Excited to see this one! I love your drum tech povs so you earned a subscriber!

[@thedrownedman_]

Got my early like, will be on the line to watch it premiere! :)

[@DownforceRecordings]

great video as always! Would be interesting to me if you could put up the local time on the screen continuously, so we can see how long each step actually takes. would be neat :)

[@5ShotProductions]

Do you know the reason why you‘re still unable to monetize? Can‘t really see the reason why not? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ericcarr1648]

Dude is one hell of a drummer!!

[@jawsh6027]

I can't imagine the amount of hard work just to put a great show, huge salute to you and to all the crews all over the world!

[@taurus4205]

As a former touring drummer and current sound guy I absolutely love your videos bro!!! Thanks for sharing your world with us

[@halstedhouse]

Glad to see im not the only one. audio is the natural path for touring drummers. ill do a drum tech tour hear and there but not like before

[@petegregory517]

From one that "wanted to be" thanx.

[@emanueleesposito4439]

As a professional drummer I really enjoy your point of view, especially the catering section lol. Anyway, I’m really thankful to my drum tech and appreciate the massive job you guys do for us every night and it’s really sad that sometimes no one notices the importance of what you do. Btw I see all your videos till the end! (Sorry for any mistake, I’m Italian :)) Cheers!

[@matthorndrums]

Give your tech a firm handshake from me next time you see them!

[@felipeborgias]

I'm a drum teacher here in Curitiba, I just love your videos, I use them as part of my classes, so future drummers can see all the work and love it takes to be a drummer, on and off stage. Thank you for your videos, they are awesome!

[@matthorndrums]

Thats awesome! I dont think a lot of kids know that working behind the scenes is a legitimate career path as well. I appreciate you sharing with your students!

[@kidsrambo1234]

brasiiiiiiil

[@joaocartaxo8135]

What a luxury for Luke, or any drummer for that matter... been doing both jobs at the same time for 30 years. This is the life. Much respect bro. Greets from Portugal

[@skusic]

As a drummer still in high school, these videos hype me up and inspire me so much. I love watching them to see how drummers set up their kits and how you take such good care of them. Keep up the good work, these are awesome.

[@foxxycarr]

47:10 in… beautiful ! A joy to watch and hear! Thanks for recording this Matt!

[@Homsin]

Hyped! Thank you so much for making these. The longer the better, and your editing is very enjoyable too. I wish more people working BTS on gigs took inspiration from your videos.

[@critie]

I covered for a famous band before playing guitar for a couple shows a while back. I always felt bad that i was not able to help setup coming from local shows so it was weird for me to sit in a green room running through songs. i get it, but it was strange to have someone who knew exactly the setup i needed with guitars to play an arena. It was something else to rely on the guitar techs but they knew what was up. it was amazing to help with strain playing a 2 hour show compared to setting it up...THEN playing the show and breaking it down. it was an experience to say the least. good job on drums my man.

[@WlknTlknStvnHwkn]

I know it’s the same job everyday, but these videos truly don’t get old. Appreciate you taking us on the road with you and showing us what you do! Really enjoying these!!!

[@La_sagne]

some in bloom during line check.. nice!

[@randyporter3491]

Just found your channel Matt and it's great. I had a magic & illusion show for years, and it was a lot of hard pre-show work. But this humbled me. People just don't realize the well oiled machine of technicians working behind the scenes on a show this size. You guys are true pros and make it all happen.

[@MeMyselfHyde]

I saw you guys in Tampa and you guys were so damn efficient. Also tried shouting at you, but it was super loud that night. Drums sounded insane. Thank you for posting these.

[@bigbadbabybear]

that "oh my god" moment with the rack tom just validates everything i do with drum tuning AHHAHA i love you for sharing what you do, man! Keep the videos coming :D

[@ati11]

I was like "I'll just look into this video a bit" and sat there and watched the whole thing. Being a drum tech or any instrument tech looks really fun and exciting job tbh. Thanks for showing us!

