Meinl Drum Festival - Chris Coleman - Solo in 7 / 5 / 3

[@davidchoi33]

Chris is an extremely rare individual who possesses technical skill, musical application, excellent crowd work, and much more. It’s a privilege to watch something like this. Thank you Chris and Meinl.

[@andyham6094]

The drum community and music world in general needs more people like Chris Coleman. His crowd interaction and involving everyone even for a drum solo and clinics is absolutely inspiring.

[@freshlikeme383]

Andy Ham its called LOVE

[@minisight2000]

I agree

[@hornshoes]

That’s something that Nate Smith does quite a bit too, the crowd interaction stuff

[@melvinlloydmaxwelljr5433]

One of my mentors told me ages ago that people hear music with more than just their ears. People hear music with all of their senses. This brother fully understands that. Great performance. Great spirit. Great mathematics...

[@stevetech5150]

just unbelievable what Chris can do on a kit. Unmatched. Thank you !!

[@RitchieColeman]

My nephew and fellow drummer, how proud we are of your ability to reach your audience, its a blast when he comes home and we have two sets of drums going ,,, not much sleep w/ that much fun! U Rich

[@ThePreachingOfHisWord]

Your nephew is a master at his craft!

[@andreimatheus9306]

God bless you all. Such a inspirational nephew do you have.

[@aridematos3555]

I was blown away when I first heard him over ten years ago playing on Israel Houghton live cd...

[@georgefothergill1081]

What a top chap humble talented and funny . The drumming community needs more like him . Class

[@c2_EXPERIENCE_]

Preciate The Luv :))

[@agungmunthe]

Can we take a moment to appreciate the mixing guy? That drum sounds really incredible!!!

[@Mordekev]

agung munthe wkwkwkwkwk! Incredibly happy by the quality of the sound! The clarity is crystal clear!

[@joonasheikkinen1441]

Umberleavebule.

[@비트마스터-b4r]

Totally agree with that point

[@Zildawolf]

agung munthe and able to keep the dudes mic stable sounding despite his constant mic adjusting

[@jarrahmusic]

First thing I noticed as soon as he started playing, so so nice

[@Theawakening777]

That last part almost brought me to tears. I will never give up on my dreams!

[@lyubomirgeorgiev1465]

I love Chris. He brings a smile to everyone's face and the drumming is out of this world.

[@Pillin123]

And here, is the best player in the universe, he always surprises me, I've been watching his videos all my life, even in cuba, where the internet is a trash and very expensive, I paid to download his videos many times, I already moved to another country and I hope to meet him one day, that will be my biggest dream, CHRIS: KEEP MAKING VIDEOS, JUST LIKE THAT.

[@westondifranco9313]

So cool to see a dude who loves to play this much.

[@emilianol203]

many look at his playing speed and technique, but the most awesome is the complexity of the subdivisions of the rhythm and how he manages them and improvises over them and resolve in an ongoing way still being musically pleasing

[@homard62]

That is a force of nature. And a lumberjack. What incredible hands.

[@christschinwon]

Just come from watching a bunch of JoJo Mayer vids & Chris still blows me away. Amazing ability, speed, confidence & personality. Love it!

[@kylecurran6747]

Even if Meinl didn’t win me over with their superior sound, the Meinl family would in a heartbeat. I love them so much, they all have such genuine passion to play, and such personality, not to mention they are some of the MOST talented drummers in the world right now. Chris Coleman, Alex Rudinger, Anika Nilles, Matt Garstka, Benny Greb, and Siros Vaziri, all part of the Meinl family and my all time favorite drummers. And there are even more. I’m only 18 right now, looking ahead to a career as a session musician and I sincerely hope to one day endorse Meinl as a professional musician and join the family!

[@gmorton916]

Best of luck 2 u in all of your future endeavors--I hope everything goes your way

[@dylangatenby9928]

It's great to see such a strong christian drummer! Chris Coleman God bless you for what you do.

[@joshuden]

Your favorite drummer's favorite drummer.

[@danielrice363]

I have to many drummers that inspire me?. But Drumming by ear is way 2 much fun from when I was four years old on card board box's & had a drum set when I turned at the age of 9 years old?. Chris Colman? Sounds very much like Tony Royster JR & Eric Moore?. I'm glad Drums are my Life?. I hope one day if I get better soon over my sister's passing 😢😞😟😨☹️?. It sucks being with out a older Sister?. I miss her heaps?. Love this kind of thing👍👍👍👍👍?.

