The Godmother Of Drumming Plays “Down With The Sickness”

- Have you ever found yourself making assumptions about someone before you’ve met them? What about before seeing them play drums? From assuming she plays ‘quieter’ instruments to not being taken seriously before an audition, Dorothea Taylor has heard it all when it comes to judging a book by its cover. She’s here to prove that you can’t always accurately assess a drummer - or anybody - by how they look. Check out Dorothea’s cover of “Down With The Sickness” by Disturbed!
Drummers come in all shapes, sizes, ages, and ethnicities. “No matter how good you are, how old you are, we’re all still part of a drumming family.” - Dorothea Taylor

She probably complains about her neighbors' silence.
Nice one
This comment needs more likes :/
🤣
Their sound of silence?
Lol
Doctor: your grandma is sick
Grandson: how sick, doctor?
The grandma:
LOL most underrated comment here
Yes
She wicked sick
@top.comment.god
Rip lol
What’s better than watching her on a screen, is having her show up to your 8th grade band class and giving you drum lessons. Changed my life and how I play even today. Still have the drum pad and sticks I got to keep.
No freakin way!! That is sooo cool! Love that
That's amazing! What a wonderful experience for you! I'm so glad you were able to learn so much from her and so cool you still have the pads and sticks from then. That's such a great memory for you!!
NOW THATS FUKIN COOL !!!!
That would of been great I gave up drumming sold all my to cheap to a guy for his daughter I was thinking of helping pass on the love of drums over money
Wow iconic. She’s awesome. Maybe I should get me a kit since I got neither space nor skill for a drum set for now 🤔
My grammy played the drums too. I will never forget the absolute shock as a 5 year old kid seeing grandma hop on the drum set and tear it up.
my grandad who passed 5 years ago was also a drummer, ofc male drummer etc pretty normal but he was 80 listening to disturbed, bush, tool, and others which is just strange considering his age haha but he always told me that he didnt care for the lyrics the song etc he cared the drums, because according to him in the modern age drums didnt matter anymore nothing special is being produced. so he only listened to real drummers no matter what genre. Also he introduced me into drumming when i was 8 and im still doing it. Amazing mentor.
@@leflyxdvdw grandad ❤️
Mine, too. She was a marching drummer when she was 12 back in cuba
You're so lucky
"Oh, I'm sorry. Were we being too loud?"
"Not loud enough, son."
Love it 😂😂
My reaction was to remove him from the audition as if i was undercover boss, who taught you how to rock??😭😂
If it's too loud then you're too old.
Lmfao
HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHHAHA
Coincidentally her grandson is really good at crocheting
Lmao
That’d actually be irony too. Because it’s the opposite of what you’d expect.
justin king 😂
Fuck I burst out and spilled my drink reading that lmaoooo
You jealous Snowflake?
She’s played for 50 years and the amount of control and discipline really shows. I have a lot of respect for this woman
This right there. This is CONTROL.
Something a lot of drummers lack today. And it's the most important thing a drummer can have!
@@0x777also what people don’t understand about Lars Ulrich. People would want him to constantly play like Mike portnoy when it wouldn’t fit any Metallica song
My dad's still drumming at 70. He can't go as long because of his arthritis but he loves it and he says he'll play until he can't hold the sticks anymore.
Duct tape!
Ok, you win this time CZcams recommendations
RedScarProductions Ditto!!
Right on!
RedScarProductions 😂 exactly
For once daaaamn lol
Right!? That was sick. I loved it.
"Grandma, how did you lose your hearing?"
"By being a badass, sonny"
The right response is "What?"
Punctuation is *key*
Lol
@Graustreif Elvanien r/Woosh
It's so fucked up, and she use to smack me for wearing a hat in her house...
This. This is the video that got me into drumming, was at a very low point in my life, 26 and worried I was "too old to start" because I wouldn't be as good as someone who's played since early childhood. 5 months later and I'm loving it! So thank you, Granny Drummer, this video always brings a huge smile to my face 🤘🏻💕
Never too late. I've been drumming since I was a teenager, but played it kind of safe. I joined a metal band at 40 and now I'm trying to get my feet as fast as I can - and it's working, at 40! Never too late!
Hey man, I’m 26 and looking into it as well, how’ve you liked it so far? Any tips for a potential fellow beginner?
@@joeschmoe2697 Find a place where you can practice happily without disturbing neighbours. Or invest in a good electronic drums. I loved to playe drums, but I needed to stop when I started moving between cities, and it was impossible to have my drum set in certain spaces.
@@joeschmoe2697I’m 31 and I just started 3 weeks ago. I ended up trying Drumeo 30 days free and I went from never having picked up drumsticks before, to working on playing enter sandman. I haven’t learned it yet, but that’s a giant leap from never playing before! I would give Drumeo a shot fr, it has highly exceeded my expectations!
Never too late. I'm 30 and teaching myself violin, drums, cretan lyra and harmonica. Making music is a gift of being a human being and i intend to enjoy it! Be yourself, we need that in this world ♡
My grand daughter ( on the spectrum ) was worried that 'girls don't play drums' She taught herself this by watching the video over and over. Tonight was her 21st birthday party and she played this and a Baby Animals song..full out on her electric kit...she stunned her friends and their families and it was wonderful. Dorothea's message has changed her attitude and given her so much confidence. Thank you so much. Grateful Nan.
“Yo, pray for my grandma, she’s sick af”
I hope its curable;)
She don’t need your damn prayers
Tell me: is she up, or down with the sickness?
@@injestpowerviolence8519 r/whoosh
I hope she gets well and better soon
It's good to see these algorithms are getting their shit together.
Days after any Holiday get together: _"It's good to see these shits are getting their algorithm together"_
Facts. Hahaha
HEY, BIXBy i want more of this in my feed !
🤣🤣🤣
My algo always got its shit together, including this. 😂
Being able to get down with the sickness with the level of calm and cool as Dorothea should be something we all aspire towards
I'm a 43 year old mother, grandmother, aunty, sister etc and I'm also a drummer. I've been playing since I was 13. I also play bass and electric guitars and have been for the same amount of time as the drums. I love the words you said at the end Dorothea. Ultimately it doesn't matter who you are, where you're from, what your ethnicity is or by what you look like, people shouldn't judge by the cover of a person. You slayed those drums.
Rock on!!
She's the type to barge into your room and yell at you to turn that shit up.
🤘😝
🤣👍
d e a d💀
I know they're the best😝🤘
🤘🤣
-How is your grandma?
-She fine, she's down with the sickness...

