Drummer Thomas Pridgen Breaks Down Drumming Scenes from Movies | GQ - Zábava
“Musicians are perfectionist, and they don’t even know what they like.” that is spot on! Well said
I kinda feel like he was talking about Omar there hehe.
But at the same time with all other art forms out here that the same rules apply, that we just got to do it. I'm working on a scrip and I'm finally understanding the process. Basically write, then edit. I see music being the same way even if after both projects are finished and released to the public, to the creator (artist) will never be finished.
@@tristanrcox I was gonna say this statement by thomas could be applied in any facet of art lol. Artists are finicky fickle little indecisive people
Then there's me who listens to my own songs on repeat :|
@@anuvette i think we can all agree with you on that part. I love me The Used songs, one in particular is Moon-Dream. I just repeat that with the phone on highest volume, hoping it doesn't blast out my speakers 😆
His perspective on the scenes is unique. He doesn't really try to show the "faults" of the acting in the scene. Instead, he talks about real music scenarios and life experiences. Excellent take.
Its fun pretending like I know whats up after being in a highschool orchestra
Yea it's cool. I totally would've been over-analyzing technique n stuff.
Was gonna like the comment but don't want to ruin the 666
Yeah duh. He's not an acting coach.
@@AllTheArtsy Neither are any of the other people who do these breakdowns but they still critique the inaccuracies or praise the accuracies. These videos aren't about the acting.
"I played with Snoop Dogg and felt like getting hazed."
No, that's a different kind of haze.
That lemon haze my guy
4/20 haze
😂
*blazed
Yea purple haze lmao
That was the point of the whiplash scene. He's asking him to do impossible tasks. Extreme hazing and abuse for sure.
For real. Some “teachers” are like that to push their students past their absolute breaking points. Think of military or old school chefs like Gordon, they break you down in the hopes that you’ll come out a stone cold machine. Much would’ve rather an analysis on his playing, rather than if jazz conductors are like that irl
@@lunch7213 in the case of Gordon Ramsey though he yells at chefs that come in boasting about their prowess because of you’re talking like a big boss you should cook like one. But with the lunch ladies and grocery store workers and little kids he has more patience. I know this doesn’t have much of anything to do with the original point I just wanted to throw this in.
@David Asare It's just food though, just because someone is overconfident doesn't mean they deserve to be verbally abused and demeaned
We all learn differently. If my teacher got at me like that I would leave asap because that doesnt get me anywhere. I know others would probably just push through it.
@@queenofdirt9082 if it’s not cooked or stored properly you could poison or worst case scenario kill people. If you’re in the business there are fundamental things you should know in training/education but it’s frustrating when time and time again people act like theyre all that when theyre really clueless about the simplest things.
Thomas: "You can start a drum solo really quiet..."
Also Thomas: *BANG BANG BOOM BOOM BOOM*
You think you are funny. You aren't.
Love your stuff bro
@@Centerpieceofmind im sure you live a sad life.
Jon is awesome
@@Ryui125 i don't and he's not.
@@Centerpieceofmind the guy has a lot of subs because they find him funny and he made people happy.
You on the other hand spread negativity and probably havent done anything significant with your sad pathetic life.
I've come to realise that I could listen to ANY of these experts give the inside track on ANY subject because their enthusiasm just draws you in. If they had an artist describing paint drying I'd probably be right there for that.
I agree thats definitely reflected in the success of this chanel
now here, on this paint dry- you see how the moisture stays sticky-tacky cause of these hills and valleys. This is straight eggshell right here, both in sheen and color. You just KNOW they had a good coat of primer on this surface before the painting started. I remember this one job...
This isn’t Thomas Pridgen, he’s wearin a shirt.
I’ve definitely watched a guy explain every facet of how and why to use a 2X4
Watch the samurai guy. Noooo enthusiasm lol. Very interesting but noooo enthusiasm.
GQ: "Hey bro, judge these fake drummers."
This dude: "Those are drums alright. Want to hear a story."
