Gavin Harrison's King Crimson 2018 World Tour Drum Kit

[@ickysticky3672]

Gavin Harrison is the Gordon Ramsay of drums, from the hand gestures to how he talks about his craft. Gets me every time

[@Membraphonics]

Nick Colantonio it's unsettling how accurate that is. I don't think I'll ever unsee it now.

[@Canu16]

Sorry… this has nothing to do with coocking, 'cause cooking is not an art… also if many recent shitty tv shows try to make you think that it is. Food is an important element for life… stop playing with hit!!! XD

[@Scarecrow6459]

Nick Colantonio Holy crap. I literally made that revelation while watching this video and then read your comment. Mind. Blown.

[@jdb3611]

Nick Colantonio I thought the same thing dude!

[@deaterk]

Agreed on the physical similarities! (fortunately) Gavin is a consummate professional, and is ALWAYS a gentleman (unlike that reality tv, ass-clown chef)

[@diegoarriazaahumada9701]

Best drummer on this side of the galaxy.

[@chrisbyars4422]

‘We play complicated music’. That is an understatement!

[@CarnorJast1138]

The man is incredible, and has become one of my all-time favorites. But where he really shines is the sound of his set. Truly one of the cleanest, best sounding sets on the planet!

[@vertigus28]

I like how he admits to not knowing some things. Nice humility allows for enquiring minds. Good stuff.

[@arandommaggot4963]

"Octobans", "Rocket Toms", "Hamster Tubes", now freekin' "Log Drums". I love it man 😂

[@sammyloehnis3373]

And DW calls them Ratatoms as well

[@BrunodeSouzaLino]

They all have different names because "Octoban" is a trademark from Hoshino Gakki, which is the company that owns Tama and Ibanez. Gavin's "log drums" are different because they're 8" diameter instead of 6" and have a reso head instead of being open on the bottom.

[@drummeralbertrivera9577]

I’d call them, “WAHctabons”.

[@johnfearon6115]

Sonor sq2 tribal blue kit looks stunning

[@tiberiusclaudiusnerogermanicis]

One of the greatest drummers to share our atmosphere. And seems like such a down to earth person. His technique is of another dimension... anybody got more space puns? Although I sincerely mean all of mine lol

[@pablobarroso6581]

Educated, nice, elegant, never speaks crap. Should be named SIR Gavin Harrison sooner than later. Are you listening, Elizabeth !!????

[@jolemite2639]

Absolute genius of a drummer. He gifts us with his skill & gives freely of his knowledge & I treasure every bit of it. What a bad ass... wish I could afford a kit as beautiful as that SQ2. It'd be a blast to play for sure.

[@billmay7364]

Love Gavin . Nothing he can't do . Technically off the charts . Great Feel and Vibe as well . One of the Greats.

[@PedroDVC]

Master drummer! One of my favorites!

[@BahasaDrum]

Omg his attention to details ❤️

[@andym28]

Bahasa Drum The English phrase is attention to detail, however nothing wrong with details.

[@kaschamacka8681]

i love his alltime new ideas for the Sonor-Drumset, always creative..12 protean Snare, one of the most lovin n variable snares i play..still one of my Drum-Heros by now..Keep pumpng and wish good Touring. cheers from zurich/ Suisse.!

[@neonom1024]

that velcro thing on the floor toms is genius.

[@DeaganZ3488]

Thats what I thought. I'm doing it to my kit tonight.

[@PureSwedishViking]

Does he even age?

[@joymusic694]

Gavin, Exemplo de humildade e musicalidade...👏👏👏👏👏🥁🥁🥁🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@702ringo1]

I love this drummer!❤️ I really enjoy listening to him play solos or performing with porcupine tree.🥁

[@RichardCole1002]

Very talented drummer !!! Enjoy watching him play !!!

[@earlbrackett6742]

I saw KC at DPAC Oct. 2017 and it was the most inspirational gig from a drumming standpoint that Ive seen since I saw Peter Erskine about 20 years ago...Gavin is my top drummer for 2018 ! I'm dying to dissect his style and incorporate it...

[@DiTorrealba]

Groove Wedge is the crosstick gadget.

[@MRSHORTFUSE100]

I have only seem Mr Harrison live once with Porcupine Tree in 2005 and it was amazing!!! I have been waiting for KC to come to my city but have not played Phoenix Az since 2003.Maybe some day before Mr Fripp calls it a day they will come here again.

[@daleonov]

1:35 "A 20 inch floor tom", or as other drummers might call it "a kick pedal" ...also, a small snare and another even smaller one. That's quite an unusual setup!

[@lilymuu]

Absolutely brilliant kit! Can't wait to hopefully see you on tour.

[@antoninoscannapieco5508]

Finally a top drummer who doesn't use DW stuff!!

[@randainone]

Never seen the use of velcro connecting the two floor toms before. Interesting.

[@dibber43]

Love Gavin!!! A down-to-earth genius who I would be thrilled to meet one day. Great drummer and cool cat!😎👍

[@earlbrackett6742]

Gavin has the coolest set-up in drumming history...I'd drop dead if a drum manufacturer would hook me up with custom drums...

