    looking at the video, i see 3 tricks. Hitting the pen on the table, hitting the tip of the pen on the table, and hitting the wrist on the table. Plus using both of the hands. Are there more?

    Not trying to say it's easy or anything, that's totally awesome

    hmm yes... but it's all about making good rhythm...

    a drummer USUALLY only has a limited number of pieces (basic kit: 4 pieces) compared to a pianist (88 keys) or other instruments, its the rhythm that counts.

    I do this to TELL ME WHEN TO GO - E40. I also beat box the bass of the song w/ the tapping so it's all swell.

    I remember when I was young... I was trying to do that except not to that degree of musicness, the teacher confiscated my pen! That was the pen I liked a lot at the time. dry.gif Lesson learnt.

    this is pretty awsome lol. Its like a drum kit witht eh wrist thing as teh base, the entire pen slam as teh snare, and the tip of hte pen as the high hat.
