His name is Jake the Snake…and the dude is rock steady.
With precision timing and a feel for the beat, Jake is a percussionist who—along with his brother Brad as a duo, or rocking out with legendary local band The Burners—has dazzled the Chester County, PA, music scene for years.
“I have autism and it's hard for me to do stuff," says Jake. “But it's easy for me to drum."
Every day, Jake “the Snake” Herring is living out his childhood dream of becoming a drummer. And he has his lifelong instructor, Anthony Cracchiolo, to thank for some help along the way.
For more about "The Snake" and his formidable percussion skills, as well as the truly awesome, this-should-be-a-major-motion-picture story of his relationship with Anthony, click on the photo to view the video or read the full article at 6abc.com.

The Snakekit Breakdown Challenge
THE CLOCK IS TICKING... THE HARDWARE IS WAITING... AND THE LEGENDARY SNAKEKIT BREAKDOWN CHALLENGE HAS BEEN ISSUED!
Veteran drum instructor Tony Prego has thrown down the gauntlet in a test of speed, skill, discipline, and pure road-warrior determination.
The mission is simple: Set up and breakdown the entire Snake Drum Arsenal. Master every stand, every cable, every cymbal, every pedal, every case, and every piece of gear that powers the Snake Machine.
But this isn't just about moving equipment: It is about learning the craft and the discipline to be a working musician. Every professional drummer must master of the setup and teardown process.
The current Snakekit Breakdown World Record is…
18 MINUTES.
Can Jake crush the record? Can he rewrite history? Can he become the undisputed champion of setup and teardown speed?
Only time will tell.
IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL SNAKEHEADS:
When Jake enters “Breakdown Mode” before or after a performance, he is officially on the clock. During this critical operation, Snakeheads are asked to hold autograph requests, selfies, conversations, high-fives, and championship celebrations until the challenge is complete.
Remember…a distracted Snake is a slower Snake. Cheer from a safe distance, witness history in the making, and let the master at work do battle against the clock.
THE GEAR…THE GRIND…THE GLORY…
THE SNAKEKIT BREAKDOWN CHALLENGE!
Face facts Prego…
the Mets are just awful.
Just, just plain awful.
