Nashville's Drum Convention - Music City Drum Show 2024

[@manuelcavazos8501]

The amount of custom drum makers is incredible. And some with really cool innovative ideas.

[@trollponch]

8:10 that right there is GENIOUS!!

[@petercresanti4430]

The amount of designs and manufactures is awesome, thanks for showing this!!

[@morgunstyles7253]

Thank you for this video.

[@MacDKB]

If you heard the audio without the video, you'd be, like, "What the hell is this?!" It sounds like total chaos. 😂

[@65Drums]

it was LOUD in there lol

[@DerekFrampton]

it "IS" total chaos. LOVE IT! Cheers!

[@gerardferrara4387]

Funny, but true ! Gotta love drums and drummers.

[@nakim55]

All I could think, listening to these drummers was, imagine if you could time travel some bebop drummers from the 1950’s in there. You would be hearing some actual music.

[@bigsquatchsasfoot1964]

Man oh man I’d be dribbling in there so many beautiful drum kits 👌 I loved that lucky kit looked so nice and a simple uncomplicated set up . I’m always horse and can hardly speak after going to these type events after hours of shouting at one another 😂

[@stevenfisher2700]

Thanks for the great overview, Justin!

[@65Drums]

Thanks Steve!

[@LDdrums20]

Heaven!

[@65Drums]

So much to see!

[@BouncebacKDrumChannel]

Love the Rogers kit @9:50.

[@ddummer]

My tinnitus can resonate with this... :)

[@ronjon5386]

Craviotto makes dime of the best sounding drums.

[@korndud]

love the sounds of drumming chaos!

[@rikvanderbrugghen6792]

Good footage Justin! Always nice to hang along... My vote goes to the kid on the yellow drums!

[@OthonasDrums]

I like the new Gewa cymbals..I hope they work better too

[@kjdtm]

it must be NICE to be able to casually walk by drum-er legends....

[@anthonyryan1342]

The weird and the wonderful! Great video.

[@julianandreaswiggins5756]

Bro, it is drumming heaven right now!!

[@65Drums]

yes it is!

[@julianandreaswiggins5756]

@@65Drums Yessir!

[@Sundaydrumday]

The RL Neon acrylic kit, i fell in love with that instantly, Reverie makes some really sick drums too. But my ultimate love is the Gretsch at 6:37, the gold sparkle my god I want that drum set and if they threw in one of the brass drums behind it I would not cry either lol.

[@65Drums]

Even with all those kits, that RL kit stood out like crazy :)

[@ArgonautDrums]

So many pretty kits 😍

[@65Drums]

I didn't even include all of them! Loud as crap in there too

[@ivanbajovic3476]

And so many ugly kits

[@inventorsyndrome8894]

That sonor kit is my dream kit

[@65Drums]

It's so nice!!

[@360.Tapestry]

there are so many cool ideas out there

[@doublestrokeroll]

yep....and also so many doomed to failure.

[@NintenDub]

I love the vintage style that's coming back

[@PhillipSlaymaker-n1p]

Once upon a Time guitar center opened up they took over the Old Navy store Hillsdale Mall San Mateo first 500 people got a t-shirt I was number 480 the guitar department 26 guitar players do they all had guitars plugged into amplifiers and it lit up at once. The drum department 11 drummers I was the third drummer blast beater double kick abuse for 20 minutes it was so awesome it was like a giant candy store. 😎👍

[@joethelefty]

they really should have had a loud click track so everybodyhad to play in time together.

[@65Drums]

That would be hilarious XD

[@samuelzapata4151]

You know people would still get lost though hahaha

[@NIJHR]

lol all these background noises, love it

[@knowntalmbout]

Love seeing jays drum closet as the thumbnail

[@65Drums]

It's such a cool looking kit!

[@cleverdood]

Holy cow, I got a headache just watching! Must have been insanely loud in there! Beat Note looked really cool, would be awesome if you could export to midi, even though it’s designed for notation. That looks way easier to program than most drum software. There’s a great custom builder up here in Canada called TRS Drums. They do repair, vintage stuff and have their own line of kits. I used to work in the shop there 30 years ago making drums, wrapping etc. good to see lots of smaller companies there.

[@Graystaff]

Nice gimbal work! Nice smooth shots.

