Spin reached out the Metallica drummer to get his response to the challenge and here is what he had to say, "It was a little lonely on the sidelines during the first drum-off, given the somewhat forced nature of the lookalike element between Chad Smith and Will Ferrell, when I'm truly the one carrying that dead-ringer gene around!

"As for any further drum-offs, I'm sure that with a bit of practice, I could give Chad a run for his money. But Will? That's a whole different story. He rules the 'bad-ass drummer universe.'

"I mean, you're talking about a guy who's so next level, actually, so beyond next level, that he may just be completely unreachable! That said, I'm definitely up for the challenge... Bring it on!"

A short time later, Chad Smith had the following response on Facebook, "Two pieces of advice for Lars: Leave the double bass drums at home and load up on cowbells!"
