Cobus - Dave Matthews Band - Where Are You Going? (Drum Cover)

[1992ZachB]

this song is so hard to work the hi hat to haha

[robertmickomasa]

Don't need to hit replay, installed an auto replay button :D

[484Elias]

Very nice Cobus! :)

[woodswims]

@makatawhs If you're so educated then maybe you can start showing us. Cover dozens of songs, with completely different styles of playing. I would really love to see you try to match Cobus. It's a drum cover, not research paper. He has so much flow and feel in everything he does. He doesn't have to do exactly what Carter does, and he doesn't have to play the exact way that Carter does. It would also be nice to see you actually form a legitimate sentence, instead of just using ellipsis every time.

[makatawhs]

@strongdrums... Uneducated? I think not... In this style of playing cobus has no groove or feel... Like the difference between mike portnoy and Steve gadd... Both technically sound but that's about all they share musically... If you don't understand or can't see this you my friend are the uneducated one.. Amateur

[19craiggy87]

@makatawhs So lemme get this straight.. you're a 30 yr old man tearing down someone 2/3rd's your age who's probably accomplished more in the past few years than you have in your life and calling others uneducated.. must be a pretty sweet life you got there. Congratulations, you my friend are a douche bag. Have fun envying anyone who succeeds where you probably failed.

Sincerely,

the people who don't really give a shit what you think.

[makatawhs]

@ggga5 ... If he isn't trying to sound like carter why is he playing his song and trying to replica exactly what carter does chops and all?

[aaronwhitney13]

im going to where that drum set is then im going back home thats where

[survivingrabbit]

I'm no super man I have no answers? Cobus you are a superman!!

[tobywayne]

cobus is great !

[makatawhs]

Not even close but a good try none the less

[ggga5]

@makatawhs not even close to what? he isnt trying to sound like carter

[MrSirbassist]

@makatawhs your just jealous. i will be looking forward to your cover in the future. please upload and let me know bud. cus i wanna see how u stack up, if you think cobus did less than great at this song.

[XxStrongDrums1996xX]

@makatawhs You are an uneducated child. Don't make any more comments until you learn your shit.

[Orpheaspanayiotopou]

cobus your amazing and this song for you is a piece of cake ...

[mayerrocks]

Carter would be proud! amazing cover!!

[2112Benny]

Good stuff :) ddrum is the best drum makers in my book.

[Gman9855]

[cashe18]

[thebestever5050vids]

@UndoMy99 AGREED!

[chickenmarbles1]

damn youve done like every song on my drum jam playlist

[CameronCEO]

hey what kind of snare are you using? i been looking for a good snare but dont know where to start.

[FiftyThousandSuns]

@CameronCEO In this cover it's the udrum Cherry Bomb I think.

[b0uGhTbYChrist]

@CameronCEO its a Red Cherry Bomb Snare about 500$ i think, go to your local music shop they should be able to help

[claydrummer05]

my fav vid of his =)

[dude249]

If Carter Beauford saw this, he woud be in shock. It is that amazing

[Landeux]

Awesome dynamics........fk'ng awesome!! Cobus = God!

I watch your Vids every day and never get tired of em.. always something diffrent..

Unlike other drummers on youtube who do covers..they do same fills on every bar, same style on other vid they did it's so repatative...

[meongmania]

this is soo beautiful. great talent. i hope i'll see your name someday in the drummers hall of fame.

[TheRiSiB1E]

0:26 .. getting a nice fanny fringe going on there

[UVTex534]

27 people dont know where they r going

[waffledude117]

do a grateful dead song or phish. all it is jamming, theres no set drum track

[idontwannagotobed]

im losing my virginity to this song--period.

[TheFuckingJungleBaby]

@idontwannagotobed NICE JOB!

[nassosa]

love your cover man! I'm new in drumming and thought I'll give this song a go... Thanks it's really helpful

[juraovc]

cool boy ))

[CoryBrown77]

Glad you put your own twist on it yet remained true to the song. Great job!

[Sharpshooter226]

what kinda snare is that and how did u tune it so fucking great?

[mswrecker05]

marry me cobus!

[Rowsol84]

Carter is the man.

[rage542638]

What type of head dose he use on the snare drum in this video?

[93Bohnam]

This is sick cobus, can you play some more DMB songs? like #41 or ants marching, Drive in drive out? really good drum songs.

