I love it when drumeo lets Chad out of their basement, it’s nice to let him get out for a bit
And always with the same shirt lol
He's been charging down there
@@willianoikawa1275 😆 All these vids were filmed at the same time obviously.
@@DavidOakesMusic yep to me seems like drumeo is a well oiled engine by now as a team,business. So much content and work they did so far for the community
😂
I love how he just doesn't care about playing it note for note perfectly. It is so much more enjoyable to just watch him flow.
Performances like this remind me how important conviction is, even when you have good fundamental technique. Not saying I have good technique, but I just know that it sounds far more horrific if I'm unsure of what I want to play!
Can’t blame him, would be so boring playing without improvising after all these decades
he's just jamming. for videos like this, it's cool to see
That’s what makes live shows amazing
I don't know anything about playing drums but Chad's joy and enthusiasm in his playing is so clear, it is a blast to watch him every time.
Just watched a video on a WW2 admiral Willis “Ching” Lee and dude was sent to be the woodchipper for them in DC and originally paperwork would be rubber stamped “routine, urgent,or priority” in that order. Well, he decided it wasn’t working for him so had his own rubber stamp made with the word “FRANTIC”…😂😂 they didn’t know what to do but get everything marked “FRANTIC” done immediately.
Reminded me of Chad. Also, dude won a National rifle competition after getting a bullseye from 1000 yards. So he decided to compete in the pistol competition, despite not being there for it. Anyway gun blows up in his hand from a round with too much powder. Without skipping a beat has a friend toss him another pistol and catches with his left non dominant hand and finishes and gets another gold medal.
Basically Chad Smith reincarnated.❤
It's cool to see, especially considering how many times he's played it over the years.
I love the quick shift from him being goofy in the intro to completely locked in from note 1
locked in + goofy at the same time
I knew that he was a super cool drummer, but these live versions are crazy. Thank you for focusing on Chad’s drumming. You made my day!
This guy should play for the Chili Peppers.
I love the way Chad doesn’t feel tied to the original recording and just plays whatever he wants. Bonzo was similar. Makes me feel free to play hard and loose too 👍🏻🥁
Same here! I have a tendency when I'm just playing along with music to want to stick to the original, but I'm learning to let myself do my own thing to a certain extent
Most drummers "play for the recording" when studio time comes. But live is another story.
@@benjaminvillarreal1499 Also they might not even remember what they recorded, because some musicians improvise while recording.
He gets easily bored, that's he feels to be playing in moment of not 😂
I love how this song seems like the tempo speeds up and slows down throughout … but it doesn’t, actually. The BPM is very steady. Chad’s drumming stylistic and rhythm choices give that variable-tempo illusion. It’s really cool, especially the work on the toms and the ride.
It's called "a real human playing"!
@@PurpleDreki I think it's actually good control over time dilation. A bad drummer would be out of sync with the time, a regular human would sound like you gave a monkey some sticks and it went apeshit.
I know you're just saying it's not computerized, but I feel like the way it was said undercuts his skill.
日本人です。退屈していた学生時代に彩りをくれたのはあなた達のバンドでした。あれから10年以上経ちますが、今でも大好きです。今年の来日は住んでいるエリアが違って行けないのですが、日本に来日していただけるだけで嬉しくてテンションがあがります。生きている間に生演奏を拝みたいです。世界の極東から愛を込めて。
If there was ever someone BORN to do something- it was Chad and this song 😍
I always heard drummers hate on this guy and say he can't drum but he's clearly an absolute hammer
I love that he jammed to his own recording and played whatever he felt like in the moment
Please continue to let Chad out of your dungeons over at Drumeo every now and then, nice to see him back
He's quickly becoming my favorite drummer. Such crazy technique mixed with great instincts, it's so awesome to watch.
Boy. What a drum mix. Drumeo is on top of their game. And chad is fantastic to watch. Loose and precise at the same time.
He fully, completely understood the assignment. I love that he fully knows the expectation, that fellow drummers are watching. Drummers drummer. This version should be on Spotify.
I would love to see the genius of Dave Lombardo and Igor Cavalera ! If I could play drums it would be because of these two. Loved seeing Chad’s playing as usual😊
My three favorite drummers!
This album for some reason always got me with the art cover. That weird painting full of inverted colors and a woman with a smirk on her face and eyes covered. I wonder what it means... It will always be one of my favorite album covers from the RHCP along with the pool of sky from Californication.
It’s so evocative. I really Love how the colors match the sound of the record. So wonderfully dark but vibrant
@@eze6982it wasn’t painted by John, it was a portrait of his girlfriend at the time Stella Schnabel, painted by her dad Julian Schnabel who is a famous artist
John did have huge creative input on that album
It's my favourite RHCP album. It's so melancholic yet hopeful.
The quiet confidence of the stick twirl always gets me. That’s when you know you’re the boss
This Man has so much energy and just such an amazing vibe. Thank you Chad for all your showmanship throughout the years
Not the biggest RHCP fan, but massive fan of Chad - Insane stuff dude!
...same...the total package of power/style/energy/groove/tight/loose...
...I could do without Anthony rhyming his way through his entire career...
This
Chad still living in Drumeo without paying any rent 😂
The RHCP are my favorite band but as a guitarist I never really payed much attention to the drum parts. These videos with Chad playing just gives me such another level of appreciation for theirs songs!
That's odd. The best best part of RHCP is the rhythm section. I, for one, am a lot less enthousiastic about Kiedis and Frusciante. RHCP with only guitar and vocals is very bland elevator music, nowadays.
