The fact those drums survive one show without Pau completely destroying them as hard as she goes.... Carlos the drum tech deserves a raise...

[@SirCamsmorethanalot]

What a beautiful and naturally honest soul of creativity!!!!! Moves my heart as do all these Warning creations! Massive jump in rock history!

[@oxigenarian9763]

As well as being a master drummer, she is (by far) one of the most entertaining percussionists to watch when she performs!

[@ByulsDisciple]

Just love these women - so energetic, creative and with beautiful spirits! So glad they've arrived to boost the soul of our world and provide incredible music into the bargain!

Paulina is a supreme talent. The story of the rise of these three sisters is inspiring.

[@MariaElenaJimenez-jy1je]

Paulina es un prodigio.

[@bjwnashe5589]

In addition to her musical talent, Pau is also super smart. Her intellect is formidable.

[@pablosartor6715]

Paulina is an awesome drummer, singer, songwriter and Person!! Viva The Warning!! ⚡⚡⚡

[@gmantw]

That was great! Pau isn't kidding when she says she is a hard hitter. Sheesh, poor kit takes a beating.

[@darinqDPA]

Yes hard hitter is a understatement 🥁🔥

[@9983sp]

Hulk Smash.

[@philguitfiddle]

That's what I enjoy the most when I see her play. My favorite drummer this year.

[@JoshuaBennettMusic]

Someone far cleverer than myself once observed, "Pau doesn't so much *play* the drums as beat them into submission." 😆🤘

[@corneliuscrewe677]

She was a hard hitter when she was what, 12 when they did the Enter Sandman cover? She’s a force of nature. Love her drumming.

[@nukchuu1]

Always amazes me how well spoken and smart she is. I said in a couple IG streams she needed to do a updated rig rundown, so cool seeing everything she uses and how passionate she speaks about her kit. Mexican proverb.. The house does not rest upon the ground.. but upon a woman... well the house of ROCk rest upon these talented young ladies! Numberly_Garfs 🤘🏾⚡

[@billgoodwin8742]

Pau saying that she hits the drums hard is an understatement.

[@axelhopfinger533]

She's a fierce and merciless taskmistress of drums!

[@stephencrider8076]

Ain't that the truth. Small but mighty.

[@Jack-q8h6u]

Yup, she may be small but I'm sure she has a mean uppercut 🤪

[@yeticatcher]

That's our Paulina. Great drummer, great songwriter and a smart, talented, humble human being. Thanks DTB for brining us this series on The Warning!

[@DadQuixote7]

Pau is a rock and roll legend in the making. The writer and composer of most of The Warning songs. Awesome drummer and awesome singer. She has an infectious enthusiasm and its obvious she has so much passion for the drums. She is so confident. I can honestly say i look up to her.

[@foxtrot4i454]

I have seen them live 25 times now.

[@reactionsaccount3955]

The last missing part to complete the holy triumvirate. 😀 Best live band I have seen in decades. Love her, because she is a very musical drummer, can sing lead while drumming, has an amazing stage presence and she hits the drums like they owe her some serious money.

[@olipostulart8949]

The voice! The voice!

[@Robertsmith-dy3sh]

I am so happy you did this along with the rundowns with Ale and Dany! Paulina is a world class drummer, singer and song writer and also a very sweet and kind person. Thank you for posting this!

[@roywall8169]

Pau is my musical hero! Not only is she a world class drummer, but she composes, writes and sings in most every song the band plays. I first discovered her in 2018 when I saw her cover of another artist’s song. In the video she was 10 years old. I was so impressed that I looked her up, and discovered she had a band with her sisters. Haven’t stopped listening to them since that day. TWA for life!

[@thh383]

the three sisters are my musical heroes!!

[@Pink_Nebula-k1r]

she has a unique touch, there's a lot of drummers in the world, every pro drummer can play fast, can play wild, but very few can do or just don't do what she does, that's acting, being sexy and badass while playing and singing at the same time

[@Alexanderson-wfh]

6 years for you - 6 days for me, and wow what a ride. She speaks very confidently, with slick and confident use of English . Go girl, the world is yours for the taking 🤩

[@peterwaterford9482]

The definitive example of Paulina's crowd interaction: "Get your hands up, New Hampshire! I broke my drum kit for you!" after putting a hole in her bass skin a few songs into the set and playing the rest of the show with her left foot on the left pedal.

