  • hes in Tacoma Washington

  • I saw a better quality version of this once and he's actually got a jim beam holster so the bottle won't fall out.

  • Where is he?

  • AHHH! -trippy music plays-

  • I was at this show in Little Rock my junior year of High School. Thanks for takin me back. Still rocking to Motley Crue's 1987 jams. Back then Tommy Lee was The Man.

  • nobody hate on tommy haha nobody ever said he's the best drummer but he's by far the coolest and most entertaining

  • joey jordison is 100x better then this fool. Look up some of his drum solos

  • Comment removed

  • What a self-absorbed asshole. This is the worse in drumming and music..and I like MC's music, just not all the self indulgence.

  • OMFG I LOVE TOMMY LEE

  • AND THIS IS THE PART OF THE DREAM WHERE THE FIRST ROW KNOWS WHAT THE BACON I ATE AT DENNY'S THIS MORNING TASTE LIKE WOO!

  • All hail Tommy!

  • this is way better then joey Jordinson

  • @LostMemory002 lol except joey could have easily done this with only one arm and one leg

  • @PsiloCybinDreamX Especially since he uses beaters, amirite?

  • @Landrar lol hes a legit drummer

  • This for me was when he started to focus more on "Tommy Lee" the personality..and much less on Tommy the drummer. He hasn't done anything since that impressed me as much as the first several years of the band. He was a real force then.

  • Oh... My... God... This beets Joey Jordison huh, :]

  • the man's got rhythm and entertainment skills.....

  • Saw this Live in Philly!

  • arguably the greatest rock drummer!

  • Comment removed

  • @oquatanzenwan LOL!! Tommy is good but nowhere close to the best. Neil Peart IS the best Check this out. Type in "A Show of Hands" and look for the "drum solo" THAT is a drum solo!!!

  • @oquatanzenwan the guy from Porcupine Tree steals that title, bro

  • annoying fuck!

  • Fucken mad hit that drum and make it screem for help yeahhhhhhhhh sick

  • BANGIN DA DRUMS

  • its like watching a magician that builds you up but doesnt know any magic

    

  • this is the worse youtube clip i have ever seen

  • If I were the sound guy, I would have taken the phaser effect off the drums. Otherwise, Tommy is hitting hard and kicking ass!

  • @6672rock it was the eighties man

  • ZZZZZZZZZZZZ..............off to grab a double shot of coffee. Not qualified to be a roadie for a real drummer to the likes of Steve Smith, Steve Gdd, Vinny Colaiuta or Dave Weckl.

  • technical mullet druming

  • is he playing drums with his penis? 

  • needs more cowbell... :]

  • Wow, that's just about the worst drum solo ever. The visuals with the set spinning around are kind of interesting, but the drumming itself is pretty lame. Oh, and he takes forEVER to actually get to the part where the set spins.

  • @TimServo Suck a dick pal.

  • @TimServo i only we had the ability to skip to that part instantly. oh..wait a minute...

  • Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

  • @ifutureman Actually, Tommy usually hit up on heroin and got very fucking messed up :P the more you know.

  • I swear i seen a drum stick fall at 4:42

  • @xnastyhawkx1 lol i saw it 2 it was probably an extra

  • @xnastyhawkx1 welll you gotta get him credit for not losing his tempo...... I guess!

  • I swear i seen a drum stick fall at 4:43

  • fuck me,... i was at this concert.i was an 8th grader at jason lee jr high tacoma, wa. and this was at the tacoma dome.memories,...

  • So he's in Denver, right?

  • @JamieThompsonCovers No, I think this show was in Miami. Not 100% sure but almost certain.

  • @JamieThompsonCovers you didnt pay attention did you... He was in Guadalajara....

  • @JamieThompsonCovers No you ass, he's in Toronto. Didn't you listen?

  • He still does this 24 years later, and he still says 'fuck' every other word too. His vocabulary hasn't grown much.

  • I'm pretty sure he's playing the cowbell with his huge penis...

  • He should go on America's got Talent...

  • OMG this is so cool!! Tommy is amazing!! What a rush!! I would be yelling and screaming if I were being spun upside down too!

  • @Beatleshell According to Rolling Stone Magazine, Tommy got this idea from his brief gay affair with Merle Haggard. Merle reported that while they were in an inverted 69 position, he said it would be a great idea if they could service each other while spinning around in the air. Tommy took that idea and applied it to his concert performance. Pretty cool, eh? Didn't know Tommy was a fag though.

