    Episode XLII - Danny Herrera - Carry an extra drumhead (Friends Edition) Season IV

    Episode XLII (42) with Danny Herrera coming in hot! This is solely my opinion but Danny and I share a lot of similarities when it comes to drumming. He plays what needs to be played, doesn't overdo with fills, and has great timing! Some of the core qualities I try to embody when I'm on the kit. He's a great friend but an amazing drummer!   Special thanks:  Chad Manalo (Audio Editing)  Danny Herrera ____________________________________ FOLLOW DANNY:   http://www.instagram.com/dannyd0k  http://www.youtube.com/DannyHerrera   FOLLOW ME:   http://www.instagram.com/sir_kevinchong http://www.instagram.com/sirkevinsays​​  WEBSITE:   http://www.sirkevinchong.com​​​
