahaha

And yes, I play drums in real life, have been for 4+ years, so the people going on about "play a real instrument", no, sorry, I do play real drums.

The tape is on my drums because the drums were faulty out of the box; the tape holds the pad closer to the sensor inside of it, which allows for more sensitive hits for the time being, until I get it replaced.

As for my "bad fills", realize two things; This drumset is fucked up, so i'm not really trying my best here, and this is my second time playing or hearing this song, EVER, so it's not as if I know where the fills are going to perfectly be (hell, this is pretty much sightread).

I mean, honestly, i'm trying to get a good score on the song, not play it like i'm at a rock concert or something, but even that's hard when 90% of the misses in this video are due to shitty pads/pedal.

FINALLY, my grip is fine for playing this game; play on this set before you say that, playing on this set is NOTHING like playing on a real drumset in terms of size, height, feel, movements needed, or anything else.