HAHAHAAAA
As a 52 year old woman who rocks out to bands like this while I wash dishes I find this so awesome! Hopefully young people won't immediately judge and ignore us ladies, you never know who we might be inside!
She makes this look so easy, which is a true sign of a master
Imagine her coming through with freshly baked chocolate chip cookies and the meanest drum solo you've ever heard, what an absolute legend.
This made me chuckle lol and I absolutely love that mental picture you gave me 😂
Thank you for that and I hope you have a great rest of your day
😂😂😂
I was thinking a bowl of the Strawberry bonbons. 😂
Everyone likes a good drummer and chocolate chip cookies
metal grannies always make the best cookies and the best beats! Rock on granny!
Just imagine someone telling the hard-core professional drummer "My grandma could do your job"
And totally sans the snark and sarcasm...lol
Hahhahahahahha
Just imagine someone telling the hard-core pro drummer that "My grandma DID your job!" @greeneclipse8088
Someone, somewhere, out there, some lucky grand kid prolly is😋
And it's absolutely NOT just smack talk. No. She will OWN you, bitch
My grandma bought a kit when she was 60. She used to joke that she wanted a bicep tattoo and to be called snake, but drummed in her church band lol!
Awesome grandma
"...we’re all still part of a drumming family." we need more of this in our world.
“You play like my grandma!”
“Thanks dude!”
holitinne 😂😂😂🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽
Nailed it 🤣
Hahahahabab
*_Haha_*
😂🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Her grandchildren could say "my grandma plays drums better than you" without even lying
Nenek lo kiper
Facts lol 😂
bruh, that's the ultimate insult. also a ultimate flex
Lol, Good One!
thats the reality haha :D
She played so well. Effortlessly. So glad I stumbled upon her.
She's super chill while playing, it's so cool!
Me: "My grandma is down with the sickness".
Normal people: "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Hope she gets better soon."
Me: " *No, you don't understand* "

