Baard Kolstad plays drums @ Karl Johan 02.07.11

[@watch-Abricot_Ultime]

The fact he's playing with Leprous now makes me happy.

[@frostnettenes]

In case nobody has noticed, the guy on the bicycle? That's Bård "Faust" Eithun, original drummer from Emperor. :)

[@13496625]

+Thomas Terwiske kinda creepy

[@nestorgonzalez]

+Thomas Terwiske can we verify this? we barely can see his face

[@bryanbrown4488]

+Thomas Terwiske if that is that's pretty fucking awesome

[@frostnettenes]

It is him- trust me. It is easy to recognize someone you know, standing in a place you know, isn't it? This is on Karl Johans Gate in Oslo, so it is not uncommon to see people there. Enjoy the video. :)

[@bryanbrown4488]

that's awesome

[@4espritdrummer]

You sir, have a great career ahead of you! God I wish I could play like that!

[@BlueEyedFiend88]

This comment aged perfectly :)

[@toprak3479]

Oracle levels of prediction

[@blerp6675]

10 years holy shit lol

[@anthiondel]

And now he's playing in Leprous... What a monster

[@erikkhresna]

Thank you for your info of the band, really monster drummer

[@suma5939]

@@erikkhresna and probably the best band in the world now that Perfect Beings have split and Opeth went to shit :P

[@blerp6675]

Ty flor showing me those bands! Sad they didnt continue!​@suma5939

[@walters147]

To think this was Baard 11 years ago is nuts. In this vid he sounds like he’s already had 10 years behind the kit, all them rudiments, clean fills and complex rhythms take a lot of time to build up naturally. Glad he has a career doing it.

[@braindump1446]

Without even thinking I applauded that from behind my computer screen. What the hell!!!!

[@blerp6675]

Sick to live in an era where we can see these sessions

[@robs5593]

Seeing this guy go from raw Dream Theater covers in 2008 (which takes balls at any age, and I think he looked about 10), to this, to The Sky is Red... his progress and intensity has been a joy to experience.

[@vadertjetijd]

Awesome! Got blown away by this talented drummer. and half of the city center too..

[@Kroepoek82]

Played on my brithday, nice. Very happy to have heard him play live several times. Last time in Hedon-Zwolle, Netherlands, 2-nov-2019. Amazing concert of Leprous with their new album "pitfalls", and their encore "mirage" + "the sky is red" is a drum peformance unparalelled by his peers.

[@Aboreddude]

I can watch this all day!

[@fastfiddler1625]

I just love how many talented musicians lose complete control over their facial expressions when they play. So good. And the drumming.

[@kammoblammo]

02:41 - 02:51 is ten seconds of world class drumming. Awesome break.

[@shaunaklonandkar9226]

Baard kolstad’s drum solos r the Best drum solos ever

[@stephenhughes5156]

God only knows how many hours this kid had put in by that point. Gotta admire his dedication. Now he is a drummer for one of the best bands around, and honestly I think he might the best drummer I’ve ever seen.

[@MrGeduhn]

That´s a great job and thanks to you for filming it.

[@SweetzerMaggot]

guys like you are rares, congratulation for this song

[@SaemHoppenstedt]

Even back then he made it look so effortless. His skills are just sick, even more so today! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@iiitzchriz]

Excellent.. excellent... excellent.!! True talent! Gifted. Don't let anyone tell you other wise. This video will take you places!!!!

[@slcncr]

One of the best Drummers i have ever seen . AWESOME !

[@Keimo452]

just amazing! as a drummer i can say this.

[@Paulelele]

True talent and passion here! Doesn't need to be on a stage at a sold out concert, he plays on the streets where everyone can enjoy his talent : )

[@joaobirrento]

Leprous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good Luck Baard. You are awesome! Great Show last night in Lisbon! I'm the annoying fan ahahahah xD

[@plombir18]

I saw him last year when I visited Oslo as a tourist. he's great!

[@razorburn645]

That was awesome! Good luck from Canada!

[@jackjames7806]

Still best street drum video, performance, on KZbin

[@strictlysoundz]

Respect from Holland!!

[@BethHamon]

Boys and girls, THIS is why you practice your rudiments and work with a metronome every freakin' day. Solid time, clean fills, amazing stick control. Beautiful.

[@Muppio]

I love it at the end when he basicly goes "I'm going to hit everything at once!".

[@JonteIRL]

How can so many just go by without checking his awesome drumming?

[@julianfarias9335]

Baard Kolstad respect from ARGENTINA

[@Mutty5united]

@dvst8ive - Thanks for that. The seamless use of double base makes his skills seem even more insane.

[@bpcrockett]

Wow! He can keep his time almost as well as the New Aquaracer 300M. What an incredible watch! I want to get one right now, especially since the client insisted on not allowing the crew to zoom in past their product shot and name for any part of the 7:30 minute video!

[@ittelgimaf]

5 dislikes?! Who on earth actually disliked this video, this is a drummer with mad skillz!

[@lewismanners3118]

His style and groove is heavy with Johnny Rabb's style of playing.

[@neontetsuo]

The guy on bicycle isn't too shabby street artist himself. I wonder how many hours did it took to master that hypersleep pose?

[@PsykeShow]

Hahah the funny part is that he's also a drummer - The original drummer for Emperor, that is. Faust.