Fun fact Dana Carvey aka Garth is a real drummer
Hahaha 100%
Myles teller played most of the drum parts other than the ending solo
dude, most musicians have an 3 hour story if get stumble with them lol
Miles Teller’s drumming in Whiplash was completely real tho. It was all him
"The conductor is lowkey hazing this guy" there's nothing lowkey about the hazing lmao
Highkey hazing
The definition of Hazing.😆 JK killed it tho. I got mad at him.
He low key threw a chair at his head
"The hardest part of being a drummer is living next to other people who are not drummers"
Word 😝
@@calebmadisonn college.
This isn’t Thomas Pridgen, he’s wearin a shirt.
also no dreads
Haha I came here to say this. Dammnit
Ahah you can see the crease lines in that shirt like it’s brand new. GQ prob forced him to wear one
But it's tryna come off.
It’s a brand new shirt, so he had to go buy one for the shot lol
This dude connected to each clip on a personal level and his descriptions makes me wanna get a drum set for sure
Do it!
This is one of the best “break down” videos I’ve seen. His enthusiasm for his topic and his ability to articulate the arcane concepts of his art are amazing and infectious. I never cared about drumming before this video.
Not so for me, I've always had a love of drums, but never being coordinated enough to ever play all I could do was enjoy, and marvel, I was born in 71, so I grew up In the 80's,and 90's, and still wonder whatever happened to head bangers balls? I never got to attend any as I was too young, or they were far away, but now they don't exist although I think they should to entertain crowds,, but also showcase new talent, against seasoned veterans.
As a former band kid all through college Whiplash gave me severe anxiety
My heart straight sank when he said to say what 215 tempo knowing full well some people think we just know that
@@donvalentino9822 ? what ?
as a jazz student i wanted to reach through the screen and square up with fletcher
@@philipthomey7884 I believe he's referring to Fletcher calling tempos with no context, as if a skilled drummer can play an exact BPM because they're some kind of human metronome. That's just not how it works, trying to count exactly 215 beats per minute is impossible unless you're some kind of savant with a perfect internal clock or have spent your entire life practicing at that one tempo.
What’d you play ?
They couldn’t have picked a more relevant and exceptional drummer to do this!
Nico Vasquez Yeah I agree! Thomas is young enough to know the movies discussed but he knows the history of the instrument as well!
Nate Smith would’ve been great too.
Preach
I initially read it as “they COULD have picked...”. I was very offended for about 4 seconds lol.
Agree!
Thanks. This deepens my 'appreciation' of Whiplash as a film about someone subjected to a controller/abuser. If Pridgen doesn't even know what the director character wants..whoa the nightmare is even deeper. Never mistake abuse for good teaching or coaching. Great coaches are rarer than abusers that's why I think we've all been in that situation.
THOMAS! My dude 👏🏼
Hey
@@Tommy_keyys lol
Man Cobus Potgieter - grew up watching you.
"Professional Drummer" = biggest understatement I've ever heard
I am a profesdional percussionist
@@matthewgonano636 I am in a percussion ensemble, and I was paid to play Marimba, Piano, and Drum set. 120 bucks for 2 and a half hours.
@@matthewgonano636 because Thomas pridgen is a really great drummer. Like really great 😂
@@matthewgonano636 I just meant he's arguably one of the best drummers alive today haha, I am also just a huge fan though so maybe my personal bias as well.

“The drummer is the most rock n roll because he’s not at the interview”

Just quotin bro
@@rawsonsimmons9421 yeah bro! I found most of his quotes Appalling!
@@massimomaxmajorana oh get over it
Thomas Pridgeon is a phenom. He's a remarkable drummer and seems like he's really down to earth.
Imagine being 17 and hanging out with the Mars volta lol, man's seen some things for sure
Love Pridgen. Saw him SLAY the drums for three hours straight with The Mars Volta when they played Brixton during the Bedlam in Goliath tour.
That was an insane gig!
The mars volta played for 3 hours?
@@jamesmorris9957 4 songs were played then
A Good band knows when to end concerts.
3 hours is to Long.
*Raises goblet* To long!
Saw him play at House of Blues in Myrtle Beach with The Mars Volta. His drumming brought down the house that night. It was so stunning, mesmerizing, and powerful!
lol, I saw them live twice when he was in the band. His drumming was one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen a human do in real life. Just incredible.
