[bonzontamadrummer]

Damn that's a killer snare

[tooldrummer]

If your goal was to cover it exactly how it was recorded you NAILED it mate. Did you chart it out? You seemed to be reading... or just looking at the same place above your hi hats for most of the track.

[TheStick16]

Very tide. Like it. The china sounds nice to.

[LilloNeto]

Snare Drum! fuckin amazing.

[thedrum205]

die snear ist cool :D

[adteasoup]

good job

[tripjams]

nice kit. i c u got it all set uf like chad

[Weitug]

zzzzzzzzz

[RiideCymbal]

Sick.

[MrRockstart]

That snare has a Sexy Sound hahaha

[c0d3x001]

i tell you not even chad smith plays this song live as straight as you did.... give yourself some space and some musical freedom and just kick out some fills when you want.... amazing cover though...good job

[lockofthedeath]

dude, wheres the SOUL?! u should be squirming around the kid and shaking ur head like ur having a stroke dude!

But other than that, great cover!

[Mistkerl6]

crazy room your in

[leodqv]

congrats man, excellent cover!

[sbowman128675]

DUDE, awesome cover. your just lacking your Chadness. You hinder the groove sooooo much. its just not the same. its like you sucked the soul outa the song. Not trying to sound mean, sorry if I do :(

[SKippy68189]

OK, maybe not air stick, not THAT much empty space, but yeah it has something to do with the accents on the snare thats throwing me off, can't groove the bridge uuugghh

[SKippy68189]

Any tips on gettin through the bridge? My meter always goes off for some reason at that part. Do you count through it, or maybe air stick to keep time? I don't know why i have this problem

[LilloNeto]

great job!

one of the best of the red hot's!

[TheDaninja]

Awesome! Perfectly matches the song. I dont agree you have to smile all the time :-D A bit of stiffness has not killed anybody to my knowledge. Especially when you have to concentrate. Well done.

[arlexYEAH]

Nice playing

but man SMILE! Enjoy what you do!

[10929678539]

You even set up your china crash like chad lol

[GoGoNards]

probly my most favorite chili peppers song

[Blindbard14]

Buenisimo!! mucho groove....como el amigo Chad....

[RHCP1231]

You play very well....

[rossidanrossi]

I've just started searching around for drum track and such and just happen to come across your stuff. I really like Chad's playing and you do a great JOB...very very well done and you don't look stifff..you like just fine. I look forward to be able to learn a few things from the rest of your videos. Peace Brother....keep on drumming!

[drumdigger]

Great job. You are not stiff at all. Quite relaxed I would say. And you are playing Istanbul Cymbals - even cooler :)

[burntoast]

Way to play the song note for note. Fag. Haha, Jk. Chad's my hero. Good Job.

[d15er]

sounds great...rock out more...its better to watch someone who's into it

[cvcgac]

what drumset?

[nevbot222]

i really like ur chili peppers covers :D

[funkrock94]

a little bit scolar, but very cool though

[0929joy]

.... Great drumming...

[MrPaiste]

nice sound!

great cover

5/5 Stars

[biringhead]

Great cover and kit.

Maybe you should try to move more like Chad Smith does.

Then it will be more entertaining to watch and you will also play better, trust me ;)

(I know I suck at english)

[cribtv]

you didn't make any mistakes!

GREAT COVER!!!!

[HockeyG33]

@biringhead your english is fine... 

[LightningRiderMGO]

@biringhead your english was fine, dude

[Hodge329]

A little stiff...

lol

Very good job playing the same as Chad Smith, pretty good technique.

[SKippy68189]

And now we all know the guy on the albums is really a little asian studio musician............... :) just kidding, awsome job man, note for note perfect!

[yoyo2121nov8]

lovin that snare what is it?

[ruurdje]

Pearl SensiTone Classic II

[tsaun44]

pretty sick, but loosen up a bit

[furzususu]

ye, you`re one of the rare ppl on youtube who rly "play the drums", i like your stuff....bit stiff though but cool ;D

[TimTehDrummer]

That snare is sick.

[rjproud]

hey what drum mics do you use?

[zbennyboy]

[motley666cobain]

chads still better but that was pretty sick bro

[scorpionindesert]

al vids are very cool

[Toony1995]

hey bud :)

lovin the vid...

nice kit

Keep up the drummin :D

[raymandrums]

looks like a pearl. one of the oldish ones now though

[rhcpkzi]

its a pearl elx..

[coolman1245712]

sick kit.... and you don't need to make the high hat go down so much on the ride symbol.... you only need to press it on notes 2 and 4

[abeo4]

it can be alot easier to play like that when playing fast kick beats

[Phishical]

Deadly sounding kit son, I know you already said you were stiff but... the quicker you learn to get your body into your music, the quicker you'll notice your rhythm improve. Keep it goin' man you can only go up with drums

[mikethedrumaniac]

2:04 I can't play that part, guess I have to learn it from YOU!

