Danny Carey playing along to Jambi

[panayiotis131]

Legent has that a guy in the audience yelled in awe "Je-sus Cr-ist!" and a bearded guy next to him replied "Later dude, I'm listening to Danny fuckin Carey on drums, can't you see?"

[MrDennie666]

best drummer ever

[jay58193]

the only reason not to like this is because its FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE TO DUPLICATE THIS HUM,ANS DRUMMING SKILLS anybody can half ass dany carey but try playing exact is very impossible atleast for me

[22zson]

Me makes patterns up to songs that most people couldn't even play drums to. His pauses and timing are beautiful. I love how he glues together every fill in with a couple hits on the ride or the snair.

[cjk310]

6 people should just pull the trigger and get it over with. sad.

[longboard1922]

i went to this sick as shit, my biggest regret is not meeting him afterwards because of it. greatest drummer

[jsapish]

kick ass danny........johnny sap

[cloud1209]

Mozart on drums.

[slitherlock]

to the thumbs up that "got" what I was trying to say with the 90% thing...thank you. there is some hope still in the world for those who do not take everything literally. to the dr. seuss lectures I got and otherwise wikipedia groupies please do us a favor and all move to some desolate island where you can analyze each other and everything around you until you die a miserable and confusing death.

[slitherlock]

@510rob your life is nonsense.

[MikeWJones1497]

6 divided by 690 = 11.5.

Every 11.5 people on this Youtube video will dislike it. Please help the cause.

Dislike Free Youtube.org

[pinktool1]

Noone, Noone is Like Tool. Very Few If Any Are even on The Same Level. The Skill, Care & Perfection of Their Craft is Stunning. If One Was to Think About it TOO Long, the SpaceCraft Would Come Down & Beam You to a New dimension & NOT give You a Map!

[bom2]

god i can't wait to see tool again.

[MultiMrMuffinman]

I hate people who just click dislike without reason !!how can u dislike this ? probably some U2,COLDPLAY,BEYONCE,GAGA fans they are doing this :)

[strgazr16]

He is amazingly talented!

[b03y]

2:40 I'd be scared to be sticking my head where he did haha

[cheaptrades]

this is what years of LSD use can do for you, but of course if you don't believe me you can take all your albums, all your tapes and all your CD's and burn 'em...................

[dangleberry9628]

@cheaptrades Bill Hicks :D

[TerranMeUp]

46 and 2

[debateSlayer]

sexy ass at 2:42

[rockdahaus]

@debateSlayer Hmmm... you´re sexual selection sucks... my oppinion ;-)

[debateSlayer]

@rockdahaus im sorry what did u say, im too busy cumming all over the place to the sexy ass at 2:42

[cloalxxx]

Danny Carey took a dump and named it "Chuck Norris".

[sugawowsers]

@cloalxxx fucking awesome!!!!!!!!

[micjohmck]

Can anyone explain what's going on at 3:27? I can't play along at that point...

[rockdahaus]

@micjohmck I dont realy know, but it looks like a paradiddle with the accents on kick with cymbal. Or maybe an open five stroke roll?

[SuperBeamin]

the crazy time signatures feel natural to me, im a piano/keys player its like drums at your finger tips.. love it. piano=string instrument, but also a percussion

[bleedfinger]

props to Jeff Ocheltree for the making the drums sound oh so sweet!

[wesjru1z]

I wonder how hitting the guy's head at 2:42 would've sounded in the song

[jimbobanalbeats]

Fucking sick.

[GuitarMassacre]

I know this starts out in 9/8 but can't figure it out when it breaks down

[RICbass78]

@GuitarMassacre the whole song is in 9/8 except for the guitar solo, which is in 6/4. The subdivisions of the 9/8 are different in different parts of the song though... and of course, this being Tool, there are many parts where one instrument subdivides it differently from another.

[GuitarMassacre]

@RICbass78 ah, thanks

[king7392]

Super man



[dholano]

How the hell does he even remember all this, much less play it. Man is a freaking drum GOD!!!!

