Terry Bozzio At 2011 Drum Night Pt 2

[momoville100k]

Terrys work is quite unique its not really fair for so many to put down his style of playing. it may sound simple or boring to some but its quite difficult to play and you need to remember most everything is written on paper note for note.

[hjfkhgfckhcckhg]

To everyone who says his kit is pointless or speaks of his narcissism and sense of inadequacy (wtf? lol), watch this:

[JazzieIQ]

@hjfkhgfckhcckhg Saw it; This is the opinion of a musician that hasn't gotten the amount of gigs he's got, yet Its a seemingly straight forward beat I've heard from him; he bores me most of the time, His Rhythms are crap compared to the music he tries to emulate; With all his 1/4 tones. However will reiterate myself in a better way; Terri Bozzio is pepper, it's tasty and still a spice, but.... umm every band in the world that plays his style (actually most of the other genres to) needs salt..

[newbiepl]

I feel sorry to the sound engineer which had to mic it all up:(

[funkysc100]

I think he needs couple bassdrums more..

[gjqudgh]

Amazing drum set ...!

[AL3XAPOCALYPSE94]

not going to lie and i don't mean to hate, its just my opinion but guys like this probably just about every percussion piece that he owns, doesn't use half of it and either sounds boring, and when its not its kind of annoying. i'm nowhere near as good but i'm just wondering what was so entertaining about this.

[AL3XAPOCALYPSE94]

@AL3XAPOCALYPSE94 he does keep really impressive rhythm on the bass though while he's speeding like you could never imagine with his hands. i like what he's doing but i couldn't really stand the sound of it.

[AAaudio710]

all that drumset?....and thats all we get

[lovelylisamariewhite]

Incredible independence, coordination, dynamics and composition. Genius.

[mistercoughy]

His drum kit speaks of his narcissism and sense of inadequacy. Maybe he's a good drummer, but he confuses Quantity with Quality. If you have a beautiful house, does piling 6 more houses on top of it make it better? Terry would say yes..and that sounds as wrong as this solo.

[Jellybeantiger]

And his playing is not overrated.Just dig up some of his Zappa,UK work for starters.

[Jellybeantiger]

I love this solo personally.Very musical and captures all the textures of hitting things.Tasty and spicy and Earthy all at the same time.

[sayde73]

I got bored at 30 seconds....big kit but.....just that, im not saying that terry sucks  but shit start a drumshop better jajajaja

[LEYDELASERO]

es mucha bateria para el estilo de este terry

[Caiodrummercg5]

Tomas Lang tira um som muito bom com uma bateria bem menor.

Não vejo porque usar tudo isso de tambores, a bateria não faz um baterista, e sim o estudo!

[maikweinhardt]

his drumming just sucks!!!!

[albyuke]

simply overrated!

[Leelovesdrumming]

This just has no feeling to it :-)

[TheJollynerd]

this is by far the most boring drum solo i've ever seen.

I give you carter beauford: watch?v=KOatIrazULw

you're welcome.

[drummin4InTheShadows]

he should do something like charge $10 to play his kit for 15 minutes.... id do it :D

[ramennnn07]

For the ones who saud is much of a drumset for him try to put urselves on his position and listen the whole thing, he is not one of the best just coz u r better than him jajajjajaajajaja big lesson here listen the whole thing before u start saying anything

[yugiohyugioh12345]

This is a piece which separates the drummers from musicians

[scooterdavis2112]

majorly boring...

[scooterdavis2112]

majorly boring...

[TheLament666]

i wonder how often he replaces his drum heads,and how much does that cost? 0.o lol

[pearlmeninnoa]

@TheLament666 I think its a clear coat dw drum head tuned high

[rossignolmusic]

I would see a solo concert of that anytime! Very musical, thanks for giving drums a touch of noblesse!

[hellohiholaify]

i've never seen him do anything melodic with his drums that has specifically tuned to notes. massively overrated drummer

[TheLament666]

@hellohiholaify first off his independance is unlike anyother player ive ever seen! secondly most of his solos are melodic! think of it this way his toms are tuned similar to a steel drum.

[WorldWar2ismylastnam]

that was a lame drum solo. I was more impressed with the drums instead of the drummer.

[V4Kt0RR]

@WorldWar2ismylastnam That is fucking bullshit, I saw him live, he was amazing. Here you just see his intro noob. If you wan't to comment on his performance you better see the whole solo first.

[clangerlover]

How exciting...

[francochavez1]

mucha bateria pal weon......nada espectacular...

[scrumsie]

Needs more cowbells.

[sloburnbilly]

i want that kit for xmas :-)

[a5hatch]

This was probably the most boring solo Ive ever seen....

[gibson00000000000000]

@a5hatch hahaha it is, only thing interesting was him keeping that 4 way limb independence..

[StewieFavre]

hey everybody, let's have a luau!

[Dim3n3n]

i think i never understand this drummer

[karst007]

i feel like wearing a loin cloth and dancing around a fire. either that or I would like to kill a lion with a club.

[jts024]

this would have been cool 300 years ago

[AngelDrumStar]

4 minutes playing on 1 snare, 2 toms, hi hat ... And the Rest ??

[korny1992]

1:23 jajajaja 2" splash??? lol!!!!!

[MNskins11]

guy is amazing!

...but i still haven't ever seen/heard him play a tune

[stoner12008]

Terry, just ask for a pension already! for fuck sakes.

[proliant666]

Este hombre ya no toca nada.