Saw them at Myrtle beach too. Forever ago
Have his sticks till this day. Saw tmv play with pridgen too many times 🤣 mesmerizing is the perfect way to describe his drumming
@@LisaLee__ that's awesome, to this day I'm still disappointed I never got to see them
I was at that same show. First time I’d seen Volta without Theodore. While I still maintain Jon is far superior at writing, Thomas is truly a sight to see. He killed it.
Thomas is a BEAST. I loved him when he was drumming for the Mars Volta.
i love how he talks about connecting with the audience, the spiritual side of how an audience and band interact with each other when they're playing. I've been at shows where it's like hypnotic, the band playing crowd singing and swaying, collectively singling along to all the same parts but stopping and letting the lead singer be isolated and sing alone at certain times then go right back to singing along. it's insane and definitively something to experience.
I didn't even recognize him at first. I haven't seen him since TMV with his long hair and not wearing a shirt. Still one of the best drummers in the world.
This man is one of the main reasons I picked up drumming as a kid. Great dude and an inspiration. I’d kill to have his lifestyle. Traveling and playing in clubs all around the world, collabing with great musicians, dudes got the life.
How about practicing instead of killing
literally same. After Bedlam In Goliath I bought a $15 dollar drumset in 8th grade and still play today.
@@MannyGodinez95 where would you find a 15 dollar drum set?
@@michaeledgerton3508 my neighbor had a yardsale and sold his 80s tama rockstar kit with the og pdp single drive double pedal. even came with 1 paiste 404 crash ride and a 15in. zildjan new beat hats. be mindful, they were definitely not in immaculate condition but I had to start playing some kind of drums to emulate Pridgen’s signature chops. lucky me I guess to get it so cheap
@@MannyGodinez95 that’s a nice start. As long as it works for you it’s good. I started playing when I was little so I got one of those tiny kits that came with everything.
The best thing about the Waynes World clip is Dana Carvey was really playing that! It was all him.
Well, i mean, he does like to play.
Exactly. I believe Carvey pulled out solos to end his stand up routines too.
The fact that this dude didn't even know, that Dana ACTUALLY played that solo or that no one corrected him, is funny.
Yo congrats Thomas!!!! 😆😆😆🔥🔥🔥
@@markbrown2784 why we have to know that? 99% of ppl don’t know or care about that movie or it’s actors.
Thomas Pridgen was the best drummer I've ever heard live. Saw him with Suicidal tendencies. While the band was good, He was by far the most talented person in that band.
Even when he's talking, it feels like he's vibing, like playing a drum.
I was a drummer in high school, and I had a band director throw a sharp white baton with a solid wooden ball on the end that was about the size of a lemon at my head and it parted my hair and exploded on the wall in back of me. As I was playing a concert bass drum I had bent over to tie my shoe and that’s when he threw it. After I heard it break into a million pieces on the cement wall I realized what had happened and 2 other drummers grabbed me and held me back. I didn’t say anything but the band director was fired shortly thereafter. Could have killed me. I later told my grandmother about it and she said the same director had thrown a chair at my uncle, also a drummer, 7 years earlier and destroyed a tympani
Woww... I don’t even know what to say. I admire passion but some people just take it too far lol. Glad you’re ok
If you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a sharp white baton with a solid wooden ball on the end...
@@OU81TWO now THAT is the funniest movie ever
I meaaaannn baton handles are really more the size of two chestnuts
@Rob Montraix were you rushing or dragging?
J.K. Simmons absolutely kills me in that movie 🤣 I really like the idea of him being on the set in his car, windows rolled up, screaming at the top of his lungs to get himself ramped up to go film this scene.
“Other musicians don’t keep time”
I feel called out
Producer: How many Camera switches do you want?
Director: Yes.
The editor is earning that paycheck.
THANK YOU. I felt like I was taking crazy pills, good god.
You probably already know this, but as an editor I can explain. The editor is using camera changes to cut out things like "uhm" and "ah", removing long pauses, removing redundant statements, as well as fusing different sentences together to make the video a little more concise. You'll see the same thing in all of these kinds of videos because these experts aren't really known for being fluid public speakers haha.