[@65Drums]

Thanks! I've been trying to get better a simple movements that look smooth

[@Graystaff]

@@65Drums it shows! I love my DJI OM 6 but don’t use half of its capabilities.

[@65Drums]

@@Graystaff I've got the DJI OM 4, and it really makes a huge difference. I don't have to use warp stabilizer on everything for walking shots like this

[@jimtobakos1933]

Cool to see INDE there. I drive by their shop all the time in the absolute middle of nowhere Michigan and was always curious to check out their drums.

[@65Drums]

Cool I didn't know they were from Michigan, I have family up there :)

[@nakim55]

They make great snare drums, I own one.

[@boinknook]

That was a great treat Justin! I like that wing nut wrench. Too bad you didn't get a message` on the way out!🤭

[@codersexpo1580]

Wing Thing? Seriously? Having trouble using your fingers to adjust the wing nuts??

[@SydneyDrums]

@@codersexpo1580 when you start using house drum kits at venues and at music rehearsal studios and every once in awhile some person before you has tightened these things up so damn tight that having the wing wrench would be perfect.. as long as it costs about $20

[@steevidrums]

I know it’s only from a camera microphone, but you can tell that Craviotto kit sounds absolutely stunning.

[@65Drums]

Oh yeah it's a nice sounding kit. You can even tell from this iPhone footage

[@steevidrums]

@@65Drums I have to admit, that Bonham sound always hits me right in the feels.

[@eduardodiasfigueira8309]

paraiso😮

[@laptoples]

Great tour !!!!! Hopefully there's a follow up with commentary !!! 👍😁👍

[@codersexpo1580]

Beat Note?? There are lots of other software out there that you can already do this with. What I would REALLY like to see, is for an app like liveBPM (apple mobile app that listens to your playing to keep your timing tight) to notate what you are playing and send that to midi or pdf. Now THAT would be cool.

[@MazdaBass971]

1:26 That looks like Devin Attard, I thought he was all SJC drums, maybe it was just a visit. lol

[@MattMendians]

I live in Nashville but didn’t know about this event. I wonder how expensive it was to go and course parking? That’s why I don’t go to concerts anymore. Everything is so expensive!

[@65Drums]

I think i paid 20 bucks all in. parking and admission

[@MattMendians]

@@65Drums Really? I wish I had known! I’ll look into it if it’s a yearly event for next year!

[@360.Tapestry]

5:25 the way the dark cymbals play with the light is kinda trippy

[@baorozzo]

1:38 Zack Grooves!

[@65Drums]

lol come visit the convention next July! :) it's pretty cheap to get in

[@baorozzo]

I’m from Italy, I think it will cost me a little anyway LOL 😂

[@Spagz]

Those Tone Wings seem cool. And the Boom CRD, although it needs a better name 😂

[@Dodogama5474]

1:21 Devin Attard spotted in the wild

[@progression_decibel]

Naive question but is this open to the public and/or somehow advertised early to social media channel owners, etc? I don’t know how I missed this. I’m only a 4.5-hour drive from Nashville.

[@65Drums]

I think I paid 20 bucks or something to get in. Tons of people there, it's not an industry convention. I don't know how many years they've held it, but anyone can go. I'm glad it's only an hour away from me, unlike NAMM in CA.

[@progression_decibel]

@@65Drums very cool. I’ll have to bookmark it for next year. You going to NAMM this January? I’ll be there again.

[@fahad.malick]

Hey Justin, are you going to attend PASIC this year in Indianapolis?

[@65Drums]

$175 for a one day ticket doesn't feel like it makes sense to me, so I'm not going to attend. The Nashville show was like 20 bucks.

[@steevidrums]

Looks like Gewa updated the design on their cymbals.

[@65Drums]

yup, they moved away from the old design. Though I'm sure they have to sell through the remaining stock before the old cymbals fully go away

[@GEWADigitalDrums]

No - we are going to replace all cymbals of the sets in stores worldwid + all kits being shipped by 1st of August will come with the new neo line.

[@steevidrums]

@@GEWADigitalDrumsthat’s good news. Can you tell me (or show me where) what the new design is, or where I can find information on them.

[@GEWADigitalDrums]

@@steevidrums information will be released next week.

Dude playing Good Friends and a Bottle of Pills by Pantera!

[@zeljkosamardzic9910]

how can I find this Boom CRD??