[murraybeans123456]

nice one man love the sound of ur kit

[MitchStefano67]

[mindeverynote]

[Liquidlight26]

[iSeduce]

[urajokeMC]

[Aleksand89]

[erlia1919]

nice work guy...but try to play the base louder

[bikeNdrum]

stiff!

[bobfranke95]

i love the snare, i'm jealous. by the way, you are very good.

[mathulerin]

pour tant il joue tres bien, il fait du copier coller. C'est nul

[mathulerin]

C'est trop mou y se passe rien. il bouge meme pas

[metalhead55]

sick version dude.

[SvenIsHere]

i dont like your snare but other than that great cover

[metalhead55]

they snare is fucking awesome. just like chad's!

[a1Drummer07]

liked it..loosen up and have fun

[TMM93]

What cymbals are you using? They sound great!

[drummerhenrik]

Coool!

[danklas124]

For the bass drum sound, i dont know how he gets it with pearl drums. But alot of the gretch drums have that solid, fat sound.

[adamgergich]

Thats was really good, very solid

You have a great sounding drum kit

What type is it? and what type of cymbals r u using?

[crg12]

does anyone know how to get chads smiths bass drum sound??(like in this vid) i really like that fat thick sound...ive got a sound similar but not quite what im lookin for by looseing up my batter skin..but still not what im lookin for...any ideas

[ptrLeGrand]

I'm not 100% sure of it, but I think he just lowers skin tension of his drums. Try to fix em a lil less solid..

[ptrLeGrand]

oh, sorry lol, I just suggest ya the exact thing you already did xD

[JoZ0Z]

i mean only this songs lyrics of course :) I love their other lyrics

[JoZ0Z]

RHCP ROCKS! I just don't like these lyrics ;O

[azza998]

dude good vid but put some feel into it u no man:D

[Cocox2]

excelente!!!!!!!!!!

[fender1810]

You are great like Chad :D

[mariio86]

nice job!

[funkadelic1992]

no grace notes, my vids better

[fattmattrules]

wat drums u use?

[njd118]

nice job man

[geesoul]

its good but too static...for a studio recording okay but play some groovy ghost notes!

[Str00pwafel]

wheres the fealing dude?

u need to ROCK not just sit ur ass down

[filip1218]

not bad

[Jyrtza]

pretty impressive !

[Lx94]

this drummer is perfect!!!!

[AeroGrunt]

Chad Smith is much better than this guy right here :)

[TheOp3rationMD]

He also does it for a living and is much older and more experienced. Never compare a cover artist to a professional because the pro's wrote the music and have played it for thousands of people hundreds of times.

[tltxhzj]

no duh

[kode1111]

impressive dude

[Rholoff]

All asians are programmed. Haha!

[thewhochilipeppersU2]

To fuck the drums!

[thearcticwombats]

Anthony Kiedis doesn't actually like this song lol

[thewhochilipeppersU2]

I love it!

[stargazera]

Yeah haha, that's what he said in Scar Tissue.

[lambofgoddrummer07]

any1 who wants to bash chad can listen to his drumming in blood sugar if they still have doubts. 5/5 cover bro loved it!

[gamafon]

nice snare!!

[metalfreak27]

Nice motion and grip on your right hand :] Did you remove the Snare/s on the snare drum?

Overall good choice for to drum to, Chad Smith FTW :]

Oh and I agree to the few comments below, get more into the song :]

[michael9110]

i've got that drum set!! it's fucking awesome!!! lol

[lilhamster11]

What type of cymbals are you playing?

[kdista1]

i love this snare sound...

[Bisqueman5]

that snare sound like a tissue box

[EvKbassdude07]

you look really bored

[BassFace316]

this is a really hard drum-line!

[GedStan]

Everything`s played perfect, but without emotions, so a watcher can`t get into that whole thing you play :| ( I don`t know, maybe you`re holding it inside)

[schaag]

no feelings.technique is ok, but i feel nothing.but that´s no problem...open a beer,have some fun and put on a happy face...you are drumming and not murder somebody.

[miniteporochito]

looser ! ! !

[crowdtotheshore]

Good drumming man, how about some expression though??? Feel the music dude! You look like you are about to fall asleep. Search "inbedlam heartbeat" on youtube and check that drummer out. i think you would like it!

[27feb2004]

beautiful wrist movement! for all i care! the movement in the wrist is all you need! you're drumming is good! seems to me that RHCP is too easy for you!

[lgreenstien]

your snare sounds pretty sweet

[SLMSKA]

I've got the chad smith signature snare 2 week ago and trust me that snare have a single sound

[chilipepperdrummer]

what pedal u using dude? ive tried this song but not enough recoil on mine to get that speed.

[32165498765432165498]

dude! ur good. tight as!!

i hav the same snare as u aswell. good snare ey?!

