Danny Carey Drum Cam Pneuma Live (Reaction!) | the focus, the complexity | LEGEND

[@RoadLessTraveledMedia]

I'm sure its been said, but Danny is called the Octopus of the drummer world. He's easily considered one of the best drummers of all time (debates to be had about genres and periods, but I think this speaks for itself)

[@hshura09]

True about Danny being one of the best, but Horacio Hernandez (El Negro) is the octopus and you can see why if you check him out

[@RoadLessTraveledMedia]

@@hshura09 no disagreement - I think its fine to have octopuses across genres :) that's why its really impossible to have a GOAT in music, really.

[@onylra6265]

@@hshura09 Danny actually reminds me of a viper. The speed and power in such economical movement, his perfect poise. He's mesmerizing to watch closely.

[@zackliedke2210]

I agree with you but for some reason I go back and forth with Danny and Jimmy Chamberlain.

[@wfly81]

I'm a huge Rush fan, and for a long time, I would've called Neil Peart the GOAT. But I think Danny has surpassed him...and that's ok, and I'm cool with that. And I think Neil would be cool with that, because it's a case of the student becoming the master. Danny learned by listening to Neil, and I think Neil would be proud that Danny is taking the craft to even higher heights. Yes, and of course Danny's study of percussion has drawn from several drummers and percussionists across many genres and cultures. But Neil has always been at the core of his style.

[@hillbillyheadspace]

The involuntary smiles that Danny's playing creates is one of the biggest reasons I keep coming back to these reaction videos

[@bbruteparris]

I have a feeling you may cry with joy at their concert

[@memomoto990]

Dont need to be at this concert dude. Im crying in front of my shitty screen..

[@sararenee382]

I wish I could experience Tool again for the first time. They were my dad’s favorite band. Every time I hear this song, I feel a part of him watching me. You’re spot on in them being very spiritual.

[@deadohiosky1701]

I have a teenage daughter with your name who will likely one day say the same thing about me.

[@Александр-у8й6д]

Where is An Idiot Abroad? Who carres about these boring videos?

[@BennyAscent]

@@Александр-у8й6д if you're overseas from me, i'd consider you an idiot abroad.

[@butIforgotmypen...]

I have a close friend, and her dad's favorite band was also Tool. He passed away weeks before being able to seem them live, so she took his photo with her when she went to see them. She sent me a photo of them together, so when I went to see Tool here in Berlin, he was able to see it with me. He's now traveling with me as I see several concerts this year.

[@VatnikSlayer2799]

The keyboard is called a marimba lumina and he plays it during the song Invincible. The electronic drum pads that Danny uses are called Mandala pads that he co-produced himself. The other electronic drum is called a Korg Wavedrum. He'll probably wear a Karl Malone jersey to SLC. Unless he has a Gobert or Mitchell jersey. I'm seeing Tool in Miami where I expect to see him in a DWade jersey.

[@fatwhiteguy795]

You know, I've seen them three times in SLC, and I never bothered to check whose number he wears. Seeing them again in Jan, so I'll have to pay attention this time.

[@j.t.3798]

This really gives you a new appreciation for these artists. They've mastered their craft. The art that creative, dedicated humans can create.... Incredible!

[@joejacobsen6822]

And even at the level that Danny plays, he still doesn't take a step back and think how good he is. He just keeps sharpening his blade.

[@rostislavkunchev3021]

I was introduced to tool and opened myself to their music just a couple of months ago and ever since I feel the need and hunger for it and to share it is so good. Multidimensional feelings

[@PowderedToastMan420]

Danny's drumsticks look like hummingbird wings in his hands. ✌

[@georgeking1996]

Neil Peart is the drummer for Rush. May he Rest In Peace. Danny actually says at every awards show appearance that he thanks Neil by name every time. I can’t wait till after your concert experience and hear what you have to say. It’s a spiritual journey. Visual effects are out of this world. I’m guessing you should probably do a TOOL reaction a day so you can know what to expect. Great reaction as always

[@johnswanger8474]

Yes, this. TooL is complete in the live performance. You get to visually and sonically immerse into them. There's this symbiosis that takes place if you're into it. Like a sort of sensory amplification tank. Fragment into motes and spiral out.