[@randymarple9830]

I was there too. She really meant it too!! lol

[@lootier3203]

Eso pierna!!

[@robertkrawitz8237]

​@@randymarple9830You really don't want to disobey her orders. She would notice and write a song about you.

[@pedrometal1597]

Esooooo piernaaaaa

[@randymarple9830]

Hey.....I was clapping my ass off!!!!! I may be crazy, but I'm not stupid!!@@robertkrawitz8237

[@trfmusic902]

Pau is an amazing drummer

[@justinatest9456]

One of the most standout drummers of all time really. No showboating nonsense, just power and style. An amazing singer, and the primary writer and composer of the band's songs. There's very few drummers who check all the boxes she does. The fact that she doesn't have full endorsement offers coming from every drum company is shocking to me.

[@Chuckles..]

Pau plays drums, piano, has an incredible voice, creates music and lyrics, is very likable, and doesn't get nearly as upset as Ale when Dany wins at Mario Kart.

[@krash66]

Pau and her sisters may be small in stature, but they are MONSTERS on stage! The only thing bigger than their sound is their hearts. They are the nicest young ladies you could ever meet and their hard work and immense talent will have then at the top of rock music very soon!

[@StrdFrgman]

She’s like a pilot in the cockpit . Efficiency in setup, performance, writing. Musical genius ⚡️❤

[@distrustfulmonkey2832]

All 3 of the sisters are so modest and chill in interviews and then they pick up their instruments and it's instant beast mode from all of them. Phenomenally talented family and just great songs.

[@sb859]

5:09 Everything you need to know about this band, their staff, and parents. They are world-touring ROCKSTARS but she wants to make sure they are not bothering other bands during their set-up. Also, props to Carlos, Lalo, Rudy, the whole staff. \^^/

[@jamessummerlin9516]

Excellent rundown. Pau is such a professional, they all are. Great job.

[@allancustodio2274]

😊Paulina Pau Pau my favorite percussionist. One of my all time favorite rockers. Bakers, lecturers, teachers, singers, composers, lyricists, etc. The kit sounds great Very enjoyable to watch and hear her play😊

[@nico3641]

Yay for Carlos and The Warning!

[@iggy8702]

This was shot at the Bottom Lounge in Chicago. My daughter and I attended this show later that night. My wife and I had driven down to Indianapolis to see them on Thursday. The next day, Friday, we drove back to Chicago and decided to stop by Wrigley Field for the Cubs game. During the game, Pau posted on Instagram that they were at the game, thus the T-shirt she is wearing. They were on the other side of the stadium, I kinda wish I had gone looking for them. This show was on Saturday. So glad I got to see them in a couple of small venues.

[@rexwave4624]

Smaller venues for me, too. 300, 2000 and 600. But, we may never pass this way again. They may be at the local arena or shed next time.

[@kenhernandez8128]

Great shirt

[@foxtrot4i454]

I was at Bottom Lounge. It was my 25th show. I saw them in Cincinnati, Detroit, and Indianapolis; 4 shows in 5 days.

[@adamtrombino106]

I was at both Bottom Lounge shows, yr to yr, and had no idea this was shot there! I know Pay hits hard, and though she doesn't care for the name, she'll always be the (drum) shredder to me ;)

[@Jamvan001]

That would have been weird as shit, literal stalker behaviour.

[@gusharris-reid3419]

Paulina is a magnificent drummer/composer - I love her 🤩❤💥⚡

[@FrankyPi]

Singer as well

[@leokimvideo]

Once Pau added that cowbell she elevater herself to being one of the top drummers in rock. This young lady is one of the best singer / drummers in rock. She's dynamic, exciting and a explosive hard hitter drummer. Definitely a rock drummer to watch as she climbs up the ranks of great drummers.

[@bendavid84]

I got a fever, and the only perscription is more cowbell.

[@svenolsen8184]

For some reason I just got the urge for some SNL. And I think I could've used a little more cowbell.

[@chandraabudiman]

@akatzukianlun4033 Chika from Hanabie?

[@Aussie2006]

So talented and carismatic ❤

[@thomasmalatesta7331]

She's got WAY more than a tiny fraction. You can argue who is the best drummer all day long but diminishing Paulina's skills to make your case is ridiculous. @akatzukianlun4033

[@mt4design2]

Awesome! Soon to turn 22 in February, she’s been playing since she was 6. Composer, lyricist, singer, songwriter, musician. Prolific.