[mikeythespiky12]

the beat this guy plays at 1:06, you cant find a lotta people that can get that beat right away. its off beat, or odd time signature or sumthing idk

[bullmilk]

@mikeythespiky12

Danny plays drums to a coordinated design or pattern at times. It makes for a very random looking style at times, but incredibly difficult to pull off.

[Insomnomniac]

@mikeythespiky12 This song is actually in a quite regular time signature (9/8), but, as per TooL usual, they made the accents all different from the regular. In that beat, the accents are on one, three, five, and seven. In 9/8, they are usually one, four, and seven.

It isn't necessarily the time signature, it's the feel that makes TooL so awesome.

[jerrygsheldon]

6 dislikes - are you kidding me - what the hell do you think kind of music do those 6 people listen to?

[dshapiro12394]

i've been drumming for about five years. how the fuck did he just play that

[lotrojoe]

he has massive arms...

[Staticfactory]

It's rare to witness one who is truly a master of their craft. Few can compare to Mr. Carey.

[drtjrzdrummer]

all I can do, is, lol

[Tiberiusformal]

aww Daney Carey you Rascal! Love your music, THANK YOU!!! 

[Tiberiusformal]

aww Daney Carey you Rascal! Love your music, THANK YOU!!!

[slitherlock]

Danny uses the 90% of the brain other humans don't.

[RussianAssassin21]

@slitherlock That 10% thing is a myth, we use all of our brain for the most part.

[lastofmany1]

@RussianAssassin21 How have you been anit-joke chicken I haven't seen you in awhile.

[MikeWJones1497]

@slitherlock

If Danny isn't human then he must be...*GASP!*

[510rob]

@slitherlock

that 10% thing is nonsense.

Mr Carey probably has exceptionally high neuronal density particularly in his cerebral peduncle connections of the mesencephalic regions which interconnect and relay upper motor cortical activities with both the cerebellum and the basal ganglia formations.

In less technical terms, he is a well syncopated drummer.

[is00ez]

@slitherlock just so you know, unless you have mental disabilities, you use most of your brain most of the time, the 10% thing is a common (painful) misconception

[DoctorBlissphd]

@is00ez

One uses 100% of the physical brain. But, individuals exist that seem to do more with the brain than others. It is theoretically possible for neural networks to work more efficiently than many brains actually do.

[is00ez]

@slitherlock i just realized someone already said it, sorry

[scoot477]

if danny grew a beard i swear he would be jesus!

[chadlywick1985]

What a bad ass!



[0NauGhT0]

no man wearing short shorts has ever owned this hard...Danny Carey for the motherf*ckin win

[Smaugren]

@0NauGhT0 They only look like short shorts because he's so tall.

[yaerius]

@BeforeItsFarTOOLate de gustibus non est disputandum ;)

I'm not saying I don't like Tool. I honor them. but it's just not my style.

[000MidnightSun]

shine on you crazy diamond! woops wrong song... i mean, shine on forever, benevolent sun! i wonder if he ever forgets how to play some songs.

using his third eye quite well!

[karizz187]

so good makes me want to slap my mama

[PRpitohead]

Did my eyes deceive me, or at 2:34 did an elderly man volunteer to become another one of Danny's cymbals?

[pi45]

@PRpitohead lol thats his drum tech..

[prideofalion]

if you dislike this you are an entirely different kind of TOOL

[Smaugren]

I was there when Danny played this. It was kind of hard not to break down in tears,

[pi45]

@Smaugren can i touch u?? i am not worthy of ur holiness..

[loomhancok]

yaerius, might I ask, if your not a TooL fan, then what music do you listen to? because to me, if your a rock fan and not atleast interested and into some of TooLs music, then your not a fan of rock music, just saying

[thricehi]

@loomhancok very true u cant like rok without liking tool

[thricehi]

@loomhancok very true u cant like rock without liking tool

[mrkb2k]

cymbals sound friggin awesome. *crashhhh* paiste!

[speraza53]

what songs he played that night???

