[@david-scott-drums8684]

The whole crowd fist pumping to the song was awesome

[@ReactIVT]

The Shibuya Crossing is always a sight to see. Overall quality of the video was really good. I would love to know what body cam you're using. I just can't seem to find any...

[@GSA_Drums]

Seeing the behind the scenes.. watch out that you don’t burn out. Really awesome stuff… you‘ve come a long way since your first videos 👏🔥👌😎😄🥁

[@ThOoMii013]

This was an awesome video!! And lots of respect for the insane hard work and lack of sleep. I have to say you can really notice you are growing bigger!! How do you find the time and commitment to both doing the shows and training so hard! Mad respect!! See you guys in may in the Netherlands!

[@gianski3306]

The opener is Yoasobi?!?! They are probably one of the biggest groups to come from Japan as of recent time! That should explain their production because they’re very well known world wide especially online where communities of Japanese music lovers and tiktokers(unfortunately if you learn the context) just spread their music.

[@ronrocker7131]

Why 'unfortunately'? Is it some kind of a sketchy, toxic community on TikTok?

[@metrotyler]

@@ronrocker7131 no, it's just the classic "tiktok makes everything bad" dilemma

[@TardSoftQB]

@@ronrocker7131na, tik tok is just known to ruin music

[@SunrayZxd]

haha I paused at 4:50 because i thought the EXACT same thing like: wait, that singer sounds awfully familiar! 🤣

[@frostedspark]

I think it's because TikTokers spread the music around through dances without understanding the contexts of the songs (they're often associated with dark and depressing topics like suicide) and all the while people are dancing like it's describing rainbows and sunshine. Just a lack of consideration and knowledge really.@@ronrocker7131 Hope that helps

[@dylanb3099]

Yoasobi as an opener is insane, I love it

[@abhinavraghunandan5343]

I absolutely love this kinda content :))) Please put up more

[@paulamoura6945]

lets go

[@kmkzefrvr]

this is by far the most fresh content for drummers on the internet... thank you for the simple editing too ^^

[@nickhirst7192]

Not just for drummers, but anybody that is or has been in a band!

[@krishs1302]

loved the matt horn kinda vibe . put more videos like this

[@Faygi68]

i was gonna say its nice to have both perspectives. Now you can watch matts videos on being a drum tech and this video on the drummers pov. even if it's not the same band.

[@stickdrumsnrocknroll]

I love these POV's vlogs ! Matt Horn (Luke Holland's drum tech) is doing the same kind of videos while touring and it's awesome. So please keep posting some for us ! Thanks Gabe :)

[@standbyDtH]

I really love crowd in japan being so into the songs. Like that interaction on 12:48 ? everyone joined. I LOVE that!

[@ogKalmari]

This was so peaceful to watch but also very interesting. After long day these kind of videos are the best when you get chill backround music and the backround noises.

[@demogice]

even I got nervous before the show started

[@cltubby]

Awesome content! Seeing Shibuya again brings back many memories. Stationed at Yokota AB outside Tokyo for 3 years. My family didn't want to leave. Kids absolutely loved it there. Hope you enjoyed your time there.

[@xylicg6072]

why did you leave

[@Luancwav]

I was expecting a 24h long video

[@JustK4Y1512]

Rest in peace to Gabe’s privacy then 😅😅😅

[@BenceFetes]

Same, instead we got an almost 24 MINUTE video

[@Good_Behavior14YT]

Dude he needs privacy

[@JaydenBaumann-t3g]

Dude holy fuck i cant believe your playing these big of shows now i literally watched your shit when i was 11 to about 14 and i taught myself how to play im in a death metal band now and im 18 and its just crazy seeing how far youve come and the quality of your videos and playing your such a beast

[@flappy3635]

whats the name of your band?