11:17 😂😂😂
Once you notice you cannot unsee.
Yo congrats Thomas!!!! 😆😆😆🔥🔥🔥
Drum internet = broken
@@8020drummer oh dang. 80/20 is here
Drum nation cake here cuz I saw Thomas Pridgen on my recommended
It’s about to be a Drummer’s ball right here
THIS IS AWESOME
I'm so glad they spent so much time on Whiplash, bc as a drummer, that scene drove me crazy too. He explained it very well.
This guy is the real REAL deal by the way. Wax Simulacra and a *bunch of other stuff* by The Mars Volta is absolutely bananas.
One of my favourite drummers in the Mars Volta line up
He gets hated on for overplaying but I think the bedlam album needed that, it's got some of their most intense schizophrenic songs.
But octahedron he's so tight like waiting for the drums and then he comes in perfectly
The funny thing is that in "Wayne's World" Danna Carvery really played that drum solo for real, he improvised it there in the spot and they thought it was so good that that only take made it to the cut…
Strange this guy didn't know that though...
For anyone who cares, in "Whiplash," the reason he count him in in 7 is because in normal time this part of the piece is written in 15/16 or 15/8 depending on the tempo. So, because 15 beats creates a line-long measure, basically it's broken into alternating measures. Namely, in this scenario it should be 8/8 to 7/8 in a repeating manner to complete the phrase. So, he knows that the pick up is on 7, or at the end of the latter measure in the alternating sequence. It goes 1,2, a 3- a 4- (5) 6 and a 7 and 8 and 1 2 a3- a 4 5 and a 6 and a se-ven ONE. The funniest part is with the rushing and dragging part of the scene certain smacks are rushing and others dragging. Haha poor guy probably got discombobulated XD
Also, this IS technically 8/4 to 7/4 if the tempo is 1/4 note= 215 bpm. Haha it could be in eighth notes, but I guess the composer REALLY wants it to be 215 and not 214 or 216. Otherwise you could just play it at a normal tempo in a 15/8.
Played lead horn on Whiplash freshman year of high school - such an intimidating piece and the groove was so hard to pick up. Once the band got the feel though it was a blast, still one of my favorite pieces
@@alpacapella5873 Pieces in odd times are really hard to play with your brain, but once you feel the groove it suddenly comes very naturally. Take Five is another classic example.
The 34 minutes literally flew by and I think watching a 10 min video is too much, this guy is dope, cool vibes
I’m sayin’
Saw Thomas do a drum clinic 10 years ago and he couldn’t have been a more chill, down to earth and talented guy.
"I have people ask me how long I practice and I never really think about it that way because I'm doing it out of love."
Well put. I think this applies to anything you do as hobby.
"Pridgen won the Guitar Center Drum-Off at age nine, and at age ten was the youngest recipient for a Zildjian endorsement in the nearly 400-year history of the company."
This guy has been my hero ever since I learned how to play and I genuinely can't think of a guy more qualified to break down these scenes. Loved the talk!
The movie Whiplash has really nothing to do with drumming and everything to do with the idea of the obsessed artist. The drums are merely an instrument (pardon the pun) by which the director tells the story of the obsessed artist. It's a story about how far someone is willing to go to be great. Whiplash still my favorite movie all-time along with The Shawshank Redemption and Inception.
Inception sucks
@@fuckin88er You Suck 😡
@@bishopjones9383 Terminator 2 had more depth, more emotional attachment , WAY less plot holes, better storyline, more character development, and ratio of winning to losing Academy Awards
What I find interesting about whiplash, as a drummer myself, is imagining how I would react if I were in the protagonist's place. It's an interesting thought experiment. I know I for one would not put up with the director's crap.
@@amosanon8788 It's definitely what makes the story so interesting because you almost become emotionally invested and almost try to envision yourself in the same position. It's tough to say how I would react. I think it shows an interesting dilemma between being unhappy and seeing something through or just changing paths altogether. In the case of the protagonist of Whiplash I think he wanted to be great so desperately that he put up with the abuse because he had no other choice. It was Shaffer or bust for him. He felt that if he couldn't make it at Shaffer he couldn't accomplish his goal of being great. In many cases, this is true for most people who are striving to be great. In this case he accomplishes his goal, but at what cost?
