Thrift Store Drumming Challenge - David Raouf

[@rdavidr]

Yo, no joke I thought that dude was carrying a kid in that bag at 0:55 😯

[@josegarza7428]

Lmao Same

[@russ6541]

Oh dang

[@maccheeselover4974]

rdavidr same I was looking through the comments trying to find this exact comment

[@melodicbeats1758]

Me too 😂😂😂😂

[@MiguelOliveira-mr4dv]

Its not a kid, its just a jacket and a cap xD

[@adamalexanderray]

The abacus had me in stitches. Drummers already get teased enough as it is, pulling that out at a gig would be hilarious.

[@DrummerGrrrl]

We're geniuses. But no one ever understands. Especially not lead guitarists!

[@funkdrummer]

these are items to be pulled out for studio recordings, IMHO

[@benmikell1313]

No one: rdavidr: "Who woulda thought a dog bowl on a floor tom taped to a door handle plate would sound like that?"

[@rdavidr]

😂

[@dorkster3577]

rdavidr thats a brand new sentence right there

[@garrettanderson2452]

That’s just insane

[@joshbuckwalter3293]

The homie made it on drumeo! Congrats dave

[@dafi723]

I see RdavidR I press like!

[@willichou5862]

Saame!

[@basi-vega35]

Lololol if I was an employee there, I would be like,"WTF is that guy doing?"

[@Valhalen716]

Basi C-Vega lol Maybe they’re used to it by now!

[@davidmcaninch4714]

I never thought that I would see you on Drumeo

[@BoogieWoogieCat]

David has one of the most interesting and unique drum related youtube channels ever.

[@JonneDrums]

Is there white lithium grease involved? Else i won’t approve

[@rdavidr]

Thats coming later ;)

[@jermss_]

🤣🤣

[@derreckossas4951]

Gotta love dave🥁

[@whocares9053]

10:26 - when you select a League of Legends Character and hit confirm

[@Hennu_TRM]

I have often thought that drumming is just hitting stuff with sticks and it shouldn't be so complicated and expensive... I think you really captured that.

[@serpentstudios7768]

You've made it, breathtaking move David!

[@magrildz]

What I like about rdavidr is how he made me change the way I saw drums and drumming. He kinda brought my diy side back and I completely revolutionized the way I play and understand my drums.

[@DavidOakesMusic]

Those bowls would sound good with some *_PLATE_* reverb on...

[@mrmisfit635]

Haha you got it!

[@red007lp]

Congrats David on making it to Drumeo! Be proud about yourself and keep up the good work!

[@joemo1033]

0:44 Make shirts that say "What cool is that?" Then the image is a tee shirt on a piano.

[@joshmillerdrum9249]

This is by far my favorite drumeo vid yet. Love Dave's stuff.

[@BLTspace]

Love it. David is great. From dumpster diving to refinishing to ebay hunting etc. His channel is a literal drum workshop. It's cool you guys got him in here seriously.

[@russbradshawmusic]

It's cool to see so much personality out of David. You don't see that much of his personality in his own videos although they are still great videos.

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

1:50 a little pricey... haha. Enjoyed it David!

[@rdavidr]

Thanks man!

[@josteinv.jordet257]

I have never seen him on this good cam quality! Great! Now i can study his beard!

[@mrmisfit635]

What an awesome beard

[@josteinv.jordet257]

@@mrmisfit635 yeah, thats what i thought too, happy new year🥳

[@mrmisfit635]

@@josteinv.jordet257 Happy New Year😃✌

[@BSDrumming]

This is the most ridiculous drumeo I've seen LOL.. and I thoroughly enjoyed it!

[@JulianFernandez]

RdavidR. Coolest YT personality of 2019. Hands down.