[lambofgoddrummer07]

your insane brother keep bangin those skins!

[Dukie4Life08]

He was right on point all the way, well done brother!

[iHod]

Aww man that was syncronized. Im lovin it.

:D :D

[jweidner1971]

how did you get ur snare to sound like that

[superscatch]

tunning well....^^;;

[worldseries102]

What kind of snare do you have,like a 14x8,or a pi14x5 piccolo

[superscatch]

Pearl SensiTone Classic II 14*5

[Drummerspaz]

WHY ARE YOU SO STIFF!!!

JEEEEEEZZZ

[MusicBilly123]

Because hes not human he was programmed to do this why do u think hes doing so perfect.....a chip oviously

[LosFraggles]

he feels the groove perfect. just because he's not moving so much? that playing was perfect

[12345porelculo]

very good man.

[fede337]

your bad man.. first learn how to play the drums.

[tom4000tom]

good cam

[tom4000tom]

not bad 4 stars!!!

[locofelizz]

he sucks he´s out the time. he did not feel the music, is a robot, the cymbal at the end is very inappropiate. keep studing please.!!!!

[sharry142536]

Yes, you're right, he has got no groove, he's a robot..!

[pilotboy281]

Dude you are amazing do you have a pearl set because that looks likes Chad Smith's set is it but overall sounds awesome.

[BR177]

How many of you can play along an entire song with precission? I think he is playing for the sound of it and maybe if you could see a Chad's record session you wouldn't be saying he does not look spirited.

[oakcustom]

good groove man !!! keep on rocking !!!

[FreakAAY]

little bit stiff, but flawless xD

[ce2287]

I love john frusciante

[JackJackBassplayer]

emotion now!

[lockstepgone999]

hes an awesome drummer! leave him alone he can obviously feel the groove some drummers show it while some are more laid back/chill

[boblevicking]

Super coooll!!!Vive The Drummers!!!

[evancamm]

play with more groove.. chad is a groove based drummer, that gives the feel to his music. feel it out more.

[desertsun666]

I'm sorry but as a drummer im allowed to say this! you can play but you are BORING!!! no one wants to see a stiff emotionless drummer! i see toooo many bands with drummers that can play but look like they got a drum stick up their ass! FEEEEEEL THE MUSIC!!!!!

Anyway rock on!

[superscatch]

i agree about that.

but i think, you don`t know how difficult play with original track!

it isn`t minus drum track.

i would show exactly same play as CD.

maybe chad can`t do.

so i cannot help playing some stiff.

check out my others video.

some are stiff some are feeeeel the music.

thanks

[afderqrfasdfsdagfajl]

:D:D yeah, i agree with you,dude

he can play drums,but he plays as he is sleeping

[popace]

Ok, ok, don't stuck here man! He plays ok... He plays awesome! Keep up the good work ;)

[drumsack]

fucking right...

[Einkaufstuete]

right :) I'm acting like kiedis during drumming xd with a smooth chad-stlye :) right! but this guy's real boring and this song ain't that difficult

[wang222]

1. if you're not reading tabs, then show some fucking emotion! you're a drummer dude!!

2. if you ARE reading tabs, then STOP!!! Tabs aren't for drummers dude! you gotta feel the music. i've been playing 9 years and that's what i love about them

you dont' look like you're enjoying yourself dude!! and that's what music is about after all isn't it??

[ahmadkhairul]

i think he's reading from drum tabs..that's why..he's great though

[wazzigood]

Oh come on - you're playing to CHAD - show some respect and start rocking! Don't get me wrong; you're good and all, BUT: you're supposed to enjoy playing - if it bores you - play top 40-stuff!

[pwiddy05]

for real dude enjoy your self

[nienietoperz]

boooringggggg

[jordbaker]

i love the sound of your snare x.

[footeux910]

that s good job !

The sound of your kit is awesome !

What of microphones do you use ?

[ayesoundmate]

hit the snare harder, with a rimshot and it will get more of a chad esque crack to it

[martinrotar]

god cover keep up

[Ezekpo2007]

Sos malisimo

[billycox]

good job man

[LedusZeppelinus]

ok, now play skinny sweaty man in a green suit!

[stefanizaa]

Dude you are very talented...you know...Well done !!!

[haljup]

You`re in way over your head, man!

Sorry! but your not even close to being close to make this a better version.

[drunkenmuzz]

look at that perfect form....try having some fun playing man

ur a decent drummer but loosen up a little its about getting into the music

[funkyliciousfunk89]

This is truth.

[beli891]

Where do record all this....?awnser please...

[superscatch]

my academy`s lesson room.

[ericcatalucci1313]

nailed it. though in my opinion you're lacking the attitude that makes the chili peppers so fucking cool. im not ripping on you or anything, you played the fuck out of this song and i havent seen a better cover.
