Dave Matthews - Ants Marching Rehearsal

[Kyushu314]

I loved it. The girl's performance is anemic to the point of being droll. Great contrast with the drummer's exuberance which threatens to go out of control towards the end but without it happening. . Just the perfect amount of garage band amateurishness. Who needs perfect all the time?  Not me. Ahh, real and refreshing. Keep at it.

[xX420DESTROYERXx]

singer is garbage

[supernoddy13]

drummer, you suck, your way to busy, and in a bad way, your pushing the whole song too far

[RDCureton2009]

How did they get 25,000 views when I've only got 328?! the world is fucked up. My shit is way better!

[mvc0529]

this video has had an unbelievably negative impact on my life

[kerados]

drummer rocks

sorry but girl sings it without heart

giutar guys... i don;t know...

but drummer ... grate job man!

[jlow520464]

Love the drummer

[frex3wv]

just.stop

[squintdrummerjosh]

Bit fast for the funky, laid back feel of the song, but damn, the drummer played very well for the limits he had.

[tennisIS4pussys]

constructive criticism, get a violin, have the sax player get a soprano sax, and get an acoustic guitar. Singer should know the lyrics. There really isn't much the drummer can do, Carter is one of the best drummers in the world. But you have potential. Sorry if I sounded like a dick

[fireball8798]

fyi to get the "Dmb" sound, u need a violin - u know like the GOOD dmb has. A couple probs with this

1. camera focused too much on drummer (hes just there to keep the beat, knothing more)

2. pathetic girl singing was off key and too quiet

3. was the bassist even playing ants marching?

on a scale of 1-10, ur a -7

[tennisIS4pussys]

@fireball8798 not true about the drummer, ever seen Carter play? Tell me he is just keeping a beat. Yea, in DMB the drummer does more than keeping a beat

[xChallisx]

@fireball8798 wtf is this the 1940's? Drums are far more than just keeping a beat...

[tamadrum32]

holy crap this is awful

[anaconda52]

when ur doing so much on ur high hat it doesn't sound so great. keep it simple

[jk0002]

you guys successfully murdered one of dmb's best songs. absolutely pathetic. the lady singing is a god damn disgrace. hideous.

[MrJCStephenson]

better than i expected. kinda fast though. good drum cover, its hard to follow carter beauford

[Scizzi]

Sorry guys, but this is terrible!

[upnunder13]

nice job..not an easy song. drummer is all over it technique-wise but the tempo is a bit quick.

[vdanciu]

Not bad for the first time. Liked the drumming and the timming

[megghegg]

HELP!!! I can't get their playing out of my head!!! I'm being CREEPED out!!!

[megghegg]

OMG! The sax player knows only 2 notes! And it wasn't really a sax - it was a Kazzoo! The four people in the background should replace the four people in the band - Instant 100% improvement! LOLOLOLOLOL

[bclay1012]

holy crap that was terrible

[9611CALL]

why is everyone in the video smiling, like they're enjoying it.

its shit.

[SubBMarley]

well... that was... bad... sing like you mean it, and buy that guy an acoustic guitar.

[fakename08]

Oh God that was BAD!! If I had to hear that whole song again from this band, I'd do it with a pistol in my mouth. Everyone was horrible. Hard to point out the worst. Maybe the singer. Has anyone in this band heard of timing? Cause you are all off time! Bad, Bad and Bad! No more postings please! Ouch... my ears!

[seancrump]

ummm. horrible!!!

[PHSFootball84]

wtf singer u need more power cant hear u

[Crush1998]

drummer is sick honestly

[laxlad1995]

his name is carter not the drummer

[Crush1998]

listen buddy if he wants to get his name known...he should leave that shit band...so yea the drummer is good

[joeycupcakes12]

FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bigphot]

wtf was that

[tennisrockrchick]

EPIC FAIL!!!

[37Godislove62]

i still cant over this the singing is awful, drummer leave the band your too good!

[mpa2122]

no offense...but please never again.

[37Godislove62]

sorry but you have destroyed that song! Awful!

[seancrump]

no comment. ... ok 1. the drummer needs to upgrade to a new band.

[gutierrv]

If the rest of you had 1/2 as much enthuiasm as the drummer has, you MIGHT have something! Act like you like what you're doing. Note to singer: it ain't a church hymn honey, sing it like you mean it.

[meatmanpk]

bass player looks like the dude from the movie Super Bad. Singer is horrible. If the drummer could suck his own dick he would. Hes the only one with any talent. Hes one happy fuk!

[motohead714]

wow that singer needs to be killed

[rafaelboaventura]

Esse baterista é muito bom!!

De que lugar do Brasil você é cara?