[@robertjones4361]

Danny was a basketball prospect at Kansas U, however he chose to go to LA and pursue his musical dream, Tool is a very big band so they play all of the NBA arenas in North America, so he gets a custom uniform from every team when they play those arenas...this video was shot in Boston...hence the Bird jersey, he wore an Allen Iverson Jersey the next night in Philly and he wore his cousins Kansas U jersey in AC New Jersey two nights later....it's pretty badass

[@MalindaBevin76]

It makes my heart happy to see we have converted yet another! Welcome to the Tool Army!! We are mighty!! 🖤 The best part to me is watching how much fun Danny is having! We all wonder how he does it, while he makes it look easy!!!

[@A5p3r07h]

Danny is one of the scariest beings on the planet. Not just because he's 9,000 years old, AND STILL JACKED It's his mind. It's terrifying. Watch the beginning. He shifts around until his spine is in place. Once it is, his shoulders hardly ever move. Once he's locked in, the tentacles go to work. I see why they call him The Octopus.

[@heighleybaily8037]

That's where talent and dedication can get you, what an inspiration

[@stupidtool]

Don't shame yourself! It's no sin to momentarily forget Neil Peart's name when you're neck-deep in the backend of an increasingly climaxing Danny Carey drum solo. We've all been there.

[@xtravagentk1275]

To be fair, it's one of the only times where it's forgivable to forget haha.

[@Hisdudeness9500]

Hell, I've forgotten MY name during some of these.

[@MaynardsSpaceship]

That drum cam is my favorite video on the internet.

[@klipfellgames1158]

watched it MANY times.

[@blahhrawrr]

YESSSSSSSSS IVE BEEN WAITING TY

[@tiamat29]

Thank you so much for watching this with us! I really hoped you would! Im glad to see that im not the only one that FEELS these songs, and gets the emotion. I love seeing you try to hold back the emotion in some, if not most,of these songs. TOOL is one of very few bands that hits me in one way or another almost every listen. And ive been a fan since about 1994-1995, when i first watched the video for SOBER. I was hooked immediately. Something so dark, yet so enlightening at the same time. Love it! Keep it up! Spiral Out!!!

[@katarzynagrygierczyk682]

I can’t count how many times I’ve seen your reaction to Danny Carey drum cam . When I saw your smile and excited I almost cried because I have the same ! saw this drum cam milion times and every reaction on it on yt, I have never enough . You are my favourite ! Fear innoculum is a masterpiece . The best album ever . Greetings from Poland ❤️

[@tonysoto8949]

Danny is a die hard Lakers fan. Ran into him at Pavilions on Pacific Coast and he had a #8 Kobe jersey. The reason he has on. A Celtic uniform is because Danny wears the cities basketball teams best players uni during the concert there. In Philadelphia he wears an Iverson uni, Atlanta Dominique, Boston Larry Bird which in this case the team his name Carey on the jersey. He lives in Malibu so he runs around town only in Laker gear.

[@christopherwelsh7008]

It is fitting that this song includes the lyric "Eyes full of wonder" It was great to watch you live that lyric.

[@thal1]

That last part gets me everytime

[@SparkimusPrime]

Yes! I was waiting for this one! 🖤 Danny is an absolute legend 🖤🐙🐐

[@eltrono22]

Can’t wait to see them in a few weeks too @ the Maverick Center! See u there! 🤘

[@SebsDuran]

Let’s go!!!

[@ryanb7665]

It's awesome that you're going to see them live! I'm seeing them in March. This is my advice to prep before the show. React to the following songs off of Fear Inoculum, because they will be paying them. Invincible, Fear Inoculum, maybe Descending and 7empest. This is so you can be singing along when you're there. Can't wait for this to change your life.

[@tiamat29]

And it will! Ive seen them 7 times, and I cant wait to make it 8! and 9! and 10!