  • OMG this is so cool!! Tommy is amazing!! What a rush!!

  • I showed my mom the rev from avenged sevenfold and I said he was the best drummer ive ever seen- she said look up this guy. I said okay, and I still love the rev foREVer♥

  • pretty sure i like his new drum solo this year a lil better wit the 360 rollercoaster shit \m/ saw The Crue in Milwaukee few weeks ago, awesome fuckin show

  • JAJAJAJAJA ESTO ES SORPRENDENTE,ARTURO JAREM,LORENA SERRATO Y YO NOS CAGABAMOS EN EL KAMI KASE JAJAJAA IMAGINENSE HACER ESTO,

  • MMMM NO MANCHES EL ARTURO,LAURA,LORENA Y YO NOS CAGABAMOS EN EL KAMI KASE JAJAJAJA.

  • hmm, on this day, i am perusing more stuff for myself to challenge.

  • i wanna know why you look so good looking at the opening of the 'times' square poster. you should look more haggard and upset, similar to how you look now, years later.

  • ...and then he drops a stick...

  • dont have a clue where he is..

  • anybody who thinks tommy lee is not one of the best drummers ever can fuck themselves.. yeah he drinks a lot. yeah he gets high a lot. but who the fuck cares? i'd like to see any of you do what he does better.

  • @TheGuyKevin1 You need to get your shit straight bro. There are SO many drummers better than him, Lee is nowhere near the top.

  • @Peartnoy518 i know there are a lot of people better.. i hate the criticism about how people say that he sucks and how he only drinks and gets high.. that doesnt affect his drumming much.

  • what a bunch of goofy shit. im embarrassed to remember 1987.

  • Tommy Lees fake and gay.

  • @whatsleft9 u mad?

  • Tommy is an average drummer by profession a dink with a big dink as a man. Is he in Tacoma?

  • Tommy is an average drummer by profession a dink with a big dink as a man

  • Eddie Van Halen and Joe Satriani .. Guitar Gods

  • Comment removed

  • heres a few names to remind you's of good drummers...Dennis Chambers, Joey Jordison, Mike Portnoy, Neil Peart and the list goes on }:X

  • Joey Jordison and Mike Portnoy cannot be put in the same category as Dennis Chambers. Dennis Chambers is one of the best drummers of all time. Joey Jordison is an average Joe. Mike Portnoy is good but not great!

  • @TheJoshdavila you have to say mike portnoys excellent for his genre though, hes perfect for the stuff he doess and is a great prog metal writer

    but i agree dennis is nuts

  • Ya your right, Mike Portnoy is a great drummer especially in his genre of music. I just see him as good compared to Dennis Chambers, thats all.

  • @TheJoshdavila you know jojo mayer?

  • When I see this, I try to not choke on the bile that comes up in the back of my throat. Tommy Lee is the most over rated drummer in the world. The only thing he is good at is doing drugs and saying the F word.

  • @martycranford1 Same comment different video. lol So what are you going to do look up every Tommy Lee video on youtube and post the same comment? That bile thing in your throat must be serious uh? Stop watching Tommy Lee videos and i'll bet that will cure it. Troll.

  • @fizkein its a crap solo.. Hes one of the most overrated drummers of all time

  • I bet it wasnt a dream. he was just so fucked up on coke and shit that he thought his visions where dreams

  • a drum solo based on a dream.. this is really stupid

  • @NBytes94 its metal.

  • Ever heard of Neil Peart or John Bonham? Pretty pretty good!

  • way to just name 2 of the 3 greatest drummers of all time hahaha

  • is that nikki doin that bass

  • FUCK DID YOU FUCKING THINK HE SAiD FUCK ENOUGH FUCKING TIMES FUCKIN TUCOMA CRAZY ASS SHIT :D

  • tommy. dude. no one is with you. very bland and desperate to be epic! sorry dude.

  • ??? THIS is Tommy Lee??

    His improvisation sucks. Bad. Just does the same shit over and over. Someone give me a link to something INTERESTING he's done, if possible, because this doesn't impress me at all, but I don't want to judge from just one video.

  • @shadzzz441791 Check out the Dallas solo from last night

  • i don't see how this is awesome fro crowds, he's the one that gets to have all the fun.

  • @codydawson91 for*

  • watch?v=_lShTMrFVco This guy plays a song better than he does a solo, and he does it without being fucking annoying and up his own arse too. "I'M GONNA GO 90 DEGREES!" Shut up and drum, like your paid to do.