[oaktubs]

$200,000 worth of drums and cymbals should at least SOUND like 6 people playing together. This sounds like one guy walking around a drum shop trying everything. Not saying I'm better, hell no. Not even close. I just can't see the point of a drumkit the price of a house when it can't even conjure the sound of say... a good afro-cuban rhythm group. Horatio "El Negro" Hernandez has a regular-ish kit and sounds like a complete Latin rhythm group.

[MrSulfurMustard]

@oaktubs Horacio Hernandez is a really talented drummer indeed, that's not breaking news. The thing is Bozzio's a completely different musician, with different 'needs', musical taste etc. With all due respect to your humble opinion, music's not about '(musician)'s better at (instrument) than (another musician). Let's keep it this simple: You're not Bozzio or Hernandez, or (as you stated) anyone nearly as good as both these drummers; you have no right to compare each other.

[aidan9565]

@oaktubs well at least you will never be missing a drum or cymbal etc. for a piece :)

[thebombdigity124]

@oaktubs his kit is alot more than 200,000

[mlnsbaxter]

This is what happens when the drummer cant play guitar :-) Just kidding.

[spukus]

I like how the kick pattern sounds like a second line groove

[Joselo1693]

why is he using his small kit?

[CenkutU]

Dear God, can this dude play anything but this avantgarde shit? I know everybody is praising him for that, but man...can I just get some regular kick-ass shit like Thomas Lang. This may be art but ITS BORING!!!

[sonick808]

holy kit

[bgrajeda1]

Man anyone hating on him doesn't get it he isn't just a drummer he's an artist!! He's making music with the drums alone something most drummers can't do!

[mikegalsworthy]

OK, I wasn't that impressed, but the little roll at 4:17 was lovely - and I liked the rug smash at the end - ha!

[chapter2467]

boring

[ShrikDaddy]

if only he was skilled??? what are you talking about... This is one of the great drummers of all time. Just watch him and Zappa do city of tiny lights

[Xeathyr]

If only he was skilled.. wtf.

[eqsmooth]

Terry's kit just replaced the entire Department of Defense and the Pentagon. And he cut the budget by only needing 1 musician to play all the parts. Vote Bozzio!

[amitzzxx]

bad drummer... big dislike.. its so simple for such a huge kit..

[Edgarbopp]

fantastic



[PYROprod1]

bozzio can beat a group of taiku drummers!!!

[Joungbin96]

To those people who think this video is boring

If it's boring then why do you watch it?

He's known for his melodic drumming and I'm a person who like those kind of drumming

people these days are so influenced by loud music like heavy metal and rock, forgetting classical sounds

[Cyclonedrummer1325]

whens he is in the groove he looks like hes on crack lol

[RoromZ]

boring...

i like TB but this IS boring.

[slippinator]

its funny cause thats only half the kit

[wendles28]

Very musical, more like classical percussion than kit drumming. Talented guy no doubt. Unfortunately, this lacks a bit of drama. Watch Evelyn Glennie, you'll see what I mean.

[pingu02]

you know what they say- big drumset, small d*** :D

no, but seriously, he can do all that and MORE, much more with a simple drumkit, look at jojo or benny greb... bozzio is a joke

[CorbaDoGroba]

this is expensive shit!

[dumadave10]

mega kit is getting old

[GonzoDrummer27]

@Torombolo3k No it's in there.

[DRUMSKAPE]

cool kit,. but I would love to see what he could come up with on a 4-5 piece kit. will he still retain the creativity in a minimalistic setting?.... the world may never know.

[Acfeiln]

@DRUMSKAPE

/watch?v=quQ42sMxPVw

short answer: yes.

[gorgobar]

Bozzio doesn't just play drums, he makes music.

[AlexDrums4Klunge]

@TravisBags There's at least one normal ride, and there are normal hats, they're just in a different place.

[physcopath808]

HE DOESN'T USE HALF OF THOSE FUCKING DRUMS

[mastigoz]

@physcopath808 not for this song, but yes for his whole repertoire, i think this was one of the most minimalistic things ive seen of him in a long time

[queenjojomojo1]

Check part one first!

[queenjojomojo1]

I bet Terry can go on much longer, using al thie "kit". But don't forget it was for television that this was recorded. With the blahdiblah of the presentator and the commercials.........

[rith5]

GO TERRY

[danielthursday2]

you and terry = clowns @veterarockero

[chris7626]

@danielthursday2 Your insults are worse than a clown's jokes.

[danielthursday2]

pff! he's just a clown

[veterarockero]

@danielthursday2 Your ignorance is amazing ......... the more likely it is that when he played with Zappa, you were not even born...........the only clown here is you

[crash7775]

Not very impressive

[MrDrummerdood]

I feel bad for his drum tech

[TheSunWillNeverRise]

@MrDrummerdood Well atleast the whole sets on wheels........

[earthgruves]

@MrDrummerdood I wonder how many techs he's gone thru.

[kandem360]

there must be a trailer hitch on the kit somewhere as the kit has wheels.

[FaithIsAccidental]

Meh.

[baorozzo]

Amazing!

He made interesting things!

I think he's a freaking genious!

[YukiCF]

he must have a big car :O

[JAM3Z3RZ]

MORE COWBELLL!!!!!

[pleased9]

When I saw his drum clinic in Seattle, I counted 32 toms - not counting floor toms. I think the whole idea is to be a one man band.

[Torombolo3k]

hes missing a microwave..

[awsomethingsmax2]

@Torombolo3k and the kitchen sink

[earthgruves]

@Torombolo3k I saw a toaster under his left leg.

[eqsmooth]

@Torombolo3k I was thinking an Osterizer bar blender and a George Forman grill

[yomanPDC]

That's alot of drums!

[Reilly1888]

I think he could squeeze a few more toms into that setup... Just on the left there beside that other tom... What a legend though!