[@JaydenBaumann-t3g]

@@flappy3635 LitWax 🤘 lmk what u think

[@twipps7700]

That live sound is so insanely awesome

[@Beany58]

Awesome video, really fun and interesting to see what it's like behind the scenes. Would also love to see a video or something about your workout routine, I know it's not really drum related but would be really cool to find out, it's interesting how you can maintain such a great physique whilst touring and playing drums intensely so often 🥁

[@mikestix88]

Thanks for this! Loved all of it and the opener song was insane! And as a drummer myself I can appreciate how on point you were all around and all the kicks! Super solid! I really appreciated seeing the whole routine! This was really cool to watch because I've wanted to play music big time like that since I was young but I never got that however sometimes I think maybe it was for a good reason. Now married for 9 years and 2 little girls and a drum kit at home and working a steady roofing job for the last 4 years in northern Indiana right by Michigan, I get up early 4:10 am everyday and work outside year round and you know Michigan winters. So it was really cool to see your life style!

[@affaefd4093]

great video!, it's very relaxing with the text rather than voice over, slow-phased, interesting cuts, with great audio, overall I really enjoyed it

[@klomber]

fucking crazy that you are going all over the world playing drums with I Prevail, so fucking cool!

[@SDH_Edits]

those "All Hail"' from the crowd was such a vibe, it actually gave me chills

[@withadraco]

your handshakes are so fucking awesome! lmao im so glad i found your channel. your songs hyped me up for my 5 mile HIIT sprint/distance run workout today! cheers bro good luck with everything love your music! hope to see you live at some point!!!

[@gromheat]

watching your videos have actually inspired me to keep up with my drumming. at 43 sometimes its hard to find the time to practice everyday. somedays i don't have the energy but i watch these tour videos and videos of chad smith playing random stuff and it amps me up to keep it going. I don't wanna be a rockstar, i just want to make music.

[@MrGhostNote]

Love your vlogs man this was so sick the energy between you and your'e band mates is hilarious. More vlogs would be great.

[@CrackDad]

Dude, walking through Japan is true peace I feel you there! Brought back a lot of childhood memories so thank you!

[@AfterTheHorizonBand]

I loved this video! Drummer Dre commenting here from After the Horizon. My favorite part was the stick warm-ups and your bands before the show handshake ritual. Our band has something small but it would be cool to make it bigger. Keep rocking! Would love to open for you in Toronto, Canada!

[@LittletriniWeeb]

That preshow ritual is adorable 😊

[@KIRSCHE_LIVE]

I love their handshakes

[@fink94]

Great video! Loved it! That POV camera with only some text is the best

[@TyDarapiza]

That Hot Rod chant is legit! Had me rolling!

[@givenspade]

did you ever release your workout routine? as a skinny person, I'm also trying to bulk up so I love to see what other people do!

[@DavidSmith-ev1bd]

I was in the scene for 4 years. These videos really bring back memories of all the stage shenanigans. Keep it up man.

[@Epiphun]

That is so motivating. Feels like a life I would love to live. Great job. Please bring more of that.

[@billk9799]

As a fan, I like watching the band onstage having fun and killing it and as a musician when on stage I'm trying my best for the audience and the rest of the band to have fun! Watching you guys RIPPING IT in front of such crowd (20000???), only makes me happier and try to make as better shows as possible in the future! Love your channel man, keep 'em coming!

[@DerrikGuzzoDrums]

This content is amazing, I wish we saw more drum cams 😢😢😢 Your killing it my man

[@V1p3r0ps]

I have never listened to metal before and it came up in my feed for drumming. I actually like this. I am 47 years old and i was rocking to this song. It's badass. All parts of it. The melodies and drumming was insane. Good job!

[@lokrogamer29]

Its cool to see how its looks behind the stage. And from your perspective, i can see how big the stages are.

[@markduran8476]

Thank you for showing 110% Effort = 110% Success.

[@Boomer112]

I don't know why, but... these kinds of videos has a special place in my heart! 🙏❤ I just love watching behind the scenes stuff, and POV's etc of drummers, artists, etc!