@@pvdaele I agree with you but it just so happens that whenever I listen to them my mind just focus on the guitar parts thinking on how to play them 😅
All of them are killer musicians. Frusciante is so creative, groovy and never repeats himself in solos
Homie got so much control over every detail of what he's doing it looks like he's somewhere else in his mind, just chilling and vibing to the music his limbs are producing.
Still my favorite guest on Drumeo :D
Loved the Chad Smith reference on the "cowbell".
temple block
His passion runs true. He's still having fun. Phenomenal job!
This man was the reason I picked up my first pair of drum sticks. It’s now been 20 years… still to this day my favourite Drummer
love Chad's grooves! 😎
2:17 that left drum stick was bottom side up for a bit. Love how he flipped it in half a second without missing a beat.. Earthquakes and tornadoes could happen live at that drum kit at a show and Chad still remains in pocket. Legend.
Isn't it supposed to be that way when you do tappings?!!
I flew all the way to Costa Rica from NYC last year to see the RHCP and turned out to be one of the greatest shows! I play guitar but I still checked this out. Thanks for this!
No matter what you think of RHCP you have to admit this is an incredible song. One of the best choruses in rock history
Kudos to the audio engineer. I felt every drum in my Nuraphones - and that’s tough when CZcams compresses audio! If you’re gonna feel the drums, it should be Chad pounding them! Love him!
すげーーー
カッコよすぎる😍
レジェンドの余裕とサービス精神をめっちゃ感じた😃
Chad is a masterclass is having a song form, and improvising on that based on the feel of the moment... so many little cheeky momements. Delightful!
This is a person who has literally just internalised the concept of rhythm into his flesh and bone. Also the vocal harmonies sound amazing here.
I can’t get enough of watching Chad Smith smash out huge hits!
the legend is back.
His energy and flow are mesmerizing. Magnificent!!
His groove is out of this world!
Outstanding as always. Well done Mr. Smith
What a joy to watch, love the energy
The true greats are always taking something they played and then doing improv in their performances. Sure, they are keeping certain patterns the same or there are riff, fills, hooks that they want to maintain but as they move through the song they throw in what they want and it's seamless.
Such a Chad. ALWAYS fun listening to him play.
I love all the changes from the album version - this dude can really belt it out!
Chad the Tank is back, completely in symbiosis with his song. TOP
Damn I love watching him play, he is SO musical . . . right inside the song, playing with such confidence and fun that there can be no 'wrong' strokes.
This made my day. Such a joy watch a master at his craft. Just crushing it, in the moment.
I am always impressed with Chad's drumming skill/talent since I started listening to RHCP in the 90s. Thanks Drumeo for this video.
Still my favorite RHCP song. Glad to see it here.
Watching one of my greatest influences play one of the songs that started an entire journey goes straight to the soul. Cheers Chad, thanks Drumeo!
I was 18 years when this song released, this is Greatness!
Keep the Chad content coming. For ever. Please
Chad adds to my flavour to the Chilli's sound. He's perfect that band
That hi hat groove he does in the beginning with the clicks on the snare are amazing! Absolutely love the tom groove he does as well. In my opinion, the most impressive part of this video was the hi hat fix he does at around 1:51 with a slick stick change was so cool! Great video, great drummer
I truly appreciate how much you showcase this man! I'm no drummer, but I've always appreciated my drummers very much! He's a natural wonder!
WHAT A DRUMMER. Powerful, funky and funny!
I know absolutelty nothing about drums. But im obsessed with this channel and mesmerized by chads drumming specifically. Love rhcp, big fan
I'm not a Peppers fan but Chad is and has been a great drummer forever now.
This is so enjoyable and made me think that RHCP’s music is truly from heaven, so satisfying.
I was never a RHCP fan but I just love the way Chad drums. He has so much expressive style and when needed just explodes
Can’t wait for the full interview!!
Love the jazz swing ending. Superb drummer!
RHCP need to let this man start doing this for real
I love watching Chad jam along to songs because he's just like every teenage drummer ever whose been taking lessons for a while and has some intermediate to advanced skills... trying to just throw as many strokes and tricks in there as you can muster without falling crazily out of time. It's just nice to see a great recording drummer be just like one of us Weekend duffers when jamming along to our favourite tunes.
A duffer? My friend.
Amazing drummer! Love his groove and he can play so many different styles.
The sound mix is just soooo good
Man❤❤love the way you are getting better and better
I love you RHCP!❤
I met Chad the night before their show in Brazil last year, and all I can say is that he is a really chill guy, and I'm really happy for being able to met him and talk to him
I appreciate the amount of skill built over the years. Bravo sir.
THIS SONGGG!!!❤️❤️..He’s baaaaackkk!…love Chad and his kick ass drumming!❤
really this is a great work, complete artist
素晴らしい。本当にカッコいいドラマー。人としても大好き
How is drumeo guy the only one talking about Chad's dope jazz riff at 3:20 following Frusciante's guitar rhythm? I'd LOVE to hear THAT song too!!!
What a phenomenal musician.
Killer tone and sublime feel.
Hes just so much fun to watch!
Something about it makes me start to tear up. A master at work, someone who has put so much time into something that they exert almost effortless power. A dying art. People don't really care about live music too much anymore; it's nowhere near as powerful and meaningful as it used to be, due to other media distractions today and perhaps a lack of truly gifted artists. But when you see it in action up close, those drum hits that you've only experienced on an MP3 take on a new life of their own.
Chad is a damn master at his craft love to hear this guy play drums on anything
……oh and Chads def more talented at his thing then Will is at his acting thing hell Chad might even be better at that too lol and no shot at Will love him to also a genius! But god damn Chad can play some drums
Finally, I watched all your videos with Chad Smith and waited weeks for this song. Super Video!
