Amazing Drum Solo by Marco Minnemann

The Aristocrats - Tres Caballeros Tour in Hong Kong (20160929)

[@themetalhammer9406]

This guy is a clock, a metronome, a magician, a showman and a drummer all at the same time

[@tomtrana3449]

A Percussionist! A lot of drummers are not Percussionists!

[@plummetplum]

One of the most technical drummers I've seen, a perfect match for Guthrie.

[@Sterra-ot7ss]

There are no words to describe this. Truly a legendary performance

[@jondeberg2060]

Know what I love about watching him the most? You can really see his love for the art he produces.

[@jondeberg2060]

Cool.

[@heathscheibmeir8011]

Man-I have watched many, many vids of him but I can’t remember him ever tearing it up like this! Unbelievable skills, and having a blast at the same time-mad props to you Marco!

[@shawnbruce6934]

This Was Very Different. Fking Fire.

[@karimgroove]

"Yeah.....but can he groove?" :-D Marco is such an impeccably rounded drummer. Killer chops, amazing musicality and his grooves are so tasteful. Hands down, one of my favorite drummers of all time!

[@oakt8292]

Probably the tightest, fastest, most versatile drummer you will ever see. amazing!!

[@larrytate1657]

Which pedal does he use the Dw 5000 or 9?

[@johnsoos6907]

elboogero Just because you can't comprehend Terry's art, doesn't mean you should put him down. He's not only one of the best drummers, in history, but one of the best musicians.

[@a.barnard3205]

@elboogero * Sorry dude, but BOZZIO can STILL out drum this chap with HALF of the effort. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3W0dmtoetGsgMk

[@a.barnard3205]

@@larrytate1657 * It really doesn't matter, because YOU will NEVER be a monster drummer. Your "pedal choice" has NOTHING to do with your skill...….

[@a.barnard3205]

@WhoDarestheMAN gamer No he couldn't.

[@joshtarnow492]

Here is a serious question..does Marco EVER not smile? I love his positivity..he said it best during the Dream Theater audition..if you give the audience energy they give it back!

[@franciscojavierruiz7219]

At times, with such tremendous efforts some persons are not relaxed enough to smile. Perhaps I am mistaken, but this guy is massively positive.....

[@steevidrums]

Do you ever wonder how he'd have faired in DT? I have admired Mike Mangini's playing since I first heard him with Extreme in 1994, but in that DT audition, I dunno, I felt Marco Grooved just a little more. But, if the video is to be believed, Mike wanted the gig way more than Marco. That seemed perhaps more the winning vote. Can't say it was a wrong decision, but I am talking purely the drumming side.

[@Cigarsnguitars]

Holy Moses. The Energizer Bunny is alive and well in the person of Marco Minnemann. Amazing solo!!

[@stephenriddensdale5919]

One of the very best drum solos I have ever seen or watched...EVER Absolutely amazing

[@jasonslabaugh5783]

I tossed my drum sticks in trash after watching this lol

[@alanvaughan2937]

How to make a very long solo NOT boring at truly one of the best ...he just doesn't let up

[@wphh7272]

Damn! My first time experiencing him but DAYUM!

[@uglugl54]

Nothing but the Top in techniques and physics. I've never seen something like this. Congratulations and respect, Marco!

[@tomtrana3449]

Pure energy! Filigree! Technical skill at the highest level. Tangible and visible joy in playing.

[@kingcrimson234]

Metronomes look for a place to hide when Marco walks into the room.

[@ZrankFappaH]

3:14 sounds like Hot for teacher. I’ve seen marco drum solo live and honestly, the man’s a god. He was so friendly and permanently cheerful. His smile made me smile.

[@franciscojavierruiz7219]

Marco, by far, is one of the best of all time. His positive attitude is also of enormous importance.

[@voronOsphere]

Yay, Zildjian! My favorite cymbals! I didn't think anyone used them anymore!!!!

