[drumsbare]

[mikulasvselicha]

you cant hear the ghost notes properly

[JoeJacari]

travis barker always and forever the drum king

[ptrLeGrand]

His snare souns like a fuckin gun! Haha, Chad his a Groove Riffle.

[ptrLeGrand]

..sounds like... Chad IS a .. damn, was I drunk!? Haha

[chriscutie33]

True dat. I used to like him but he's nothing compared to the drummers out there today!

[onasunday]

chad, jimmy chamberlin, dave grohl, taylor hawkins, ben johnston, david silvera

my personal favourites

[ultimatefighter187]

lars urlich,nicko mcbrain,chamberlin,grohl and smith are mine im almost a huge fan of jazz drummers like jojo mayer thomas pridgen and many others....but iwas replying because you have a great taste of drummers :D

[elskerstine]

i was almost as playing this and now i my left hand is nazz and i can't play more

[RustyMobile]

I can only dream of being this good/fast lol. Better stick at though. Dreams can come true, eh?

[minnock92]

fukin quality! best drummer eva!

[zidan89]

are you crazy? He never was in the top 10...

[minnock92]

ah well still an ace drummer tho, defo mi favourite!

[JamesShore1990]

Because he is underrated.

He definetely is one of the best and ratings in magazines or whatever can't be trusted...

[ptrLeGrand]

Hell, I'm tired of reading about Travis Barker on every Chad Smith's video. M Barker only plays fast kids loops.. Chad kick his butt with steel boots !

[DatajProductions]

Chad is a better drummer, Yes. but dont forget that Travis is a way talented drummer too...

But chads better

[pudgepaw]

i hate when people think travis barker is da best drummer but hes not b/c he plays simple stuff but fast i mean hes good but i thik chad is way better!!!

[AzoreanPorkchop]

Dude totally agree!!!!! travis barker is way overated hes only fast thats all hes got going for him

[11193dom]

@AzoreanPorkchop and the sad thing is, Chad is STILL WAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY FASTER than Travis

[Br4iaN96]

haha. Chad is too funny. :D

[LunchBox0872]

i love the funk kinda style he has

[ptrLeGrand]

Shithole, this kicks ass! YEAAAAAAAAAAAAH

[metalpunk22]

Now that's sick drumming!

[Iutubsucs]

he should put this tecnique in the studio cd too....

[andylo309]

his snare sounds like a gun!

[MetallicaChiliPepper]

"yeh watch out for the guns...they'll get ya"

compliments of will ferrel anchorman lol

CHAD > everyone on the planet

[ptrLeGrand]

Right, its sick. You feel it deep.

[cukits]

hahaha will ferrell looks like chad smith, chad smith one of the most incredible drummmers around the world.. HE ROCKS!!

[utubeworms]

Hey, is that Will Ferrell playing the drums?

[mrcoolnsmooth]

AMEN!

hahahahahahaha

[funkrock94]

chad smith is very good but not a "god drummer" but i don't know why , there's something in his drumming that i love and for me he's one of the best drummer ( it's very strange that i have writen ... pas grave )

[demolitionpunxx]

Hahahaha i have seen better solos of chad, he is much better than what he appears in this video, but i bet he was pretty drunk anyway

[kermitthefrog1975]

As much as I am a fan of RHCP.

Chad Smith is not in the same ballpark as Bonham.

[MetallicaChiliPepper]

i agree man, i am chads biggest fan

but theres no chad without bonham

his main influence if u listen to them

[elskerstine]

you are not chads biggest fan

i am :P

[Troughmaster]

You can hear the slight Bonham influence.

To be honest for all the success the Chilis have had Chad Smith still remains quite an overlooked drummer, in honesty I'd choose him to Mr Grohl, I prefer Chad's style.

[pmasap]

I think that Lars is better......:PPPPP

[joaorockpunk]

yeah, lars is better but chad is GOD....

[rhupliftmofocp]

lars ulrich fukin sux, have you seen him play live lately?

[MetallicaChiliPepper]

as uch as i love lars he cant keep in time live ... however chad is a god...the ironic thing about lars is that st anger was some of his greatest work but its jus that the drums sounded horrible...anyone agree? its jus an opinion

[rhupliftmofocp]

yea deffinitely, the drumming on st anger is intense, let me tell you, i saw rhcp live a while a go, chad teh roxx so much live.

[MetallicaChiliPepper]

yeh man me too, u ever seen live at slane castle?

they did that drum solo at hampden park in glasgow with all the football chanting

and it was 10x louder than Ireland my eardrums were on the brink of explosion lol

and to comment on this video(again) i jus love how he goes completely insane and then settles back into the little shuffle groove hes got goin...LEGEND!!!

[rhupliftmofocp]

yea pretty good dvd.

[soadfn1]

I agree. St. Anger sounded like a garage band album. I like metallica but damn i like the older stuff more than the new.

RHCP kicks ass.

[benjoNA1987]

XD XD chad smith!!!!!!!! this performance is very fantastic!!!!!!chad forever

[Guusd]

my friend just bought the chad signature series snare and it sounds exactly like the one chad is using here!

[akirajamal]

he's not just randomly blasting away, this is creative and musical. he's quite a minimalist on record though. I LOVE LOVE LOVE THE SNARE DRUM ON DANI CALIFORNIA!!! OMG, it sounds so AWESOME!!!

[dividad1]

beast

[craigthebom1]

you've gotta luv red hot chili peppers as they are a legendary band. the only band that comes close to them is guns n roses.

[wraydude69]

yeah rock on chad your my insperation and an inperation 2 all sigle bass pedal players

[benjamindu73]

what a bad song for that beautiful solo, no?

