- For the last show of the 2014 tour welcome back into Scott Rockenfield's office for a drum pounding session of "Eyes of a Stranger" & "Empire" at the Snoqualmie Ballroom 12.5.14. As the last video of the year I added some short behind the scene bonus clips that will make ya laugh your head off as to the fun back in this band. Watch poor Fozzy & the drumstick tossing aftermath and the comical Todd backstage. Oh how can I forget Scott's brother surprising even me during "Eyes of a Stranger", you won't miss it ha ha!! Hope you enjoy and hope to bring you lots more of these rare clips from the Ryche road in 2015! www.Queensryche...

Such a talented crisp and clean player. His ghosting is incredible.
After all these years listening to this song I was surprised how many little snare rolls Scott throws in.
braincrisp1 you never hear them out front!!! the gates are so tight on the board that you never hear em...when I saw this video I was stunned to hear and see how many ghost notes he is playing,now maybe on the albums he may not have but it directly works in his playing and is so integral in the way he plays and where he puts them then it almost sounds like they're supposed to be there and that just the final mixes never had them there
I do not know where did you hear the rolls.
Same here !!! :O
Criminally underrated drummer. People always talk about how important DeGarmo and Tate was to QR but forget about Scott. He was a huge part of their sound with his unique style. Sad to see he’s not in the band anymore.
What makes Rockenfield my favorite drummer is that he has an ability to play these drum lines that are as complicated as any other progressive rock drummer yet the lines are so rounded in their feel that if you stop concentrating on his intricacies you feel as if he’s just playing a normal standard beat. I really find this is unique to him and him alone. For me that kind of playing is the most pleasurable to listen to and it’s quite the anomaly.
So cool to watch him at work !!! Long live the ryche !!
On "Eyes", it's a perfect drum arrangement to a perfect song! BTW, Back in the 80's, Scott was not underated. He was a very respected drummer.
He and Queensryche were the starting point for me into prog. I didn’t know about them till after Empire had been out for 2 years. In 1992 as a high school freshman I got my first real drum kit and it had to be a Tama kit in sugar white along with Paiste cymbals! All these years later he’s still one of my top 3 drummers!
Love getting to see this point of view. I'm a drummer myself (not near this level) I've studied him like a religion. He, as far as drummers go, is my God
I ve been drumming many of yrs , never touched this level, and man do I appreciate this
This is an awesome video! Thanks for providing this perspective. Mr. Rockenfield has always been one of my favorite drummers. Love his style and approach. His snare sound incredible! Hope to find how he achieves that sweet sound.
scott (THE SURGEON) ROCKENFIELD
Freeking Scott is an ANIMAL!! So awesome just to watch him do his thing.
This man can play the drums
That's crazy. Scott reinvented drumming. U can dance to it
someone needs to find his massive double tier cage white Empire Tama kit with the white chain cymbal holders...set it up and video away...that shit has to still be floating around somewherez
His mother had it the garage for like 25 years . Ended up giving it away to a guy in Washington state. There is a video of the kit here on y tube . The snare sold on eBay for like a grand or something......crazy.
***** that would be a cool video to see...I only know of the video where donn bennet is selling his black ludwig kit and Scott and Don are standing in front of it talking about the early tours...but it would be great to see the white Tama...and to bad they sold the snare and separated it
Those old tama drums were very loud . Made for rock n roll .....no light stuff.
That was a Pearl kit
Scott was bashing on.
That was an impressive kit. Imagine the nightmare of a stadium sound check night after night for that rig. It was really cool and quite the presence on stage. Thanks for this.
What a great drummer!
Excellent, I always love to watch these SRock drum cam videos!! \m/
Just wondered if Scott has seen this footage of himself.....Great footage !
Cheerz!
So crisp.
Wow, these videos are great. Scott doesn't just play drums, he plays music, as intricate and complex arrangements. Nice to see mutual cues from Eddie at 10:30. Thanks so much for uploading this!!
One of the best rock drummers thanks great video
I’m a drummer and i an a nobody who never made it famous like Scott. I was always impressed by Scott. One of my faves. I’m shocked at how jazzy he plays Empire. I’m sure the front of house sound doesn’t pick up the subtleties like this behind the kit mic did. There is no telling how many shows Scott has played. I can’t help but feel that he is bored here. He plays it perfect though. I absolutely mean no disrespect or anything critical. Oh, and I’m shocked at how tight and muted his snare is here. But, it sounds amazing. I’m sure the front of house is wet with reverb. Come back Scott!
Great iso on the drums.
Scott always delivers!
See you guys in Dec.
@the Congress Theatre!
Such a great video! love the clean sound!
Good God, that snare sound is off the hook!
FUCK!!!... IS HE AWESOME!!!... MAYBE THE BEST I EVER HEARD!!!... HIM AND EDDIE JACKSON (BASS) ARE JUST STAGGERING AWESOME!!!.... DAMN IT!!!... THEY GOT TO GET ALL THE BOYS BACK TOGETHER!!!!... BURY IT ALL!... WE ONLY HAVE ONE LIFE.... AND THEY MADE MINE QUITE A BIT BETTER!!!.. MY WHOLE FAMILY LIVES IN SEATTLE!!!... MY GRANDMA LOVES THIS BAND!!!
Solid! Great pocket he's laying down \m/ cool perspective to see the show from too

Beautiful work Scott !!!!
Freaking love u guys always respect
Beast mode🤘
Is that Bender with the "balls itch" comment?? LOL! Awesome video Mike!!
No Scott's brother HA HA!!!
yesssss!!!
two surface riding! love it!
rock that shit rocknfield doubleling them tripltes
So this is what Scott actually hears with the headphones during the concerts?
LOL, no. This is what you hear standing behind his kit.
It's what he'd hear if he didn't have the headphones.
Highly doubtful, he would need the other instruments in his ear. This sounds like a dry mix off either a separate mixer for the drums only or a drums only group of channels off the main board. This seems like the former method.
Scott Rock 🤘❤
How do I get Skype lessons with Scott...I have been playing for some yrs..and always more to learn...and have been a fan since the queen of the reich. ep...which my brother has on 201 records I believe it is....
Top shelf player...
He doesn't (currently) play a gigantic kit too which is a big plus.
God doesn't even play drums this well
Scottoctopus!!!
Right on! \m/
look around 10:30
Todd did not spit!! :D
I was lucky enough to see them open for Metallica on the And Justice for All Tour in LR at Barton , they played the whole Operation Mindcrime album while me and my friends were on a heavy shroom journey, what a night, what a night indeed, I chained smoked about two packs of cigarettes that night, and the whole place was filled with pot smoke so thick you could see the cloud, it smelled so good in there, this was back when you could smoke all the pot you wanted to without getting busted by the cops patrolling around the halls, I think I remember even seeing Sweet Connie (yes Grand Funk Connie) hanging out, come to think about it, I seen a bunch of shit that night.
