Watch in HD!!! This is a drum cover of 'Cloud City' by Chimp Spanner! I recently got home from touring with Chimp Spanner. I am the touring drummer for Jeff Loomis, but I also filled in for Chimp Spanner on the same U.S. tour (Intrinsic tour with The Contortionist)! It was a lot of fun playing with Paul every night. He is a REALLY nice guy, and he is such a talented song writer/musician!!! I have a lot of respect for him. I did this video before I left. I wanted to upload it while I was on tour, but I never had a decent/stable internet connection to do so!

I do not drum for Chimp Spanner. Boris Le Gal is the drummer for Chimp Spanner. For specific and legitimate reasons, the entire band wasn't able to make it to the U.S. for this tour. I was just a fill-in drummer for this tour!

All of the drums are natural in this video. I just did my best to make a decent mix for the tube! The original drums are still in the mix, but turned down significantly!