[Bassplaya4191]

ok wtf is up with this whole hitting the bass drum with a stick thing?

i dont get it

some1 fill me in

[j3r3my14]

he does that becuase he doesnt have a double bass pedal so he just uses his drum sticks as another bass pedal

[Hickory420]

Good 'ol chad smith. He'll drop a stick, stop, crowd laughs, picks it up, and keeps rockin'. Gotta love it!

[bizar06]

JohnG1991 and CharlesRClayten stfu!!!!!!!!! we came here to watch the vid, not to be burdened with your adolcent antics. Thank you.

[JohnG1991]

this is a true thing that happens! its not a chain letter! its kinda scary at first but it really works!! paste this message into 3 comments and press ALT F4 and your crushes name will appear on the screen!!! its soo wierd!

[CharlesRClayton]

please shut the hell up.. no one falls for that

[JohnG1991]

come on then

[CharlesRClayton]

what the hell does that mean?

[JohnG1991]

d'you want a fight ya wee wido

[CharlesRClayton]

HAHAHAHA, you're pathetic

[kalakaboo]

the best drummer around today!

[FTFDrummer7]

you forget that joe morello is still alive. and even if he wasn't this guy isnt the best, there are much, much better drummers out ther, like carter beauford.

[kalakaboo]

there all mucicians not drummers. drummers have the passion musicians just play there instrument

[insanlydisturbed]

bullshit look at neil peart or danny carey of tool

[blueredfred2]

top 40? my bands drummer is in the top 12 ;)

[lewy666]

just because his feet arent going at a 240bpm(not technical at all), he's a credit to funk drumming, and his timing and dynamics are amazing.

[oObLizZaRdOo]

defently my fave drummer, he's beats are so funky, off the hook. and zontaro..shut up.

[LordOfTheDrums]

he IS good.. but shut the hell up about at 240 bpm not being technical... face it man.

[lewy666]

pfft...left right left right in 4/4 time...real technical. ur choice, i suppose.

[LordOfTheDrums]

hahaha.. ok.. upload a vid in which you show your double pedal abilities, since you don't need technique.. and do it at 960 4/4.. let's see how you'd do.

[lewy666]

ok i dont normally do this...but seein as this year i came top 40 drummers in the UK...why dont you just shut the hell up:) i prefer hands to feet; i didnt say it was easy, i said it wasnt technical.theres a difference. lmfao im like 3 years younger than you and im actin more mature.grow up.

[bleinis]

he's playing funk not metal...just because he's not that fast as joey jordison doesen't mean he's not special. playing funk can be very hard!

[shiznits44]

he isnt special tho....his songws r good...some beast difficult, but seeing him solo...lol played simple retarted beats that ne one can play

[Mike3303]

Expected something that stupid from a metal junkie.

[zontaro]

omfg! how over rated... everone thinks he is good? He's nothing special =/

[Rigerdaby]

yes u r gay zontaro good to see drummers who don't need double kick to muffle out there shitness long live chad though my fav drummer still jon theodore

[Superman54]

oh man i'm with you brother! i hate drummers that use double bass to fill the weak points in their playing. AND Jon Theodore is AMAZING. Anyway, gotta love Chad, he's got so much feel in his playing, second only to Berdard Perdie I think

[harror33]

chad is the man...vibrant and articulate...so nice to hear groove and not millions of double kicks...rhcp rock....

[bonzo3231]

so underated i saw him twice once at a chili peppers concert and then at a drum clinic he is one of my biggest inspirations so creative behind the kit

[pillyjane]

god he is so fucking good. what a ledgend. he fully eats drums for breakfast. ha. chilis for ever and ever. i love you john. x0.

[NotByChanceDrums]

This dude is ridiculous and solid. Chad Smith is one of my biggest influences.

[d3ye]

man this guy is off the hook

i'd never have guessed he was this great just by listening to his RHCP drumming

[hibsfan00001]

must be one of the most underrated drummers of the last 20 years...so intense but so funky, n he got deceivingly good technique too! dont think he needs to mic his kit up he hits it so damn hard..goes thru like a set of sticks every song!

[aaroncohn]

Think so? Search for this video: Flea and Chad Smith Jam Session

[drummachine5787]

chad smith is not that good of a drummer

[burntoast]

Are you shitting me? Chad is one of the most underated drummers ever. He has so much soul and style. To bad youll never under stand what im talking about. Go play your fall out boy

[drummachine5787]

r u kidding? i hate fall out boys. that new punk shit sucks

[Berserker74]

neither are you

[Qadmanuk]

loook who is chattin sh*t

[Powerflippy]

you don't know what you're talking about

[FenderStratLightBlue]

haha wat a spanner. Chad smith is the most underrated amazing guitarist ever! Bye!

[Mike3303]

Guitarist...think you meant drummer?

[geesoul]

its one pedal, its not a double pedal, don´t try this at home kids, you may hurt yourself!!! :D

[TRM214]

meh, is more of a jam than a solo

[evizaer]

That was the MD Festival 2005, I think. I was there. It was so awesome! I'd recommend any drummer and/or fan of amazing drumming to go.

[MajestyofRock]

Those ghost notes are hyper awesome

[xXRedJenXx]

yup, hes been eatting drums again!

[wetsand8]

BAHAHAHAHA thats funny  CHAD ROCKS

[xXRedJenXx]

:D woooo chad! i've ALWAYS wanted to play drums, finaly, im going to do something about it.

not to mention he's funny as fuck.

[Mike3303]

I hear the cowbell is hard to digest.

[Westcroft]

I'm awestruck... I'm pretty sure that's with a single bass pedal. I find it intense how he uses his drumstick to simulate double bass

[iamnick]

Yeah it is, he only uses a single pedal

[nomassbill]

lmao!!! simply brillinat
