  • Kenny looks like a big douch!

  • Why dont you guys look at the comments you're posting. None of you are famous and none of get the point of this video go take music 101 and learn something in life so your mother wont regret that abortion she never had.

  • If you claim to play drums and don't know who Kenny is then stop claiming immediately.

  • Comment removed

  • Kennys great, but I still prefer Doug "Cosmo" Clifford, bass player is great as well, but I still want Stu Cook in Johns band . as good as he sounds, somethings missing

  • never heard of him........... and im a drummer.

  • @TheZep9 haha me either

  • Kenny Aronoff?

    I think there's a reason why I know the name Jimmy Sullivan and not "Kenny Aronoff".

    And not because Jimmy died.

  • @karinosai I'm going to assume the reason is that you're not a drummer.

  • @avedisdrummer989 I, personally, am not. But I asked two drummers I know if they do, and one told me no. He was the better and more experienced of the two. Don't act like being a drummer means you automatically know drummers and everything about drums.

  • @karinosai I'm not acting like anything, it definitely is not automatic. But just like anything else, if you take drumming seriously, you do your homework. Just like if you played baseball and didn't know who Derek Jeter was. Guess what, other baseball players would probably think you were an idiot. Kenny Aronoff has been a huge name in drumming for decades. Look up his discography. The artists he has worked with make AX7 look like a joke. It's sad that Jimmy's name is more socially prevalent.

  • @karinosai Jimmy was great though, and it's sad that we lost him. Don't get me wrong on that. I'm not trying to taint his memory at all. He really was an excellent drummer. He just did not have the history and the versatility that demands the respect Aronoff deserves.

  • @avedisdrummer989 You can't really speak to the versatility of a man who only lived to 28 and worked mainly with one band for the mass majority of his career.

  • @karinosai Maybe I assume the Rev would have done more had he lived longer, he was a great talent. But that only helps my argument. Someone who spent probably 4-5 years (Jimmy) in the spotlight gains more public recognition than an artist who has proven his worth over a span of literally decades (Aronoff). That seems a little backwards to me, that's all I'm saying. Just like I'm sure you know Travis Barker, but have no clue who Art Blakey is. As a passionate drummer, I find that sad and scary.

  • @avedisdrummer989 Yeah... No. I had to google Travis Barker. He looks like a fuck. Blink-182 is a pussy band in general.

  • @karinosai alright.

  • @avedisdrummer989 I now wish I still was ignorant of his existence.

  • @karinosai Been a drummer for 40 years now and I have never heard of him either.

  • @TheJer1963 then u r a dumbass. he has been around obviously you have not

  • @TheJer1963 Don't google him. You'll regret it..

  • @TheJer1963 thats probably one of the reasons no one has heard of you !

  • seems like the one who sings hotel california

    

  • A lot of really fuckin stupid comments here... Kenny Aronoff is one of the best pro drummers alive. He talks the talk but he walks the walk! If you asked the top professional drummers Kenny would be on the top of their lists... He is a bad ass MO FO on a drum kit

  • john z got a stupid drummer , this ain't no bayou bluesman he should be drumming with poison not with the Mark Twain band

  • don't like guys like him. he kicks ass by nature? i mean, come on, that's ridiculous.

    there are a lot of drummers who kick his ass for breakfast. and they don't need nature. he loves people who care about his work as much as he does?... that's just stupid. -.-'''

  • Comment removed

  • It's a pity someone wants to interview people like this....! I've seen Paul McCartney being more humble..

  • ??? False advertising lol wtf

  • this guy looks like a white emo MC Hammer

  • @ben6killer And your problem is???? Who cares what he looks like, what color his skin is, where he came from? The man is a great drummer. He does his job & he does it well. Fogerty wouldn't have hired him if he wasn't one of the best. If looks are your only criteria for a musician, you must be tone deaf!

  • most saught after drummer in the business KENNY ARONOFF he must be good how about the guy from April WIne man that cat can bang the sticks cant think of his name

  • I don't think he's that good

  • chris slade is better

  • @MrGLM1915 No freaking way dude! Cris Slade couldn't carry Kenny's sticks!

  • He's th best in th business she sais ????.

    I think Kenny would have something to say about that - but won't of course.

    He's a damn good drummer no risk, but ummm, there's so many to. At least this guys pretty decent, not some show pony, just a good solid drummer with flair.