Legendary comment right here.
Very funny, I like it
not to dissing the comment. but this post really hit hard if you know that joey jordison just died. rest in peace #1
Lmfao!! Awesome.
The way she does this effortlessly is what gets me!
Her timing and feel are just perfect! killer peformance 🤘
"You drum like a granny" is no longer a valid insult.
I'd be overly proud 😂
@Ryandal Gilmore it's just a play on "you drive like a granny".
Yep
@@farhanmahalludin My late wife was a granny, and she left most smoking her dust. lol She was also a great bassist.
I mean.. her skill is average
Imagine your a teenager and your mom/aunt/grandma slays the drums in your band
Yeah I get that but... The Glock 17 Generation 3 is a modern Austrian made polymer based magazine fed pistol chambered in 9x19mm. Used by law enforcement around the world, the Glock 17 is known for it’s reliability, availability and affordability which play a key role in how it replaced the Beretta M9/92FS/92 and would arguably be the most famous pistol in the world - even featuring in Rick and Morty as one of the human pistol models in the show.
Yeah
@@LegendaryGames420 Check out the glock 43x.
grandpa. that's why I started, I wanted to play drums for my granddaughter /
@@lordfordification thats cool but did you know The springfield Hellcat is simular to the 43x but packs a front night sight, a high contrast rear sight, an optics ready option, an aggressive grip texture, and front and rear slide serrations
CZcams recommendations for the win. She is seriously impressive. Ive had to rewind parts multiple times just to take in her amazing skill.
I'm living for this woman omg such an absolute legend
Grandson: Doctor, something ain’t right with Grandma
Doctor: Say ahhhh
Grandma: oh wah ah ah ah
Doctor: She’s down with the sickness
Ahahahahahahahahahahaaa!!!!!
Niiiiiiiice
Also grandma: Ohk ohk... Ohk ohk...
Looool rofl
Underrated comment AF
"I've seen a grandmother play better than you." Is no longer an insult.
True 😆
underrated
All grandmothers play like her.. Just she is the only one been recorded so far.

This made me so happy. Reminds me of my grandma - she was such a G, may God rest her soul ❤
This was a beautiful moment I never knew I needed. Thank you Ma'am for being you and showing us your gift. 😮😊

Guy : Sorry, are we being too loud?
Granma : You're too quiet.
😂😂😂
I thought the same thing ."No dear, you're not loud enough."
If it's too loud.... You're too old!!
Not only is this a kick ass song (and drum song) but this woman just made me appreciate it even more. I started drumming about 6 months ago and good God this lady is an inspiration to me. Rock on Dorothea!!
No idea how this came across my feed but this is absolutely the best thing I’ve seen on CZcams in 2023. Love it! Her talent and message are just on point!
"So kid, what do you want to be when you grow up?"
"I'm wanna be a heavy metal drummer, just like my grandma!"
Hell yeah 😎
Exactly. Couldn't have said it better myself.
If I was the teacher, i have to admit i would think the kid was lying until he proudly shows me this video and shut me up lol
Please stop assuming everyone over 50 have children and grandchildren, this video is about assumptions due to looks, and not to judge anyone by their looks. You did not learn anything by watching this video.
@@espenevensen9188 Yet here you are judging someone based on a joke which isn't meant to be taken seriously in any way. What exactly did you think you accomplished by posting your comment?
I’m 37 i thought it was too late for me to learn how to play the drums, she inspires me now to not give up on that.
I just started learning Guitar and Piano at the age of almost 40. Don’t let your age stop you from trying to learn music.😊

aw, her closing speech was super heartwarming. Thanks Dorothea. I needed that encouragement today.
CZcams: You wanna see a granny playing Down with the Sickness?
Me: Sure.
Lol 😂
F n a i do!!!
I love her
The drums are so easy for it. If you did not have the song playing over it then it would not be nearly as impressive. She had good rhythm, but the lack of a better song is what makes this lose a lot of its potential.
Beetlesiri Can your grandma do this tho? 😂
we often forget that grandmas were once teenagers too
Amen .I'm a rocker n always will be I don't care about my age.cus I'm golden..now my son a rocker n can truelly rock on guiter drums base .love this woman she awsome .she sure can get down on drums

This is, without a doubt, one of the coolest things I've ever seen! I'm 63 and just started giving my 20 year old grandson lessons. He lives by your stick technique videos. The other day he said "Papa, she explained match grip better than anyone I've ever seen" . BTW, "sickness" is one of our favorite songs to jamm together. You rock!!!
Grandma: "if you can beat me at drumming you can go out with your friends"
Also Grandma:

