Hi Casey,
Thanks for joining in, it's always best to get info from the horse's mouth and I'm glad to learn you're not just a YouTube Drummer. I will stand corrected on my gig comments.
You need to understand that the term "YouTube Drummer" doesn't necessarily carry a lot of credibility, thanks to some unfortunate exploitation by certain well-known folks. Also, the original post in this thread really set you up as something extra special, which is a lot for any drummer to live up to.
I won't backpeddle on my comments however, you do need to work on locking-in with tracks. But at 22, you've got a lot of musical growth ahead. In fact, the learning process never really ends, there are certainly things I could stand to improve (perhaps not just musically!)
Also, my being a moderator doesn't mean that my opinions necessarily reflect those of the other moderators or the majority of the membership. I watch what I say for other reasons, but not because I'm a mod.
Anyway, welcome, and please feel free to contribute on a regular basis. I think you'll find everyone is pretty nice, when they're not jumping down your throat!
