Slaughter - Fly to the Angels/Up All Night shot from the kit

[@samichhaze3873]

Drummers are a different breed .!! He is wildly talented

[@mahlonwalsh7609]

I have played drums for 41 years now and this guy makes me tired just watching him. Gotta love his energy! Bobby Dall of Poison once said he never set out to be a great musician, his goal was to be a rock star. This dude has made it.

[@jbm0866]

I played for a little more than half that time, but yeah...dude is burning tons of calories each show😂

[@WhiteOak09]

He's having way to much fun , great show 👏 👍 👌 😀.

[@mickobrien3156]

This guy makes drumming fun. It's hilarious. I love it! It fits perfectly with 80's rock, which is silly and fun and pretty dopey anyway. If you dislike this guy's drumming style... you're too uptight.

[@hotlanta35]

Your about 90% off base in your opinion/statement.

[@mickobrien3156]

@@hotlanta35 Nah sucka. You're off BASS. Haha. Word play. Always hilarious.

[@brentmartin4348]

A concert is meant to be ENTERTAINING and ENJOYABLE. This man, a former janitor, fulfills this and he is a rather EXCELLENT drummer who happens to have a rather unorthodox, high energy style and ENJOYS his " JOB" to the max in order to entertain the audience. Perhaps the haters out there would prefer a nice prim and proper boring Mormon as a drummer who's sole focus is on " Tradional Technique"? If that's the case, then watch the "Lawerence Welk" show and ENJOY!!

[@iamDavidLynam]

brent martin agreed!

[@benmartin7121]

Zolton "the animal from muppets " kicks ass.

[@jimrocker6027]

Well said my man! Ban the Thumbs Down Button! That's what I call Rock n Roll Entertainment!

This dudes timing while doing all the crazy shit is amazing!

[@rodjohnon4950]

Saw him in toledo for Vince neil. He stole the show. The man just kicked ass.

[@iamDavidLynam]

Rod Johnon yup he always steals the show.

[@drummerd3339]

That's the problem, he steals the show! The band should kick ass not just the drummer!

[@diablomolta3689]

Can't believe you paid to see vince neil

[@1rmrider]

Vince stole his donuts.

[@humblehombre9904]

It is drummers like this that made me start playing. Showmanship IS a great part of 80s music. He ROCKS it. There is no taking away that he is an excellent player. I cannot tell if this is Blas Elias or not (the original Slaughter drummer) who was voted greatest up and commer by Modern Drummer. And he was truly. I need to look this up, unless one of our buds here will let me know? Thanks so much brothers.

[@upinflames_01]

No, this isn't Blas Elias who's now drumming for Blue Man Group. This is Zoltan Chaney on drums with Slaughter. Zoltan and Slaugter bassist Dana Strum also play in the Vince Neil Band.

[@scooter2049]

What a machine , simply amazing !!!!

[@manoeldasilva7504]

Zoltan...my congratulations...for your playing performance...sucessful...great Zoltan..long life to you...

[@jterra8143]

Awesome Show! Incredible energy! Loved it!

[@docnasty74]

Absolute beast on the skins. Love this guy.

[@drumdude46]

This Band Needs Blas Back.

[@irocitZ]

Skid Row needs Sebastian back that's for sure but Slaughter will be just fine the way they are..

[@janellbauer3781]

I agree with you, Drummer!!

[@TheCatzMeowMix]

Blas... Blas... Blas.... I agree with you... Drummer Fella.

[@TheCatzMeowMix]

@@irocitZ ... I agree with you too. Meow. =^..^=

[@irocitZ]

@@TheCatzMeowMix I wonder what would happen if Blas really wanted to be back in the band, if it were anyone other than Zoltan I'm sure it would happen. Because he's different than most drummers and the fact he's so entertaining would make it difficult to just let him go, I don't see it happening.

[@divorcedwhiteman1968]

I'm old asf and I like watching him play, hes probably the best I've ever seen

[@poserwanabe]

I'm a drummer who found these videos today, I can't stop watching, fuck the haters, he's where he is for a reason, and it's not because he sucks believe me..

[@Arykperry]

My god is he the only drummer you’ve EVER seen or what ??

[@aldenunion]

Clem Burke is up there..But yeah,Talented.....

[@dink0011]

Obviously not necessary....but to me there's something endearing about this guys style. I understand all the purists hate but I dig it for some reason

[@dauntevivone3578]

He doesn't miss ever

[@beauch1119]

I can watch Zoltan all day man! He’s awesome!

[@jcksnghst]

Definitely my man! My kind of drumming, just play.... Very cool.

[@frankyzee2739]

Imagine the drummer was your friend and he asked to borrow your drum kit for a gig. I bet panic would set in your eyes.

[@user-ec6xd2ig4c]

That's some monster drumming style right there 😎

[@NJDVLS9500]

Got one of his sticks from the Motley Cruise 2008. I was totally blown away by his drumming.