O guitarrista deveria tentar usar um violão.

No mais parabens.DMB é sempre foda de tocar.

[mitchploeg]

you guys sound pretty damn good!!! tip though: drummer i suggest you study some rudiments, that way you can get some pretty awesome hi-hat grooves going other than that youre pretty damn good. and singer: give it some energy!!! great job guys i enjoyed it!!

[Calumgaidhealach]

far to fast!

if it was that fast then the drummer has lost all that Carter stands for...

[Sabre826]

still nice job.

sick drummer, i was wondering what kind of kit it is?

[Sabre826]

rushed.............

[NYocum0310]

The singer sounds so unenthusiastic

Way too fast

It's still good though

[tab3321]

say what you will...the drummer is sick.

[leonidasbetoxa]

drums kicked ass

sax kicked ass

the guitar was played like a robot was playing it no feeling or anything

the singer sucks...but like sucks hugely

didnt hear too much the bass but it was still good

overall excellent cover but kill the singer

[KaosRequiem]

rushed

[bulldog01209]

Pretty good.

[bflyte]

i liked it alot, personally. the female singer and the guitarist in particular gave it a unique spin. drums were a little powerful, but that's just preference, it was good work. keep 'em coming!

[Mrerikdmb]

I like the real Ants Riff better on Acoustic Guitar

[Waterboy109]

SKEET SKEET SKEET like a water hose! lol good cover tho.

[daglx]

use a click track

[MIG06]

Idk why people are knockin them, they just twisted the song a bit to add something to it, i liked it, BOA!

[loweyklo]

she singing in taiwanese?? sounds like my little sister if i gave her a bottle of cuervo

[morisgab]

Singer!-- No voices! sorry..

Drummer-- do you listen to your snare something? Put tape on it! it'll muffle it so we wont get the really bad "taaang!"

Sax-- Put some air when you play!

Guitarist-- how about a good old acoustic guitar:p

But well you've finished that song so! good luck!

[morisgab]

Sometimes* sorry

not something...

[Waterboy109]

dude i like that taang. plus it makes it sound more like carter's snare

[firefighter1502]

agreed

[L1V2R0CK]

drummers playing a little fast but pretty good

[thegoattamer]

im not so sure about your hi hat rhythm choice but the rest was mostly a success

[cephas20]

by FAR THE BEST EFFIN DRUMMER IVE SEEN DOING A COVER ON YOUTUBE MY GOD MAN

[1da8fo2]

dude holy crap that drummer is a BEAST!!

[MrReise]

Good job guys! Where are you from?!?! I play guitar in a DMB Tribute band...

[Sires83]

where are you from, id like to see that

[omgwtfpwnz0red]

"Brazilian band rehearsing in studio this title for the first time!! Lot of fun!"

[bababa39]

That was pretty good....I was entertained and you could tell everyone was having fun...thats whats important. Dave would love to see anybody showing their appreciation to his work....don't listen to the haters on here!

[ryangas1]

How about showing some respect and props. Not everyone is as good as dave but at least they have the guts, talent, and ambition to post up on youtube....more than I can say for myself and probably most people who have nothing to say but negatives. I agree though...the drummer was the most fun to watch.

[abucket888]

this video confuses me. the drummer's good tho. but what the fuck country are they in?

[AntunesdoVale]

Ae mano voces arrbentam muito, mandam ver! Po as "acusticas" tambem ficaram muito show, valeu! Batera arrepia!

[mule51]

singer = horrible

[confirmedIQ176]

that was ants marching ?

[bateraman2]

No, it was Funky hi-hat stuff.

[REinstall1]

drummer is sweet

[zarenmusic]

That one girl might as well just sit in the bass drum, she's now deaf.

[codclark]

i'm embarrassed for the drummer

[soldierxyoutub]

What was he doing?

[doitanyway123]

Whoever told Brazil about Dave should be institutionalized immediately!

[averytrooper]

umm??? There were some times through out this when it sounded good! bout 50/50 xept for the lame ass chic singer! and the dork-a-ramus bass player!

[troydmb1717]

wow, umm, what.....really?

what the hell is the girl saying, those aren't the ants marching lyrics. I love the people int he back ground sitting around listening like they are hearing something wonderful. I bet they have WONDERFUL taste in music.

[pedroperegrino]

Putz, DMB eh muito bom!

Vcs tao mandando muito bem, essa musica eh dificil pra caramba de sair!

Parabens para a vocalista, voz mto sexy!