[@davidhenderson9015]

great tip with the velcro

[@colin6768]

God I love the tribal finishes - red tribal looks awesome too :)

[@MentzArtPixLab]

I love his setup!

[@stuartcarswell2815]

Best kit walk through ive seen 👌

[@diegodogliotti2031]

Excelente !! un crack

[@RonWellman1]

I can't believe you didn’t have him hit those drums or cymbals. Would have been nice to hear them.

[@ENBeatitTV]

That was up to Gavin. We're glad you liked it anyway. Thanks for watching! :-)

[@Monsterdrumma]

Russ Miller’s snare wedge or groove wedge I believe!

[@jasonhentges1044]

What Hi-Hats Gavin!! You skipped right over those bad boys!! Looks like K-Light Brilliant??

[@stevelamonica2297]

Gavin is just amazing. I can't help to wonder how much better he'd sound with Paiste cymbals.

[@RogierRJDonker]

Different sure! Better, mwah... taste

[@さわちん-z2v]

sophisticated setting

[@toddstrong1353]

It's called a "Groove Wedge" made by Yamaha.

[@laiftaim]

Always, I wanna know his 5 custom bells size & drum set sizes. 8/10/12/14S/22B/15F/18F, right? really? 15 & 18 floor tom, really? oh... anyway, i like his Gibraltar hardware. I love Gibraltar always. So, Let me know his custom bells size and floor toms.

[@andrewgossett7341]

Will Pat's drum set be shown on the channel as referenced in this video?

[@FanaticDrummer]

You can also put a small sand bag to ground the floor tom legs.

[@DrummerJulian]

the coolest drum set

[@Rastafan8]

The wood rim on the Snare calls groove wedge!

[@medicallyunexplainedsymptoms]

That bloke used to play drums in the band I was in. When I say 'that bloke', I mean Mr Holmes, who appears in the background at 0:47.

[@davidgibson2776]

Use the 20" k Sweet Crash! Its incredible.

[@mnkrck]

Was hoping to see Pat Mastelottos setup as well :/ Thank you anyways :)

[@ENBeatitTV]

soon!

[@mnkrck]

Awesome!

[@kaschamacka8681]

I d like to know also, please

[@wuckle]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHLGant6iseKpM0

[@jimatyeo]

Anybody catch what size hi hats he uses? I kept waiting through the whole video too hear and they skipped over them.

[@mdloser1]

Jim Atyeo I think they're 15"

[@jimatyeo]

Thank you.

[@mdloser1]

Jim Atyeo you're more than welcome Jim.

[@SXI96]

Let's hear it!

[@vinceroe6084]

Can anyone tell me if there’s new material/album coming out from them I been waiting for King Crimson’s new stuff for awhile...I heard this from a guy like a year or so ago at a record place where I went and sold some CD’s one day he said that they’re supposed to be having a new album coming out this year and this all came up over a shirt he had hanging up on the wall behind him lol I said “that’s a really nice shirt” he’s like “thanks I been listening to King Crimson for years and years they’re one of my favorite groups they should be coming out with a new album in 2018”

[@BeatlesBowieKrimson]

Gavin, I've seen you twice with Crimson. You, obviously, control the band.

[@dylanturner3216]

Crimson Kng control is a strong word. He is responsible for writing all parts and rehearsing the drummers in advance of full band rehearsals. The concept, I’m told I “three drummers with one voice”. It’s powerful and amazing. Bruford did the same in the double trio.

[@tweevers2]

he doesn't use the hihat Cobra clutch anymore?

[@matthewpaluch777]

😎👍🇬🇧🥁GAVIN!

[@RaTM19]

Hi hat?

[@andrewgossett7341]

Looks like 14" K Custom Session Hats (unless they're custom, just looked at a picture of them...)

[@RaTM19]

Thanks Andrew!

[@DiTorrealba]

What is that foot pump?, what's the name of it?, does anybody knows?

[@richyrichmountain]

Why does this remind me of spinal tap

[@Jcurtisjr1506]

Shoot Films haha was just about to comment that he really sounds like Nigel from spinal tap! 😂😂

[@BradWhitford-o9n]

Does he purposely not mention the hi hats in his walk throughs??? Lol I feel like every one he skips it. Are these 13” Ks? Or 14s?

[@Tokk123]

Gavin 💓

[@rushbum]

Speed Cobra pedals??? Thought he played Axis??

[@_alex_merrick_]

He switched soon after Porcupine Tree disbanded. I think it was around 2012. He was one of the reasons I bought an Axis A double pedal.

[@5drum5]

He totally skipped over his Hi-Hats!! What are they? K Brilliant something?

[@jean-philippebergeron5348]

Better late then never!! IIRC, those are 14'' K Custom Session Hi-Hats and they sound amazing.

[@khd17]

WOW!! What else can you say??

[@kushner2024]

i miss porcupine tree..

[@bobwoodbury]

What kind of cymbal toppers are those?

[@paulbolin7513]

So many people are cutting rings out of a head and putting it inside the bottom head of floor Toms. Couldn’t you just put a Remo Powerstroke 4 on the bottom of your floor Tom. It’s a two ply head with the ring built in.