  • Everyone must check out this new band Kenny A lpayed with SWITCHBLADE GLORY!! I just found out about it and it's simply BADASS!! His drum sound/tone is amazing - he teamed up with Andy Johns who also mixed/engineered John Bohnam, Alex Van Halen, Chad Smith... This is a must get on Itunes!!! I have not stopped listening to it:)

  • who the fck does this guy think he is led zepps drummer would definitly kick his ass all the way back to the rock he crawled out from

  • @davidfrazerlewis1 Well, I don't think John Bonham, Led Zepplin's original drummer would have improved Fogerty's sound one tiny little bit. Bonham died in 1980. Apart from that, you can't compare Fogerty's Cajun Country Rock to Led Zep's heavy rock. Two different types of music, requiring different styles of playing. Each is brilliant, in their own sphere. Try appreciating musicians for what they do, in their field, instead of being totally biased towards one style.

  • John pettrucci?

    

  • kenny hollywood humplick. fucking faggot. 

  • drummer is a poof

  • Kenny Aranoof is a good drummer, but I dont care waht you thing and you say Neil Peart , Thomas Lang , John Bonham Fuck you the best drummer in the world is Doug Clifford YEAH CCR forever

  • Common stupid Fogerty is a profesional if you cant be a profesional , go to play whit Justin Bibier

  • When Ray Manzarek and Jim Morrison were starting The Doors, Ray said, "I want guys who want to rock and roll more than they want to fuck." They found Robbie Krieger and John Densmore. Fogerty and Aronoff fit the profile too: With these two, you don't need any other musicians.

  • I enjoy hearing from a real pro - he's a fantastic drummer, and Fogerty is better than most of the artists in the last 30 years. Nice to hear that they push each other and act like pros.

  • I like it - and I don't need drama. This is a pro at work - and this guy is GREAT!!!!

  • John Fogerty looks like Donny Most,(Ralph Malph)

  • 0:10... "wot" do you need more to ´c´ at least any yank stuff past gnr is garbage..?

    (al bundys daughter? his wife??...)

  • what a suck video.  Just plain suck. With a capitol UCK! Waste of freakin space!

  • I'm gonna assume this drummer was banging this chick reporter to generate this waste of time...

  • Fogerty looks like Don Henley in this shirt! :-)

  • @McCormickfahrer dont insult drummers please...

  • Comment removed

  • Doug Clifford kicked ass - not that guy!

  • what a joke, this isnt what i expected at all, stop putting stupid ass misleading titles to shit.

  • well the drummer certainly "sparkles" I'd say hes a lisp and an appletini away from bursting into flames

  • .. saw him on pbs special, this guy is one hell of a drummer..

    ...and he plays with the best.

  • I think the lowly drummer in the band needs to remember who the people came to see. He needs to remember who is paying his paycheck. There are 1,000 guys just a good as he is who would be honored to play behind an icon on all those old CCR tunes.

  • @oldgrizzlebear this isnt meg white we are talking about here. they sign his checks (repeatedly for the last 30 years) because he is and continues to be one the best performing drummers in the industry.

  • Wow Kenny Aronoff is an arrogant asshole

  • @bassist617 How did you get that off of this clip? I just don't see that.

  • Hey, i have a question... John C. Fogerty, what is the C for?

  • @MrBoesen  Cameron

  • @MrBoesen Cunt

  • Right Said Fred is a drummer now?

  • where did he get those shades from, a fancy dress shop? lol.. joking aside great drummer love his work on mellancamps 'scarecrow' album

  • I like aranoff, and he's the perfect fogerty drum man, but i wish thta Johnny could or would patch things up with cosmo, and maybe do a show or two with him

  • best in the bussiness?

  • If you are a neil pert fan? check out this dude, neil peart... plays for lil band called RUSH... lol idiot

  • NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!

    NEIL PERT IS THE BEST FUCKING DRUMMER!!!

    NOT THIS GUY! OH MY GAWD!!!!

    IT'S FUCKING NEIL PERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    NEEEEEEEEEEEEIIIIIIIIIILL PEEEEEEEEEEEERT (head explodes)

  • @tabguy14 No, Neil isn't.

  • @tabguy14 If you think Neal is the best then you could at least learn how to spell his name, it's Peart , not Pert.

  • @salosonone you mean 'Neil'? You're right about the Peart part...

    w w w . n e i l p e a r t . n e t

  • you better suck your own balls keny by loser

  • RAAHHHHWWWWWW. whatever.

  • Wtf is this a tribute to some drummer. Just a spam video.

  • if you're gonna try to sound like some kind intellectual , it helps if your statements actually make sense .Cretin

  • Definatley not the best in the business.

  • @MetallicaFan035 Aronoff is definitely one of the best in the buisness know your music . Billy Corgan hired him for god sakes! Pumpkins , Stones , Melloncamp come on dude.

