Yanic Bercier drumsolo @ Montreal drum fest 2007

[MrSPINKYMcGEE]

this guy is obviously talented, but the only thing that makes this a solo is the fact that hes playing alone. lol This is alot more like a drum part to a song. no dynamics

[Scipiuz]

Mike Portnoy? Who??? This is fucking insane!

[TheAntoine007]

I love that part 0:00 to 6:06

[KutViZ]

5:21 I can do that with an uzi...

[KutViZ]

4:09 sickest shit ever

[Crnicelad]

Sick!

[Mccritical80]

terrible...novice at best

[staswin]

Did you pay to reply?

[cavoglavi]

why is he so tense? chill out man...

[laughingdudelol]

4:48 i love that part

[Ton3Zon3]

Part at 2:27 to 3:21 is just INSANE. Lot of polyrythms in it.

[broodkiller]

@Ton3Zon3 thats easy, he has 3 brains... :P

[THEpearldrummer]

[oOBlackAngel95Oo]

Cool :)

[oliviasnowlong]

He seemed to me relatively uncomfortable on his kit that night...

The start was his feeling of the kit and how things just weren't right...

He even touches his highhat around 2:30 to 2:40, an obvious sign something was amiss...

He is an excellent drummer that I just stumbled upon 3 days ago.

I've been playing for fifteen years and this guy has climbed my ratings book incredibly!!

His kit reminds me of Lars Ulrich's of Metallica, the four-main toms, double-bass... classic set-up, really awesome!

[Pariah186]

Absolutely superb set. Drummer fans may also want to check out Dave Lombardo playing 'Flicka' from the Modern Drummer Festival 2000, and the Mikkey Dee drum solo. Well worth it.

[Puppybutcher]

the beginning kind of reminds of someone testing out the drum option on a keyboard. sweet solo though

[SKunKeD666]

@Puppybutcher i think this is to make the crowd familiar with the sound of each piece of the drumkit :)

[Puppybutcher]

@SKunKeD666 oooooooh of course! Silly me

[BigChieff]

de la pure bombe

[setherscan92]

I've known this guy for like eight months and i've yet to geet him to play for me...sigh

[FimbulTar777]

if i were you, i would get on that... take lessons while you are at it. haha. i would kill to know him, let alone hear him play live. his drumming would defibrillate me after a heart attack

[setherscan92]

well i'm a guitar player, but the drummer in my band took lessons from him. He also is building a recording studio in his house. It's pretty neat actually.

[seniornicholas]

@setherscan92 Funny, I take private lessons from him. Lets form a band!

[mynameisdelo]

its an amazing drumsolo by a amazing drummer

[murraytaylor123]

'Linguistical' isn't even a word... feigned intelligence fails.

[gullit123]

in QUO Vadis he plays a lot more than this , this was soooooooo boring

[metalheadsam989]

This is just boring...lol

[slipknotsaw]

HAHA, Neil Peart sucks. And yes it was a little inspired by Neil Peart :D

[Milossvinja96]

He's good like a band drummer. But he isn't good at solo drumming........

[8cucu8]

A little bit inspired by Neil Peart!

[DarkLouk]

2:45 bring it !!!

[jtob69]

um is it just me or does that sound like nick pierces solo song?

[themuffinman2345678]

I just want to add something... I saw Quo Vadis with the new line-up in Quebec City and he's quite more precise than Patrice. I think he lacks endurance a bit compare to him, but we can't denied that Patrice has a lot more power than him...

[Nocterion]

Yannic is way better. It's a shame he left QV :( Anyway, Patrice is good tho but I still prefer Yannic's energy and kick sound :p

[themuffinman2345678]

He is a good drummer and I respect him a lot for what he've done with Quo Vadis, but it's definitely not a good solo musician. The only thing he prove it's that he is able of doing single strokes...fast

[bearblaster420]

and i agree that u deffinately r retarded. ur little virgin ears can't keep track of what he's playing lol

[FllaviX8]

you amuse me ... clown

[PsychoPathologist420]

You are a fucking dumbass. That man is possibly one of the best drummers in the world.

[FllaviX8]

liste to some more music

[PsychoPathologist420]

Take your own advice, also, fuck off.

[FllaviX8]

Great, your own cultural standard is surfacing through your linguistical expression. Metal is the law, eh?

[PsychoPathologist420]

Nah mate, Yanic Bercier is just one of the best drummers in the world, and if you aren't gonna admit that shit, you are a retard.

[FllaviX8]

I will admit the possibilty that he's one of the best drummers in this whole great world if you admit that you are one of the greatest retards.

[PsychoPathologist420]

Hey, an IQ of 115 ain't that bad in this world. I'll admit I am one of the biggest retards in the world if you admit to suck more dick than anyone else in the world. Tbh I don't want to go on flaming you via youtube, but you're such a bell-end, I might keep it going for a bit.

Here's an idea, if you are just gonna slabber about the drummer in the video, why even bother watching. You obviously crave some spice girls shit if you don't acknowledge Yancic Bercier as a sweet drummer.

[FllaviX8]

Ok man, you're right, he's the greatest drummer in the world. Ignorance is bliss. 115 is low.

[PsychoPathologist420]

Alright-y then, man. You win. lol.

[sweetqc]

omg du double sur son hi-hat

[mrcooki3]

seriously fierté quebecoise!

bravo keep drumming like a beast!

[duromega]

Go Yanic, Go Yanic, Go Yanic go go!

Beautiful drum set, beautiful solo, beautiful cymbals :)

[SKunKeD666]

dude i set up this very drum on this very stage and i guess this is his normal setup!

exceptionnal performance by Yanic!

[metalmaster666999]

Ce Gars LA C'Est Une Fièrté québécoise !!! Il Est Vraimentt Bon !! C'est Le Meilleur Que J'ai Vu !!!!

[KHarvey666]

Uh, no he doesn't. That's his regular kit right there, dude. He's always used that many cymbals. In the earlier days he only didn't have the 9" tom at the start of his kit. But other than that he's always had that much shit to work with.

[drakore244]

i dont mean that, i know he always had that much cymbal, i just ment that he plays them more then normal.

[drakore244]

he uses a lot more cymbal in this then his usual drumming, but its still awesome, but so is pretty well anything he does.