[alessandrozerbone]

Is he still doing clinics now? I must go to one of them

[liquid49286]

lol, what a chode

[jules420girl]

@liquid49286 Are you referring to Danny Carry as chode?

[jules420girl]

@liquid49286 are you referring to Danny Carey as a chode?

[lolvids2]

is that a big roto tom?

[pi45]

@lolvids2 yes a 12inch

[lolvids2]

cool

[iliketoplaydrums77]

saw them live december 11 2007, I was in seventh grade.. to this day it was the most phenomenal thing I've ever seen...

[alessandrozerbone]

Tool is so complex, yet so simple...yet so complex.

[gtlevin101]

so fucking power

[Hammerofthegods86]

that chode is Jeff Ocheltree don't disrespect he is doing his job. He is a very season Drum tech just look him up.

[LosHumildesSV]

lol 2:35

[MrBallen38]

What was the chode doing to the drum set?

[defsownds]

public display of godliness

[mjfewer]

Ezemdi is a moron

[elgordon22]

Aside from the initial training Danny says he doesn't play/practice without the band. Key to their undisputed unified material.

[novusordum]

lMAO Drum porn to me too xD

[elgordon22]

@novusordum AGREED!

[napkinshower]

LOL look at the BIG breath he takes at 5:14! INTENSE!

[ezemdi]

Dont fall for it guys!!

This is C.G.I

There is no way a human being can do that!!

[McQuads87]

5:00??? Single handed roll?

[kingspen2]

@McQuads87 yes

[Damouis]

@McQuads87 I think he does it with his bass drum pedals but im not sure....

[timbondnz]

how the fuck does he make it look so goddam easy??

[spankxj]

pple who dislike this have no idea wat talent is, wat a buch of fags

[SnizzPants]

Wouldn't of it been cool if he started tapping that dudes head and it made a cowbell sound? Or like a ride, and used it while he was playing? I think so, I think so.

[tehGmoney]

9/8 with the bass drum doing 4/4 in the beginning is so sweet

[Cyc1on3]

this is basically a Tool concert. This would be awsum to see.

[prAna530]

5:42 is one of my favorite rolls in any tool song.

[prAna530]

Jeff is a brave man...

[wagsterbrown4]

5 people have never seen porn

[crimsonakd]

4 dislikes lol what morons.

[enemyyv]

I was in the second row right in front of him during this. It was unforgettable. Aloke was amazing

[VeNeM999]

4 people tried to play like Danny and had seizures rendering themselves retarded

[richardblabla]

@VeNeM999 stop trying to get fucking thumbs up. it pisses me off

[VeNeM999]

@richardblabla i hope you recover from that seizure

[xSasonIsFirex]

holy fuck......

[ChuteSpades]

better than porn. I can do porn. I can't do this ever, any time i think i can learn, I remember i'm better at porn. wish i could. wish it all away awesome drum tech

[ChuteSpades]

better than porn. I can do porn.  I can't do this ever, any time i think i can learn, I remember i'm better at porn. wish i could. wish it all away

[goro71913]

You have to be super talented to play the drums like this guy. I mean the guitar is tough too but the drums you have to have good coordination. Great drummer

[groovecontrol23]

Those 4 who gave a thumbs down must have no balls and are scared of Danny! DRUM PORN INDEED :D

[FORTY848]

i love how the kick skins and slightly transparent

[Maxmc7]

playing along?? are you retarded

[grotesquefeind]

@Maxmc7 ?

[jeffScaldwell2]

Was this at KU?

[davhu11]

like a well oiled machine.

[FORTY848]

@davhu11 a danny machine

[29nickoli]

@davhu11 could not have put that any better.

[getachefupya]

and yet it fits so well in to the song without fucking the groove. His drumming is legendary.

[YAKinaJAR]

Ive been watching a load of "top ten drummer videos" and its depressing me cause Danny doesnt even make it on any of the lists yet douche bags like lars ulrich keep coming first i had just about giving up hope for humanity when i stumbled across this video and found comments from people whos brains are not mush and listen to good music and are able to spot talent.Its refreshing to see people listening to good music like tool and not falling under the imperialistic yoke of musical oppression.