Never played any instruments but it is just fascinating hearing the interview. It is like a peak into paradise.
I never heard of this guy but I'm definitely going to look him up, such a positive attitude.
This is someone I'd like to play with.
He's one the craziest most talented drummers out there.
the passion and love pouring out of him as he gives us stories of his experiences was beautiful to watch
Thomas is one of this generations' greatest talents on the drums. Definitely check out his stuff on CZcams.
I think that if he watched the first part of the clip where they play the song it would have saved him a lot of confusion. The song is in 7/4 which is why jk Simmons counts off in 5,6,7 but you couldn’t know that unless you heard the song before they stopped
I've been looking for someone to comment on this! They played segments of the groove though, I feel like he should have caught it
This guy is so groovy. *Now googling everything about him.
Incredibly talented but the biggest jerk ever unfortunately
@@triviadude911 ?
I was at a Mars Volta concert when Pridgen was the drummer and Cedric, the singer, suddenly begun taking parts of the drum and throwing them to us, the audience. It was so wild and mad, and Pridgen, oh man, he was a beast that night, playing so hard and so good.
a true legend and phenomenal spokesman for the drumming community.
Pridgen is a legend. For anyone just learning about him now I highly suggest looking him up. Just an incredible artist💕
7:39 "Being on any instrument is somewhat a relief" I feel like this rings to musicians who can't always be with instruments all the time. And so once they sit down and plug their guitar to an amp, or sit on the throne and pickup the sticks, the feeling of release just comes over, and a sense of bliss inhabits your mind while you play. It's amazing
9:59 bro this speaks for a lot of us musicians that live and breath their instrument I don’t even have a schedule I follow everyday I just feel like playing for hours everyday and I have for 4 years straight and it’ll never be boring
I’ve played drumset my whole life but never joined a band. The way this dude talks about jamming out makes me want it so bad man
You should man. Groups are awesome. Im a brass player and the feeling of connecting with people who love music is one of a kind.
make it happen, life is short, my dude 👍🏼
Been following Thomas since the early 2000s, glad to see he’s still on top. One of the best drummers on the planet, period.
My guy wearing a professional top for the camera, and pajama pants like he didn't know the camera sees everything.
"Noone can catch a tempo if its that short." Classical musicians crying in the corner trying to figure out why you guys get count offs and we dont😔
Breathe - arm moves downwards and hits invisible sponge cake - and the string pizzicati are absolutely together. Blows my mind every single time.
I had a feeling classical musicians would feel some kind of way about that statement
@@lambchu6459 you're right, I'm a classical musician and I definitely feel some kind of way about this comment.
It’s different when you’re the one who sets and maintains the tempo for the whole piece
As a jazz and classical musician I definitely prefer jazz directors.
When your favorite drummer gets on GQ ✈️ ✈️ ✈️ 🔥🔥🔥
Thomas is the best drummer I’ve ever seen live. I got to see him when he was with The Mars Volta, and my mind was pretty blown.
Always remember seeing him with The Mars Volta around 08 maybe and, as a guitarist, was so excited to see Omar but left the show just blown away by the drummer.
After watching "Soul," I can't help but think of Garth being in "the zone" when he goes ham during that drum solo.
he is so driven, intellegent and articulate. it was a pleasure listening to him
As a drummer, this is spot on. Well done guys 👏 this guy knows what he’s talking about for sure.
I just love how Thomas exudes his love of drums and love of music. So emotionally fulfilling
love Thomas-non-stop-solo-Pridgen - what phenomenal insight!
thomas pridgen is an absolutely ridiculous musician. His playing on bedlam in goliath blew my mind. this is super cool
That intro to Wax Simulacra. :O
this man was the drummer for The Mars Volta, he wasn't the first, wasn't even my favorite, but by god I need to spread the word of the Volta anywhere I can, if you hear him playing with that band, you'll know he is a force to be reckoned with, totally did not expect to see his name here!