[@billbart6201]

Ultra human speed precision and energy. Contagious fun. Bravo🙏

[@TheDaddrummer]

Awesome! Hard to believe Dream Theater passed on him. He plays with so much feel. Not just mechanical.

[@elfyrulais]

they didn't passed on him, if i remember correctly Marco is the one who didn't accept their terms, the band wanted him to be full time with them and Marco wouldn't be allowed to have other projects. Don't know if this is accurate but that's what i remember.

[@by-torandthesnowdog1647]

not only did Dreamtheater pass on him but Steven Wilson let him go check out live playing with Steven Wilson live in Mexico City song luminol killer musicianship especially Marco

[@GRILLBUOY101]

I know they had some amazing talent audition virgil!! marco

[@davidderoux7552]

@@elfyrulais that's not true!

[@almo9004]

​@@elfyrulais Accurate; In an interview with Ultimate Guitar, Marco said "There might be something along those lines that we could collaborate, but if I had been in Dream Theater, I would have given up the most of my activities like The Aristocrats, which are my band and that’s my home."

[@CarlosmanuelChavezayuso-gi5qy]

Great Talent Drummer Marco 👏 👏👏👏👍👌👋

[@smorgdonkey]

He played a solo while drumming for Satriani years ago that brought the house down and he got the biggest ovation that I think that I have ever witnessed.

[@voronOsphere]

2:17 An amazing tip of the hat to Terry Bozzio!

[@metalbaby7119]

Was so original and fun to watch

[@stevenr5149]

this one ranks up there. thanks for posting this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@RasputinPrime75]

There are a select few drummers in the world that are on a shelf that are higher and above the rest of the drummers in the world...Marco is right above even that shelf. He's on that shelf that's hard to reach that nobody can ever seem to get a feather duster to. Not many drummers are sitting up there next to him. That Elite shelf.

[@TomdeSabla]

Very musical. Cool!

[@josephgiarraffa6379]

Why do I see Buddy Rich influence besides his crazy double bass and his own craziness Just great !!!

[@quadproper]

After seeing this, The Animal from The Muppets quit playing drums

[@scottyahney8565]

A BEAST !!!!!!

[@danjones8393]

I had to share your art with my social media feed. True talent should be acknowledged and rewarded. Cheers bro. Keep rocking.

[@ferdinandwang1165]

It's good that he has trimmed down his kit. Stewart Copeland did the same when he had to play at a Beatles dedication gig and he realised that 'without all of these drums in the way, I could really play! I could really groove without all of these drums everywhere.' Less toms means more movement.

[@kingcrimson234]

I did this once. I can do it again, I just don't feel like it right now.

Great German drummer, great drummer. Was invited to the Dream Theater auditions in 2011 (or was it 2010?) which says a lot about his drumming abilities.

He is 1000 % great! As has been!

[@TheAnalogkid5]

So easy a caveman can do it. Oh wait, that’s Marco not the Geico guy. 😁. Marco’s technique is outstanding and you can tell he has spent countless hours practicing and mastering his craft.

It still baffles me how Dream Theater decided to pass on this guy. Imagine what the last two records would have been like with Marco on the kit 🤔

I saw him with Guthrie Govan. I saw Dream Theater four times, all with Portnoy. But I loved the Guthrie Govan concert. Three guys who really complimented each other.

Tama Snare?

[@JohnDoe-qo4xd]

MultiSkyman1 ; I Think he goes pure DW these days. It's kind of of demand from the makers, and gets more greens in the wallet of the players.

[@MultiSkyman1]

Probably some second line kit of sorts. No bass drum logo either.

[@JohnDoe-qo4xd]

MultiSkyman1 ; Yup, at these levels they pretty much get their stuff tailor made, except when demo certain lines.

I'll never understand why the crowd goes crazy when the cymbals are crashing. That's the least interesting part of the chops. But Marco has all of them.