  • there is no such thing as real or fake music... Music is music. And no offense to any Motley Crue fans, but Tommy lee is most definitely not one of the best drummers ever. He was good, but in his own way. He was very basic and you can see from the simple split bass snare fills.

    The new modern drumming styles have completely changed and if people want to play emo or scene music or metalcore or pop or rap, let them. Drumming is drumming and you should respect that.

  • WOW i thought that this was new with jordison but this vid is older than me! wow thisguys insane

    hes awesome!!!!

  • this buddy is crazy ! 

  • tht beats joey jordisons by a LONG shot

  • Intro needs more cowbell

  • this looked so damn cool in the wildside video... but then we didnt have to hear him talk or waste 7mins of the concert that could have been spent playing another 2 songs.

  • Would have made a very average drum solo more entertaining if he'd have kept his mouth shut...

  • this isnt good...

    ITS FRIGGIN AWESOME =D

  • @gibson735150 lol go look at joey jordison then say there arnty any good drummers out there anymore he plays real music

  • Not only is this solo nothing more than an uninspiring gimmick, but Tommy Lee really is a moron. I'm surprised he didn't have to wipe drool off his shirt when they tipped him forward.

  • Where is he? He never says...

  • @JakedelXcour Tacoma,Pierce County,Washington State,USA

  • @JakedelXcour dude he says at the beginning.. he is in Tacoma.. its just south of Seattle

  • @JakedelXcour Tacoma!

  • @JakedelXcour He does he says America.

  • @JakedelXcour Tacoma Washington State

  • @Chipkanobe He's definitely being sarcastic

  • @drumbuddy08 i laughed my ass when chipkanobe answered the location.

  • @JakedelXcour I think hes in a toyota tacoma!

  • It's it's the Ballroom Blitz..... 

  • ok..... um the props are sweet but the percussion's have absolutely no substance.

  • more cowbell!

  • =0

  • CRAP

  • haha buddy rich will own tommy lee and any other drummer mentioned in the comments

  • @musicsubwoofer Buddy Rich died 24 years ago. Great drummer but he won't be owning anyone!

  • Motley Crue is all about the idea of music and entertainment together. I personally don't like Joey of Slipknot and I don't care who can do what better. I like Tommy. And I like Nikki, Vince, and Mick. So :p to everyone who disagrees

  •  tommy lee WAY over rated and kind of sucks!

  • joey is doing it better dude :D

  • Starts spinning at 4:00

  • "HEY TACOMA!"

  • he did more talking than drumming.hehe!

  • @luzier13x he got the crowd excited, and you know your exagerrating, he did more drumming than YELLING

  • @justsnortedcoke haha! dont get me wrong. i love the crue and all 80's band. but he should've dropped the story telling and just beat the shit out of those kit.

  • joey jordisons was better.but at least its better then metallicas drummer

  • @lostloser6 well yeah he is gonna be better. He did it 20 years later. Drums and gyros both have come a long way in the last 20 years.

  • @lostloser6 newsboys used the same rig as joey did, and made it way more awesome

  • @2themoon2 i just watched the newsboys drum solo and joey was higher then them tht guy was as hugh as slipknots percussionist shaun crahan

  • Now I see where slipknot got their idea from

  • this man is one of three of my drum gods.

  • I agree DAVIDMACK! Neil is great, but check out these three GREATS locked in a showdown: drummerworld (dot) com/Videos/showdown (dot) html

  • Tommy needs to talk LESS and Play the Kit Like Neal Peart. He isn't THAT good!!!

  • what dream Buddy Rich did this in the late 60s

  • needs more cowbell lol.

  • Travis Barker is all over Tommy's nuts!

  • THIS HAS TO BE THE COOLEST FUCKING SHIT I'VE EVER FUCKING SEEN OMFGGGGGG

  • joey jordison is better.

  • @Cookies506 Maybe now, but when Jordinson was drinking milk, Tommy was doing this things that Johey will copy in the future...

  • coooowwwwwbbeeellllll!!!

  • TACOMA

  • i like how everyone talks shit but they probably cant do this shit themselves

    they probably listen to joey from slipknot and the rev from a7x and think anyone who doesnt do double bass the whole time and do a lil fills every so often sucks, no one puts their soul into it...they think that the faster you are, the better but that aint true

  • @mrbrownstone1995 Probably true. I personally think Joey is the worst drummer I've ever heard. But, The Rev was an amazing drummer. He never did solos because he did everything cool into the music. He put his heart and soul into the music. But, you make a good points and I totally think the same way and tell everyone the same stuff. Double bass, going fast, and doing fills a lot don't make you an amazing drummer. Precision, style, technique, skill, and experience make you a good drummer.