He stayed home that day, needless to say.
@@avenue4624 Nice one
Legend has it that he was never able to see his friends again
Easy song to drum to tho
Her grandchildren talking to there mates: “My grandma can play better drums than you”
And then actually does 😂
:D
@Bob Salazar I humbly submit that technological innovation has more to do with it than the drummer in this video.
People have more choices nowadays, both musicians and fans, and that's a good thing. I'm sure there will always be talented musicians making rock music in our lifetimes.
And why is it that an old woman evokes a stronger negative reaction in you than an old man? Isn't dispelling preconceived notions of people based on their appearance the whole point of this video?
Bob Salazar u are very troubled
LITERALLY!
We all need to go deep in realizing older ppl are our future selves, and treat them with kindness & respect. Thank you, Dorothea, for inspiring & opening minds. ❤
😳
Woohooooo!!! This video just filled my heart with joy.
Another point for my side. Mad respect for this older woman. She's got epic talent! 👍🏼👍🏼
Reminds me to get out this cd & pop it in. Havent listened to this great song in ages.
I’d like to thank the CZcams algorithm for bringing me the most metal grandma in history
lawnboy1898 this lady 100% made my day!
😜🤘🏼
She'll do one of two things: 1) Make you practice harder OR 2) Burn your kit. Either way, SHE WINS!!!
lawnboy1898 me too
Look up a grandma doing a blastbeats lesson. It's insane!
I wanted to learn drums as a kid but was told it was not "ladylike" to play them. Just turned 50 got my first drum set!
I'm 55 and I just received my first. A present from my 30 year old son.
Yessss, you go girls 💪🤘
Good luck!
We just bought our Yamaha kit the other day (I'm 56, husband is 58, he played drums in HS I never have but am enjoying practicing). I wish I had stated back in HS forget "ladylike"! 😂
Hell yea! Get it girl! (no disrespect)
Best thing I’ve seen in a long time. This made my day. She is freaking amazing!
That beautiful message at the end is what it is all about. I hope you still out there rocking granny!
I think we forget that Ozzy is 72. She's in the age group that created metal.
Holly shit
Mick will be 79 this year. He and my dad have the same birthday….dad always said “Mick got all the looks and I got all the brains and God was running short on both that day!”
This is one of the best and most relevant comments on this video. We wouldn't have all the metal we love without her generation. "Standing on the shoulders of giants" and all that.

Always loved female drummers but for some reason never considered they would grow old, and that age would turn them into even more of a badass.
Bologna Older women have special powers.
Bologna Fully agreed!!!
Maureen Sullivan witch magic
Daniel Martin this is easy to answer. Recording drummers or drums is all on technique. Even 'famous' drummers are less expressive in the booth. On stage it is a different story non the less.
Even Michael Jackson sang 'normal' in the studio.
Because they lack visibility in the media since females are mostly seen from a sexualised light

Music brings people together. Dorothea rocks!
I've been drumming 34 years. In 1985 the band teacher at my Jr high school told me girls don't play drums. My mom bought me my own kit and i taught myself to play by learning every song on guns and roses appetite for destruction album. Never let anyone tell you you can't do it.
In 89 I also wanted to play drums and only boys did it. They wanted to hand me a flute or clarinet. I chose art instead of band after that. It ended up being my major but I wish I had fought to do percussion.
@@ambivalentdisaster673 I was refused music classes because "Only members in the band are being allowed" Was denied every time.
Yup I chose the drums in 8th grade, they switched me to flute. I did well at 2cd and 1st chair but I bet I'd still be playing if I were on the drums.
@@lucyleary4356 it's never too late. I've played drums forever but I learned guitar at 31 and love it too.
@@WatchMeWakeU111111 That's awesome...the 30s are a great time to learn anything and some peak earning and creativity times. But even though I'm older, I agree with you at any age!

I sent this to my mom. A grandma who can play drums 😂 taught me how to play. I traveled afterwards. I’m still working on what moms and grandmas teach on drums 😂
Hahaha classic
Steve who?
lol
Susan your timing is phenomenal! Love the song choice.
So clean,every hit are perfect!
Bravo
everyone forgets that "old people" were young once. Grandma was probably a metal head when metal started. whether she just started playing or has been playing her whole life this lady has likely been rocking longer than most of us have been alive.
Thank you for this!!!
I have no doubts she invented metal, & I mean that in the most metal way possible
I am a 62 year old percussionist, singer and promote music on a Global DJ. You are right on with you insight. Ageism is such a trap for people. Rock ON! I plan to.
I find it easier to see it as aging simply being gaining experience. A lot of people seem to assume that a lot of things are the perogative of "young" people. Age has nothing to do with most things other than literally how long people have been on this earth. Thinking anything else really is just a mild form of ageism.
If I remember seeing something about her... She started out with some kind of jazz band, then pop or surf rock (think of the style of Beatles and Beach Boys when they were "the thing"), but it's the technicality of the playing that got her into the harder styles of rock later on. My understanding is she has a reputation of coaching/teaching to improve the technique of other drummers out there. She's out there to school in more than one way.
Imagine a whole band of grandmas just shredding. Glorious
She could hook up with Carol Kaye on bass and they'd already be a pretty solid group.
Yeah they are called Joan Jett and the Black hearts
Idk if I'd be down for it if it's just Disturbed covers, maybe if they did some Testament, Anthrax.. actually if they covered Job For A Cowboy or Lamb Of God then I'd pay to go see that all day!
I wanna see that
Glorious indeed.
Absolutely loved that!!!!! Really needed to see this today...now I'm a fan!!!
I never get tired of watching this.