[shivoron]

Uncannily briliant, Cobus.

[ashleyjane5195]

I love your stuff, but when i found this song by you it became even better. Ive been listening to Dave since i was little and and youre so amazing (: You put your heart into the music not just playing what it is! (:

[IAmTheLaw9991]

Really good stuff mate, I'd be really impressed if you did Drive in Drive Out

[MurderCity95]

1:22 The fly came out of the bass drum stressed by Cobus's noise after MMMBop

[patman173]

Ive noticed cobus chokes back really far on his stick.... yet he has so much control.

[IronJaaws]

Very good cover, obviously the covers for breaking benjamin and such will get more views, but DMB is so clean and smooth. Great job

[raudelmarquez]

Does anyone know what kind of paiste cymbals those are???? also are they thin,medium,or rock?

[Farweight]

@raudelmarquez They're PST5's, I do believe. And I might be wrong, but I think the Ride is a medium, the Hi-hat's a medium, and the left crash is a rock. again, I could be wrong man, but that's what I see.

[HEADPHONEJAY]

dude you cover almost all of my favourite songs :D your awesome keep it up

[James24884]

@poppinawheelie dick. i want some biscuits.

[mouldyteabag]

this just makes me happy to watch :)

[CrazyForAcoustic]

Oh im sorry.. was that my replay button getting raped? >=] <3.

[BRISSLEBRISSLEGABE]

YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY

[TexAgs54]

Dave Matthews Band is amazing.. great drumming man!

[ZeusLoren]

when Carter plays its totally tight but still maintains the scene of calmness which i never ever found in any other drum cover o any drummers playin this song including myself...but u just sounded perfectly aligned in every sense and justice to the song...damn u terrific !!!

[iwantyourhole]

kids got talent

[izzbiz12]

hi claire

[jakeprobst]

I love DMB and I love this cover too. Every serious Drummer needs to explore DMB.

[Patronux]

Nice, this made me feel good [=

[virtualpigmaster]

so controlled its incredible

[LostCallProductions]

Carter B. would be proud, my friend.

[ash0macd]

Where am I going? To steal your kit and your talent :)

[hamtownsoccer]

dude nice set like bosshog im thirteen and i listen to all types of rock and love it. but dave is my all time fav. the drumbeat at 1:30 is annoying the hell out me as i try to figure it out though

[hamtownsoccer]

dude nice set like bosshog im thirteen and i listen to all types of rock and love it. but dave is my all time fav.

[shoshonja]

Very nicely played mate. Love the sound of those pst5s. Takes me back a few years :)

[jacobniece]

lol mistaken for steve miller at first but good band still lol

[sgarner101]

havent heard this sence i was like 5 wow

[TheJoemoze]

This one of my favorite drum covers on you tube !!!!

[BenM6521]

everything you do is ALWAYS perfect.

[boogger321]

great song ..love itt

[mungo6000]

Good to see someone can cover avenged sevenfold, yet so beautifully cover dave with excellence. You have great horizons

[Mmmyess]

Very much in Carter's style. It'll be interesting to see if this more syncopated, jazzy drumming style catches on in more popular music, or if it will remain the realm of more esoteric "jam bands." Regardless, you've got a mountain of talent. I hope you find your musical peers, including a top flight singer and (of course) songwriters. Paired with the right band, the sky's the limit for you! (But you already knew all that....) Keep on keepin' on!

[burnedbytheword]

Balls to take on anything by Carter Beauford. Love the hat work.

[ecidol]

WHERE ARE YOU..PLAYING!?!?!

[AshtonMontgomery]

@ecidol a church

[Lutterfly2]

wow

[tecabealf]

muy buena cancion

muy buena base

[Rosoty67]

what snare drum do u use?

btw youre amazing

[RightOnBobbyD]

@Rosoty67 in this video its the cherry bomb from UDRUM, but in his latest videos hes usin his own custom LDS Cobus Potgieter snare

[Rosoty67]

what snare drum do u use?

[19craiggy87]

what is the instrument that plays from 2:22 to 2:45 does anyone know? is it a clarinet, soprano sax or just daves guitar all synthed out?

[chrishavird]

@19craiggy87 Pretty sure it is a clarinet. Definately not his guitar.

