Internet Musicians vs Real Life Musicians (ft. Gregg Bissonette)

[@tiyman1221]

I've missed you, Pinny Skenis

[@jp_jimenezz]

I remember I saw Everything Yes in Boston right after I auditioned for Berklee. I traveled all the way from Bolivia to audition, and lucky me, the dates matched with the concert. That day was the best day of my life. Everything yes became my favorite jazz band, and Zack became my favorite drummer. Listening to them on spotify is nothing compared to watching them live. They are just out of this world, and they have inspired me to be a better musician. ❤️

[@ZackGrooves]

Man you just made my day with these kind words 🙏thank you !

[@RWCentral]

next time you're at a gig play a blastbeat in the middle of it

[@TheIdiot-dl9jr]

Pls I would die for a recording of this 😂

[@derrickbadenhorst7329]

Zack, my students are crazy about you. A lot of them introduced me to your channel in 2021, so I've also been subscribed to your channel since then. And honestly, I truly respect your passion, your unique talent and sense of humour. Since Rene Barthen did a clinic here in Port Elizabeth South Africa 🇿🇦 ( huge successful Drum clinic), I was approached by Dixon Drums SA and got my endorsement deal through them. But as you know, A LOT of work went into it. I can't wait to meet you in person hopefully soon. So that you can meet us South African drummers here in Port Elizabeth (Coastal city) with a lot of passionate drummers, hungry to learn and to experience your talent live.

[@brettclurdrums]

I’m pretty sure he’s coming in October, Derrick 👌🏻 just not sure if PE. It would make sense though as the PE Dixon clinic had the biggest turn out apparently

[@derrickbadenhorst7329]

​@brettclurdrums I'm sure he will come to Port Elizabeth, because the support is BETTER here than in the larger cities. But that's because I am here 😂. All seriousness, I make sure that my students attend the drum clinics gets arranged. When we had Virgil Donati in Port Elizabeth, we also had the most supporting that clinic in South Africa. And I know Zack will have a great time at this little coastal town. 😊

[@brettclurdrums]

@@derrickbadenhorst7329 haha EPIC! I'll be sure to drive through from East London when he does come.

[@doofs]

bro completely unrelated, went to my local music store and found a pair of "zackgrooves" signature drumsticks, congratz on making it man

[@greggdrums]

Zack!!! Love you brother .. Hope to see you soon!! I’m back in Liverpool at the UK Drumfest where you were last year .. I’m double drumming w your Manchester pal Marvin He just bought a Dixon Cornerstone kit See you soon

[@AaronLevyDrums]

"Close your eyes for a second? You see? NOTHING!" Damn lol that was pretty damn funny

[@ThePercussion10]

Hey, Zach I just wanted to give a shoutout from N Georgia! I see you are from N Carolina. Anyway I am a 47-year-old drummer and have mostly played percussion since I was 18. I've been in and out of music and my consistency has been a bit rocky due to addiction that about took my life several times over the years. I have had several drumsets and had lost them all because of bad life choices and I've now overcome addiction from both heroin and fentanyl and picked up drumming again as well as hiking to keep my head occupied. Drumming has always been a passion of mine. I just wanted to say thank you because although you have no clue who I am; you, my friend have inspired me to get back to chopping! I'm also highly into jazz/ fusion style drumming but I practice a good bit of all types. I think your story is so awesome and how far you came in such a short time with all of your endorsements is quite amazing! Well anyway I hope I get to jam out with you someday brother! Keep on swingin’.. Donn

[@GabrielMainardi-fl9hl]

Zack, I have been drumming for about 6 years now. I have a band and do small gigs around town. You’re videos always bring me joy and inspire me to become a better drummer myself. You’re comedy is always so funny! Keep on making the amazing videos you make!

[@Jack_Attack_2580]

I would say I was a very “causal” jazz enjoyer, and mostly just straight, drummer-lead, big band jazz (Buddy Rich, mostly) because I’m a drummer, and didn’t really appreciate other musicians/instruments, like I do now, and should’ve then, but… Zack. Mr. Grooves. Pinny Skenis. You are what has gotten me into jazz fusion. Everything Yes is my go-to instrumental music now, period. And I thank you for that and want to kiss you and your dad. Muah.

[@joshthompiano]

Awesome vid Bro! Congrats on crossing 400k happy subscribers including myself for years now! Groove on Zack

[@Tristanrgreene11]

Greg’s the man. The drum ambassador for all us drummers.

[@laneziegler81]

[@mjestiaz._]

[@robinthebobin6537]

Saw you guys in Birkenhead on the UK run, was some of the best fusion music I've heard live, this band is gonna go places! Just work on your Bri'ish accent for next time though, that was criminal😂

[@joshuaenyart5570]

That story about David Garibaldi was fantastic!

[@brianchristiansen3828]

Dude, one of your best videos yet.

[@Elborrro]

From America, respect to you and your squad. You represented yourselves and your country second to none.

[@kolo5086]

As a musician that wants to play a tour once, this is so helpful.

[@ignacioinder]

So great to see ya thrive and men…..you got bisonette…legend. Cheers from raleigh bro

[@TheBasiks]

Yo Zack, any chance Everything Yes is gonna come out with cds and or vinyls? Would love to get one for the albums.

[@jojoalexander6978]

Greg came to my city Wellington, New Zealand last year and gave a workshop. The guy is an amazing speaker and educator, not to mention drummer... great story teller and comes up with some crazy analogies

[@RADZADproductions]

Man I love listening to Greg, he reminds me of one of my amazing teachers and my dad. Seems like such an amazing guy

[@CyrixD2]

Really interesting vid, appreciated the contrast with Bissonette. Hope to catch you next time you're in Toronto.

[@SP35640SNAKE]

Wow. Musician and band/orchestra teacher here and Greggs's advice is exactly why I got a music ed degree and still perform

[@creeps717]

[@sholynphotoworks]

Greg high as a kite 😂

[@RicG.]

Gregg is the best!!

[@Bozha_Kapetanovic91]

@14:07 when people were less in "capitalism mode", great story.

[@stella717]

Does anyone know how Greg did both jazz drums and music education at the same time in college? Cause I heard that music education majors are focused on classical music and not jazz, so it's usually classical percussion and not much drumset in a music education route from my knowledge? Someone tell me if im wrong. I want to major in jazz drums but with a music education degree, I'm curious on how Greg did it, or if he did classical percussion.

[@akímuno]

Whoever sleeps on Zack, needs to grow up… 💋 *muah*

[@highstickx]

2:56 ya dig?💀💔😂

[@dakid2459]

[@sosked78]

If you're home for a while can you collaborate with Aaron Paulsen plzzzz

[@gojoSatorui-h7m]

please react to an tv show called kids on the slope

[@SkullyEditz]

Zack da goat

[@JesseMiller-x4s]

Zack... Aspire to create something new. Something original. You're not going to break through without something unique. You and your brother are great musicians but that doesn't mean anything without some kind of different sound. Experiment, get weird, get crazy. Become yourselves. Innovate.

[@josiahaguero3877]

Yo saw u at namm also first

[@keenban]

Gregg Bissonette is a real yapper. Good stories, and i enjoyed listening. But man, he rambles sometimes..

[@soma4354]

I'm sorry to be rude but man troll faces have been out of date for so long, just one of the very apparent instances showing that your humor is stuck in the past a bit. Kinda makes me sad cos that just means you're actually doing shit with your life and I'm stuck on the internet oh well
