[@RondaGuptonPruett]

In a perfect world all concerts would be filmed from right behind the drummer.

[@BrianMatthews1987]

Thomas Lang is good too.. Drummer that is

[@RondaGuptonPruett]

Lang is one of my favorites due to his technical ability, but not one of my favorites to watch for hours at a time.

[@paradigmshiftz7]

Ronda Gupton-Pruett I agree, or at least focused on the drummer the whole show

[@anthonyjones3835]

Matt garstka better then all of them

[@VeryScaryBiscuits]

Travis always goes hard. He's a fearless drummer. Even his haters have got to respect that

[@agungmunthe]

doing that kind of single stroke fill, at that kind of speed and that kind of power is not an easy job. PS: you got to do that for the whole concert. RESPECT!!

[@OFFICIALBLINK182DRUMCOVERS]

LEGEND ALSO SICK INTRO IN 5

[@stevenlayton1262]

The band from guitar hero 2 got signed? Sick!

[@devongonzalez2037]

been coming back to this video for the past 8 years every now and again. this seems hard to play no matter what energy levels you have lol

[@munezawa1981]

So fantastic song.

[@Leerun01]

I dig it!

[@user-hq1kl9hd6h]

[@cashedoutmyluck]

23rd best drummer in the world for a reason 💯

[@ary.ary1984]

[@sixty-eightwhiskey7983]

Dude is so good

[@plessdrums]

distinctive !!!

[@diegokonts]

Yep!

[@mhcdrum]

Killin it in 5/4

[@AlexLopez-mq3ip]

Michael Curran its 4/4

[@anthonyjones3835]

Love how his toms are low and straight up

[@OGecalien]

People don’t understand how hard it is to play a kit this way. And why does he do that? Style.

[@Abandoned978]

@@OGecalien well, I don't think it's a style thing. Having the toms flat allows for more of the force of the stick to be thrown directly into the drums. Playing them flat like that, however, would also mean they'd need to be lower so you're actually hitting the drum and not the rims

[@goonadan12]

He’s used to marching band so plays everything really flat like a marching snare

[@KlitasRecords]

@@OGecalien you right. Its hard, mostly first try on this setup, you're gonna hit tom's ring a lot, and its kinda hard to play fast stroke roll over tom and floor, i've been there, it just takes times

[@ThibaultTresca]

Sweet.

[@jsanca]

Great

[@trikus7871]

Nice song+attitude

[@suantara832]

Travis great drummer

[@pillapole]

No, some parts are in 5/4. Listen 2 it.

[@aney7xdizm]

nice

[@Jota950201]

DOPE Travis King!

[@leifberger7824]

come on, guys what are you expecting?? this is not a drum clinic or something, hes doing a great job, grooving and putting energy into the performance! for this musical setting hes playing very well!

[@shawnmolocho25]

2:02 te best fill

[@eliassilva4400]

Does anybody know what ride did he use to record the In A Warzone cd? It seems it's not a 23" or 21" Sweet Ride... it sounds more like a Z Custom Mega Bell, or some other dry ride

[@3xp3rt12]

D: this was in boston?? i wish i went!

[@brandomendezz]

Diganme qe cancion es esa

[@mhcdrum]

check out the transcription drummagazine. com/features/post/travis-barker-punk-transplant/

[@slumericanshitizen6717]

Elias Silva For the recording of "In a warzone" Travis was using K cymbals. He used a normal K Series 21" Ride. On tour he played the same set up as he plays with Blink. I hope I could help you.

[@drumsonly44]

a series 21" sweet ride

[@slumericanshitizen6717]

both I think. there where pictures from the studio where he played K customs

[@slumericanshitizen6717]

both I think. there where pictures from the studio where he played K customs

[@paradigmshiftz7]

K Ride in the studio, A Sweet Ride live.

[@whoknowsbruvs]

Travis Barker isn't the best, but he is among the best.

[@SuperDrummerful]

You've got to remember he's putting on a show, it's got to be lively. If he sat there the whole show conserving energy the whole time it would be boring.

[@antiago1983]

Finally he lowered the hi-hat, now is PERFECT.

[@paradigmshiftz7]

Lowered but not low enough to give the haters one less reason to annoyingly hate him.

