Will Ferrell is a good drummer!

[Mooose201]

You know when you're fappin' like a monster and right as you're about to pop, all of a sudden you very abruptly stop?

That's essentially what happened in this video.

[DrumChannelOfficial]

@carcassgrindcorpsesc Hi ,thanks for your question. Drum Channel and DW are completely separate companies. Drum Channel has no endorser affiliation and all artists are welcome!

[SubwayStar7]

@carcassgrindcorpsesc Separate, but yeah for some reason a lot of the artists on there tend to play DWs. Just an interesting coincidence.

[Rushfan551]

Imagine Chad Smith with a double pedal...

[christbatt05]

[306Phantom]

Dammit Brennan, Dale told you to stay out of the Beat Laboratory

[MidAtlanticOfficials]

@306Phantom the only reason hed say that is because he was afraid of getting embarrased by his tasty grooves.

@wayne1515 Hi, yes... we are waiting on confirmation, but we are planning to have him in the studio this month!

[wsdrummer06]

@DrumChannelOfficial why cobus? he really isnt to the level all the greats you currently run on this channel are.

[valeriogchannel]

@wayne1515 cobus? does it bring the water to chad? because when you see a drummer like chad, cobus seems to be useless.

[Giveupthegh0st]

@wayne1515 fuck off... I'd rather watch Chad Smith any day of the week.

[drda94]

[OffdaHeezy69]

[CarlyeOfChandler]

[MungisTooth]

[TheWackywavyful]

chad is so underrated :/

[drumsanddrumming]

Chad is pretty good and great inspiration!

[SaludaUser]

after his insults to pearl he doesent deserve to be seen on that kit

[EFRAINISAID]

@thomascompton800 Chad uses his Pearl Signature snare.

[thomascompton800]

anyone know what snare drum chad uses, i think its a pearl sensitone

[spacitydrummer4JC]

Why'd it cut off there!? At least let em finish the measure!

[RokkerxDD]

Chad looks like a young Will Ferral.

[ibanezmetalman]

@RokkerxDD Hes older than Will Ferral

[AwesomeVideosHere]

@RokkerxDD Funny you should say that b/c Chad is about 5yrs older than Will.

[omarfusion]

FU@KING AMAZING!.... were can i find more of this?

[teaspoon103084]

dude i'm not gonna lie I used to didn't even like chad like that , but seeing him now? Dude just earned my respect

[melodicdeathscene]

Chad Smith is Awesome, But fuck the the guitarist is uninspiring. He's another fuckin' dime a dozen, with uninteresting licks.

[evilcarnies]

I actually shouted at my computer when the video cut off.

[SebaChannel]

look that pedal

just one! and chad hit it so fast that if you listen you can hear almost 3 pedals!! lol

[TheSlaiden]

I hate the sound of drums such as this. did not really hear the sound merges. Really don't hear the sound, it merges with the sound guitar.

[musiccalgary]

Incredibly predictable blather. Perfect for any local music college jury. :)

[EpicShenanigansChuck]

i really love tihs band, to be honest i did not expect this from chad smihtm and he is now my greatets influence.

[bigloag1]

Is It just me or does he look like will farrell?

[thomascompton800]

its sped up

[Tarck452]

I know it's been said before, but Chad really does look like Will Ferrell. Or maybe Will Ferrell looks like Chad?

[adamania]

Why doesn't Chad's toms sound like shit...always?

[mikolene97]

Wait, sorry for the ignorance but who's on drums, haha jk

[DrEviscerator666]

shredding on a strat!

[mosilflutil10]

quality elevator music,

[heyhello158]

Wow that bassist is awesome, well they all are but hey

[DaNDaNdoRJ]

Chad is awesome!!

[Massy012]

Forgive me for saying, I didn't know Chad Smith was such an amazing drummer.

[therealtreeguy65]

Damn!

[xXXExiledXXx]

i think he looks like david hasselhoff more then will ferrell

[XXOAPTRAGEDY]

HOLY SHIT, look at the way he's sliding on the fucking pedal. And for the people bringing up Matt Greiner you can't compare two drummer especially not when they play different genres have different technique, different drummers have different playing styles so quit trying to compare them on whos better or worse.

[nickyboy200]

good thinking mate... :)

[INBdcINB]

Eargasm.

[alienbusa]

I didn't know that Will Ferrell played drums!!!! He should wear the Elf costume when he plays!

[OUZOKU104]

okay, i know alot of people are tired of the will ferrel/ chad smith jokes, but THAT WOULD BE FREAKIN HILARIOUS!!!

[KrashGekko]

@alienbusa hate to disapoint ya, it isnt will ferrel. his name is on the video's title

[IchMagSechs]

Death Match.!!!

[oftennoother]

Well said Columbine1818

[COLUMBINE1818]

Quite the shuffle. On another note.. yes there are other drummers noted for the same shuffle Bernard Purdie, John Bohnam, and the lesser known Dave Turncrantz, but It is important to say that no one is better than the other. They are all professionals and simply going by musical taste and personal preference to decide which on is better is irrellavent and pointless. Lets focus on the technique and skill rather than debate our personal favorites.

[ihatespongebob]

dave turncrantz is the shit

..lulz

[stiltonchees]

@COLUMBINE1818 THANK YOU.

[bfmv640]

Matt Greiner wins.

[thesameandnotthesame]

Matt Greiner always wins :)

[rydeenisok]

that was very intense...

[iuricastro22]

GREAT!

[reassert]

Chad's performance in MD2005 made me so disappointed, but he seems to get alot of upgrade during these few years. Keep going, Chad!!

[TheParadoxDrummer]

that was kinda cool.

[sparkles67]

@TheParadoxDrummer THAT RIGHT FOOTS GOT NOTHIN ON NICKO'S RIGHT FOOT!!!

[NickoMcBrainRulez]

haha true

[TheKickassdrummer]

This guy aint shit!!! I'll smoke his ass like a ham hock!!!

[shelf1122]

LOOK AT THAT FOOT GO! wow what beast!

[Izajmusicman]

God must have given Chad his right foot.

[4StringDomination]

I think a lot of pracitce did...

[adds102]

Or John Bonham..

[TheLiesette]

he's not THAT fast.

[General9313]

@Izajmusicman Na. He gave it John Bonham

[MrSatanochio]

@Izajmusicman I think god`s sitting at his drum kit thinking "what the fuck have I done"

[zuchinim]

@Izajmusicman alles technic und mukulatur;)

[SantaSeeker181]

@Izajmusicman Technique Foot-Leg

[MrMojoRising506]

@Izajmusicman I think god gave his right foot to john bonhamm, and it was passed on to chad once he passed away.

[NewDarkAges13]

what crash is that AA series cymbal he's using? im liking it alot

[an225gd]

its either a 19" medium crash or a 19" rock crash

[slamajama581]

the link didn't wokr

[itssti]

groovey  :)

[danieljordison0793]

he would kick some mayor ass with a double pedal just look at what he can do with one foot , now imagine that x2

[hogie1525]

chad smith might have the fastest right foot in rock history besides john bonham

[datommaster]

george kollias

[ExecuteCommand]

to be fair he said rock not death metal and chad doesnt use those amazing direct drive pedals

[MrBlue707]

jojo mang

[hujjer]

Might have, but have you heard of Mike Johnston?

[ScratSniff]

jojo mayer
