John Stamos slays drums on Papa Roach's ‘Last Resort,' a song he says he'd never heard before

CNN29-04-2025

John Stamos proved he's always up for a challenge in a new video for YouTube channel Drumeo, in which he was tasked with drumming along to a song he'd never heard before.
Enter Papa Roach's 'Last Resort.'
For all the Millennials currently gasping that the former 'Full House' star has never heard this banger from the year 2000 – the music video of which currently has over 280 million views on YouTube – we hear you.
The 'For the First Time' challenge is simple: The participant first listens to a song they'd never heard before with the drum section removed. Then, they are tasked with playing the part on their own.
'Let me tell every drummer who ever gets the chance to do this, don't,' he jokingly told the camera, as host Brandon Toews looked on. 'It's intimidating but, f*** it.'
Stamos heard the song a couple of times, eventually recording the entire song his own way and improvising as the fast-paced nu metal track of the aughts played.
By the end, Stamos, clearly exhausted with his hair drenched from sweat, had impressed the room.
Afterward, he asked if the song was by Ozzy Osbourne but Toews revealed to him that the song was by Papa Roach and the drummer is Dave Buckner.
Ultimately, the two concluded that Stamos' version wound up being pretty close to Buckner's original rendition.
'That was pretty cool!' Stamos said. 'I think I barely lived through it… I survived.'
Stamos, best known for his work on the small screen, is an experienced musician and passionate drummer, having performed with major acts including the Beach Boys, BB King and Bruce Springsteen.

MrBeast says he spent $500K to rent out Disneyland for date with fiancée

MrBeast says he spent $500K to rent out Disneyland for date with fiancée Show Caption Hide Caption What to expect on your visit to Disney's Castaway Cay Castaway Cay is Disney's private island, reserved exclusively for Disney Cruise Line guests in the Bahamas. YouTube's most-subscribed-to content creator has once again made a larger-than-life purchase by paying $500,000 to rent out an entire Disneyland theme park for a "romantic date" with his fiancée. In a new YouTube video, MrBeast, the social media persona of Jimmy Donaldson, takes his fiancée Thea Booysen on six dates that range from $1 to $500,000, concluding with what he says was an evening at Disneyland all to themselves (in addition to a handful of friends and crew, of course). The group rode Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Pixar Pal-A-Round (the 150-foot-tall Ferris wheel); played several carnival-style games; and built custom lightsabers at Savi's Workshop in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. "There are no words to describe how special it is to have Disney all to ourselves," Donaldson said in the little over 17-minute video. "I think we all made memories that are going to last a lifetime." Birthdays at Disneyland: Duchess Meghan, Prince Harry take Archie and Lilibet to Disneyland for birthday MrBeast is not the first celeb to rent out Disneyland On Feb. 27, 1992, actress Elizabeth Taylor rented out all of Disneyland to celebrate her 60th birthday. The entire park shut down for the birthday bash, which required extra security. Hundreds of celebrities attended the party, which proved to be a successful marketing promotion for Disney. Theme parks: New report finds Disneyland, Disney World contribute $67B to US economy Can you actually rent out all of Disneyland? Disney did not immediately respond to USA TODAY's request for comment on MrBeast's video or consumers' ability to rent out an entire theme park. However, several Disney-centric blogs like Magic Guides say it is not possible. "Closing down the resort for a day would be a public relations nightmare and would severely disrupt how guests could plan and book their trips," Magic Guides' author Joshua Powell wrote. Disneyland does offer some private and after-hours experiences, though, like Disney After Hours, in which customers can purchase tickets for three extended hours after the park's traditional closing time. The theme park also offers Disney's Fair Tale Weddings & Honeymoons, which allows couples and their family to rent various venues, including The Sleeping Beauty Castle Forecourt and Small World Mall.