[@CatchingGreenLights]

I gotta get me some shallow toms. They sound good and you can play em low.

[@paradigmshiftz7]

CatchingGreenLights tama superstar hyperdrive have quite shallow toms 6.5x10 7x12

[@MattLees222]

Landon? 0.21

[@borntoball15x]

I might be wrong but i think i hear a little 7/8 right after the count off at 0:16

[@etdehbuset]

lol the haters that think they could do better than this man on the video

[@ynotsammy]

If you can't play this song; you should not be a drummer... that's how easy this song is to play.

[@StevenGreeneberg]

I feel like even when Travis is 70 years old he'll play like this... and thats OK lmao

[@johndoe2883]

Steven Greeneberg he wishes

[@nobears2983]

The song itself is in 4/4, but what Travis is playing has a 5/4 feel to it in that he's playing five-beat phrases. If you listen past the drums to what the bass is playing, it's pretty clear where the measures are, and they're definitely in 4/4. So you could kind of argue this either way--if it was a drum solo, I'd probably notate the first few measures in 5/4, but given the context of the song, I'd say it's just 4/4 with interesting phrasing in the drums.

[@anggeraprasetyo5616]

Is 5/4 the part when he do some single stroke roll fill?

[@nobears2983]

anggera prasetyo No, just the intro of the song before the vocals come in - but it's not actually 5/4. It's eight measures of 4/4, and he's playing five rounds of a 5-beat phrase that crosses the bar and then re-aligns with the rest of the band for the last seven beats leading into the first verse.

[@firmans12]

come on stop hating on travis hes old and can hitting drum hard that still good

[@guillermoalarcosifuentes7369]

I think that you should ask yourself how he uses his stamina to play drums like that

[@levelupcrew]

wait a minute, that kid playing guitar is his kid????? this is so awesome!

[@khaerulaliman9825]

Elvis Costello from Left Alone

[@hazardtriplezero]

​@@khaerulaliman9825Crespo, but you're right.

[@whoknowsbruvs]

Yes he is, he is playing in Blink-182 so his talent is quite clearly not going to be being shown off

[@JimmersThomas]

Does he play extra long sticks, or just hold them in the middle?

[@kepaledungu2]

His drumstick are longer than normal drumstick. That's why he can hold it in the middle.

[@JimmersThomas]

cool thanks - might look into what they are, I often find mine too short

[@FTWx81]

JimmersThomas he uses an hybrid of 7A and 7B. he´s dumsticks are the lenght of a 7B with the lightness and comfort of a 7A

[@drumsonly44]

he has his own custom zildjian travis barker sticks which you can buy

[@FTWx81]

those aren´t the real sticks he use, they´re indoor marching sticks :P

[@themoaspecial]

Travis CAN actually relax and play and use more fingers and wrist when he plays. He just decides not to for some reason.

[@illhancovers3801]

Doesn’t match the song

[@johnnyquid2762]

from 2:08 to like 2:12, it looks like theres a kid playing the guitar, am I seeing that wrong??

[@abethedrummer]

Sometimes his kids runaround the stage

[@illhancovers3801]

That’s hit son Landon

[@06livefast]

Not even close, but very talented none the less

[@nickomckilo]

what's so good of this performance?

[@Body_Dropped]

nickomckilo everything hes the best

[@PunkSkunkGames]

o'huenno

[@ocdptony7044]

Can he do anything else but singles stroke rolls

[@BrettJG83]

Nasty. Just nasty. No one else can do drums like that

[@ynotsammy]

No one? The whole song is in 4/4 playing basic beats, I am pretty sure others can too.

[@currents._2062]

Samuel Janzen yea furreel its easy

[@littlet1954]

@@currents._2062 ha ha 4/4 so what? its not solo travis accents on upbeat its cool in live show "Performance Series"

[@jawarocknusantarajawa8339]

Ayone

[@jonnyboy531]

@hazza4pompeyfc I'm not saying he doesn't have talent, but to be considered among the greats is to be outstanding. Benny Greb, Gavin Harrison, Danny Carey, Marco Minneman, Neil Peart, Simon Phillips, Todd Sucherman etc, are just a few examples of some of the greatest around. While Travis may succeed in his genre, the men I listed have gone above and beyond in their fields and are cut from a different cloth than most of today's drummers. There's just simply no comparison

[@06livefast]

That just means he is the most inspiring drummer to kids, or the best drummer in his genre. There are drummers who are far more talented and just better at the actual craft and art of being a drummer and percussionist (groove, feel, sense of timing in regards to experimenting with different time signatures not just 4/4, etc). Travis is dope and entertaining to watch, but his beats are basic and sound like simple warmups, and there are countless drummers who could destroy him in all aspects

[@NICKHAM16]

The entire song is in 4/4...