  • @dumbdrummer95 exactly dude!!!

    im a drummer and i can do double bass and crazy fills and all that bullshit but its not all i do, i play more "funky" stuff i guess you can say you know? and i know this kid who plays like joey but doesnt know how to play all the stuff i play, but i personally like the rev...he was a great drummer and like you said, put his soul into it

    my only problem is that im more into old school rock, metal, punk, etc. so all this new stuff isnt my fav

    im barely 15 tho

  • @mrbrownstone1995 Glad to hear! I'm basically the same way. I can do double bass and I can do a lot of cool stuff, but that's not all I do. I can do metal, rock, jazz, funk, progressive, basically anything. But, I like to play hard rock and metal the most. I used to be into more old school metal and rock, but then I discovered cool modern metal bands that sounded just as bad ass. Practice is the only way to get better, so keep on it and one day you might play like Tommy Lee.

  • @dumbdrummer95 yeah i get you dude, i was strictly into bands like van halen and led zeppelin and all that shit but then i started to listen to new stuff and like you said, some of it is actually pretty badass. i like avenged, killswitch, disturbed and all that, i realized that it is better to be open minded than to be close minded like most pop fans are these days. and playing jazz is pretty badass. its real underrated but super complicated

  • @mrbrownstone1995

    same here

  • wow this is fucking one of the most retarded hilarious videos ive ever seen hahaha

  • his drumming sux.

    but as a man

    i have to respect him.

  • WOW !!!!! Exactly the way it was in pittsburgh,pa on the girls,girls,girls tour! 86 or 87. I am 41 now , funny how parts of your life are permantly inbeaded in your brain!

  • Needs more cowbell.... oh wait, this shit's just fine for fuckin' cowbell!!! :D \m/

  • damn man i wonder how much pussy these guys got on like, a daily basis son

  • He puts on a great performance but as far as artistic and skillful drumming goes this was pretty awful.

  • @MrOhjames who is talking ?

  • every drummer now is just a drummer, no one really puts effort into making a good performance, its just playing the drums for them, they walk on on play the drums, i wish all drumers would put taste into there performance like tommy did, im only 15 and ive seen him twice, and he does fuckin stick twirls, hits his stick on the rim and it goes flying upp, hes got a titty cam, and he fuckin flys in the air on the carnival of sins tour

  • How about... to the left?

  • Well... This IS '87, most of the show was glam... But still...

  • i liked him better when he was inside pamela anderson

  • this is pretty corny. i don't get how people are acting like this is a bastion for real music. it's more like a fucking WWF work. the energy he put into "to the left" "to the right" was so cringey

  • @nickypeeps How about Tacoma tacoma tacoma tacoma. Say it one more time Tommy!

  • @PanteraBoy989 yeah, it's fucking annoying. especially since he did the same shit in every down and just replaced the name of the city to convince rubes that he's really connecting with them. you might as well just go to a fucking circus. this isn't sincere music

  • @nickypeeps Man have you seen Godsmacks la batalla de los tambores? If not check it out.

  • @PanteraBoy989 i don't like Godsmack, and i don't even really like drum solos, but that video was pretty cool. very primal sounding

  • Holy Shit! The Jonas bros. Suck cock and ass! And when people name their favorite drummers, you never hear someone say Tommy lee. Unless they are 40 year old rednecks that only listen to bad music about sex. All im sayin is that Tommy lee is overrated along with motley crüe and their band of drunken douchebags...

  • Tommy lee sucks. There are several people I can name who can top is shit. FYI he's also a douche.

  • @kidbadtimeout you are a fucking douche. there are only 2 or 3 drummers that could hold a broken stick to Tommy... learn your music jerkoff. Let me guess, your favorite band is the jonas bros... i'm not suprised!!!!!!

  • @kidbadtimeout but he earned the right to be a douche!!!!

  • @kidbadtimeout . Yeah, but he earned the right to be a douche. bet that's what he says every time he makes a withdrawal from his bank account, Man what a douche I am...lol

  • Why aren't there any drummers like this anymore??! I mean, all the drummers looking for a band play emo crap or some kind of ultra hyper super black death metal shit.... No offense to people who like that, but doesn't anyone listen to real music anymore?