[@midgarr30]

Great video. It’s a lot of fun experimenting. Here are a few I’ve tried that sound great (imo): -Aluminum water bottles (opened, several lined up glued to a wood board) -Cookie tin with a little foam taped to the inside -An iPhone/smartphone box (original packaging), filled with dried beans or legos -PVC piping (add an elbow or two and diameter adapters for larger sizes) -Lid to a small charcoal bbq (12-14”)

[@colh.3779]

13:10 my mind went straight to the Paiste Rude cymbal lineup 😂 Worth about the same in my books

[@simonepedata2379]

david be like: oh look oxygen that might sound lit 🔥

[@devinbuchhorn]

What the hell is going on with this drum mix??

[@donsak111]

Phase issue on the bass drum mics? Sounds awkward

[@andrewgoulson]

Kick wayyyy too loud

[@etz_oren]

ra-oof

[@TonyMacaroni69_]

Oof

[@jdogmcnasty1980]

Zildjian has a ZilBell for like $100....or get a $3 bowl 👍🏻

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

or cut out the bell of a cracked cymbal, or cheap ride.

[@jakeseitz]

It’ll be a ZilBowl

[@djentlover]

Only difference, the bowl will sound better

[@SignatureDrum]

I been doing this for years! So awesome to see David on here (congrats!) spreading the idea of unique creative sounds from the thrift! :)

[@cagilundar]

Wow, I've got the same abacus, I've never thought I could use it as shaker. I'll start to use it as soon as I learn to count to 100. Cool video! My man rdavidr is a very good drummer, listener and an absolutely high skilled crafter.

[@thijs199]

Yeah, this is cool, I'm going to look for stuff to hit on. Bowls, handles, females.

[@RADSQUID123]

Hey dude, watch your mouth. What did bowls or handles ever do to you?

[@nickferrence8593]

Awesome video Dave. You're always surprising everyone with cool new inexpensive sounds. Cheers

[@leontroha1648]

11:04 doin' some 360's

[@Casquillo8520]

Boy is in da House! 🔥

[@mrmisfit635]

David, you have the courage to do what i won't!

[@ELIAT]

i love videos like this!!! nice Drumeo!! and having david on is perfect!!

[@WarrenPostma]

I saw the title and thought, he's gonna get a kids drum kit discarded at the Salvation Army and play it. This was actually even better.

[@rubenspoolder3567]

I am actually genuinely proud that David is on Drumeo! You go, man!

[@tambourini]

Thanks! I'm still a beginner & without a proper kit! This gives me ideas... Loving the 'accident' with the bowl bouncing around on the tom!

[@d.ar_i.o]

rdavidr, the only person on this earth who would exchange the best cymbals in the world for some 3$ metal bowls 😂

[@RorRiiZzLE]

That was definitely Jared with the dad “incredibowl” joke.

[@hewystudio7832]

That last one he played reminds me of these drumsticks I had back in the day that were ribbed for your pleasure. I’d play it the same way on the rims, pretty cool.

[@Valhalen716]

I love rDavidr: his channel has taught me so much about tuning, maintenance, and being creative with your kit!

[@ZFG1467]

Love you Dave, this is hands down the spiciest video in drumeo

[@valeriolapiana6643]

Can't get over the abacus groove ahah so cool!

[@adamberry6637]

I love how this turned more into a prop comedy sketch. Love rDavidr! Fellow RVA!

[@xandermijares342]

Love this David! So creative!

[@Psymon1471]

This makes me think of Gene Hoglan playing in Death with the propeller 'splash'

[@Hubson55]

that "scraper beat" sounds like a cartoon character sneaking up 🤣

[@jakeseitz]

Those have got to be the driest crashes I’ve ever heard 😂

[@jimmygriswold9258]

Rdavidr is always thinking outside the box!

[@sleepycat1878]

I have been waiting for this day all my life! rdavidr at Drumeo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@patdeniston3697]

You definitely are crafty Ruined my shopping now Gonna take forever

[@lordhammerwind]

Props on adding reverb to the abacus/bowl setup!

[@snackarytaylor]

that snare sounds absolutely amazing.