[@boxychubbo6922]

She's a great fucking drummer. Such a heavy groove. Always in the pocket. Always pushing the beat when necessary. Perfect rock drummer. Speed. Creativity. Balls. Massive stage presence. She has it all. Oh yeah... elite vocalist and composer. Viva La Warning!

[@davekimball3610]

Feels like I've been waiting months for this final installment of The Warning's gear. Great Christmas present.

[@Scott_Diverscott]

Pau is an incredible drummer. Great to see her kit.

[@justinatest9456]

What an amzing video of an amazing talent. She'll be an inspiration to drummers - and all artists really - male and female, young and old - for generations to come. DW - give Pau a full endorsement before somebody else does, you fools!

[@robertor4531]

Pau, ¡es una baterista sensacional! Pero sobre todo, muy profesional.

[@rhugh02]

I Love her playing style, great talent. The Warning is my new favorite live band.

[@KeithM35]

She is such a pro :)

[@marcogutierrez437]

Paulina is not joking when she says that she hits very hard, I have already seen break her drum set like twice.

[@ooinvsaoo]

PAULINA!! The gangs all here now 😍😍

[@stevenmyers6291]

I can't say enough good stuff about Pau and The Warning! The future of Rock is NOW!

[@dirtydingus5465]

Jesus! What a beautiful soul! Great energy and vibe she gives..even through the “inter- world”

[@perezfecto]

Solid walk through Paulina's gear, not just the drumkit but the entire set. She's so energetic which you can tell by the way she talks. If you haven't seen her on stage yet, you definitely should. She might be 5 ft tall but Pau is a beast on drums.

[@scottakam]

Seen The Warning several times and they are really good. I love the way Pau plays the Toms. Very unique.

[@darkjedi77]

Why in the world Has DW Drums not sponsored her yet ? She is one of the best drummers today.

[@Fuel2Fireband]

As a musician myself Pau is not only a really drummer but she is a really good singer too. She is such a great and humble musician.

[@MrSudeepdas]

In her youth she was an explosive shredder often drawing comparison with Keith Moon. Now, as a mature 21 year old, Paulina Villarreal is a subtle, intelligent musician who is peerless in writing drum patterns & choosing drum tones that highlight a song. The song is paramount. Not showy instrumentation. Its hard to believe that someone who can be a beast behind her kit, breaking drum sticks & damaging her kick drum, can also break down in front of 8000 fans while pouring out her soul on piano singing those poignantly dark ballads she has composed. Singer, drummer, composer, songwriter, an explosive frontwoman when released from her kit Pau is a multi-talented multi-tasking musical genius. She could have won literary awards by publishing her metaphorical poetry that deliver contextual insightful messages about today's society. Her lyrics are Dylan-esque in profundity & second only to Roger Waters in darkness.

[@DadQuixote7]

Well said!!🤟🤟🤟

[@etinterrapax2]

Amen. 👍⚡⚠️🥁🎤💥

[@Ruisu-San]

VOTE FOR PAULINA! Drumeo Awards 2023.

[@PaulGosselink-dt7gg]

Pau is the reason why I discovered The Warning. She is a extraordinary rock drummer. Hope to see you in Haarlem (NL) in april.

[@SkittleKicksPlays]

Pau is a helluv a drummer. She hopefully will be featured in Modern Drummer, and maybe do some clinics when the band has time off. I love the fact that she's named her kit marshmallow. That is so Pau!!! If you know her personality she loves cooking and baking. ⚡⚡⚡🤘🤘🤘

[@p4our587]

Bon-bon.

[@ericgaudet5488]

I was looking forward to seeing what drums Paulina uses. Very cool video. From this one it sounds like the Drummer of the croup in this case THE WARNING is like a QB in football and leads the team .

[@ankhor9252]

Drumming isn't just about mechanical intensity, but musical artistry. Pau has both!

[@randymarple9830]

Musical drummers are a rare breed.

[@louiebee6745]

Yep there are drummers, and then there are musicians who play drums.

