Just For Fun in Car

[bobgatzen]

3 was the #1 winner and 1 was #2 good selection d. Happy holiday season to you! Go 2012!!

[dmelv]

3 then 1

[ThunderHeads69]

Hey Bob! Sorry I'm late to the party, but I'm going to vote a) great to see you back, b) they're all awesome and c) #3, then #1, then #2! Seriously though man, great to hear another fab vid, I'll be watchin'!

[xthexemoxmuffinx]

welcome back Bob! Long time no listen :) I wish you would put some videos up of you just improvising or maybe have a bass player come in and make a video of some good ol drum'n'bass action :D Definitely #3.

[MrMrSteveC]

Can't choose, I enjoyed all three, great drumming Bob!

[BUBBAROC1]

3,1&2

[bobgatzen]

@BUBBAROC1 Good choice...it was the overall winner. Make sense huh?...#1 whatever happen... happens # 2 searching and # 3... improving #1

[RazrHack]

I think #3, I'll jump on the bandwagon here. #1 was a very close second, though.

[bobgatzen]

@RazrHack Good choice 3 was the verall winner...#1 was second. Thanks for listening and judging Razr



[bobgatzen]

@PhantomDrummerCG I recall and rely on an important message that my 6th grade teacher gave me..."Never underestimate yourself"! Simple but potent huh? Thanks for writing PD!

[bobgatzen]

@PhantomDrummerCG hmmmm... interesting idea and timely as well. I'm working on a video series that helps drummers to keep drumming. Small details like you suggested can make big differences in the drummer's attitude. Thanks PD!

[bobgatzen]

@PhantomDrummerCG Thanks BIG time PD! 1,3&2 and 3,1 and 2 are the overall winners. Just proving that of all the "Just For Fun" vids # 2 is the least chosen. Something about 3 takes and #2?? Go figure...what do think?

[adictedpunk14]

Number 3 definitely. I was feeling the groove, Amazing by the way.

[TheMetalOracle]

Such musicianship and original drumming, you're an inspiration sir, I love your approach towards music and drumming. I'm going to subscribe!

[bobgatzen]

@TheMetalOracle Wow... thanks so much MO. Hope to post a new vid this week on musicality & improvisation... nice coincidence huh? do do do do, do do do do! is this the twilight zone!

[drejadrums]

Yeee, the drum whisperer is back! Bob, i have to be honest and say that i don't really get this kind of music, but after listening to all three, I'll go with no. 3. Looking forward seeing your new videos.

[bobgatzen]

@drejadrums So far #3 is the overall winner... typical of all the other "Just For Fun" videos...#1 & #3 over poor old worn out #2... wonder why? Thanks for listening. The music is just a simple background to play to...I wrote it on Logic 9.

[epodcam]

Hey Bob, for me it'd be take 3 then 2 then 1, all great with their own feel, but my head was bobbing most on number 3 :) Love the vids, always learn something!

[Superfro2]

Cool concept! Great playing!! My pick is #3.

[ivak4eto]

I like 2 a lot...btw, I'm a pianist that loves playing drums and maybe that's why I like a lot your tuning lessons! Thanks for the info and I admire your philosophy about music in general!

[tamiryk]

i have noticed lately that listening to some songs while driving makes them sound better!

i mostly listen to metalcore and while driving the engine gives some sort of bass background effect that really fills up the void in some songs and make them sound even better.

[theVulcanGuy]

I'll take the 2nd, with a side of the 3rd.

[kijkenify]

1,3,2

[bobgatzen]

@kijkenify It's always 1 or 3... I'm amazed that #2 takes are almost always...a lost, forgotten child! Thanks for listening K!

[kijkenify]

@bobgatzen Haha I dunno It's just not my thing haha

[ZZDROSS]

Hi..cool. Thanks for sharing! Nr 3

[Who2Are1You]

3 blew every other one out of the water.

[bobgatzen]

@Who2Are1You Teah...#3 seems to be the overall winner....let's keep voting!