[@briankachelman]

@16:01 I agree...I can see how much you love what you do!!! I know it is cliche and has been said over and over again... But I do wish I could experience this live cam video again for the first time. I love seeing how Danny's playing is mesmerizing you... I was the same way when I first saw this. As a muscian myself, I noticed the crazy polyrhythms and the ease of how he changes time signatures throughout the song. I can't wait to see your next reaction my dude!

[@jacket5456]

This is one of the best Live Videos of any band I've ever seen. Big shout out to Vic Firth for having this video produced and edited this way.

[@TP-mw6fo]

I love these videos! Subbed for TOOL!

[@paquipeon9735]

I’m so happy and excited for you getting to see them live. Prepare to have mind blown🤯. Spiral Out!

[@minjamike]

That "I'd hit it" comment caught me off guard! Damn that was funny!!

[@siloo1]

The symbols on the trigger pads are called Unicursal Hexagrams, made "popular" by the early 20th century occultist Aleister Crowley. Danny is a well-known practitioner of the occult and is a huge "fan" of Crowley. And of course, he is an AMAZING drummer!

[@100Peaks]

We share your joy in watching a master loving what he does.

[@korylinn2251]

I’m 44 years old and got hooked on reaction videos about a year or 2 ago. I was wondering why. It occurred to me that people like you (who find true joy in discovering the bands I love) are reacting how I wish my friends & family would when I try to show them. So thank you for filling that void ❤️

[@coolhand62]

Open Invitation - I have a prime suite at the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ for the 2/26 show. Taking my nephew and grandnephew to the show. This is an open invitation to come see the show in my suite. I know it's far, but so worth it, as you'll find out on 1/25.

[@shresthabageshwar2671]

Sebs! its so fun watching you love and appreciate the song as well as the musicianship. Also the fact that you are going to be seeing them live makes me vicariously happy. This band is what I've been listening throughout 2021 and made me appreciate music in a whole new way. Watching you in awe of the music makes me excited. Cheers man!

[@synystera]

Danny Carey is amazing, but lets not forget Mr. Sebs keeping the constant 4/4 on a treadmill throughout the song.

[@coralinecat4755]

Flying from eastern Canada to Ohio in March to see this man. This band in concert is going to be a spiritual event. Enjoy!

[@GobRogan]

This has to be the best example of perfect drumming on KZbin. I’ve watched this video 50x of Danny and counting

[@strwbrryswisher420]

This is the one I've been waiting for. Hope you enjoy this work of art, that this 60 year old magician, puts on Edit: Neil Peart is the Rush drummer btw.

[@woundsofthecrisis]

subbed for this, good stuff

[@woundsofthecrisis]

love tool man, this is a great song.....such an amazing band

[@soccerwizard975]

I think you're ready for a back to back listening. Either listen to the two version of "Pushit" they have (original on Aenima album, self cover on the Salival album) OR listen to Wings for Marie followed by 10,000 days (2 part song off the album 10,000 days). They get into the more experimental side of TOOL more like Pneuma than Aenima.

[@MostlyCloudy]

Great suggestions

[@claywangerin9423]

Pushit is my favorite child of Tool, the live version even better. That whole salival album is 🔥, I'm definitely pushing for the Maynard's Mom saga also

[@tiamat29]

this right here!!!! Hes right, you know?!?!

[@MalindaBevin76]

Wings for Marie 1 and 2 make me cry every time. He will need to listen to Perfect Circle- Judith for the trifecta!

[@BillCoz]

@Big Homie Steve The Metal Head There are other APC/Puscifer songs about Maynard's mom, Momma Sed, probably Orestes, I'm sure there are others.

[@criscles]

Be. Prepared. For an intense visceral experience. They are true masters of their craft - mentally, visually, sonically.

[@bdufrene27]

I've WATCHED THIS 500 TIMES AND I STILL GET JACKED UP LIKE I DID THE FIRST TIME!! DC IS JUST MAGNIFICENT!!!! HE IS THE MASTER OF HIS CRAFT!!! TRULY THE HUMAN OCTOPUS!!!!!

