As a kid, there are certain obstacles you’re meant to cross. Obstacles and rules that really don’t matter and when you figure that out, that’s when you become a real threat to the system and to the teachers who are imposing them.

I almost cried when I first saw this video. I felt like I was watching a fellow inmate make it over the wall, past the guard and into the brush. This poor kid is bored to death. He’s practiced his drums at home and he plays in the band at school, but he’s not allowed to play in the band at school like he does at home. He enjoys playing in the band but not that much. In fact, he only does it so his parents will continue renting him the drum kit. But what’s the point of playing an instrument if you can’t use it to truly express yourself? And what’s the point of putting on a performance when you’re not even pushing yourself?

My man’s figured it out, though. This performance doesn’t matter at all and he knows it. The adults might know that he’s figured that out, too. He also knows that if he would just let loose that he could rip it to pieces and it’d be amazing! …Nobody would stop him. How could they? They’d look like fools in front of the audience, trying to stop a kid who only wants to show off his skills for his parents. Plus, what exactly is he doing wrong? Clearly he can play the drums and it is his turn to play a solo, so he couldn’t be accused of hogging someone else’s part, or something like that… The teachers are scared. They see that he’s gone AWOL and one of them even goes back there to try and guilt him into calming down. Not a chance, my man even shakes his head at that lady, “no thanks, I got this”. How on earth do you remedy this situation?

As a grown-up, I’m sure you’d have no problem punishing this little shredder. He broke the rules and that’s that. But for everyone else, those of us who understand the importance of making farting sounds when someone bends over, how could you do anything other than hoist this little hero on your shoulders, march him to the nearest milkshake and fries and let him stay up until midnight?

I’m sure he got punished for this but I can only hope that whoever enforced his punishment let him know that he’s amazing and he should be encouraged to keep doing his thing. He’s a modern day Cool Hand Luke.