[TheColbles2009]

Hey I have a question, you know dennis chambers right? well if you do, then do you know why he tunes his toms so high? and do you know the system he uses on his bass drum? thanks

[bobgatzen]

@TheColbles2009 Dennis is a close friend. Not sure but my best guess is he likes the "feel" (rebound) at the stick. Drummers often go for "Feel" over "Sound". However, a great feeling drum almost always generates a good sound. They go hand in hand!

[jannnne123]

Wow, very cool idea. I would put the order in 3 1 2. This video inspired me hugely!

[bobgatzen]

@jannnne123 Thanks jannne!

[TheColbles2009]

When is the BOA coming back out? I been saving my self from buying anything else til the boas come out



[bobgatzen]

@TheColbles2009 Not until 2012...only the peactice pedal is available at this time

[FlamEffect]

#3 ... then 2, then 1. Make more videos!!!

[bobgatzen]

@FlamEffect Ahhhh # 2 finally gets some positioning!! I think #2 takes are purely psychological... "I have one more chance to salvage myself!!!!"

[bobgatzen]

@FlamEffect I'm working on it FM... got 3 new ones cookin'!!

[FlamEffect]

@bobgatzen ahhhhhh SWEET new stuff!!!! Cant wait!!! We have been dying with out BG videos!!

[docterblack]

#2 i like the best, its the most funky!

[Phdinyourdemise]

i actually think 3,1,2

i just the love soloin on 3

[bobgatzen]

@Phdinyourdemise Oh yeah...#3 is winning... I'm still holding out on my fave take, don't want to influence you guys!! Thanks for listening pyd

[ianbhtube]

[bobgatzen]

[JORDANROUBIQUE]

youre camera man is amazing. i think i remember you saying somthing about your wife doing it. if so give her my props man! long live the kind of drums!

thats you bob!

-jordan.

[rolandvp]

Absolutely innovative and coupled with your "unique style?"...I'd have to say all of them. however if backed in a corner to choose, funny, I picked 3...2...1 ;) Hey, I may not know much, but when a "hook" hits? that's all it takes for me. Another great tool Mr. Gatzen and thanks!! Man? Ala Gatzen get's busy! ;)

[bobgatzen]

@rolandvp Nice ideas Roland...thanks for taking the time to listen and to criticize...it's goos stuff!

[michaelc383]

#3 Love the arrangement, and tasteful musicality! A fun one!

[andyfurr]

I like 1

[bobgatzen]

@andyfurr Isn't it strange that out of all the "Just For Fun" videos # 2 is always the looser...why?

[Jeffo787]

very interesting work. great job

[crazy8sdrums]

It's not my place to judge a Master at the craft. Instead, I'll just tell you that all 3 are great. Your playing is amazing as always, and you pull the nicest sounds from your drums and cymbals. So musical and inspiring!

I look forward to your upcoming series of new videos!

Namaste!

[rolandvp]

@crazy8sdrums Very well put!! However.........my novice ear has never been clear, being drawn to "the hook" at 9 there was fear....with no support I must report, the task ahead drew blanks instead. The "privacy" I needed, when sticks and throne met not alone, I began the air-drums14 I curtailed getting stoned. With the long journey ahead, I became instead, obsessed with wanting the same. At 52 I won't be blue, it IS what it IS, where the hell is my glue. time to rebuild! :)

[mace142]

number 3 by far!!!!!! so much energy, passion, and great licks are on this one (1 and 2 are awesome but 3 is the best!). btw its great to see you on here again, i speak for all of us when i say you have been missed. we love your videos, drumming, and creative addition to the industry!

[rolandvp]

@mace142 See? Now that's what I'm talkin' about. Mr Mace? you can speak for me ALL day long! ;)

[plemyk]

1,3 then 2.

[bobgatzen]

@plemyk Going in that direction...I'll post my results later thanks for listening p

[plemyk]

Yeah!!!!!........the return.Bring 'em on.

[Velvetdrummer]

[Kevbox2008]

Hey, Bob is BACK!! I was just watching one of your videos yesterday. I remember you said you'd be gone for a bit. It's good to see/hear you've been in the wood shed workin' out. (I'd almost pay money to see some of that raw footage.)

As for this one -- I like #2 but I'm REALLY diggin' #3. So, it's #3 for me. Thanks for the upload, Bob!!! :^)

[c0d3x001]