[@danielrice363]

33 years old now?. just means I'm an old fart now?... I wonder how old Chris Colman is???.

[@mcmc1863]

Haha yeah!

[@KhayaMautla]

@@danielrice363 isn't it amazing how we set rules that limit us to just be and keep going? Something aren't worth retirement, they are the essence of who we are. When we give up on them because of social norms and the proverbial status quo, we essentially throw in the towel to life.

[@The_MTD]

He is a huge role model for me, from the person itself to his incredible drumming skills!

[@GeneralButtkick]

That is one of the most pleasing snare tones I have heard in awhile.

[@SaintMont]

How I love this man !!! He is one of the best human being !!! What a great moment had the people who were to the festival !!! Thanks Meinl's family to grow every year and make awesome products for us !!!

[@benevolentsun]

I was there, I‘m a former group 2 member, and this was such a spiritually cleansing experience. Had a quick chat with Chris at the signing afterwards and he is one of the nicest human beings I ever had the pleasure of having a conversation with!

[@c2_EXPERIENCE_]

Thanks for the Luv 🖖🏾👽 .. the feeling's mutual #🙏🏾

[@GlenSmall-n6f]

Gifted Talented. Great speaker and motivational. Much love and you have encouraged me to get back playing my drums.

[@DrSend]

This is A REAL ARTIST! Great iteractive!

[@Jones_to_Bear]

Why is this the first I’m hearing from this guy? This is incredible. I have just eaten my favourite cheese with a fantastic bottle of wine, now I’m watching this on the toilet. Life doesn’t get any better.

[@jdb3611]

This is a powerful guy....and I don’t just mean on the drums! Great job!

[@archangel5627]

Chris Coleman is a beast on the drums. Get him behind a kit and all hell breaks loose in the best possible way! I love how he uses two snares, one with a deeper fuller sound and the other has a sharper flatter sound. Total beast behind a kit!💪🏻🤘🏻😎

@@chrishill4515 Thanks. That's the part I came for🤣

[@palainanoctem3776]

You mislabeled those. You meant fast, faster, ludicrous speed lol I've heard of this drummer but this is my first time fully enjoying his playing

[@palainanoctem3776]

That's the actual soul of the drum kit in human form! It's rare to catch one in its natural environment as they are a dying breed. This is a master at their craft. Oh his playing is exquisite!!!

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

LOL! All I can do is laugh at this because it's so good! Chris is just a different species. Also, loved to see him giving props to Norbert and Chris. To me they are the gems of the drum world and am glad to call them family. Meinl Festival just keeps getting better and better. Amazing fellas!

[@willmendez4168]

Funny

[@eddiethenose3018]

His drumming is of course light years beyond my ability to play, but it even exceeds my ability to follow at some points. Chris is brilliant, and is an absolute class act.

[@ozziep123]

LOVE this man! I need to catch him gigging live one day!

[@danjamang1746]

What an inspiration. One of my favourite drummers if all time, absolute legend!

[@monieolskool7442]

This man is absolutely AMAZING on those drums! Not to mention he has such a beautiful personality to go with it! It’s drummers like this who actually love their craft that inspire me to play drums as well :”)

[@47Robbi]

Fantabulous!

[@drtalkboxsa9412]

now this is just on another level. the crowd mic mixing is incredible

[@samanderson8142]

What an absolute master. A pleasure to listen to. And, man, that ride cymbal makes me weak in the knees.

[@deepakgurung4699]

His Drum clinic in Hong Kong was one of the best that I had ever attended guy is so humble and friendly, and of course his drumming was mind blowing.

[@GrooveisKing]

Dudes a beast. It's not easy for us drummers to get miked up like that and talk lol we usually speak through the kit so always cool to see a drummer who has the ability to speak and connect, very cool

I've never heard of these cymbals until recently, I still haven't had the chance to check them out. But I'm assuming that they must be great cymbals. Mr. Coleman is a truly spectacular drummer.

[@sanityinaseaofmadness7353]

As I'm watching this clip, I wanted to give a shout out to Meinl and their artist endorsements over the last decade. Greb and Coleman and Garstka - and probably a few I'm forgetting - have gotten me to covet Meinl sounds. I love some of the textures which have filled in some defeinite "sound holes" in my cymbal array. Anyhoo, kudos - you folks (thru your highlighting and sponsoring of some singularly amazing artists) have pulled new customers in.