[@thatonekid1732]

I have never drummed, had interest in drumming, or will be a drummer, but living a performance day through your POV is amazing. I love how silly and snarky you are in the subtitles, it sounds like my own inner thoughts. You're awesome :] Keep it up

[@The_KlaVra]

This feels like the other side of Matt Horns video, where Matt Horns shows you the back stage, the setup of drums, the load in and load out and all the background stuff, this feels like the other side, the side the drummer sees, they show up to play the show, everything is done, they just have to come and do their side of the job. Its so crazy seeing both sides of the coin.

[@HWTDS]

Dude. I've honestly never heard of your band before seeing these top notch pov videos. But I'll say this you have a new fan. You guys rock. Been a drummer myself for al.ost 30.years. watching these videos just makes me want to take my drumming and my band up.10 notches. Thank you for the great content

[@rifqirofian1790]

dude, your light guy is so awesome. he's so enjoy with what he worked on

[@mariemcfarland7915]

Subscribed! If you're watching your stats you'll know I'm a 55-year-old woman. I follow and otherwise click on a lot of drum content because I started drum lessons 9 months ago and want to learn about ALL of it. This was served to me last night. You'll also see that I keep coming back to Body Bag. I'm going to play that some day!

[@MouZ245]

KZbin decided to show me this and I am so happy for it. The show was HUGE! I could feel the emotions even though sitting in my small flat in front of the monitor. Huge! I would love to see more of this!

[@MalrusOSC]

This video feels so Matt Horn-esque

[@ZoranRadovanovDrums]

this is Matt's influence

[@michaelrhinehart5305]

this contents is awesome especially for someone who dreams of going tour

[@kittkattenn]

I find it so wholesome that you go from drumming your heart out and then 5 seconds after it ends we're back to calm lofi music!!

[@theDurman]

This video made me happy. Love seeing the ins and outs of the hustle and work that goes into a tour. Great work!

[@davidcolquitt]

Bro, that shower after a show feels magical. Often double soaped because I was so sweaty 😂 loving the BTS stuff

[@ClashesYt]

The fun starts at 9:57

[@trblmkr5139]

Love Gabe man.He has been bringing us with him since he first started playing with IPrevail a couple years back and I feel like Im part of the band every time.

[@jackw3302]

Body Bag is a great way to start your shows. Perfect beginning to set it up.

[@C5drummer]

YES, PLEASE!! More! We want....M-O-R-E!! Thank you for this, your academy, your lessons, etc. From all your fans here, Thank you!!

[@Macaroni1983]

living my dream life. hopefully someday i can go on tour with my band or as an artist myself

[@ytpremium1165]

Absolutely! I'm lucky to watching your performed when you come to Jakarta, Indonesia! And now, I always hear your music before I started to work! Thankyou!!!

[@brunoanjos5686]

What’s the name of the band? I Love there song

[@YinLieh]

@@brunoanjos5686i prevail that’s the name of the band

[@Ethanlewis903]

1:43 "Eric (Screams)" got me dying

[@Full_throttle_gas]

Dude! You povs are so inspiring!! Just watching you videos has got me listening to I Prevail. I am a drummer played for some good bands. Had a lot of fun. I’m a bit older than you but this is so motivating! Thank you sir!

[@bt719]

Thanks for the peek behind-the-scenes! And you got a new listener.

[@MaybeHarvey]

I could would watch an extended cut of this, this is one of my favourite videos on KZbin in recent memory

[@AlexHDrums]

Super cool content here man! Kudos for continuing to grind DBO while on tour. Thumbs up on the workout regiment - drumming keeps my arms thinner and my core droopy lmao

[@chrismonroe8417]

The pre show tradition stuff is AMAZING. Great stuff yall!

[@lukaskouba]

maaaan, love this video... thank you!🖤

[@prashivec.]

Agree

[@TallmanMike]

I keep re-watching the pre-show ritual and it cracks me up. I'm glad you guys have kept the tradition so long! Great video.

