  • 2:34 epic fail

  • Cobus, you're ultra awesome to cover this one! \m/

  • thumbs up if we've found our new superman

  • i cant guess what that snare is... evans or remo? 

  • @lairhab Remo.

  • @nortsoldier yeah i cant understand why he uses evans now.. yaaaachhhh hahah

  • @lairhab same mate...i rly dont like evans...i had G1,G2 n they just blow...Remo has such a warm tone ( i have remo pinstripes) and there the best drumhead ive had by miles.

  • @nortsoldier amin to that, mate! cobus should use remo again :)

  • @nortsoldier I haven't lissten to remo drumheads, are they that good?

    sorry for my bad english

  • @nortsoldier agreed they are great

  • Completely overplayed for the song. There is no denying that he is good, but the song was overplayed to the point where it actually detracted from it. Even Travis Barker will hold back and support the music. Good playing and excellent technique though.

  • nice :)

  • dayumm

  • i didnt know gerard way plays the drums

  • bad ass cover COBUS.

    I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DRUM OFF!

    video on my page.

    along with other drum vids.

  • what kind of paiste is the ride? medium or rock? :)

  • one of my favorite videos on youtube right here

  • buena onda hermano eso si que  tocar bateria tu eres el doble de tgrabis barker

  • Cobus is proof that you don't need a big drumset to rock it out.

  • @MrBandNerdXD ummm..he has 6 drums including the bass and a bunch of high-end cymbals and equiment...your comment is invalid

  • @MrBandNerdXD or you can look at his most recent videos where all of his shit is expensive as hell and his kit is giant : /

  • @ElusiveWolf33 IMO his newest series isn't the greatest as the previous. But its still amazing.

  • @MrBandNerdXD Actually dude, this is pretty big drumkit.

  • @CJNconor Ah. sorry, i must be trippin balls or something. meant to post it on a another vid.

  • @CJNconor I wouldn't call it big. I guess a little larger than average, but it's not really big.

  • 1) Hold your breath.

    2) Copy all of these steps.

    3) Go to two other video.

    4) Paste it in the comments.

    If you can do all of this without breathing you're a good pot smoker

  • i love this song :)

  • Hmm... Since you got such a name :)

    Toevallig mogelijk dat je nederlands spreekt? :D

  • @Bjumpje in zuidafrika hebben ze ook dat soort achternamen. heb je ook wel eens in de vs en indonesie enzo

  • @PimMaxMusic Hmm logisch :p ok, bedankt ;) ( spreekt zgeen zuidafrikaans xD )

  • i wish u could be my travis barker in my band

  • Your videos are so perfect to learn songs thanks a lot deedlebag !

  • Dude ima drummer and i think you're amazing i think you could easily replace drummers like the rev and paramore's drummer you have the potential and the skill, but i just wanted to say ima big fan ive watched all of your drum covers repeatedly and your one of the people who has made me continue drumming your a great motivator and you should keep doing covers so thankyou Cobus Potgieter and i hope one you get in a band and start doing kick ass solo's p.s COME TO ENGLAND! XD

  • I bet it's not hard to get someone to sponser him

  • awesome man, i'm truly impressed

  • ...... his drums are worth more than my house.

  • Who gives a crap how much his cymbals cost?

  • fantastic...

  • pst5 cymbals are probly mid ranged

  • @whitexgreen yeah, they're kind of lower-mid range. I use PST5's and i really dont think they're beatable in terms of price and quality range. I tried out alternatives from zildjian, sabian and meinl and i gotta say in my opinion the PST5's stood head and shoulders above the rest. They're well giggable and recordable. I've not looked back at all since buying them :D

  • really good...i would love it if u beat the shit out of ya drums like travis does ;D looks more powerful somehow.

  • You look so much better with short hair. No homo.

  • PST5's is right in between buget cymbals and extre-equality cymbals in my opinion, even if they sound like best quality ever!

    also, nice cover. :]

  • Paiste PST 5 are just bargain cymbals!

  • I just wanna know if the Paiste Cymbal pack (High-hats, Crash, and Ride) is a good lasting cymbal set. Because I believe that's the one i'm going to get.

  • wow jy my 'n baie inpspired Cobus jou drom bedek het my geïnspireer om' n groot en het my gehelp om dit beter te dromme baie dankie! en jy regtig hierdie lied vasgespyker

  • i miss these covers.

  • PAISTE!!!!!

  • paiste 502 isnt cheap. pst 5 is medium and planet z is cheap istanbul isnt cheap

  • 7.1 surround sound with DD makes my glass shake in my room when I play your songs Loving it xD, you are right you look tired But I watched a lot of your vids and I have to say you do look like you enjoy it xD Keep it Up Great stuff :)

  • 7.1 surround sound with DD makes my glass shake in my room when I play your songs Loving it xD, you are right you look tired But I watched a lot of your vids and I have to say you do look like you enjoy it xD Keep it Up Great stuff :)

  • Very Good mate....Keep on!!!

