Awesome! If you don’t think he’s an absolute beast after watching this, something is wrong with you!

And to think this band used to have a solid drummer who loosely resembled Alex and even wore a neckbrace during Van Hagar songs. :roll:

You can tell the quality of Zoltan's playing by the bands he's been in. That is all.

Thought he was still with Vince. Slaughter's old drummer guy came back.

If he was fired, it was because he was getting WAY too much attention.

If he was fired it was probably because he’s more worried about kicking cymbals than keeping time.

I told the singer of this band when he first hired him that he's a distraction and not a good visual fit for VH tribute (remember, a previous drummer even wore a neck brace during Hagar songs) and he said that all that matters is that he keeps time.

I would hope that he didn't do a drum solo or if he did that it was short. His entire show is a drum solo.

I am not expert, but in just the first minute or so I watched I feel like there were a couple times he was out of time on the snare hits.

He's so different off-stage. I've seen him before casino shows eating by himself looking glum and unapproachable.

Probably Will Hunt or Jordan Cannata. Did he have blonde or brown hair?

The singer in the VH cover band is Gene Henriksen, his brother Tommy is in Alice Cooper’s band and the Hollywood Vampires. Gene is great. I remember when I was a kid growing up on Long Island in the 90’s, Gene would pull up shirtless in his convertible. The dude thought he was a rock star. There were so many characters from that time period and he was certainly one of them.

Gene has always been cool and comes across as a likeable guy thankful that he still gets to do this for a living. As for Zoltan offstage, I asked Gene once to get Zoltan's attention after the show to take a picture with a 12 year old kid was told, "he doesn't do that". Perhaps with his onstage antics combined with his offstage isolation there may be something going on on the spectrum level. That, or he's a complete dick. You're in a parking lot after the show. Take a picture with the kid, dude.

Jeebus. That was worse than the "drummer at the wrong gig" viral video.