[@Tomogeny]

Holy shit Yoasobi is probably my favorite band atm together with I prevail. I would have sold my kidney for this show

[@jasonlee3759]

As a fellow drummer and music lover, in general, what a unique adventure this was very cool and what a great spot to land on for those shows in Japan. Geez, talk about exposure. happy holidays everyone 👏👏🤘💕

[@crogotem3341]

honestly, this video really made me love drummers, its probably so chill just being in the corner doing your own thing you know, not really the main attraction on stage, but playing a critical role in music, because without drums, music is just dull and boring

[@calebpettis9971]

Feels like a Matt Horn video!!! Awesome

[@Lexi_Chi_5]

Gabe, I caught your drum stick at Good Things, Brisbane!!!!

[@KroviVT]

I hope you had a blast at Rockaholic. I lived in Japan for 4 years and I went there almost every night.

[@RectalPower]

Those POV videos are freaking awesome!

[@otrsurvival6908]

Holy shit, that was sick! I've been in some large crowds for meet and greets, but 20000, BRO! Most of us will never see this POV. what a treat to see it through you. Thanks!

[@MetalDrummer_666]

Wow man, this is awesome. Thank you for filming and sharing. Your drumming is insane! This is the sort of world we amateur metal drummers can only dream of🤘so pleased for you boys.

[@armandoaltabertgil5673]

I want to stay and live on these videos, they are so inspiring!!! More of these please!!!

[@treedog24]

YES TO YOU ADDING THE WORKOUT VIDEO ON HERE OR DBO! That was killer to watch. 🤘🤘

[@edwardwiley9597]

i love the grandmas boy (JP) reference ha-ha, great KZbin work along side everything you already do for your band, it it just amazing man.

[@mcopilot]

awesome. I know how he touring can be mad. please share all of your tour vids. thanks for doing this. us fans love it.

[@mondragon9282]

Yep, recording a cover of Body Bag now. Perfect video to learn from. Thanks, Gabe!!! Oh yea, it was cool to see how your days go on tour, also!!

[@Gamerboy-nt6ry]

This video is sick🔥 I want more videos like this!

[@fr0ost103]

Man, i love this type of content, i love seeing you and I Prevail doing some things that we don't see very often, i want you all to be in Chile someday!!!

[@5280guy]

This is so cool, and I have always had a special place for I prevail since I am from Michigan too!

[@sure5679]

bro really is inspecting his drumsticks with 130° fov 6:23 nice animation

[@technikalcancer9574]

Hope this finds you well. Just browsing the interweb and found this video, did not realize who y'all were until I saw the sign on the door. Was astounded to find y'all after listening too y'all for so long.

[@RaxGab]

So awesome to see how you and the guys have so much! Your one of the best drummers on the planet cant wait to see you guys again in amsterdam!

[@beyond_the_tequila_rift3194]

I love the ritual right before y'all hit the stage, very cult like in a happy go lucky manner 🤣 but even just seeing your warm up routine was amazing!!

[@ThOoMii013]

Can't wait to see you guys next year in the Netherlands!!!

[@donzender9008]

You're a long way from Michigan....thank you for sharing!

[@deedstreak]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Please do more. Loved the inner monologue.

[@EmilJonsson94]

Love the content... But the fact you didn't shower. I travel around 200 days per year and what usually saves me are the showers. Just do them quick sometimes but really gives you a feeling of being fresh and energy.

[@david-scott-drums8684]

This is probably one of my favorite tour videos. And you showed an entire song. SO EPIC!!!

[@abelarmandolopez9413]

This video represents my dream as a drummer, what a great video, brother, keep uploading it because it inspires me to continue as a starting drummer ❤️🤙

Share the workout routine. I’ve always been curious how y’all get after it on tour. 🤙🏻💪🏻

[@finnvanlieshout595]

Please more videos like this, they are great! Plus we’d love to see the workout routine

[@stephenkeith1426]

I’ve never thought to use a massager on my arms to loosen myself up before a show. Holy shit! That’s game changing!

[@masu7015]

Absolutely I wanna see more videos like this! Experienced this kind of things is like a dream. Probably the best vlog I've ever seen

[@jackw3302]

I love those big circle pits. You can just feel the energy. Biggest one I've ever been in was probably Rancid at the Palladium in Hollywood or Pennywise at Warped Tour.
