Dave Lombardo Playing Slayer Songs

These are videos of Dave Lombardo doing a drum master class in Belfast, in April 2 2015, it was an amazing night he did discussions, playing drums and giving advice, I also got to meet the master himself after the show :) hope you enjoy :)

[@christopherbell4543]

Dave Lombardo taking requests and answering questions? Are you kidding me? This is better than any VIP experience ever.

[@davidhealy4534]

And he comes across as such a cool down to earth guy

[@mayowaade879]

My lord, he is so normal, humble and human for such a pioneer.

[@heidivilder4161]

its amazing how he can bring the sound of the whole band... with just the drums !!.. i can littaraly hear the rest of the band here :)

[@43stevox]

Heidi vilder Great point, you absolutely can.

[@vitunpelle602]

Its not that he can bring the band, youve just heard the songs a million times, if you heard angel of death on just guitar, you could hear the scream and double bass on drums in your head.

[@Pratt-zp5mr]

As an "older guy" trying to learn how to play some of the Lombardo/Benante speed style, I can clearly "feel" in the video when the tempo is pushed and where I would start to tense up/ play quieter in an effort to stay "at speed". Dave and Charlie are and look so relaxed and play at normal volume and are still musical; not just going full tilt in an endurance exercise. Quite inspiring! Can't imagine being this close to him and feeling the punch of those bass drums being played at that volume!

[@alc4117]

You know how iconic Lombardo is when you get excited when you hear him play that very simple rock beat. Like somehow he makes it sound like it’s his trademark beat

[@Standbackforscience]

This guy was the heart of Slayer's sound, and also the best overall drummer in metal to boot. Not a bad feat.

[@cl7510]

Standbackforscience agreed, Slayer just isn’t Slayer without Lombardo. No offense to Bostaph, but Lombardo just completes their sound. Too bad the way things went down. I’m hoping Suicidal plays again at the punk rock camping show next year. I’ll be there for sure. Seeing Lombardo play live is definitely bucket list for me.