[@listener84]

Ironic that this happened at 4:20 😂 had I known putting tone wings inside my drum would’ve saved me almost 10k on my stereo pair of 1073, I wouldn’t have bought them! Lol

[@markmalonson7531]

Nice!

[@PatFlanigan]

I can’t imagine spending more than 2mins in that spot without earplugs!

[@65Drums]

Oh yeah earplugs would have been necessary if I had stayed any longer. But when you walk into a drum convention that's kinda what I'd expect to experience. It's a great time

[@ironblast5]

The jupiter rides are so tasty

[@randywoolum2648]

At 10:04 I didn't know Booger played drums!

[@letmeshowumypkmn]

1:03 hehe... rock music

[@thebeat]

I have the same shirt as the guy at 2 minute 40 second. He got it at UNIQLO

[@qwe1231]

Wing Thing looks decent, but I'd prefer something lighter/cheaper made of carbon fiber.

[@antoniokofoed7139]

My friends drum company was there. Spinelli Drums

[@pleaseandthankyou4161]

All we need is some sort of drum booth technology that can contain 100% of drum sound.

[@65Drums]

I think it's already possible, you'd have to put a cage inside of another cage. But it's just stupid expensive to pull off

[@pleaseandthankyou4161]

@@65Drums True, that might be a complicated and expensive build. I’m currently working on software that can take in any low or high volume input using standard drum mics and transforming it in real time to a quality drum sound. It’s not sending midi or triggering a sample but using the input as a building block to augment and transform the sounds using machine learning. It’s quite challenging but I want to settle the electronic vs acoustic debate forever. With low volume input (mesh heads and lv cymbals) you can call it electronic if you want but it’s essentially acoustic but great sounding. You can then use brushes or rods and the system trains the models as you play making it better over time. Essentially any sound getting passed in can be transformed even the squeak of your drum throne or bass pedal. But yeah, lots of stupidly complicated work ahead.

[@SydneyDrums]

Drum shows are like the music charts nowadays.. it's all been done before and it's the same old same old or some weird obscure idea that isn't going to take off.. I did like the wrench for wing nuts/bolts on the drum kit, why hasn't someone thought of that before

[@65Drums]

I'm not there to get my world rocked. I want to see some cool looking drums, see what the weird inventors are cooking up, have a good time, and leave. I'm not actually buying anything, it's just a museum full of interesting stuff to see. You could say the same thing about any mature industry. I don't go to car shows to say: "it's all been done before" and "all these new inventions are gimmicks" I'm there to have a good time and celebrate the hobby.

[@nakim55]

That wrench did look interesting.

[@Cloudw1024]

Cant believe im first but this vid boutta be fire

[@65Drums]

you know it!

[@PlaneTrotter]

Unbelievable that yamaha still has the balls to show their crappy rh hihat after all these years 😂

[@EngineerSaysWhat]

As a drummer, I finally get how much guitarists hate this noise.

[@jamesbarron601]

skipped Coopergroove booth?

[@panhandle-123]

Man it's just gone crazy.It's like anything goes now. The weirder the better, the crazier, it seems. The more it will sell. I'm glad I'm retired.

[@65Drums]

Think of this like a car show. There’s going to be crazy cars that show up to a car show. But you still end up going to a Toyota dealership and buying a Corolla. Drum shows for me, are just for the fun of it. We don’t need to take it so seriously.

[@iternityhuman1782]

NiCe!!!

[@SpoogPuff]

Was the live audio actually necessary? lol

[@65Drums]

I tried adding in music to a convention walkthrough of NAMM, and people HATED it. I learned my lesson, live audio gets the least number of complaints, so that's what I'm sticking with.

[@prhmusic]

I can't go to this type of thing. I would overspend like I had no mortgage or any monthly bills!!😊😊

[@65Drums]

You don't even want to know what some of these kits cost haha!

[@jameswise7719]

I am sad at every convention Or clinic I have ever attended And there have been many . No one ever had a kit of any kind Set up for a true left handed player Such as myself . It boggles my mind that drum techs do not set at least one kit up in the left-hand configuration. Granted, I can play right handed, but not to the best of my ability. Are we Really still that much of a minority?

[@morgunstyles7253]

Its a shame the junk, that drummers are pushed into playing these days.