[Yoc200]

nope

[toughbastard]

that was a fkin funny video!! i'll be laughing

for hours thinkin of you guys

[gholy5]

drummer sucks, sax doesnt do leroi justice, just stop ill pretend im not stupider

[ethantheburke]

haha wow faster and faster and faster....slow it down drummer, you're the time-keeper

[rotaryrhythm]

Drummer is less than awesome, way less. Funny how people have such different standards.

[artyec1234]

the drummers ok

[mastermusicman24]

awesome drumming bro!!! a little fast, but great consistency all throughout...

[dyslexicKING]

omg the drummer is very good but every 1 els should die

[eman22001]

great drums man...and i play! get another band.....

[goddess8993]

violin??? I suppose it's understandable if these people just couldn't find a violinist, but this song just can't be the same without violin

[reppin72rap]

ants on an electric?

[sethboytemusic]

especially the drummer

[sethboytemusic]

but hey, musicians, not bad.

[sethboytemusic]

there are songs that should only be done by the original artist. this is one of them.

[eman22001]

You done a bloody good job drummer fair play to you

[artyec1234]

the singer sucks lol hahahahah but good job to everyone eslse

[mike1192]

singer should be shot or kicked out

everyone else is great and needs to be graced with a new singer

[carterbeauford1]

hmm..singer sucked, drummer was good. !

[Harybaba]

Ok, but jesus christ the singer is worthless!!Drummers cool

[MercysHollow]

A bit slow...Drummer was great though!

[steffie224]

I love it!!!! Although, I would not have to look at the words to sing it. ;)

[drums127]

You guys wanna see a good solo Done by a KID search for homzy bopish drum solo or Ryan mccloskey drum solo

[michaelg12345]

pretty good, good drumming

[waves9310]

i like how you gave it a different sound its really good

[BigBoiJC]

slow it down...sounds pretty good!

[bcunharj]

Aposto que o baterista encheu o saco de vocês pra tocar essa música, hahaha. Olha só a cara de feliz dele...

[TonyMistry]

This is a really laid back version of the song. Its good to hear different interpretations on songs you hear all the time.

[AcousticNewGuy]

garbage

[litluminous]

Is this played in a higher key?

[cisforcookie611]

first off i would liek to say good job, the only thing i could see that was, incorrect was that the guitarist had a capo on the second fret, this song is in standard tuning, but other than that practice would make perfect

[paddydrums]

I love DMB! And I agree: keep having fun! You're all great! That's such a difficult Song (Band) to cover. And you're doing that with passion :)

[tiagobonfa]

Na boa.. eu sou baterista e já comecei a tirar essa música. Isso aí ta parecendo um axé. Cade a técnica na batera?? Toca a música com mais calma, mais FUNK/SWING. Gostei do som da sua batera. Eu tenho uma Mapex Especial Jazz e toco numa banda de Blues. (Blues na Estrada)

Eu estou apenas te dando un conselho, no youtube tem vários vídeos do Carter mostrando as músicas, aí vc vai perceber o que estou te falando.

Boa sorte com a banda

[herus02]

hahahahahaha que tezaooooooooooooooooo ahaahhahaa

fica muito diferente com voz feminina...

ta certo... ficou bom, mas a guitarra forcou!!

[guitarstime]

tempo was a bit too fast but overall it was pretty good and you guys looked like you were having fun, espcially the drummer, which is really whats its all about

[theslighteccentric]

its all about having fun, doing something you enjoy and expressing your apprecation for a band you enjoy...fxck these wanna be critics, keep havin fun

[bassman462]

the only critique really is for the bassist to find a groove that the drummer is laying down. and for the singer to not try and sing like dave, because he doesn't really have the best voice and a girl immitation isn't much better, im sure her normal voice is much better.

[RTM11745]

Please don't get me wrong you guys sound amazing!!

(Especially your drummer) Sorry if it came off negitive. Just my opinion. Post more vids.

[RTM11745]

O.K but way, way to Fast. And I agree this guys good but he's no Carter. Pretty Good in all though except for the Tempo

[bateraman2]

Don´t worry man, it was just a rehearsal...playing for fun!

[RTM11745]

Please don't get me wrong you guys sound amazing!! Sorry if it came off negitive. Just my oppion. Hope to see more!!

[mikeharmon01]

this guy is no carter...or dave or boyd...not even stefan or leroi

[bassman462]

unless you're some amazing musician don't be ignorantly critiguing.

and

stefan and leroi are amazing musicians, leroi is amazingly talented improvist for a sax player, and can do some amazing filling in. and stefan does an amazing job of keeping in the pocket and doing an amazing job of with holding himself from try to stand out. seriously listen to dreaming tree, you never know, busted stuff off the album of the same name, and raven off that album.

[ferno2]

awsome cover, fkn terrible singer, nice drumming man
