I legit gasped when you said you would throw it out! It needs to be up in some sort of museum or something. Idk you, sum 41, blink, NFG really put Pop Punk on the map my guy.

[@stevo32drums]

Thanks man! I will figure out how to do get into the right person's hands!

[@Sandweiche]

I know Fat Mike has a Punk Rock Museum he runs out of Vegas. You could get it out to him. The dude even lets people play the instruments, so it's not like it'll be retiring. Way better than a trash can (although those make sick drums as well)​@@stevo32drums

[@lostplanetairmen204]

A punk museum of sorts, with memorabilia from past punk musicians.. they could call it "The Museum Of Punk Rock Music" and maybe it could be in Reno..or Atlantic City!

[@pezboy715]

LOL I can’t believe you found a way to tie Sum into “Hawk Tuah”. You were born to make Internet videos, mi amigo. 😂

[@stevo32drums]

Someone had suggested the connection to me on Insta so I figured I would take it all the way!

[@chrisveltman1795]

You’ve got to think that Deryck has watched this and is thinking…”we’ve got to bring Stevo back for one more show.” Toronto? Maybe a practice show at Pioneertown?

[@nathanwilliams3049]

Around 2002 I was a full blown junkie dodging HIV and overdoses ,this song absolutely was in my CD player on repeat giving me strength to try to not get AIDS or die from an overdose ,after several close calls I dodged both of them ,ending up in a psych ward at the end of 2003 after committing a felony . You have no idea how important this song was to me at that time in my life,and frankly it’s the gift that keeps giving ,I’m sober now and a yoga teacher to teens in psych wards and adults in jail and I can’t wait to play Sum 41 in my classes!

[@Zalex09]

Don't throw away this drum head! It's a piece of history. It was last used on April 9th 2013, in Kingston Ontario. You guys were touring with Billy Talent. I was there on stage for that show. Never crossed my mind it would be the last time I would see you play with the sums ;)

[@stevo32drums]

That was indeed the last show!

[@nicholasvallas9802]

That’s embarrassing. Sum 41 suuucks

[@xMcWeenx]

Oh wow Billy Talent (or Pez on whatever first CD I have from them). Haven't really thought about them since I saw them play with My Chemical Romance.

[@joereynolds3354]

I think this guy deserves the drum head!

[@Aric--]

A lot of us are big fans...this guy deserves the head....hawk tuah

[@MarkRiches]

Dude! I loved Sum 41 20 years ago and then moved on to other stuff and forgot all about them. Your YT channel was randomly recommended recently and it's been a BLAST! I ended up checking if Sum 41 still tour and what are the odds, farewell tour went on sale yesterday. Grabbed a couple tickets. Sorry to see you aren't involved anymore but glad you're happy and rocking it! Cheers

[@stevo32drums]

Thanks for checking it out! Hope you had a nice time at the show!

[@scrimmybingus1118]

sum 41 is a band that had such a massive inspiration on me and my cousin, i remember re-recording the hell song video with him with our own action figures and showing our parents our masterpiece haha

[@stevo32drums]

That's awesome!

[@TheDanieel]

Another banger video. Stevo you should react to some clips from the old Sum 41 Introduction to Destruction DVD from 2002. When you guys are messing around in your hometown, water gun drive-bys, dancing in the parking lot, etc. Those clips already have the band providing commentary so it would be sorta meta or hat on a hat, but why not.

[@stevo32drums]

I will definitely do that ... i might be interesting to get 42 year old's take on me being an 16 year old idiot

[@MediaPastimes]

I remember watching the Fuse TV series called "Loaded" back in the day. It was just 30 minute blocks of music videos by one particular artist. When this video came up during the Sum 41 episode - my brother, mom, and I were absolutely transfixed by it. Truly a testament to simplicity sometimes being better than flashy garbage.

[@TheDangerOfBoredKids]

"Does This Look Infected?" Is my favorite Sum 41 album! Thanks for playing this song! You should definitely give away that drum head!

[@evanwhite8377]

One of my favourite songs and videos by Sum 41 “hells yeah, everybody’s gonna be there” is a phrase I have never stopped saying since this videos release! And give away the drum head!! You were a huge influence in my drumming when I was a kid.

[@stevo32drums]

Thanks - i forgot to mention that that is Marc Klasfeld's voice delivering that line in the opening

[@S0ckless]

STEVO can you show Thanks For Nothing some love? That song has some great fills and double kick and is one of the rare songs with you doing vocals. I'm very happy you're gracing us with your precence on KZbin, I've loved your drumming since I was a kid and have missed having you around!

[@stevo32drums]

I will do a video on that one for sure!

[@doloresturo6550]

I remember it being the beginning of 2003, I was freshly 13 years old. I walked into my first music lesson and told the guy I’m just here to learn how to rock and asked him to teach me how to play the hell song. I’m 34 and still play drums in a band 🤘

[@bournedrummer]

seeing the genuine happiness on your face whilst watching the old Sum videos is so wholesome 🥰 still rocking on the kit as well, keep these videos coming🤘🏼❤️

[@thequantumduckling]

As a drummer that went through my late teens when this album came out I can't explain how much I love these videos. I had this CD on permanent repeat in my first car. This is the best sort of nostalgia.

[@stevo32drums]

That's cool - thanks man!

[@caesarorzell600]

I am so disconnected from society that I didn't even know about that meme! Thank you so much for informing me, Steve!

[@stevo32drums]

At it's core, this channel is educational!

[@sk8ordie548]

​@@stevo32drumsThe main part of education the educational system misses.