  • I through there was going to be a fight ;D

  • kenny is the man

  • 6 hour sound check = FAIL..... get a new sound man or clean the wax outa ur ears... FOR CHRIST'S SAKE!!!!!

  • 'I kick ass just by nature' Yes, thats how it's done.. He's like the yngwie of drums lol...

  • drummer dude looks like satriani.

  • Check Kenny on the Burning for Buddy dvd that Neil Peart put together and ASKED Kenny to play on.Kenny is a BAD MUTHA and even Neil knows it.

  • Kenny Aronoff does not kick ass. Mike Portnoy, Blake Richardson, Thomas Lang, Neil Peart, Buddy Rich, and Eloy Casagrande kick ass.

  • @Raiderfan123 wrong . your opinion loses credibility as soon as I see 'raider fan"

  • @Tecumseh1812 That's all in perspective just as I could say you lose credibility for being the dissenter to my argument. Your comment contains no factual support and is just an opinion based on personal bias. Which is even worse because you involve bias in your argument. You sir, are a faggot.

  • Aronoff looks like such a douchebag. Who dresses this guy?

  • @JoshDone

    He does, it's sad, I cry

  • @JoshDone homos and emos.

  • Kenny Aronoff...kicks arse ? ? ?

    Baha hahahah!

    Kenny is a beginner next to Bonham, Phillips, Cobham, White....i could go on and on and on...this guy is a better promoter than he is a drummer (sigh)

  • un po' di umilta' in piu' davanti a una leggenda del R'n'R' come Fogerty non guasterebbe..

  • what is all this about kicking ass. you show yourselves as a bunch of asses

  • False advertising. How many besides me came here looking for a throwdown?

  • . . . kenny is a killer drummer - knocks everybody out and is a funny guy too - met him backstage in köln this year .

  • mellencamp threw him away. he owes everything he has to mellencamp

  • Comment removed

  • No reason to get that arrogant though...

  • this whole video appears to be nothing other than an ad for a drummer.

  • this dude seems an egotiscal prick

  • @mikeketlo mike, aranoff is an egotistical prick, but he also kicks ass so thats why he makes a million per performance. If he was an egotistical prick but couldnt produce on stage then he would be a jerk. I dont care if someone is egotistical as long as they arent blowing smoke.

  • does anyone know which song plays in this video?thank you very much

  • @planetsolega Comin' Down the Road

  • Comment removed

  • 1:02 check out his weird ass head

  • Great story from Aronoff! John used to have to tell Cosmo how to play back in the CCR days, and NO ONE can legitimately doubt Fogerty's dedication to perfection. I remember when he played the Welcome Home Vietnam Vets concert back in '84 (his first live shows, at that time, in over a decade). Who did he recruit? Steve Cropper and Duck Dunn from Booker T's band! I also remember John challenging George Thorogood in an interview at the time to recommend a better band than the one he'd assembled!

  • Aronoff is a real STUD DADDY behind the drumkit. He rocks his butt off with Fogerty on John's new concert DVD. One of my favorite drummers.

  • @BloozeDaddy76 Overated drummer if there ever was one. John , you should call me to do your ass kicking. Not this weak ass Arronot!!!

  • @rrdrums1111 neil peart!

  • Anyone can explain me this video? I'm french and I don't understand when they speaks :-(

  • FUCK YEAH!!!! Kenny is an atomic clock!

  • Everyone saying stuff about Kenny should realise it's just abit of fun?

  • JP musicman o_o where's the shred? =D

  • just saw a drum clinic with him... YES!

  • 6 hour soundcheck for a 2 hour show? Yikes.

  • Kenny Aronoff is an amazing drummer he was having a sense of humor i know him personally hes a really cool person and not stuck up so know your facts first before you all go assuming things.

  • And Now Kenny has to understand John Fogerty his music. I think it's terrible when I hear him bang the drums for Fogerty. Kenny is a good hardrock drummer but he don't have that swamp, blues feeling.

  • Comment removed

  • Alguien podría decirme, en español, a que se refiere esta entrevista y que dice el baterista en su respuesta? Muchas gracias a quien me responda, desde ya.

  • Aprende ingles pendejo.LOL

  • wow that dude is a huge douche

  • this guy is a total tool

  • geez wouldn't wanna have much of an ego lol

  • this drummer is a fuckin bitch

  • @Wowzas115 .....im assuming your not a drummer as you refered to Kenny Aronoff as a bitch. if your are in fact a drummer, you play a first act two piece with your penis. I cant fucking stand John Fogerty, but for you to call Kenny Aronoff a bitch is crazy. Not to mention this guy could actually kick your ass with his index finger. Ive seen him in clinics and he is no fucking slouch.

