Chad Szeliga Drum Lesson #5 Part 1

[@BMhocky17]

Yeh dude, finally a drummer with common sense! Chad incorporates so much creativity and skill into his drumming, nobody can match him. Seriously how many drummers can add so many ghost notes and variations into their beats AND be able to repeat it? The only reason hes not listed as on of the top drummers is because hes not a BIG mainstream artist, not enough people hear him

[@admiralkts]

i love that little stick flip he does occasionaly it looks so cool

[@nirvana19791979]

man that kit sounds amazing

[@dy7an5]

LOL when he first started playing that kick ass fill that shut up all the other noise xD

[@Graysonb1234]

[@kenanjabr]

[@pround30lithuanian]

"Dude, I'm like taking a shower dude. Like what the hell?" Rotflmao!

[@AlanM11Drums]

@Blizzard0008 Where did you hear that?

[@BMhocky17]

, man....I love Hard Rock fans! they actually understand!, buty yeh I agree with you, Niel Peart and the other legendary drummers are thee best, but out of this new generation of rock drummers I think Chad is the best

[@1991DutchDrummer]

damn I like that intro !

[@punk9999643]

Haha, hell yeah man. And he's singing "With arms wide open" by Creed.

[@ntfd125]

@stu741zyphia158 yes he uses Vic Firth

[@viswow]

singing Creed great band

[@TheKylesauce]

When I play this song, I'm sweating before the into's even over. He's just chillin the whole song like.. "whatever"

[@skymatt8604]

@TheGorsepig007 the fill at the end of firefly was jeremy hummel not chad szeliga

[@nortsoldier]

the starts actually quite funny what the hell! LOL

[@Huitzel]

yep...thats chad!

[@GHKRBK2007]

[@dpdrums]

blow me away, haha its a song by them! nice reference

[@Guser223]

FUCKING AMAZING!!!

[@sinflo2]

Does Ben give some lessons too? O.o

[@GaryLee123]

Its coming out this year lol...

[@haybayhearts]

[@stu741zyphia158]

@Gribbs81406 ok, do you know how i can prove it? he doesnt leave his house alot so i cant really have a picture, he old and cant move well so he always indoors

[@TheDarkdude213]

A good drummer(I mad hes not good hes amazing) makes a drum track like this look easy

[@punk9999643]

@oblivionwatershed Why not?

[@Zept41]

no probaly...he IS the best drummer ever!

[@zzzz-sf5lr]

I would agree except Morgan rose from sevendust....

[@fmbighair]

yeah, i actually like the tom intro better without the double, helk, take off the double kick too while yer at it! I think it just sounds more tribal that way, i don't think tribes used double bass back then, lol..definitly has that "Judith" vibe...great drummer, good chops

[@optionaxis]

you mean the half sticking?

[@MilesC1993]

How do you pronounce his last name?

[@vezok716]

chad uses double bass?

[@Powerfuzz18]

I wish i could afford that many cymbals...

[@punk9999643]

Jesus! THERE IS NO BEST!

[@BMhocky17]

yeh yeh yeh, i know those drummers are actually the best but I mean like hes the best out of this new generation of rock, those drummers were not only in this generation but the last

[@KcRoCkS101]

lol. chad was singin the chorus of with arms wide open by creed when he was in the shower at the beggining. lol.

[@itsthatguywithtwotoe]

Dude im like taking a shower dude what the hell?!

[@Paparder]

cobus and the drummer from sterr pwn asw

[@southsidemikevlogs]

lol how can they do that to chad he is a pretty cool guy

[@MilesC1993]

@kseadam8907 thanks

[@eyesofobsidian]

@Shadowjak101 he's a christian.

[@Shadowjak101]

@Blizzard0008 Yeah seems a bit odd for him to be wearing that necklace in the video and play songs called "Evil Angel" and "Dance with the Devil".. not to mention the Phobia album cover kinda looks like someone getting crucified o.o

[@ragnargrimnar]

@eeaves They're not a Christian band, but some of them are Christians. There is a difference though people.

[@skater15153]

it's not sloppy...it's lose...he is relaxed like you should be

[@punk9999643]

I dont see it...

[@juicyking97]

thats wrong. he uses a double pedal. if u watch the video where his drum tech is giving a tour of his set, he uses yamaha flying dragon double pedals.

[@oblivionwatershed]

breaking benjamin got a few great singles that i really enjoy listening,but personally,they should have hair,like long hair to suit their music.right now they look like they are in a boyband.

[@thetrueawesomeeric]

He's playing in 6/8. Maybe a double paradidlle, But a single paradddille would be kind of akward in 6/8.

[@cerx7]

In your dreams :)

[@fisk0411]

still sucks that Jeremy wasn't half the drummer Chad is..

[@stu741zyphia158]

he wouldnt happen to use Vic Firth drum sticks would he? i just found out that Vic Firth lives literally 2 houses down from me! chad if you want free drum sticks you better move here quick

[@frygno]

ahahah i!m from poland i i hes surname szeliga

[@BMhocky17]

man he is THEE the best drummer, way better then Joey Jordison and Travis Barker, hes to underrated for most people to see that though, anyway is he actually singing a real song in the beginning(while in the shower) or is that just typical shower singing?

[@punk9999643]

Ohh, haha.

[@oblivionwatershed]

i juz discover abt this guy like 5mins ago,already i'm into the stuff he is doing..from the way he plays i could tell he uses his influences from other drummers to suit his playing style.excellent skill he got..but i still thk his band breaking benjamin is not that great,sorry no offence to any BB fans..

[@stu741zyphia158]

@ntfd125 he better move near me if he wants free drum sticks...and im not lieing about vic firth living near me...ask me to prove it if you dont believe me

[@nortsoldier]

i admit he is better then jeremy he has such a frelaxed way of playing.

[@piero1096]

lol

[@Iwanete]

is good but,.,., /user/drumteacher76

[@mememe154222]

ummm chad is better because jermery fing screwed Breaking Benjamin

[@punk9999643]

No offence dude, but music isn't about looks, and looks are a really bad reason to dislike a band. They dress like normal people. And I'm gonna have to disagree, they don't look like they're in a boy band, just normal looking people.
