COOP3RDRUMM3R's - America's Got Talent - YouTube Audition

UPDATE: The Video Audition period has ended. The judges were obviously not looking for a drummer for the show, but thats ok :D I would've stood a much better shot at a live audition for the judges anyway! Thanks so much for the support you offered and all the support you promised if I had made it on the show! Though this opportunity didn't work out thats ok, there are plenty more contests to come in the future, and I will definitely be doing some more :D

Hey Everyone! America's Got Talent is doing YouTube Auditions for a spot on this season's show, and so I promised a bunch of people I would give it a shot! I know I'm not the best drummer in America, but I put my heart and soul into every note I play, and I love jamming out and entertaining people with the talents that I've been so blessed to have received. So here is my audition that I am entering! Winning would be sweet, but thats not what its all about to me! I'd love to just get on the show and share my love and passion for drumming and entertain everyone watching, and get a chance to inspire more musicians to follow their dreams and work hard and do what they love :)

I've been crazy busy at work, and so I only had a few hours one morning before work to put it together, so its all improvisation, but I was happy with the result! Due to copyright regulations for the contest I decided to play to the America's Got Talent theme song, and I had to take down all of my easily visible posters so that there weren't any third party logos in the background.

This video will go into the first round where the judges will pick 20 acts to be voted on by America. If I make it to the next round (Which I'm working hard to do) I'll post a video explaining how and when you can vote for me and help get me on the show! All of your support is so appreciated! It would be a huge honor if I got the chance to play for America on this show, so I thank you for all of your help and support in getting me to where I am today! I have the best fans and subscribers and viewers there are!

Due to copyright restrictions, I can no longer offer mp3 downloads, but

I give away all of my videos and music for free, but if you'd like to help me make better and cooler videos you can Donate with the link below :)