[19craiggy87]

@chrishavird Yeah thats what i was thinkin but i just threw it out there incase my ears were right off lol

[jazzpiano10]

@19craiggy87 Soprano sax

[19craiggy87]

@jazzpiano10 thanks for the help :)

[bigred200]

man you really are amazing,everyone of your videos are just so awsome, i love it,it inspires me tokeep on drumming

[Darkestone46and2]

THAT'S IT, I'M GETTING BOSE SPEAKERS! And I wish you good thangs in life, man.  That's what this music does.....spooky good. And beautiful.

[mouldyteabag]

I like how you're South African, and so is Dave. :D

[DoctorDARKSIDE]

Man, let me tell you... You're just AMAZING !! Excellent groove, balance and style expression ! Carter must be proud of you !!

[NoobTubre]

I can honestly say if I close my eyes, I can imagine Carter Beauford just playing on the screen... I can't express how amazing this is... Amazing cover

[BosshogProductions]

Did you know Dave is South African? Man Cobus am I glad your a Dave fan. Dave is amazing. You seen any of his concerts? I haven't yet, mostly cuz im too young, hopefully he doesnt get older before I do.

[NoobTubre]

@BosshogProductions I feel you. My older brother has introduced me to Dave... He is absolutely amazing. It makes me so happy that Cobus has covered this song... It shows so much because alot of people don't listen to Dave.... And I love him. Great job Cobus.

[BosshogProductions]

@NoobTubre A lot of people do listen to Dave, but not much of the younger generation. Im 13 and my parents introduced me to Dave when I was younger, and have loved his band ever since.

[TheRealEzzy]

@BosshogProductions That's not even close to being true.  Me and all my friends lost DMB and we're 18/19

[BosshogProductions]

@TheRealEzzy There are a few awesome people out there that like Dave too, and I love em. Did you mean to say love instead of lost?

[YLHooligan]

@BosshogProductions Have you ever been to a Dave Matthews Band concert, its always packed and sold out there are so many fucking people who like dave and if they dont they dont have good taste in music. next birthday ask fro DMB tickets hah its so worth it

[BosshogProductions]

@YLHooligan dude, my parents say im too young as a flippin 14 year old. i know way more than they think i know. I asked for tickets for my bday a month ago and my parents said i cant... Its just a time for my parents to get drunk without me knowing about it...too many chicks goin for dave and too many peeps getting drunk. good thing theyre all friendly enough to stay together till im fuckin 21... theyre soo much better live too, and unfortunately the closest i have to a concert is youtube.

[GHProProductions]

@BosshogProductions Dave fucking rules. My mom plays nothing but Dave in her car and it's been that way since I was born.

[loggerbomb]

@BosshogProductions

DMB's style is pretty mature, so kudos for you being this young and having an appreciation for it. Myself, I always loved the drumming used in the band, it's like the drummer is making love to his drumset and just not beating on it like other bands.

[BosshogProductions]

@loggerbomb haha yeah carter beauford is amazing

[ndw9311]

@BosshogProductions The younger generation being...? Try almost every high school has a shit ton that listen to him. Sorry to burst your bubble here, but kids flock to him.

[BosshogProductions]

@ndw9311 not where i live dude. I wish I was where you were. Nobody my age(14 now) has even heard of him. And I go to the biggest highschool in the state too. Man, I wish I was there. I'm not a stalker, but I do know, where you go, is where I wanna be.

[T3ddisen]

This video has gotten too little attention if you ask me. It's actually one of my favourite videos with you... Not because what you do is so cool and difficult. It's because this video shows a different side of you and your drumming. It's not you, the cameras and the fills this time... It's just you, the beat, the groove and the feeling. I love it. This is what drumming is about.

[izzbiz12]

every piece from carter I have to play on slo-mo just to understand the rhythm, its never basic he is so advanced

[splashy44]

cool!

[girltant]

you have a very nice groove. this coming from a professional drummer.

[WTFmusition]

You're drum set gave me an orgasm

[kurt2890]

@WTFmusition his drum set is meh

[17shadowoftheday]

@kurt2890 agreed. cheap paiste and sabian cymbals. i only like his snare and his triggers

[kurt2890]

@17shadowoftheday thank you! i don't like his snare, though, i think it is very tight, i'd loosen it up a bit, but that's a personal preference

[MrMahgoo]

@17shadowoftheday It's not always about the quality of the cymbal but more the sound it makes. Sounded amazing

[MrMahgoo]

@kurt2890 The drum set doesn't make the drummer. The drummer makes the drum set

[zbronzetech]

@WTFmusition yeah, gave me "eargasm" :)

[67636763]

carter is there youre in youre basement

[cammie733]

simply incredible

keep it up

pursue your music

[disgustopated]

wtf, you're horrible. you have shit technique, sloppy joe.

