Bow Down to the Lord of the iPad Drummers

But Appleman is not a man (nor a fruit) to be easily daunted. He took his iPad, because you can’t expect a dude named “Appleman” to be rocking a Nexus 7, and became a wizard at touch screen shredding. It’s tough to get pure double kick going with just your fingers, but he plays those quads like a boss.

Give the video a watch. It starts out a little slow but by the end I was pretty impressed.
