    The video was everything I expected and more. The price was right and it was delivered in about 4 days. You simply can’t beat that kind of customer service.

    Great DVD for learning how to play the drums! Tommy is a great instructor! I sound pretty good and I’ve only watched the DVD a few times, I’ll be a pro in no time.

    I purchased this DVD to learn how to play the drums. I am a complete beginner. I haven’t received my drum set yet, but I decided I wanted to watch part of this anyways, so I watched the “how to set up” portion of the dvd. Not only did I learn really important things that are going to help me set up my drum, but Tommy Igoe made watching the video entertaining, with witty jokes every now and then. I can’t wait to watch the rest of this dvd when my drum set arrives. 5 stars, this is the best out there

    Great for introductory video. My 10 year old daughter is working her way through it and thoroughly enjoys it.