[@AnotherFreeMind]

This is my 3rd video..... Why does this happen?

[@GP-Music.]

Great tour brotha, catch you again soon! 6 shows later I'm spent lol.

[@jordoxwardo]

Legit best channel on KZbin going right now

[@seekersofrhythm]

There was a lot of clenching going on during the install with forklift. Nicely executed. stay safe J.

[@matthorndrums]

I age a few years every time I watch it go up and down lol

[@atomicsun72]

Hi Matt. Thank you for another cool video. I watched all the way through. I was a local stage hand for 14 years and am also a hug e fan of Luke Holland so your videos have twice the appeal to me. Its like having a flashback of being at work and it's a positive flashback. Seeing Luke's set up in these videos feels like a privelige so it must feel like an honour to be the person that gets to take care of them daily. During load in, I was shocked to see you and the local crew guy go straight for the handles when lowering the smaller case that was riding on the drum case. I was taught - never trust handles on cases. Thanks again for sharing your videos. Be safe and have a great tour. Cheers

[@elkcloner]

I have said it before, thank you for making these! The editing and the flow of the videos are really impressive, stoked everytime a new one is released.

[@K1ngK0ng15]

An hour video?! Let’s fucking go! Love your videos man! Just how organized & the attention to detail in your craftsmanship. Amazing… simply amazing! Found your channel about 2 months ago. Always look forward to your content. And seeing other good techs like pip (beartooth) doing the damn thing. I’m sure you get comments like this all the time but thank you for taking the time to share what goes on behind the scenes & your hard work. I have a deep appreciation for touring techs. Keep the good content coming. 💯

[@matthorndrums]

I appreciate the kind words man, and thank you for watching! Pip is our stage right guitar tech on this tour actually!

[@lvmdrummer92]

Man, this video came up in my recommended, and I binged every one of the tech vlogs. I love this! Definitely subscribed

[@mr666pepe666]

That is excellent man! Keep on uploading those vids, I've watched every second of them all so far. Cheers from Poland

[@KevinRMullins]

I watch all your videos from start to finish. I love the drums and have been fascinated by them since I was 4 years old. Thank you for putting these videos together. 🥁

[@stevenwolfie]

I watch your videos all the way through from beginning to end. It makes me change the way I play drums and set up. Keep posting more videos on tour! They are great

[@tannerabney6032]

Brotha! Being a touring drummer/ tech myself, I’m truly stoked every time I see you post a new video. They always go by way too quick (even though they’re long videos). Thanks for taking the time to make these man

[@swindlehappy9309]

Yo good shit Matt!!!!! Loving the series so far

[@swindlehappy9309]

god I love forklifts

[@stevericardo_drummer]

Great videos mate!!!!! Hope to see you in Vancouver BC one day.

[@SergiuCrisan]

Thanks for the video man ! really cool, and you know what, I watch this before getting to sleep and they re really calming in a way. Keep them coming

[@ML-kx9gz]

doggz this guy is so clean with it that he pre-opens the water bottles to make it just a tiny hairline easier to open, this guy is the regime.

[@whatcanibreakdrums]

Being a drummer but nothing even close to this level, it is really cool to see how these huge shows are orchestrated! Much love! 💚

[@chriscornell8766]

I'm not even a drummer and i enjoy watching your videos... The way you edit them together, i dig it... Keep it up...

I was working the San Diego gig and you killed it during line check! It was a privilege to help out. I was so focused on working I didn't realize you were here! Keep up the good work bro!

[@sebcovers8141]

your videos just from a musician standpoint are great videos to watch. they’re so interesting to anyone who loves music and live venues

[@DrummerMike2708]

Keep killing it! The show doesn’t happen without you and a badass crew. Much respect for doing what you do!🤘

[@henniewagner]

Made it to the end. As a sound/lighting tech who plays drums as a hobby, I love your videos man, can't wait to see you on the road one day!