[@ofdrumsandchords]

Different methods, different effects. I put a thin head on bottom of the floor tom, but let a piece of cloth (imitation felt), size of a CD or less on the bottom head. Just sitting, no sticking. It acts like a noise-gate, lets the plain sound get out with harmonics, and cut the resonance. You don't have this sound with a thick head.

[@seybsnilksz]

On the Powerstroke the ring is attached to the head, affecting the sound at all times. With a loose ring, it will fly up everytime the drum is hit, and then shorten the sustain a bit when it lands on the bottom head again.

[@derek5168]

Every drummer who played with King crimson had to follow a standard of excellence and Michael Giles set a high standard

[@jayjay1drum1skate]

do you think he feels silly or badass when he points out his crash of doom?

[@simonl1785]

Man is a genius

[@karlhungus8841]

Helps when you’re awesome

[@mjm5081]

❤

[@ofdrumsandchords]

He put his fingers on his Zildjian ? How shocking. What heads on the three toms, I didn't catch it, someone did ?

[@boitorythmes34]

vintage emperor ;)

[@ofdrumsandchords]

Merci grandement.

[@markkelly1123]

Call them harribans 🥁

[@_alex_merrick_]

Would the guys in the back mind keeping it down?

[@TwoandaHater]

What is his kick size?

[@andrewgossett7341]

Unless he has changed it in the past five years, it’s 22” by 15” (according to another video).

[@larrytate1657]

Yeah it used to be 22x17 a while back but I think he uses 22x15 as of recent. Go with a 22x16 and you’ll have the perfect happy medium of Gavin’s kick sound.

[@metallicarocks911]

Gavin Harrison = Younger Peter Falk? :D

[@dan-andreinafureanu6046]

Wow, exactly! Never thought of this, but the similarity is definitely there.

[@metallicarocks911]

@@dan-andreinafureanu6046 There is a noticeable similarity :)

[@shovit97]

eita ki hochhe mama? king crimson!!!!!!!!!!

[@j.d.7208]

Love some Gavin but I can't stomach a band with more than one drummer

[@arthurazoubel5344]

and that, kids, is what we called EXPERIENCE. Not everybody really has

[@runnningonempty]

C'MON!!!!!....TOM SIZES?BASS DRUM SIZE?

[@rhythmista7707]

Eeeekk ! Gibraltar hardware and Tama pedals ? Hmm, I don't think Sonor is too happy about that.. 😉

[@artlife4719]

Nice)

[@iloveNgany]

Cant hardly see the drums past all the chunky hardware. Awesome rig nonethess

[@NEALBABBITT]

I think I see the Mr Zogs stick wax there.

[@RF-pt9jx]

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL IN ALL ASPECTS.

[@scottloveday8598]

He favors Gene Krupa, maybe it's just a look great drummers have like Louie Bellson but he does resemble Gene Krupa.

[@hugorezende199]

Gavin dont know the Bane of the tons besause pearl use "Canon toms" , tama uses "octobans" and another Company maybe using another name.

[@jonad5902]

But gavin´s "little drums" have two drumheads... new type of tons? :p

[@hugorezende199]

Jona D good observation Bro. Usually theres no reso head. Maybe for the Air flow "pedal" stuff

[@jonad5902]

before the pedal, gavin uses the "air hose" in david letterman show, he blows the aire of the floor tom, also he plays jaco's the chiken!

[@hugorezende199]

Yeah! Gavin is always pushing boundaries on drummning. Lately i vê been into Larnell Lewis and Jay postones. Two another drum masters (Gavin is still a favorite)

[@jonad5902]

lewis is amazing!!!! now i need to listen Jay Postoes!!! Its my favorite too! when i was younger, i only plays very basics drum music covers with my friends and i was not having so much fun with the drums, even think in leave the music... until i listen fear of a blank planet... now i have a very bad tatto in my right forearm of thats beautifull fill, thanks for the ino! have a great weekend!

[@armensepetjian1274]

again he forgets to mention what the hihats are.... :) like in all videos on youtube.

[@francescotoni26]

Call them octobans

[@dagostinoification]

With the great group >>>a great drummer >>>Gavin Harrison ! (friendships ! Gavin ! from FRENCHY SOLO DRUMS >>facebook.com/SOELLBASS/videos/2106207133019453/

[@fernandrums]

It's interesting to see that drummers love SONOR Drums 🥁 but usually play with other brand of Drum Pedals.. 😂😂 Are they os bad? 🤔 🤔 🤔

[@ENBeatitTV]

Try this one (starts around the 10:00 mark) kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXScf3Zof86GY80&lc=UgwLVGPu7FJochUUZmF4AaABAg

[@matthewpaluch777]

Bye bye PT, hello Pineapple Thief!

[@kelpbeds]

Could they have stopped fuddling about during this?! Jesus!

[@JayB-lz6yd]

he has to stop with "sonah". it's ridiculous. it's "son or". it's freakin simple.

[@warrenoids]

He’s British, man.

[@jakewoods609]

Just the way we say it it’s not ridiculous-also if u wanna be correct it’s so-nor not Son-or
