Patrick Carney - The Black Keys - Kit Rundown

[@jcollins1305]

Very nice to see a guy who's honest about his level of playing, and enjoying the time. "Never practiced, never took a lesson" But he has his own style, and that's what important!

[@davidperez5089]

No lessons i believe. Never practice Is hard to swallow. Never say never, right?!

[@clemclemson9259]

everyone somewhere, from someone , has taken a lesson. i dont know why people say that. they may not want to admit or realize they had lessons but thats OK too.

[@davidperez5089]

@@clemclemson9259 if you say you dont practice then you dont rehearse with the band either!

[@VanBrujah]

Yeah, he doesn't need to point out he's never had a lesson. It's pretty obvious.

[@Grayham4]

@@VanBrujah never liked his playing

[@derekmotta6926]

Patrick proves that having your own style is the most important factor. This man is phenomenal in his own right. You don’t have to be a super drummer to sell records. You need to be a super artist. Mad respect.

[@kjhammersteinMusic]

Absolutely love that finish! I too have done kick head with sharpie. My trick is to turn it over and do the inside of the reso head too. Kinda fills in the scribbles. Great rig rundown!! And a great drummer.

[@pepe7drum]

You guys took forever to make this videos, we needed drummers kit rundown, please, please! keep doing this

[@dukermoon]

Pat killed it at the Hollywood Bowl with GnR. Sounded like an album.

[@miguelquinones624]

I was at this show! An amazing sounding kit, and a great set!

[@SKragseth]

Simple set up. Sounds killer!

[@AlbertMoyerJr]

That's a nice-looking wrap! Cool kit!

[@robqualls588]

I saw The Black Keys this week. I really like his sound, like he said very dry, nice thud. The simplicity is just part of the sound. If he was over there trying to be Niel Pert with Dan Auerbachs gnarly, thick riffs, it would be a mess.

[@SnortGravy]

Loving the hd dry batter on the snare been using it for a few years now

[@mullrump2]

playin the music and for the music...its not a competition ....a lesson in itself...

[@laquerhead024]

Respect for the Jon Spencer reference. That band is fuckin awesome..

[@rockerbob949]

Man I have a 26” Ludwig on order ……taking 4 EVER. And dammit I want those 15” HH too. Fuckin’ sick kit

[@dugjay]

That snare! I'm guessing that we didn't hear the mic'd version but just through the sound recording equipment used for this? I have two Black Beauty snares and this one is incredible!

[@drummerchappell]

This is one of my favourite drum wraps. I was hoping he’d talk about the drum sizes, I think he mentioned a 26 bass but I’m not sure he said the tom sizes.

[@geeza1200]

At a guess, i would say a 14x12 “rack” tom, and then either two 18” floors or an 18 and a 16

[@drummerchappell]

@@geeza1200 At first I was thinking, there’s no way it’s a 14x12. But after rewatching the video, it does actually look like a pretty deep tom tom. I think you’re right, if not 14x10, but it looks deeper. Thanks for your input

[@geeza1200]

@@drummerchappell 14x10s look abit more square, comparing to Bonham’s rack tom size which was 14x10 and Pats is definitely deeper so id be pretty confident in 14x12

[@drummerchappell]

@@geeza1200 That’s exactly what I was thinking, I was going to say they Bonham’s looked more square but I wasn’t sure if that made sense. But I definitely agree with you, his original 14 on the thermogloss kit was apparently 12 deep, (later cut down to 10 by the new owner, which sounds insane now. Maybe he didn’t realize what he had at the time as it was apparently just a couple years into Zeppelins career when he acquired the kit) but that Tom looks very similar in size to this one. So yes I think you’re right. I always love talking drums and figuring out little details, so thanks for the reply!

[@marvelharris9540]

I want that drum kit damnit!!

[@davejohnson607]

I saw the black keys in July at red rocks.wasnt really into the band.but after seeing them they're pretty good.i really liked the drummer and liked the way they put him out front on the stage.oh and I'm a fan of the band now.they sound great live. 👍

[@patrickholstein7717]

He came into guitar center when I was working there looking for cymbals and I said can't go wrong with Paiste John bonnom used em. So I sold him on that.

[@thestrawman15]

Thank you for doing these. Keep sharing these please! 🙏🏻🤘🏻

[@davidcurtis4478]

Cool keep Rockin' 👍👍

[@ClayDoogun]

He plays like a middle schooler in jazz band

[@thesneakygamer4343]

Saw them live one time and couldn’t believe how bad he was. He messed up on six or seven songs and he drags sooo much

[@tehallanaz]

Dope

[@chrisfreeman4957]

What's a kicker for in ear monitors? Is that some kind of amp?

[@fjcuccia]

[@waveemann8857]

Still can't believe this dude cheated on Michelle Branch lmfao

[@maddrummerhef]

Dudes net worth is like 20 million but he “didn’t have the money” lol

[@beetlejews]

Yeah bro I was like wtf

[@bhutch216]

I don’t have the money so I’ll just call Ludwig and get it for free.

[@eldiablo3794]

You can def tell hes a self taught drummer who probably never practices.

[@IceCubeInMyIceTea]

What was that device on his stool?

[@Howareyouzig]

It’s a subwoofer for his ass

[@brentharmonmusicproduction]

What mics is Patrick using ?

[@AriocKaichi]

4:13 He's in....the Apricot Zone...

[@unknownbrother273]

All of you saying he's a bad drummer are idiots. Can you not comprehend other styles of music? Not all drumming has to be complex. Pat is simple, and Pat is fine.

[@harryrathien1082]

Other styles my foot! He couldn't even keep time in his little demo at the end of this video.

[@ferd1572]

It's not that we can't comprehend other styles of music, it's just that he's a lacklustre drummer

[@dedbetter]

He sucks at drumming and he cheated on Michelle Branch. Pat is simply a simple dumbass

[@ericbriglia5136]

Honestly.. my dude can't play the drums to save his life. 😂

[@clemclemson9259]

lol its amazing.. a lot of it is in the gear and the production.

[@TheKiddos77]

Saw them recently and he’s a terrible drummer.

[@clemclemson9259]

its amazing isnt it...

[@nickhohman3779]

Come on Modern Drummer, why did you waste time talking to this hack? To other drummers, please checkout drummers that can actually play. Total embarrassment! Guy admits he can’t play!

[@peepingtom5547]

The Ride does not look like a 24 at all to me

[@bhutch216]

You can get by if you’re good with a computer and music software and make fake drum tracks. “Can’t have a good show without a good drummer” so he’s saying the Black Keys isn’t a good show?

[@stevenkerr5200]

CHEATS ON WIFE!

[@Officialshayne]

Lo/Fi drum sound

[@leoshcater1966]

his style became more lazy and lost the creativity of the first albums, like Lars jeje

[@jackmakackov7077]

did he buy second hand from the Mastadon guy? Otherwise why make something that ugly that isn't an original idea?

[@cowboykidd]

A terrible drummer. bad technique. Can’t keep time. Go listen to the arcs - dan Auerbach’s other band if you wanna listen to some good music

[@peopletalking1953]

We can tell you’ve never practiced

[@TwnFames]

He said its not a competition and it's not. funny thing is he's worth 20 mil and a touring musician and everyone on here hating him is an anonymous commenter that no one knows. And before you say something, I've been playing drums 20 years an am a professional musician so...
