Artist Spotlight: Carter Beauford (Don't Drink The Water)

[TheRevsSon6661]

i love how the user who put this up is vic firth and carter clearly uses pro mark

[DNA1056]

God I love watching Carter play. There are alot of great drummers out there but not many open handed ones with such obvious love for what they are doing.

[tuneificationable]

the cameraman got too close and got nailed in the dome with a stick, giving us that wonderful 10 second shot of the crowd that we all loved so much......

[tuneificationable]

that kickass one handed fill at 2:08? mmhmmm, nbd.....

[FrizzyDiouleBiGbonus]

the cameraman is a médium shit.....carter is my favorite drummer i love it...

[thatguy0027]

@DRUMMERMARK100 What do you mean this isn't the actual audio? it's dead on to what he's playing

[drumsticks135]

@thatguy0027 I just think it's just mixed weird. I don't know if I hear any of the overhead mics. Hard to hear cymbals

[tuneificationable]

@drumsticks135 its definitely the original audio.....mostly because carter hardly ever plays a song the same way twice, so if it matches up with what he is doing, it is most likely the original audio lmao the man jams just too much to substitute audio

[drumsticks135]

@tuneificationable oh yeah, without a doubt it is. I'm just saying it's hard to this cymbals in this particular video for whatever reason. Either way, Carter is a beast. For sure in my top 5 favorite drummers

[bourland27]

carter is amazing

[minstrel34]

He dressed to go play football

[DRUMMERMARK100]

This isn't the actual audio. 

[TexSnare0702]

I thought he used pro-mark? :o

[acovino89]

@TexSnare0702 He did. He moved to Vic Firth.

[snowfall1236789]

Great Song!! Wonder what the cameraman is doing mind!! More interested in the lights and the crowd!!!

[levey24]

under armour and footjoy should sponsor him

[thatthomasguy1]

So, I'm guessing the white cord behind his back is going to his power supply.

[NewOut1]

the guy who filmed this was clearly drunk as shit.

[74djangoboogie]

carter looks like a otter sea lol

[dana52484]

since when does carter play vic firth?

[TheDrummerman56]

@dana52484 this is just his introduction as a new vic firth member. basically endorsement

[dana52484]

@TheDrummerman56 yeah I get that, but hes always been a loyal user of pro-mark (as I am) and most drummers don't just up and switch the sticks they use...

[JcDrummer28]

Are those cymbals muted or something?

[Drumvids93]

fck u camera man!!!

[DAYMOUS]

i think this were the magic is when you make something hard look easy then you got something going

[TheDrummerman56]

He makes it look beyond easy :p here's a real musician for you, unlike those "artists" on MTV

[yuribgsf]

you guys are talking about the camera man, he did a great job, this is how it looks in first hand. after this, they will get some takes to cut and put it on a moviefilm, alternating with other positions of others cameras to complete the job, stop being anoying, this is a privillege. see the music from a show in that quality is very good, after this comes that speach "Oh, did you saw the DMB DVD? its awesome!" yeah it is, because of these takes of cameramans.

[rwfan11]

@yuribgsf Was just about to say, most of the people talking about the cameraman... have you ever been to a DMB experience? (I call it an experience because calling it a show or concert doesn't do it justice.) These guys get AMAZING shots for people at them.

[diffusiventity]

5:35 why on earth would we want to look at the light?!

[drummerproducerguy]

love it :) carter is always smiling and he plays so smooth. his grip makes the sticks look light as a feather.

[KillerFrettchen]

Can someone shoot the camera guy, please?!

[gnzvideos]

Those cymbals must sound great but it's not head in the mix! too baddd

[DeSilva1233]

1 people doesn't have Vic Firth Sticks :D

[0509killer]

the camera man is clearly not a drummer.

[Ipso80]

@0509killer I'd argue the camera man isn't even a camera man!

[Miichkiel]

@0509killer The camera-man is hardly a camera-man, as well.

[GiacomoCavagna]

@0509killer the camera man is clearly not a cameraman!!!

[JoviBeni]

hes like an indean deity with ten hands and heads

[74djangoboogie]

une tuerie!!!!

[njapostol]

great musicians, shite music

[MtgMcQuacks]

@njapostol Nah. Great music.

[JoviBeni]

@njapostol its a dialogue between a European intruder and Native chief dude!!! Tap in to the epicness!!! … but your right its shite in comparison with other takes of this song… theyve done it so many times where hearts and minds melted by it .. imagine having that kind of self expectation to live up to.

[vezok200]

necesito unos guantes asi !!!