  • why dont i know any good drummers like this guy all the drumers ive played with suck

  • @rizzo123456789

    He knows how to make his miced drumkit sound good. I think that's 75% of why we like his videos :)

  • @rizzo123456789 I'm not Cobus level but im pretty damn good, and good guitar players are a dime a dozen. Now a bass player that kicks ass and connects with me...i fear i will never meet one.

  • @thatoneguy17370 i agree....

  • @thatoneguy17370 Try Red hot chilli peppers their bassist is one of the best ever, watch 'Hump de bump'

  • @rizzo123456789 maybe you suck to :3

  • hah pst 5s dont sound that good !!! wht the hell lol nice cover tho!

  • your hat sounds amazing.

  • gum neir ek Sankebnam Gutnam! :)

    vink eptel goove neep afteka?

    Moet preferiz nie nuwe landeg

    Thumbs up if that sounded like South African :P

  • Your snare drum seems kinda off but that might just be me

  • U ROCK DUDE!

  • U ROCK DUDE!

  • What Paiste cymbals are those? I love Paiste! The sound of your hi-hat is amazing!

  • its easier to groove the opening verse when u constantly play your bass pedal, like hes doing. where as the recording he doesnt. its much tricker to play less notes, means you have to think. dont get me wrong, its baddass song/drum kit/ cover. love it

  • this sounds like age of empires 2 music.

    u know im right too faggots.

  • Good Drummer Someday I Can Play Drums Like Cobus And Travis Barker =)

  • I like your Ruffs

  • Very, very sick!

  • has travis barker sumhow reincarnated without even dying???

  • honestly i think he's better than travis barker

  • i can't believe someone is actually making a comparison with travis and cobus. cobus owns travis.

  • @mandipthapablink travis barker doesnt compare

  • @devspsn there is a reason cobus is covering barker and not the other way around ... argue whatever you want but the fact remains

  • @yalelax2012 Because Travis is famous. That's the fact

  • @devspsn you're just helping my point ... you don't get famous for no reason

  • Dude ur amazing! my band is playing this song so ya thanks for the video it helped us alot for the drums. I love the little roll you while hes singing the first line, u just barely notice it but it takes alot of skill to get that down perfectly. THIS IS AWSOME!

  • hahaha liam is this you? its billy

  • amazing job !!

  • hey boss cobus! :D tell me, what is ur favorite kind of music.. u've been playing drums all this time with different kind of music right? just wondering.. like where'd u get all those grooves.. and who's ur all time favorite drummer? and don't say that it's u hahaha thanks! :D

  • I think his favorite band is AvA

  • ooooohhh a miss on the crash at 1:04

    My favorite video on youtube!!!

  • @backspacc good eye. he barely missed it.

  • your stupid, he didnt miss shit

  • actually he did look at the video at 1:04 very carefully

  • @mmnjk99 you blind, he missed it >=))

  • your so inspiring!

    By the way, JIJ BENT GEWELIDIG, ek is nederlands

  • @deedlebag odd, i can see resemblences between the south african and Dutch language, i can read the south african writing, but when i hear it, it goes so damn fast xD, ur a Youtube Legend!! you'll be grand and famous one day you know!! Keep it up, ill see if i can get my Guitar skills up to your drumming skill lvl (= Greets, timosop

  • @deedlebag HE REPLIES!

  • @deedlebag Lol funny, I'm dutch but I can pretty much understand what you 2 are saying! :P

  • @ThunderDonkey gast kan jij dat lezen???

  • @uibal1984 beetje:

    "Ik zie nu (eers?) de 'Kyk ek leef'(denk 'kijk ik leef') op de achtergrond (hij heeft 't over een poster).

    Dat is waaraan ik denk als ik mijn nieuwe set (opslaan?) vandaag.

    Jij bent een grote inspiratiebron en een legende. Je moet er nooit mee ophouden"

    t'is nederlands met vage spelling, grammatica en af en toe een woord die nergens op slaat(opslaan bv xD)

  • @ThunderDonkey dat noemen we afrikaans :P

  • @deedlebag

    laat ik dan even in het nederlands reageren, kijken of jullie dit ook verstaan :D

    geweldig gedaan ! (:

  • @deedlebag BJORK BJORK BJORK

  • @F0Xe jy komt uit zuid- africa? ik kom uit nederland, taal lijkt veel op die van jou (en cobus ;) :O

    Great cover btw! :D like your style

  • Ek stem saam ! 100%

  • @F0Xe South-African, I assume? I'm dutch and can kinda understand what you're saying! Amazing lovely language :P much better than dutch

    Kan jij dit dan ook lezen?

  • @F0Xe I really wish i could talk to him...

  • @Guitarismylife1000 He's a lucky b**tard isn't he...

  • @kfredericks1 Very...

  • @Guitarismylife1000 can i ask how hes lucky?

  • dude i love your drumming.. i'll post some covers soon..

  • cymbals aren't cheap.