Same. Last thing I expected. But hopefully Volta will come back soon
@@boarderking133 I think they wanted to come back this year (playing only softer stuff probably) but we all know how that turned out :(
Jon theodore was volta drummer to me,
@@jakehyrule7260 he's the best yea
@@nowone666 for sure. Big qotsa fan here also haha.
Thomas is the DRUM LORD! Favourite drummer of all time. Awesome segment.
This man can talk about what he does forever in a million different ways. I love it ❤️
My dad's drummer ALWAYS knew if someone played his drums. He knew just by the position of the sticks or his kit. Never was able to fool him. So some drummers do really know.
I remember an art teacher tell us how when she was in university a fellow student was crying during a critique and the teacher said with his thick French accent, “I would cry too if I made that.”
Bro I’m so happy for Thomas. I’ve been watching videos of him for years since I was a kid. This is amazing
Best explanation of using drum rudiments I have ever seen... Its one thing to play them, its another thing to explain how an why they are useful, for creating dynamics an improving technique....
I got such a huge smile when I saw this man and his name in the title :) love this dudes playing
I love that this guy is just recognizing that these are FILMS and not just trashing the movie for how musically inaccurate they are😂
he literally musically judged Whiplash right off the bat lmao
13:09 👌🏻As a drummer, this is so relatable.. Watching this guy for years.. humble, intelligent, talented dude!
Thomas.....I ran across this Video on IG and I just want to tell YOU How Proud I am of YOU and your explanation of Drum Terms and Ideology of The Drum Community. Your Analyzation of the Different Clips was AMAZING! I am Very Proud of YOU Thomas!
Fletcher: we’re you rushing or dragging
Blue face: both
“Being on a drum set or being on any instrument is somewhat a relief.”
I felt that
Wow. As someone, who plays piano for about 28 years now (though never at a professional level), your breakdown here gave me so many insights and you spoke so much truth. Thank you!
Had to click this right away! He's my favourite drummer and I'm so glad I saw him play with my favorite band "The Mars Volta like 10 years ago! Thomas is insane!
So cool to see Thomas on GQ, well deserved and a great video!!!
What a legend. I'll never forget seeing him for the first time with mars volta on letterman. Mind blown.
this made me love thomas pridgen even more, he's so chill!
Got to see Thomas with The Mars Volta years ago; dude is one off the technical greats. That show was mind-blowing.
One of the most insane concerts I've ever been to was The Mars Volta in Chicago. There were so many people packed in this tiny place. There was no room for a mosh pit, you're mostly trying to lift your face up to get air while the crowd sways you in different directions. I would have rather been jumping around, but every crowd is different. I wonder when that'll be a normal thing again.
I saw Volta in Chicago in 09 I think
I nearly fainted when this popped up in my recommended videos. This is so cool.
So insightful for someone who can’t play a lick of music. It breaks it down in a way I understand and appreciate.
Ive had some private lessons with TP. This guy is as cool and down to earth as he comes across. World Class drummer. World Class teacher.
I remember running to the magazine stand after school to buy the latest edition of Modern Drummer where he was on the cover
I see Thomas Pridgen in the title! I watch straight away !! Legend !!
So glad this man is getting recognition! He's been crazy good for a very long time!
best one of these I've seen! give this guy a TV show! America's next best drummer!!!
Love how the drum community is backing my boy Thomas
It’s always funny seeing people’s perspectives on Whiplash knowing it’s about the band program I was part of.
You could not have found a better drummer to do this video. Thomas has such a positive vibe!
Thomas Pridgen going as D.L. Hughley for Halloween.
🤣👏🏽
Ayooo, uncanny
Lmao
Hahaha
They look nothing alike.
I’m glad they showed a That Thing You Do! Clip
WOW! Simply, Wow! He fully knows the ins and outs of his art. A complete class!
I saw this man on drumeo and holy smokes his playing is super dynamic, crazy fast, but smooth like he's really not trying he's got a ton of chops
Thomas is a genius and genuine to the bone! He explains drums and a drummer mindset so well. Love that this channel picked him. Great guy!
