Megadeth "Holy Wars" SOR Elk Grove End of Season 18 Performance Band

5-21-23 SoR Metallica/Megadeth Performance Band. Performance bands are created with students with different levels of music skills. They meet once a week over a period of 4 months to rehearse and put on a show at the end of 4 months. I was thrilled to be asked to step-in as a drummer a few weeks into the start of their rehearsals as I had never played anything by Metallica or Megadeth.

Absolute props to this drummer!

[@fsrsaa]

Yes!

[@jerrydonquixote5927]

Exactly!!!

[@javimejia5150]

Impressive drummer. That's real talent, congratulations! (music teacher here) 😎

[@Dan-ql1st]

glad to see these kids into metal

[@garethsavin4464]

Absolutely love seeing kids like this. It’s not just the getting out there and doing it it’s the fact they are playing music from an era beyond their years and doing it well. I’m a 54 yo uk bass player here and I’d be more than happy to stand in front of that drummer with full confidence in her ability.

[@katepilcherdrums]

Thanks for watching and for your kind feedback.😀

[@banjomechanic]

Holy sh!t, that girl on drums is killing it!!! Even with a single bass pedal. Nice!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@katepilcherdrums]

Thanks

[@robertperrotto870]

@@katepilcherdrums You did have 2 pedals, but a single bass drum, 4:28 - 4:30, the transition to the fast part of the song. Not taking anything away from your accomplishment, you did really well on a classic Megadeth song.

[@georgemassi]

Amazing, even without the double pedal.

[@nathan_von]

She has a double pedal. Watch closer

[@Jayteaseepiirturi]

The green pleated skirt got me. :D But when you play drums like that, you don't have to make a point with your wardrobe. Nice job!
I can so see it: She makes the green pleated skirt her trademark! :D Or not. But I do believe we're gonna hear more of this skinslady!

[@matsnilson7727]

Didn't quite know what to expect when I clicked on the video, but I was definitely impressed. Top shelf drumming.

VERY technical song......good job

[@coolbron2597]

I like her swing. And the way her head bounces off the beat. Not a lot of drummers have that Nick Menza swing style. In fact, no drummer has it

[@katepilcherdrums]

Thank you

If you look at 4:33 you can see that she is using a double pedal. Imho its the right way to play most of the song with only one pedal