[@spy44yogi]

I totally held my breath the whole time the forklift was raising those drums lmao. Great video!

[@SimonLoveridge]

These videos are so relaxing and exciting at the same time, thank you for making them!

Awesome stuff as always, Matt. Watching these vids are so helpful for any drummer getting into touring and just overall maintaining your kit properly to get the most out of it. Keep up the great work brother 🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@GarretM77]

Love all the videos so far, great behind the scenes look at being a drum tech on the road. If I had my time over again, it's something I would definitely have pursued (even for only a few years). Looking forward to the next video. Cheers.

[@Lifelover00123]

Thank you for taking us with you 😊

[@andyfinchdrums]

Love watching these vids. Great attention to detail 🤘🏻Keep them coming!

[@davemessina7747]

That was awesome! Thank you for filming and sharing this with us! A lot of moving pieces. Nice job! Subscribed!

[@jeffreystaley5266]

Hey Matt, it is cool to watch a pro do something I have done hundreds of times. Not a big fan of the pitch bend. I like to tune the bottom head a bit higher than batter so that won't happen. But, it all seems to work well and you clearly know how to tune quickly and effectively for your drummers. Your videos are fun to watch.

[@MrSebcook]

hope you can make one here in copenhaen, denmark ! nice videos, fun to watch !

[@SoundAloneband]

Never had a riser fall apart on me but I did have our huge heavy banner come down on me during the first 5 mins of a set. And it sucked.

[@oshlick]

I’m a backline tech in Dallas, on my lazy Susan I put a cushioned place mat on it like you use for small children at the dinner table

[@matthorndrums]

Yoooo fantastic idea!!!! Thank you!

Watching that forklift lift your riser onto the stage had me holding my breath, lol… Watching for the slightest teeter and sigh of relief when it was safely on the stage 😅 Got all the way to the end, love seeing the process from start to finish! Please keep these vids coming!

[@Drumliife]

Man that spindle is a great idea for changing heads. I’ll have to get one.

[@matthorndrums]

Can't believe it took me so long to get one. Game changer!

[@andreasvaldnaofficial9583]

The part where the riser is lifted up by the forklift sheesh that takes some precision. Great video as always my guy!

[@TheWhippinpost]

It's the small details. And there are a lot of them. And they need to be conducted in the right order. It makes for a looong to-do list!

[@_mnejing]

It's fun to see that you're using Luke's retail package. Always nice to know that they're ACTUALLY PLAYING the product their name is on.

I watched every minute of this enjoyable video. Amazing stuff.

[@arnoudbongaards1163]

Allthough the scale is somewhat bigger (as a Dutch drummer in a alternative band i played big stages and festivals but this is all a serious level above that) all the rest Matt does really hits home.... did all this stuff myself so often i dreamt about it! all those stuff in flightcases and bags..the vibes backstage....I love setting the drums up, changing heads, tuning, doing maintanance...and then the drumming itself ofcourse! Getting strangely nervous again when seeing the moments just before go show! You are a true professional...Great work and vids man!

[@DJCharlieHorse]

Right in my city. I wanted to go so bad, but wasnt in the cards for me this time I guess. unfortunately, concerts are REALLY expensive in Nashville :/

[@Trikalero]

Same technique and same cleaner bro! Excellent!

[@matiaslescano057]

Matt sos Un Fenómeno 10 puntos!! Pepo De La Vega! Ciancio Pibe!

[@MisterNorthernCanuck]

Hell of a kit for one hell of a drummer. Great work!

[@KirkyDrums]

DW toms should always be tuned to their note for true resonance unless you are tuning them way high for jazz.. "For people who don't know DW have an imprint of the shells key on the inside of the drum before hardware is added" When done correctly they sing and its shows me every time I think they are in tune to actually being "In tune"

[@williemammoth11]

I definitely held my breath

[@miroslavcrveni3826]

Proper way getting shit done! If I ever had a chance to drum tech for some bigger touring bands I'm pretty sure will do the same as you. Great job!