  • @Wowzas115 You're the bitch.

  • this drummer bitch doesnt even compare to a legend like fogerty. no comparison. he doesnt kick ass. john is a rock-and-roll hall of famer. this bald dumbass aint shit

  • U are plain stupid !

  • Are you kidding?! Kenny Aronoff is an amazing drummer he was having a sense of humor i know him personally hes a really cool person and not stuck up so know your facts first asshole.

  • Go Kenny Go! Great technique and soul!

  • John Fogerty ROCKS !! No doubt !!! Saw Him At Musikfest in Bethlehem . The Man ROCKS !!!It' It's heart ,that's all I know, & I know it when I've HEARD IT !!!

  • all bands where the drums suck lol

  • That made absolutely no sense.

  • that's what the drummer sounds like :D

  • Yeah, the dude bothers me a little bit.

  • I agree... I mean no doubt he is a good drummer but there is something that makes me despise him :S

  • a rude bald headed arrogant ugly self serving fag....

  • Whats the name of the song in the back?

  • I belive it is "Rockin all over the world"...

  • @luthor910 It's "coming down the road"

  • Like he says, "I am a tough guy'

    Hey Kenny, may your accountant drag you outside and re-arrange your ugly teeth

  • What a jerk

  • Kenny is great!......

  • fucking bad behav.. chewing gum not to cover while speaking.

    should it be cool? Its just ugly

  • What a KNOB!

  • Saw JF in concert about 10 years ago. One of the best concert's I have even been to. If you have a change.... go see him. You won't regret it!

  • Kenny might be a good drummer, but he looks like a major butt pirate

  • then Sam Elliot comes in a kicks the shit out of everyone

  • hey is that john petrucci's signature guitar?

  • It's just like the woman said in this interview, John Fogerty is a rock legend!!!

  • Jerry Lee Lewis at the end!! :0 :)

  • Stop whining asshole...

  • I dont see why people like to compare bands or singers. they are not the same and thats why you either like or dislike. because they are different, I would think that you would want variety . but not all bands try to explore new music, but the ones that do are the ones that tend to stick around much longer than the rest. many of the artists that were mentioned are different in many ways. if you like them or not you should atleast show some respect and not diss them

  • @darrellkershaw Its hard for me to understand english. Can you explain me what is going on here between these two guys?

  • @elkintobitle Aronoff's saying Fogarty has really high standards, and Fogarty notices when Aronoff isn't at his absolute best, but it's ok, because it's good that Fogarty really cares about the drumming.

  • I liked their arguments!I havent read all of it but I understand them both as real nice music lovers!Why argument started here I dont care but I appreciate their knowledge of THE SINGERS & BANDS who rocked our world at large!! Hats off to `these arguing guys' who brought out the names of the bands & singers evaluating them on their own rocking styles!! Reading it gave me an idea of the great musical world which I knew soo little!Thanks for striking out a nice & harmless subject to argue upon.!!

  • how in the hell did an argument start on a comments list for THIS video off all videos

  • because its youtube

  • wow, serious losers really do argue on youtube

  • take it back !!!!!!!!!!

  • I am not saying any thing lots of negetivety in here (PROBABLY SPELLED WRONG BUT I THINK YOU KNOW THE WORD)

  • Cant believe I read you two dumb old fucks arguing for ten minutes. I'm going to put on some Buddy Guy and relax.

  • Hope a dumb f**k like yourself would just go relax and find something better to do with your time. Good idea.

  • Quik reply, you've obviously got a lot of time on your hands(sorry). Hope metheny doesnt put you in a coma.

  • Listen to yourself. You basically say you wasted all the time reading our comments, yet you have the time to reply like a jerk? You sure your not in a coma already? Plus, your not that far behind in age. You should be getting called "an old f**k" yourself soon anyday now.

  • Yup. That day came last month. Point taken.

  • Not my style of music, but I would never question his talent or accomplishments.

  • Ok, your right a bit. I wasn't a Beatles fan. I like Abbey Road & the White Album. I loved Wings. I started out my record collection on The Monkees & Partridge Family AS A KID. The Beatles were just ok. Radio music. As I got older, Zeppelin & Boston, Van Halen became my favs. James Gang, Deep Purple, Alice Cooper to name a few. The music later on in the 80's went back to the basic (IMO) BORING Beatles type pop standards & garbage metal, so I started listening to fusion. I favor Progressive music

  • NIce to hear some one mention the James Gang for once. Awesome band, awesome lineup.

  • Both Metheny & Lennon are boring. I prefer Ray Conniff.