[@michaelcarr6745]

Love that Drummer !! Kick ass showmanship

[@RobBluth]

An absolute joy to watch him. Although I'm surprised the band didn't ask him for some subtlety during Fly to the Angels

[@handsup74]

The drummer is the band.....Amazing!

[@pud]

2:50 when he kicks the cymbal, amazing.

[@valentinesbruises9448]

Over the top? Mehhhhh, he's up there and I'M NOT. So I see it as brilliant, fun, and a great drummer with his very own unique style. Bravo!

[@destin-e.blu3rainsinthefac37]

Right on man!

[@totigerus]

Good way to look at it

[@dauntevivone3578]

Indeed

[@daveshere]

Theres an 80s style of playing live! And , this guy said.... I'm going to over exaggerate it! To the extreme., (I get it) and I love it! 🥁

[@andymain2581]

This man's ability to keep tempo is amazing

[@phil7252]

The drummer makes this band pure entertainment I’d go to watch him on his own 🤘🏻

[@adityalimbu3470]

Wow amazing Drummer 👍👍👏👏

[@ki9701]

drum and dance man!!! so cool

[@Arykperry]

He could put all that energy into playing better and keeping time

[@Searchin4tone]

Agreed,

[@OlinKreutzRules]

While I don’t necessarily care for this “style” of drumming, Dude brings it and that is undeniable. As far as your “keeping time” comment, say that about Neal Peart or Danny Carey and see how their band mates react.

[@MikeFuryMusic]

I can't wait to see these guys at the Rainbow on Labor Day Weekend.

[@joegampa8540]

Outstanding video

[@grimdrum2396]

Very eye catching and he never looses the back beat. Bravo!

[@salookie8000]

God Bless America 🙏🙏🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🔥🔥🔥

[@Paul-mu9ng]

I met Zoltan at a TX rally in Somerville, TX about 12 yrs ago or so. It was cool to see my old Pearl kit set up in front of his back line show kit. This dude constantly works on his technique. Zoltan is my number one favotite rock drummer performer. I watch a lot of his vids. I try to take a lot of that energy into my performance.

[@ryanmurray6814]

Haven't got to see him play with Slaughter, but I did get to see him play with Vince Neil a couple years ago at Rocklahoma. Entertaining to say the least. He does it all the time, but he had the Animal head on for half the set.

[@Malama_Ki]

As a young and up and coming drummer I met him when he came through my area with Lois Lane in the late 80’s. I paid him a compliment and he was the rudest, most condescending, pos I’ve ever met in the music industry. I literally wouldn’t piss on him if he was on fire. Hey Zoltan, digest excrement and cease to exist.

[@johnwallace7694]

I felt i was hyper active bro you rock , drummers are programmed different!

[@larryking4819]

I'm also a drummer I think this guy is totally fantastic. Entertainment at it is best.

[@mariotaddeojr]

ZOLTAN!!! Legend. Anyone complaining needs to kick tires cause this dude is half the reason these 80s guys can still tour and have it not be a snore fest.

[@hotlanta35]

Bro, twirling sticks is cool and all but he plays things that totally do not make the song sound good.. he bashes the ride , hi hat and crash on almost every hit where it’s not keeping with what the song is about.

[@prostreetgsxr]

I have always loved this band and by the way the drummer is crazy 😂😂😂

[@ProTrump1966]

Its almost 6 Am and Im just getting started 2024 November 24th 2024 , My B Day 🤣😂😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🥁🥁🥁

How does this guy not drive his sticks right through the drums...

Loved Zoltan from when I first saw him with Vince Neil. I could watch this all day. May I ask where you find your drum tech gigs? Looking to find a place to start out

[@iamDavidLynam]

Mark Nichols man honestly I’m more of a drummer than a drum tech. I think being a drummer makes you a good drum tech. I’ve just lucked out on the few tech gig I’ve gotten. Met Z from doing a couple of shows with him in my band Lynam.

[@iamDavidLynam]

Mark Nichols the Steven Adler gig I got bc my singer got the gig singing for him and he and I are ride or die so where he goes I got.

[@mattg7946]

David Lynam oh wow good to know my man thanks so much. I’m a drummer of 9 years..took lessons off a guy named Chad Szeliga who is a local. Hopefully I find some place to start! Thanks dude

He's doing this to give the crowd a form of visual excitement so all you killjoys relax

[@ninjamilbrecht9239]

great

[@armyguy872008]

While entertaining, it does distract from the band as a whole. Kind of like Juan Croucier from RATT. But each to their own, he is paid for the gig and god bless him.

[@roygossjr]

Dan Anderson it ONLY distracts from the band because it’s totally on him from our view. I’m pretty sure the crowd FUCKING LOVED IT ALL!

[@daddyyotv3832]

Man he's entertaining. What's the drummer name?

[@TotalSinging]

say what you want about the over the top playing - but his meter is SOLID.

[@MrMralexzilla]

how you do that?