[brandonsmith666]

@disgustopated dude, your just trying to stir trouble...go fuck off

[WTFmusition]

@disgustopated dude ur probable a fagget who just sits in ur room all day wishing u could drum like cobus so stfu

[54DUNLOP]

@disgustopated go suck a dick

[MultiMusicMind]

@disgustopated

okay wtf... he is best on youtube i think lol

[mmmbenz]

i respect all drummers, being one myself. but everyone knows nobody can play like carter

[MrBillsey]

@11banger - You are clearly an idiot who obviously has'nt taken the time to watch the rest of his videos, no feeling?! Bah!

[67636763]

great job but missing doubles on bass drum watch george 07

[DjRiches]

Carter Beauford is the master of this song LOL

[snugglebear97653]

@11banger yep, i agree with bgdf. watch his other vids, hes really talented. or this guy is just a tool

[mmmbenz]

whats up with the electric drums? get some real percussion

[bgdf]

@11banger from one drummer to another.. You obviously haven't watched all of his videos.

[moldylocks123]

@bgdf yeh lmao

[sanzborja]

WOW he's amazing

[Matsku195]

I don't think it matters, what kind of sound set he has. Cobus can make any sound set sound like god's gift!

[sushiquad]

it makes me so happy that people can drum amazingly at a quiet volume

[itskenotime]

Nice going man, very impressed!

[balberty9]

This and the Incubus "nice to know you" covers are your best and I watch them once a week it seems.

[balberty9]

This and the Incubus "nice to know you" covers are your best and I watch them once a week it seems.

[balberty9]

This and the Incubus "nice to know you" covers are your best and I watch them once a week it seems.

[JackRoss2112]

what tom heads does he use?

[Patcha1993]

@mprata729 He leaves the original drums in there. Thats why on the opening screen it says "EXTERNAL Drums by Cobus." He just nails each song so well that we cant hear the original drums lol

[MartaDzika]

great sound, great cover :)

[gmaulnoob2]

wow this is like ur best drum cover bro love this one the most man

[mrapp718]

this is awesome!

[slashing23]

1 of theBEST drum covers artist in the bizz

[Matsku195]

tags XD looks like i've already commented on this one earlier.. :D but what ever this is just amazing!

[MrHahamin]

thats a awesome cover dude keep the remo heads on your snare ive listened to a few of your vids and the snare sounds better with a remo

[ilovewwebrittany]

he looks tired or sick or sad but great vid

[paczasmd]

You seriously need to cover Grey Street....that would be f-ing sweet.

[Matsku195]

1:10 gr8 and if i could write every good spot here, i would have to write every second of this video. u rock, man! :D

[uvbeentangod]

@reditreefrogs he doesnt, he just makes it so his drums are louder and take over the original drums

[mprata729]

@uvbeentangod no, there's a program that can take the drums out of a song. just don't know which one it is

[uvbeentangod]

@mprata729 on his website though he says he doesn't do that...

[mprata729]

@uvbeentangod so what does he do?

[babyrix]

cool set dude

[EuJaViTV]

hey Cobus man your da best .

see of some of my vids if u want to, i wanted to ask u for making a cover to us youtube fans the song is from 1 of the youtube most wattched video and it was 15 days ago and it already has 22 milion hits so.. the song is from DAve Days and its called my last song for miley

[othreeeleven]

you need to cover the live version of grey street by DMB..i mean if you can fit it in your schedule

[lowriderz525]

for your coloring dont be afraid to do more rolls. carter likes to have quick roll burst and some bell work but, either way, good work! :D

[jrobb2855]

where do you play? it looks like you play in some auditorium when the camerais at ypu back but when its facing you it looks like a house in your backround...you should make a video talking about where you polay and about your set...i wanna see more of n outside view of it...THANKS:)

[Drumlinek29]

This is so... Spiritual... :)

I really like it...

[jmwhitebass]

this was a great cover man, good job

[alaitain]

i like dave matthews band. and corbus is doing a great job..and he so cute and expressions are just perfect.

[Aspinel100]

the groove from 1:12 is siick!