[@dan.j.boydzkreationz]

I was 23 when I saw them live the first time, and at my most recent one, I was 42. Wonder if I'll ever see them again...

[@Zeta9966]

The keyboard thing behind him is used on a Fear Inoculum song. Can’t remember which one… I think Descending. Also the symbol on the drum pads are also the name of the drum pads. Mandala. And they’re special because different spots create different sounds. Which is unusual. Designed in conjunction with him.

[@adamskimtb]

Highly recommend O'Keefe Music Foundation Kids Cover 46 and 2. Awesome!!!

[@angeladall3647]

I am thankful for this reaction. You're seeing them in SLC in January? I'm seeing them January 11th @ the Tacoma Dome. This will be my 6th time seeing them live. I was meant to see them May 14, 1992 @ the Outhouse in Lawrence, KS but went into labor and gave birth to my daughter instead. ❤

[@rexdink]

In his rider, he has the arena provide him a jersey from the team which plays in/closest to where they are playing. This was in Boston. When he plays in Salt Lake, he will have a Jazz jerzy with number of Malone or Stockton.

[@maldad9073]

His default choices are the Lakers, his favorite pro team and the Kansas Jayhawks where he grew up. Both times I've seen them in Vegas he was rocking the KU gear.

[@thetko909]

You will have even more appreciation for the music once you see them live. I will see them in January in SoCal for the 3rd time this tour...2x's at Staples Center and now Honda Center. I have seen Tool ever tour but one since Lollapalooza at Shoreline Amphitheater in 1993 and I am amazed every time...!!!! Enjoy the Top Shelf sir..!!!!

[@ShoNuff3K]

Don't expect Maynard to face the crowd. Saw them way back and dude stood behind the drum set the whole concert.

[@ShoNuff3K]

He was totally different when I saw A Perfect Circle in concert. Out front and playing with the crowd.

[@ashdott77]

I’m excited for you to experience them live. It will change your life! See you there 🌀🤘

[@mwkrantz21]

one of my favorite videos... they slapped a go pro on every angle they could for this.... i love how their music live is as perfect as the album versions. been a tool nerd for 20 years

[@tonysoto8949]

I have been lucky enough to watch Neil Peart with Rush live in concert, Dave Grohl with Nirvana live in Concert, and a few others who are considered great, and having also seen Danny Carey live and in concert with TOOL and in a Pub playing with friends of his I can honestly say Danny is the GOAT. RIP Neil Peart and I’m sure he looks down from heaven and says yea that Carey boy can play.

[@SebsDuran]

Beautiful homage

[@epicmage82]

My favorite Tool song. Might even be my favorite song period. It helps with anxiety, and relaxation for me anyway.

[@ErraziBProductionS]

[@jonathancapps1103]

Man, you're fortunate to get the opportunity to see them. I wasn't able to when they came to NC in 2019, and I'm hoping they won't wait *too* long before coming back around.

[@scottcorboy2410]

No disrespect to John Bonham (R.I.P) because he was an absolute beast at his craft but Danny Carey is greatest drummer of all time imo. Almost defies logic what he can do. Love your Tool reactions so glad that you have found them. You definitely need to react to 7empest from the Fear Inoculum album. Quite possibly their greatest achievement as a song. Danny and Justin doing their usual beast mode in driving the beat but Adam Jones is the standout on this song. His solo work in the middle of the song with Danny and Justin smashing the backbeat is possibly greatest piece of music I've ever heard. Its no fluke that it won the Grammy for Best Metal Performance despite it being a 15 minute song. You won't regret it. Tuning in from little old New Zealand 👋

I've watched this performance 100's of times. Caught the live show 1/29/20 Nashville, before covid. And watching, again, with you, is the first time I (you) noticed the Larry jersey with his name on it. 🤷‍♂️

[@wfly81]

Notice his posture. A lot of rock drummers (even good rock drummers) hunch over their kit. But Danny has perfect posture, and keeps his head up. That's to keep his abdominal core tight, which is key to precision and and consistency.
