"not quite my tempo" Sugarfoot talking to the metronome
-
The left kick pedal is only there in case of emergency if the right pedal breaks from all the awesomeness.
-
That right calf could power a city
-
Everyone's impressed with how long Moffett's right leg can hold that beat- I'm impressed with how long the white guy in the back can hold a massive grin
-
And all that while keeping a straight face. Nothing but respect for that man.
-
I just got leg cramps just by watching this.
-
While this wasn't the most mind-blowing drum solo I've ever seen, one thing is awesome: The guy picks a really nice beat and builds an entire solo around that doesn't get boring at all for almost 8 minutes. He doesn't overplay, even in a solo. That shows restraint and taste and deserves quite a bit of respect, IMO.

"I wonder why they call him Sugarf- ok, never mind."
-
Sugarfoot: finishes solo Drum set: lights a cigarette
-
5:57 That Move is Called " No Look No Smile Butterfly wings Backside Reversal Double Splash"
-
What he’s doing with the bass pedal, to me, is the most impressive thing here, both in terms of endurance and skill. I’m certainly not an expert on drummers, but I’ve never seen a drummer hover their ankle like that and tap out the bass as if it was working the same as his hand.
-
As a drummer, all I can say is wow. I'm absolutely astonished by how fast he can control the foot pedal. Definitely one of my biggest influences. Dude should be called cocaine foot, absolutely insane!
-
2:13 He’s so good even the drumsticks bend for him
-
He has another brain just for his right foot...
-
Been drumming most of my life been watching drumming all my life this guy is one of the most tasteful, in the pocket, perfect tempo, groovy ass drummers I’ve ever seen! 😳
-
Even as a non-drummer, this just continues to fascinate me.
-
He’s the guy that says “yeah I play a little bit of the drums”
-
The only man who could possibly play modern metal with a single pedal
-
Legend says that drum machines get nervous when he's around.