[@robertsmith8217]

Best. Drumdude. Ever.

[@makidavid1503]

that gator on a kick pedal or highhat stand floppin around might sound sick

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

metal pot lids, metal and glass bowls, metal cans and circular saw blades usually have nice sounds

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

in fact, i'm going to add a saw blade to the kit tomorrow-- eureka!

[@mightyV444]

"One of them football gongs", LOL! :-))

[@jdiaz4877]

This is so cringe I LOVE IT!🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@swccbakersfieldca2076]

Nice man moving on up. You have earned it David

[@williamrooke3213]

RDavidR is by far my favorite youtube drum guy

[@enzodebredo]

This is the year of’ crazy sounds’ out of a drum set...nice!

[@micahwinters7021]

David, you’re my hero!

[@StreetsOfVancouverChannel]

The bowls sound FAB!

[@chrisphillips554]

Love Dave. Awesome vid

[@chrisclark7644]

Ah, David. Its so good to see you on drumeo. You're moving on up, kid.

[@N.Willems]

David Raouf on Drumeo wow nice :)

[@pitchfolkmedia916]

Seeing RDavidR everywhere now! Is he playing drums for Marcus King Band now too?

[@TheFinalGamerRN]

I wasn't expecting this on Drumeo but woow 8:18 sounded great!!

[@jermss_]

David is the man! such great content

[@erikbarrett85]

The bowl groove was honestly cool

[@craigbrowning9448]

Some older Metal Ice Trays (from a household Freezer) have a "Link" Divider insert that makes a good "Scratcher" sound.

[@andrewwarrendrums8969]

Awesome video!!

[@acoolbandname3726]

8:08 MY NAME IS MUD

[@AhmadIlyas1994]

YES you made it dav!

[@TonyMacaroni69_]

Finally!

[@andrewgoulson]

The only thing that MIGHT have worked was the door handle plate. That had a cool vibe

[@luvmedrums4057]

Rdavidr love you bro!

[@ForestRainMedia]

Duct tapes the literal trash stack to the dog bowl while wearing a flannel jacket. Are you sure this isn't The Red Green Show?

[@craigbrowning9448]

I've acquired Gretsch, Slingerland and Rogers tidbits at Thrift Stores and Flea Markets.

[@KristianNowak]

0:45 NO WAY THAT VALUE VILLAGE IS IN ABBOTSFORD IN CANADA I GO THERE A LOT!!!!

[@davormaplenik2776]

Don't show this video to Jared, he'll have a heart attack watching David scraping his drums

[@e-tube3155]

Who else came here from "$10 thrift store snare"

[@benevolentsun]

Love this guy!

[@andreasbreitwieser1449]

this episode made me so hard laughing........ thanx David!!

[@Philipp.of.Swabia]

You could attach the Abakus to the hihat as awsome kind of shaker. 🧮

[@blvckno_1]

CONGRATS DAVE!!!!!!!

[@tanksandturtles1131]

Bruh you god my boi David. Epic. 😎

[@DrummerGrrrl]

David, I bet a wok would sound bad ass! Or a cookie sheet that you hammered a bit like a cymbal?

[@victorneckar7743]

Very cool, thx👍🏻

[@7yph0onXno0hpy7]

Should've used that alligator as a stick and whap some stuff with it LOL

[@MistrBiggles]

I think Sabian is working on a new line of dog bowls now

[@TsunamiBeefPies]

Put some water in those dog bowls, find a way to let them ring, and move the water around--you've got a budget store water gong!

[@Clay_Scar]

Awesome vid!

[@colesisler582]

Reminds me of Chad Butler of Switchfoot incorporating things in his garage such as a ladder on the Vice Verses album.

[@jfragale03]

Bout time we got David on Drumeo

[@ThePrateekPradhan]

Holy smokes! Rdavidr at drumeo ! Super!!!!!

[@garrykingmusic]

Great for industrial loops