[@cncs2806]

She's not joking when she says she hits hard! 😂One of the most talented musicians in the world: Great songwriter, singer, drummer, pianist and frontwoman (when she's not behind the kit!) 🇲🇽 ¡Viva The Warning! 🇲🇽

[@DavidRodriguez-mp9nh]

The trifecta of rig rundowns is complete. What a joy to listen to the powerful time keeper and main writer/lyricist of the Warning. Pau, like her sisters, is a master of her instrument at a young age. She also hits those drums like a heavyweight champ. Her discriptions of the rig are more than just surface answers. The computer was my biggest question and it got answered. Thank you for this! The 3 rock n roll hurricanes wow the fans worldwide! Long live rock n roll!!

[@mblund8711]

Majors kudos to Digital Tour Bus for shining a spotlight on all 3 of these amazingly talented ladies from The Warning. Truly shows just how professional and dedicated they are to their craft and music.

[@johnnypalermo4620]

Her enthusiasm is infectious - I know nothing about drums but she had me hooked. In fact all the girls in the band are so effortlessly engaging in describing their instruments and equipment that you can’t help but be hooked 😃👍 They are very special and talented ladies and The Warning are by far the best band on this planet ! 😎🙌🎸

[@dantepineda2199]

Cantante, baterista, autora de la mayoria de sus canciones es un Crack .......!!!!!!❤❤❤❤

[@ferossan]

She is amazing, she has a promising future.

[@RandyTWA]

Pau is being modest. She won’t tell you that she is one of the best drummers out there today. She also won’t tell you that she sings lead on several tracks while drumming and harmonies on the rest. Or that she is the main song writer for the band. It’s said that most female drummers play like they’re petting a puppy. Pau plays like she’s beating the guy who stole her puppy!

[@RandyTWA]

Lest I forget, she’s also a classically trained pianist who occasionally plays keys on stage. When she does, magic happens!

[@luc45k]

"Pau plays like she’s beating the guy who stole her puppy!" LOL

[@captainjefferies9047]

Well she isn't a liar. That's why she isn't saying that.

Thanks for the video... Paulina is the best female drummer imo.

[@9983sp]

Faith Powell, Roxy Petrucci, and Brook Colucci are good as well.

[@andreaspedersen3952]

Best singing for sure.... Just in Japan alone there is a lot of great drummers. Akane Hirose (Band-maid), Haruna (Lovebites), Tamu Murata (Nemophila) and especially her friend Senri Kawaguchi who might be the very best. Then there is Yoyoka, who at 11 became the youngest to be ranked among the 500 best by DrummerWorld.

[@braack4859]

@@andreaspedersen3952 yeah but it's metal isn't it. I bet Pau would be able to do the same with a bit training, natural talent

[@polyphonicgroove]

Paulina is an amazing drummer. I've seen them live several times and her tom work is really something to see, very impressive. Solid, hard hitting drummer....yet very musical parts. One of my favorites to watch/hear.

[@Alfwin]

Recently I saw a post online asking, "who's the most lively/energetic musician you know of?", and I immediately thought of Paulina. She's one of the most impressive artists out there, and her energy when she performs is unmatched! "Hard hitter" is one hell of an understatement!

[@darrinashby9019]

Great video. I knew she set up the midi but I did not know how she clicked through. I never seen her reach over to do it with her hands. Now I know.

[@gil9417]

I just got my electronic drums yesterday, my first set of drums and I'm 67 years old! Having a great time learning and thank you for the rig run down! You guys sound great! I'm old but I know good music when I hear it! I started playing Guitar when I was 9 (1966).

[@terryandrews7271]

I fell in love with her when she was Playiing Miley Cyrus best of both worlds you could hardly see her over the drum kit. She is such a great person And a wonderful human being, I love her even more. And that's not even mentioning the fact that she is the greatest drummer ever born, When she's really tearing the drums up if you've ever noticed on the right side she also hits the The symbols backwards sometimes, She is so flexible. Haven't heard anything about her hip popping out of joint I guess they fixed that I'm so happy I love you Paulina, Just like you were my own grandchild, I know that sounds mushy but I'm getting old I'm just 71 going on 72 so forgive me❤❤❤

Pau has said in the past that the cymbals are her favorite part of a drum kit, so it was cool to see her explain what each one was and how she utilizes them. She is the best multitasker that I've ever seen or met and she's also very knowledgeable about all kinds of music, she's an amazing talent and person just like her sisters. Thank you for doing episodes with all 3 of them cuz The Warning wouldn't be The Warning without all of them.