[@pepeshiraz655]

so glad you started this KZbin channel. its refreshing to see you with that same sparkle in your eye as back in the day and to learn that you quit the band for very noble reasons. you've aged beautifully my friend! just a thought but it would be awesome to hear you drum to a version of the song with the drums stripped out so we can just heard what you're doing. I know it would be more work for your crew but I think it would add to that portion of the video. either way, its fascinating to see you kill it so hard playing to songs you haven't heard in over a decade. a true talent and shining soul. you often stole the show with your sense of humor and impeccable badassery on the drums. best wishes to you and your family! oh yeah, I think there's millions of people (including myself) who would cherish that drum head if it came into their possession.

[@siktheick]

My birthday is April 8th. When I was 15, you guys played a show in London (which turns out was the one recorded for "Go Chuck Yourself). I had the money, asked my mom for a ticket for my birthday, it was the only thing I wanted. She took us to Quebec to see my brother, instead. I've been so bitter about it all these years, but seeing your videos is at least a little part of what I missed all those years ago.

[@arturogonzalez-barrios8206]

I always wondered about the spitting before Hell Song! I'm so happy you're back sharing your humor and stories!

[@stevo32drums]

that's how you make in the record business haha thanks for watching

[@matelotpierrot8704]

Hell song is the perfect song to start the show! Probably my favorite song of you guys! In the next video can you talk about the song that you did for the movie Spider-Man, ''It's What We're All About''?

[@stevo32drums]

I will definitely get to that one

[@natewolfmanjohnson]

That and Noots are two of my favorite songs they did that ended up in a movie/for a movie!

[@iangoldsworthy8306]

Stevo, so pleased you're out there doing these vids. You seem like a really nice guy, modest and fun. So much admiration for you for making the band choice you did, keep up this channel, for Sum 41 and more importantly yourself. Thanks, from Ian in the UK.

[@Nerrodyth]

STOP IT! Stop with all the flashbacks to a time where I didn't know what worries were. I was 10 year old when this song came out and Sum41 was my favorite band ever. You got me into (punk) rock, you got me playing the guitar, you got me through high school. Sum41 will always be THE band of my youth. Thank you so much for that! (Don't stop it please, I love the videos ❤Keep up this amazing work.)

[@cr00kz]

This was THE song that got me to pick up a guitar and explore heavier music avenues. Forever grateful for all Sum 41 but this era/song specifically.

[@stevo32drums]

Nice! I am glad to hear that!

[@moralhazard1]

Fat Lip riff made me pick up a guitar! But Sum 41 kept getting heavier and was such an inspiration! The Chuck album made me a fan for life! ❤

[@BrianBadBass]

This will always be my favorite Sum 41 song. As a kid raised on classic rock, I was always looking for new music with guitar solos, and this song had everything I wanted! Thanks for the memories Stevo!

[@stevo32drums]

I remember when I first heard green day on a classic rock station .. it was probably the same week my hips started aching haha

[@BrianBadBass]

​@@stevo32drumsI think I heard "In Too Deep" on a classic rock station the other day...

This was the first Sum 41 song I've learned on the electric guitar, also one of the first songs in general, and I actually managed to convince my friends to play it for one school talent show. Good times! P.S. you should definitely throw the drum head away, but in a trash can near my house

Damn I’m impressed on how clean you played this song. You can tell the difference in your drumming, compared to your previous videos. The way you played it, you can just tell it can only come from years of touring and playing this song I’m just gonna say it “ over here with the drum head. I’m interested on that drum head”

Hey Stevo, I'm so happy to see you on KZbin. Sum 41 was the first band that I truly loved, you guys are the reason I started my musical journey. I'll always appreciate that. The antics in music videos like this helped me break out of shyness and start to be a jokester

[@MichaelTheCrow]

I remember when you guys hosted an episode of Rage in Australia back in 2004, they played a lot of sick songs and surprisingly a lot of metal, thanks to that episode I'll always thank Sum 41 for being my gateway band into heavy metal, had no internet back then and we recorded the entire episode on VHS, my older brother and I watched the shit out of it, was a joy being able to see all your music videos at the time. The Hell Song is easily one of my favourites and this channel totally rules. Keep up the amazing videos you beautiful legend!

You leaving Sum, was like Tom leaving Blink; The name and everything remained - but the soul, humor and the banter of the band disappeared. Watching these videos reminds me of how much personality, fun and relatability the band actually lost when you left. It was never the same....

The opening riff on this song still gives me a shiver up my spine to this day. I gotta say, it blows my mind how you can just jump back into these songs having not played them for ten years or even more in some cases, and you still fuckign rip it!

I’ve been a huge fan of you guys since I was around his age.. so it’s really cool for me to watch this and it makes me sooo happy you played this song, takes me back 20 years it’s so awesome \m/ And, so, I’m trying to pass on my abilities as a drummer, and it makes it really cool that I happen to work in a Music School.. I have currently 8 kids that I’m teaching at the moment, they’re all on vacation (which most of us are at this time).. so, (continued in the next..)

[@ovemrch907]

..So I’m currently away.. but I’ll soon be back to teach again.. can’t wait..\m/ So, these kids are like from 8 to 14 years old.. and I’m trying to pass on my knowledge in music.. at the moment I’m teaching primarily punk/hard rock/pop punk.. etc Not to mention paradiddles and other stuff like that I myself, play in alot of different bands where I live.. grew up playing your songs as well as other awesome bands like Blink 182, The Offspring, Bad Religion, Green Day.. you know the drill.. Music is my life so I’m more than stoked this video came out.. and I hope for alot more to come.. so I can teach more Sum 41 songs to the kids! I was tryin to add something else but I kinda got lost in the track.. but anyway.. Love your videos, Love you Stevo32, you’re awesome! \m/ E Ca Hi!
