He's been the SNL house-band drummer like....forever, he's awesome. And he's terrific on Live From Daryl's House. Haters shouldn't be watching You tube.
I heard him on live from Darryl Hall's house, he sounded great to me. Maybe, just maybe ilovesolfege has no idea what he is talking about...! Plus, if he drums like ilovesolfege...I mean...shit...then why are you here listening to it...? Just a thought.
just because this drummer does not show off it does'nt mean he is bad, who the fuck are you you stupid peice of shit listen, drummers are supposed to keep time Shawn pelton keeps very well drummers like vergil donati are big fucking show offs that just use music to make people aww in amazement, but that is not what drumming is about you stupid shit read about minimalism ilovesolfege you stupid peice of shit
@Molopozotion dude, sorry but you cant tell one person to not bash one drummer while you bash another. that doesnt make sense. virgil has worked tirelessly day and night for hours at a time to reach a level of drumming only some can dream about. true people shouldnt hate shawn pelton because he is a simple drummer, buy you shouldnt hate virgil because he is a technically skilled drummer either. follow your own logic. virgil and shawn are badass in their own right, and deserve a lot of respect.
No its ok most drummers don't get it, they keep buying modern drummer magazine and practicing drum solos, so when i need a drum solo i'll call you buddy ok... but for now, Shawn Pelton's the man !!
@checkabreak Preach it brotha...nobody respects the pocket these days from the looks of it. Preference is on chops rather than simplicity and groove. We must move on w/ this ignorance lol. Cheers!
Dude's got some great gear there and knows how to get the most out of it to maximize his sound. Pelton's been on hundreds of recordings and on SNL for almost two decades, so he knows his stuff.
@ilovesolfege have you heard him on the Renee Fleming's "Dark Hope"? hear that record. The drums are perfect with flawless mastering. it just sounds too good
I really enjoyed the drumming on The Buddy Guy Ge Smith Live at Legends DVD!
Great solid playing and nice dynamics.A fine example of less is more sounding great!

Pelton is all groove. If you can`t hear that... don`t know what to tell you. One of the most dynamic players out there.