[twiztidlestat]

@YAKinaJAR

Jordinson makes alot of number 1s too.

[heriticsfist]

this drum line is complex as fuck

[mrmysteryword]

im not much of a drummer but wish i could play the guitar wah part! love it!

[PineAway515]

i wish he played some of those fills on the album, a lot of the snare rolls he does in the earlier half of the vid aren't on the cd but they made me cum in my pants

[vrednie]

Thanks for uploading this. I'm going to go practice now ;-)

[nirewolf0]

one of the best drummers alive today imho He elevates drumming into an art form.

Amazing song too, one of my favs by tool <3

[luke98959895]

danny is a beast!

[McTowelie]

Danny is Kobe with sticks.

[ryanosaur2000]

@McTowelie except he is not a cunt.

[WeKnowYoureThere]

@McTowelie  Except Danny doesn't fuck up when it counts

[patriota54]

dude is you think that Danny carey is really good so you should defenitly check out Katy Elwell the drummer of the Fantastic band lizZard,

write" LizZard drummer Katy, live clip of 'Venus' "on youtube and judge by your self

[JFman00]

This is what should accompany the sun rising every morning.

[yaerius]

I am not a big Tool fan, but one claiming to know at least a bit of drumming cannot dislike this. great performance.

[co7wa77]

@yaerius

You don't have to know shit about drumming to figure out this is great. Danny is the best rock drummer around.

[tahuti6]

@yaerius Not being a big tool fan... does not compute... cannot comprehend... not possible... logical breakdown.... malfunction malfunction... ppstststt fhfhwereererrr BOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!

[yaerius]

I'm not a big Tool fan, but one claiming to know at least a bit of drumming cannot dislike this. great performance.

[yaerius]

I'm not a big Tool fan, but if one claiming to know at least a bit of drumming cannot dislike this. great performance.

[IguitarkidI]

2:40 it looks like he just hit that guy with the cymbal D:

[mee14x]

whoa there i listen to metallica and megadeth and i think this song kicksass and i will admit i love metallica but danny is the most kickass drummer ever.

[SteveFutureMusic]

Danny is a good drummer don't get me wrong but he still fails in comparison to guys like Dennis Chambers, Neil Peart, Akira Jimbo, Terry Bozzio, Mike Portnoy, and of course the mighty Virg Donati

The only reason people think he's so good is because they've never heard progressive music before so of course to them listening to Korn, Limp Bizkit, Slipknot, and then a band like Tool it sounds incredible even though it's all quite simple stuff really

[IchMagSechs]

@SteveFutureMusic HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH FAG. really hes much better than akira jimbo nd terry bozzio

[imapisces23]

@SteveFutureMusic you clearly know nothing, his beats are absolutely insane, hardly anyone can play them exactly how he does in some of his songs

[erikimba]

@SteveFutureMusic chambers and bozzio will put them on same level, peart a little behind, portnoy like 10 years behind, jimbo will be a step forward cause the independence needed for latin fusion he plays, and finally donati will be like more foreward than the rest and a little bit on top, and i agree tool sounds incredible awesome fantastic marvelous but yes its quite simple indeed.

[needlearmor]

@erikimba you're missing out if you base goodness on technical ability! what about that stuff they are playing. you know...the music??

[erikimba]

@needlearmor yes i pretty much know the music of all drummers mentioned i am musician, megalomaniac, fan of tool, industrial designer, painter, artist, etc, i am just trying to be fair, i consider approach, technique, years of playing and what they´ve reach on that time, and many more, i can easily say i´ve heard all the albums of these drummers and i am a fan of all of them but trying to be reallistic what i said early, that is my final decision.

[M3GTR]

@SteveFutureMusic Do me a favor, go listen to Ticks and Leeches, the Grudge, and Aenima. Then come tell me he doesn't compare with Bozzio or Portnoy.