  • fuck you, you're so fucking awesome

    very good ! O_O

  • this is a good example of how you dont need to have the best stuff to be the best. hes using cheap cymbals but he kicks ASS

  • Those arent cheap cymbals

  • uh yeah they are when compared to the Zildjian K's and A customs most people use...one Zildjian K cymbal costs as much as the Paiste PST 5 universal set. sure they arent cheap but compared to most cymbals "pros" use this is cheap...but who cares this guy is amazing

  • yeh ive watched covers with a customs and these sound as good if not better. also in his overhead videos he was using a peice pearl export which is a pretty cheap kit too. yet you wouldnt know it

  • thought he uses the tama super star

  • i think he does in the new videos with a udrum cherry bomb snare. but in this one its an export. im 98% sure lol

  • No its a tama superstar

  • thats the drumkit he uses in 2008, before that he used a pearl export. i asked him this, as did someone else ithink

  • Yeah, i play 'em, obv not as good as this guy, he's amazing, but they o nicely with a tuned a kit, they don't 'match up' with lower end kits.

  • @cheeseheadchase PST5 actually are pretty affordable!

  • Comment removed

  • @cheeseheadchase haha true for us but for rich people they are

  • @cheeseheadchase speshaly compared to mine

  • @cheeseheadchase pst are a cheaper paiste cymbal

  • @WaSSupYo8o8 between the drums and the recording equipment it is probably upwards of 4000$. Just letting you know :D

  • @JFDrums1 he is just saying that pst 5's are basically bottom of the line for paiste

  • @mpawl347 Yet they still sound amazing lol

  • @WaSSupYo8o8 if he can afford to mike up is whole kit and film it with a pretty good camera im sure he can afford the cymbals too :)

  • @WaSSupYo8o8

    LOL!!!

    "hes using cheap cymbals"

    ahahah dayyaammm how much is an expensive cymbal to you? like $45 000 ???!!

    those aint cheap bro

  • @Lordmonkey52 he is using Paiste PST 5's they are about $400 for a SET of like 3 or 4 cymbals. a single zildjian A custom 20 inch crash costs $300. compared to more expensive cymbals, those are cheap.

  • @WaSSupYo8o8 compared to anything that's more expensive than it, it will look cheap yes.. failed point mate.

  • @Mambitalia well considering that this is the mid-lower end of paiste's line of cymbals this is considered "cheap"

  • @WaSSupYo8o8 um those cymbals are no cheap dude.

  • @WaSSupYo8o8 Are you joking? That cymbals are Paiste!!!!

  • @123ninjatuna123 so? paiste makes really good cymbals, and they make really cheap not so good cymbals. every cymbal company is like that. they make a professional grade hand-made cymbals, and cheaper beginner cymbals. those cymbals he is using are the mid range cheaper of paiste's line up.

  • @WaSSupYo8o8 You obviously dont know your cymbals, my friend.

  • @WaSSupYo8o8 pst symbols are NOT cheap lol..

  • @WaSSupYo8o8 hes like david hasselholf...some people are born badass...but hes more kickass than david.^_^

  • this is the best cover drum that u have (for my ) .. i'm u'r admirer! good job! n___n

  • love the sound of your medium tom. lol.

  • is mega drums !

  • Youve got mad skill and style. You took a very creative part and actually played it with style.

  • Wat kind of stock heads are they???

  • tama

  • ah,I've got the same cymbals :P

  • amazing man,you are powa!

  • Hey dude, I love all ur covers - your amazing. Dude, i've got those Paste cymbals, and I'm considering to get the Hi-hat too. Is it good? Seeing that you've got it......might aswell ask. :)

  • Ahh maybe. Who knows, he has so much input on the recording his kit could probally sound like shit and sound awesome when being produced.

  • Maybe it's just because I like to watch drum covers but I see Travis getting a lot of shit. Is no one else just inspired by just the fact he's recovered and playing again?

  • No shit right ? He's one of the best drummers alive, it's irrefutable.

  • I agree, Travis blows, look his youtube video of the soilder boy tellem cover where he warps his cymbals and removes the tarnish from playing them way to hard...what a noob

  • uhmm dude. its because hes fucking good at what he does he thrashes his symbols and does shit songs justice, now tell me that you could do that >.>

  • Travis isn't like, BAD; he's okay, he's just not really that great. He focuses a lot on power and speed, which take away from his groove, and he tends to either underplay or overplay. What he's done with one arm is amazing, though; when he had both, he was just pretty good.

  • He focus's on power and speed? right. People don't get famous for just being in a band drumming, hell theres a reason why travis's name is so widely spoken about compared to other famous bands drummers.

  • to nocturnezero:

    i agree with you thinking that Cobus kicks Travis' ass, but i disagree with you saying hes a bad drummer. He has his own punk style and he does have talent, but i do think he's really over rated by teenage fans who just really really love blink. but anyway, just saying, dude travis is awesome and a lot more talented than your average drummer. :)

  • A tom mount.

  • He does it again!

  • Love the ghost notes in this song.

  • OH YA I AM THE 501 Person rating !!!! I win a Cobus drum kit!!! Right??? PLZ!

  • that's amazing man...

    you don't happen to live in australia do ya? lol

  • South Africa.

  • i know a guy is just as good as you. it would be awesome if you too could hook up and play but we live in va
