Drummer REACTS to Chad Smith at Drumeo

[@TheSchaef47]

I love the outro where he plays the 2 over the 3. What an insane flex.

[@thomasmowslawns8138]

Chad just makes a masterpiece of the high-hat that compliments this song so subtlety

[@ht_x8499]

I watched many reaction videos to Chad at Drumeo, I appreciate your playing because it showed what a big task it is. And you explained the time signature well (for a non musician like me)

[@johnnywlittle]

Very underrated reaction. I was blown away from 1st sitting, had chills, was mesmerized and laughing at the same time as I’m witnessing this freak’n awesome performance of Chad’s on the fly creation [no prior knowledge of song and drumless track 28secs in kills it] - Then the reviewer has a stab at it himself [as if] and fails miserably. To his credit, he acknowledged and stopped that madness. Yeah so I haven’t read comments but sounds like he’s getting the raft of sh*t he likely deserves. - While this guy seems like a nice enough fella, he is flat as glass and shouldn’t be doing reaction videos. The Red Sea would part and he’d probably shrug and go ‘not bad’….😂

[@RSHugeMaul]

💯

[@AlessandroSpenga]

Flat like your view count

[@cliftonlloyd8395]

No....when you started playing along it was something special....do more of that

[@AlessandroSpenga]

🤣 ok! thanks for the feedback!

[@fetz6904]

Agreed, play more

[@ThePhillyfan30]

No 😂

[@jebronlames9000]

​@@AlessandroSpenga Here's some feed back pause the video play the song no drums and try yourself maybe at the end even if you've heard it it'll be cool content

[@johnjmacc6977]

Looked up the definition (G.O.A.T.)in the dictionary and it had Chad's picture beside it lol

[@bboyshotty]

Neil Peart muahah

[@ectxh]

this was prob the best reaction to this video, pure reaction no faking and when you started playing that was top tier honestly. that should be your thing and you should do it more 100%

[@AlessandroSpenga]

Thank you I will!

[@eatsmylifeYT]

What's so top tier about his playing when his drums don't even sound right?

[@billpimentel-vm6cu]

Chad’s such a bad ass, one of my favorite drummers , Carrey #1 to me

[@nadinechehine3297]

My favorite drummer amazing ❤❤

[@Smashy2009]

I am not a drummer, but by what i see the stick broke exactly at the position of the rim of the snare, i assume he hit the rim before so he weakened it.

[@AlessandroSpenga]

Yes. Chad always plays rimshots, which is when you hit the center of the drum with the tip of your stick and the rim at the same time. It produces a distinctive sound and tends to chew the stick at around the rim impact area.

[@mvv4330]

No words!!!

[@AlessandroSpenga]

What do you mean?

[@King-BrawlStars-yv5we]

Hey you do very nice and funny videos. Can You react to Alain Ackermann, Hes a Swiss drummer and he is a f Beast. I would be happy! Keep Going!

[@AlessandroSpenga]

Hey thanks! Will have a look

[@advancedwindowandguttercle685]

Amazing. I've never heard this track before. He's worked out the timing then probably thought Breaking The Girl 👍

[@ShovelChef]

I thought the same thing at first! 😄👍 #iykyk Tempo and time signature are basically the same, though if I recall correctly, the groove is a bit different. I'll have to listen to that again now.

[@advancedwindowandguttercle685]

@@ShovelChef they jam all the time in concerts. He's obviously a quick thinker to play that so quick. As amazing as it is, I bet its not hugely difficult for him to do this

[@valimardorrin6869]

are you more of a jazz drummer? When you jumped in it sounded good but like heavy jazz tune and cymbols seemed more jazz?

[@AlessandroSpenga]

Im definitely a rock drummer man. Just didn’t play too hard on that bit

[@dbasstij512]

Check out Domino Santangelo doing Slipknot. For a non-drummer it's really cool watching her work through the song...

[@williamprbwn]

I hope you can react and give your technical opinions to the video of Sleep Token II playing The Summoning on Drumeo, it was spectacular.

[@AlessandroSpenga]

I will

[@fiasfunartworld521]

Nice react vid dude. Just found channel btw.

[@Ren-ug2el]

I should give it a go myself,,,, nooo please 🙏

[@AlessandroSpenga]

Why not?

[@nzrockboi]

Love Chad and the Chilis and after watching this I listened to the original, once. The drumming is rubbish

[@eatsmylifeYT]

First, you're pretty arrogant to think you could keep up with Chad Smith. Second, your drums sound really bad.

[@AlessandroSpenga]

Arrogant? Keep up with Chad Smith??? What’s wrong with you man 🤣

[@_m3kh170]

“First, you’re pretty arrogant to think you could keep up with Chad Smith”🤓🤓

[@FernandoHDutra]

good video, not good react though.

[@AlessandroSpenga]

[@FernandoHDutra]

@@AlessandroSpenga Good video, nice pic, frame rate, definition and all. But it seems like you didnt care for the original video that you were reacting to. Anyway, good job.