[absolutehail]

@SteveFutureMusic Danny writes stuff Portnoy couldn't dream of. He's not the most technical, but in my eyes, he's the best.

[rockdahaus]

@SteveFutureMusic I don´t get it, only complicate music and drumbeats are good?

M. Jackson´s Smooth Criminal is simple, but awesome!

Metallica: Sad But True is simple, but awesome!

Porcupine Tree: Sound Of Muzak is simple, but awesome!

Oceansize: Catalyst is simple but awesome!

The musical context is important! Not how complicate the drumbeat is.

[HotShotR92J]

@rockdahaus Amen 2 tht brother..I cudnt agree wid u more!!! I hav a really hard tym tryin 2 convince my band mates of this lol :P

[Th3Congregation]

@SteveFutureMusic You obviously know nothing about drumming.

[FlavoredDeath]

@SteveFutureMusic

*More hate mail*

lol

[robitolo1]

@SteveFutureMusic theres alot of prog bands out there if you havent noticed.. danny is equal if not better than the prog dummers out there..

[space7851]

maybe there next album next year will be awesome

[rdaidsicoghoelafd]

the fact of the matter is metallica sold out, and tool will never sell out. and goddamn danny is so fucking incredible

[semiLivedj]

I dont see anything great.

[myusskyuss]

@semiLivedj listen to any of their albums and you would. if you LISTENED to tool you wouldnt say that. this guy is so complex you dont have the brain or the ears to appreciate it

[Fourchette22]

Over 1000 reasons to like TOOL, and the reason No. 1 is Danny Carey!!!

[saf9mm]

Not to piss off all you fans, but dont you ever find Tools songs to be a little, well, boring? I mean, they drag on for a long time. I often find myself trying to listen to them, but i just get bored! Its my opinion, and Danny Carey is awesome

[nejikid]

@saf9mm well if u relize that their songs have meaning, and u just straight listen insted of multi tasking while listening, ull get the tru feeling of the song and the messages they are portraying. i once listened to them while sleeping. trippy ass dream bro im serious... i felt like i was in one of their music vids O.O

[myusskyuss]

@saf9mm dude you suck, just stop. i agree you might have to be a fan to really like 10,000 days which is the album this song is off of. BUT how can you say undertow and aenema and lateralus are boring? HOW? theres no helping you, its too late for that-stick to whatever crap it is you listen to...and the answer to your stupid question is, well; HELL FUCK NO ARE YOU CRAZY?!

[xDr360x]

@myusskyuss cheers to that bro!

[Tahkayun]

@myusskyuss Wings 1 and 2 are probably the most moving songs I've ever heard. They get me every time. Every time I sit down and really LISTEN to them, I get teary.

[Tahkayun]

@saf9mm Some people just don't have the attention span to listen to these long songs. I'm not trying to pick a fight with you or anything, so please don't take that the wrong way. Personally, I love just sitting back and just submerging myself into the music. I can sit there for hours just listening to Tool.

[gbiffle16]

FUCK!!!!!!!!!!

[EweLewz]

Nice impromptu performance (notice how little he uses the left bass drum). Incredible artist. Arguably the best power drummer out there. Not even close to the album version, yet in sync regardless.

[nate316itaindubk]

Love how He's wearin the KU Gear!

[robertojaen]

@nate316itaindubk He is a former student of KU

[bojanks15]

I went to high school where hes playing, really wish I woulda known about it beforehand.

[SlappaDeBassMon]

I would have cracked up if at 2:34 when that tech came in front, danney carey used the guys head as part of his fill

[Kelavmeister]

Go Jeff, go!!!! Fix that mic! This was awesome... Wish I coulda seen this

[DCH13000]

2 thumbs down, eh? Those Bieber fans...

[chrisnealxxx]

like all else with Tool, Danny Carey plays at another level incomparable to all other contemporary bands close to this genre

[nagol1027]

TOOL is the fucking shit

[walkabout990]

I like metallica and tool...not mutually exclusive...but I AM NOT the one that gave this a "thumbs down". Repeat AM NOT...