[@Tryingtobeme]

I disagree with everything that has been previously stated.

[@TwoThirdsTall]

Every one who says he's the greatest drummer ever has no idea what great drumming is. Look up Gavin Harrison or Benny Greb. Those guys are real drummers. Not just hitting things as hard as they can to look cool

[@nugaming2498]

He’s a “real” drummer, he plays perfect for the song, there’s literally nothing that would sound better in the tunes he plays in than what he’s playing

[@notatroll6809]

Haters of barker don't consider how he changed the expectations and reality of what a drum set can do and sound like for the punk genre. He would mimic the melodies of the guitar and vocals, not too mention being an icon. Young drummers try to replicate his look and style of playing. You don't have to like him or his music but to not realize that makes you total snob.

[@yungkfs2554]

Oh yeah because Barker is going to play immensely complicated stuff for the punk rock he's playing? Hitting hard has an effect on the audience, play with energy and its feeds off into them, they react to it, and it continuously cycles from audience to band. Hitting hard really isn't just to 'look cool'.

[@TwoThirdsTall]

No thats wrong it doesn't "feed energy" it has no effect they lower his volume to compensate for for his hard hitting so if he played like a normal drummer they'd just put his volume back up and he'd sound exactly the same. His shiny drums and flailing arms captures idiots attention and because of that they think he's good he's no better than the average 15 or 16 year old drummer. And before you bring up the fact he's famous he only is because the rest of his band wrote decent music.

[@dan-syndrome5883]

"he's no better than the average 15 or 16 year old drummer" LOL...you fool

[@benjseig]

Fun fact, Tom Delonge started writing his guitar parts to Travis' drumming on blink-182's album, "Enema of the State," because of his creative and melodic drumming. He's famous because he's a good drummer who can play more melodically on drums than some people can play on a guitar.

[@gullatine1]

Yeah well nobody cares because he is still a better drummer than you and always will be. His style is what makes him, HIM

[@bplatz829]

You mean unnatural for you. He's playing what is natural for him, leave it at that.

[@JohnSmith-pp7ux]

Yet another Zildjian video where they're too lazy to list the artist's Zildjian cymbals.

[@paradigmshiftz7]

Should I list them for you? 14" A Quick Beat Hats in Brilliant 10" Trashformer over a 14" A Custom Crash 18" A Custom Crash 16" A Custom Crash 21" A Sweet Ride Brilliant 19" A Custom Crash 18" Oriental China You're welcome

[@jonnyboy531]

Lol, no. Not even close.

[@hojima]

Honestly, I dont like this guy at all, but hes a pretty solid drummer. His fills are fine and hes pretty tight in the context of this song (which isnt very good). The solo videos he does are dogshit though.

[@stevenlayton1262]

He's good, but lacks creativity in my opinion.

[@paradigmshiftz7]

You've got to be kidding me... call him anything you want, overrated af, basic, unconventional, average, anything. But you can't say he lacks creativity. There's tons of evidence that will show that he has creativity. Maybe his creativity aren't up to your standards, but for the music he plays, it's awesome

[@TrinidadQG]

Lady and gentleman the Most overrated drummer of the whole world.

[@birdtheword7836]

nah

[@davedavidson8738]

Ladies and gentlemen, the guy who goes on youtube just to post negative things about popular musicians.

[@mastaroshi8918]

Calm down Doris

[@abielst7581]

Who mentioned Lars Ulrich?

[@abielst7581]

and he is nothing

[@TheEverlong12]

My opinion about Travis's style is unnatural because his drums are really low and he's using too much arms and he's wasting a lot of energy

[@TwoThirdsTall]

No he has no creativity and his speed is pretty average among professional drummers, and the only reason he's famous is because his shiny kit and hitting drums as hard as he can appeals to young kids who think they know what drumming is
