  • whats the point of having 2 bass drums that arent even properly on the kit, i have one bass drum

  • I appreciate this guy's knowledge of music and how he chooses to express it but I've always thought that it's more important and harder to create complex beats that are also good to the ear. I mean anyone who has had the proper teaching and experience drumming can do this as long as you spend enough time behind that set. The hard part about music is creating a song that comes alive when it's played, the notes come together and give birth to music. This, to me, is just math and a lot of hard work

  • Hey Terry,

    You stopped by my drum shop Drums NW in Seattle about 15 years ago your sounding better then ever. Thanks Rick Spano

  • @85Aheadstix clearly you don;t know Mark Zonder then. I will however agree that no mortal man could play this.

  • Terry Bozzio can't possibly miss with his Dick Tracy Hat on!!

  • 555+ สุดยอดๆ

  • The real question is what would Mark Zonder do with these drums????

  • @bigsexy9999 Nothing, hes stare and just start shaking, only Terry can play this monster.

  • That kit has to be worth of $150k. Guitar players shell out that kind of money for a Vintage guitars & amps. Bozzio is eccentric to say the least, but he can play (and teach at the University level). He worked for Frank Zappa. You had to be a musical wizard to pass Frank's entrance exam (he was rough on drummers), and a bit eccentric (nuts).

  • his set is the largest in the world, however his EGO is even larger. he can't play for SHIT!!!!

  • NO SE COMO LA CARGA MI BATERIA SOLO TIENE 5 TOMS 6 PLATILLOS, CONTRA Y TAROLA Y NO CABE EN UNA CAMIONETA :)

  • The irony being I don't see a single crash cymbal on that motherfucker.

  • I just don't like his style...

  • Having a drum kit that's extremely large doesn't make you a good drummer, it just means you must be coming up shirt somewhere else.

  • Pointless!......

  • cobus should be the owner of these drums :)

  • I'd like to be Terry's drum-tech anyday.

  • anyone has an idea about how much this kit would cost if for any reason you wanted to buy it?

  • @varconv probably over 15,000 dollars

  • @zombiehunter728 really? i was thinking about 50.000

  • @varconv could be. it was just a guess

  • Hate to point it out (unless someone else did already...) but he does "miss a beat" at 00:44

  • that was a waste hes not using all the set and you are so boaring and dumpooooo

  • He is like the John Nash of the drums....not that he is a genius or nobel prize. He has an pseudo-schizophrenic obsession with toms. Some of them are real. Others imaginaries. Never seen anything like that IN MY LIFE. Such a waste of equipment. Enough drums to feed an entire third world drum academy.

  • BUT, can he play seven nation army?

  • Office. House. Possibly even his car too. One in the same and it travels at only 2 miles to the gallon :p

  • he went to the drum shop and said "i'll have four of everything"

  • this guy looks like bozzio the clown !

  • this is awesome i am soooooooooooooo jealous

    soooooo jealous

  • so boring, i mean what happened to all his badass beats with korn? he can play so good but lately he does slow african shit

  • @psnHEAVYMETALHEAD korn are shit ...and you have taste in your arse ...

    even terry would say that there are loads of styles ..why limit yourself to metal? -BORING.....this is fan-fucking -tastic

  • he is 60 yrs old men hahahahahaha try to see more of his videos and check if u can handle the drums he use and still do he is just fooling around on his office jajajajajajajjaajajaja bunch of haters!!

  • Independence is his specialty. He is more interested in musical experimentation these days. What make Terry great is the fact that he can here all these sounds in his head, as if they were being played by a drum circle. He is playing a complex composition here, not adhering to a crowd, so one who knows him can see why other people clearly don't understand what he's doing.

  • Ladies and gents the great Terry Bozio,,,, No No kill it tha cymbal has way to much tone I want it to sound like old pots and pans,,, tighten the head up to the point they alomost pop,,, there thats it its my sound,,, My wall of shit!! wtf he is some great drummer gimme a fucking break

  • Someone is clearly over compensating

  • Comment removed

  • he only uses half of the stuff he got there!

  • chad smith plays on a 5 set and hes 100x better then this

  • @dvssk8a Really? I've seen Chad Smith try to play Moby Dick. Even with cams it was a fail.

  • he isnt even good..he has no style or feel or funk..he just plays alot of stuff...its an illusion...

  • The mics and recording equipment alone cost more than my drum kit. . .

  • probably has a hard time hitting that hi hat

  • @wildsnydon Which one?

  • ....I wonder how much this whole kit weighs.....

  • Comment removed

  • Radia Cup Chime are art.

  • I feel like hes famous for his drum set not for his playing.

  • @Nintenkid91

    ever heard of Frank Zappa ? cause Mr Zappa did not put amateur on his payroll

  • @jfmayer Word!

  • @Nintenkid91 i fell like his drum set is famous because of him... He needs a drum set like this to explore all his potencial. note the melody played with tons and bells. A drummer must have much more than just speed...

  • just another day in the office :p

  • haha he's just hitting things that make noise

  • @TheMikoras he is making mellody, even the basses are tuned diferently, so to make a mellody, not only rithm.

  • what a pretentious fag

  • Beautiful Solo!!!!!

  • the drum set/kit is sick but he is not so much

    i wonder how much it cost

  • I liked the part when he played the drums.

  • You guys see that one tom?

  • Ohhhh give me a break. That drumset for that solo??? Miss match.

  • @FONO134 he has this drum set for chromatic tuning... he can play literally anything on it, whether he chooses too or not. Bozzio is boss

  • i feel bad for his drum tech

  • @hodis795 tech"s' plural. He haas like four or five haha.

  • @hodis795 Yeah, but get a look at his paycheck. I'm sure he doesn't feel too bad.

  • @enthusiastoftoast i couldn't even imagine his paycheck.

  • @hodis795 you mean his drum techs?

  • Very musical, pleasent and unique, best regards!

    Thank you!

  • very nice .

  • he has as many bass drums as I can count on 1 hand

  • Why do people always have stupid arguments about music videos?

    He's a fantastic drummer!

    End of story!

    If you don't like it go listen to something you like.

    Too many people are negative about things they don't even understand...

  • Useless. What a tool.

  • when you have a drumset that huge and outrageous you need to bring a sound that matches it. Terry just never does enough to get me goin

  • The bigger the kit THE MORE POSSIBILITIES!!!!!! duh man i mean having only a snare hi-hat and bass does not work well does it but having crashes splashes rides hi hat toms snare double bass lets u access more songs o and china

  • It's necessary to him, yes. To you, perhaps not. Check out some of those videos of him over on the right from 25 years ago. He's on an 8 piece kit, and sounding, dynamically, like no other drummer out there. The bigger the kit, the more sounds you have access to. That's all.

  • this is just my opinion and please dont kill me for saying this but when someone has a drum set like this it kinda shows me that they dont have enough dynamic to get the same sound out of say a 4-7 piece kit.. obviously you can get a lot more pitches out of this size of a kit but is it really nesessary? thats just my view

  • @MiniJackAssChannel You have a valid point but I don’t think it applies here. Especially when you consider Terry (in this clip) is just doing a simple exercise. However your point rings true when it comes to average drummers that can’t seem to get past a certain level. Some cling to the idea that bigger APPEARS better. Some of the best local drummers I’ve recorded in the last 25 years have used 4 and 5 piece kits.

  • @RayHamburger yeah, thats the point im trying to get at. haha. Terry obviously knows how to use it but a lot of people don't. im only a freshman and ive unanimously been voted best drummer in a school of 3200 kids and i only use a 4 piece lol

  • @MiniJackAssChannel honestly i dont even think there is one time where he uses the whole drumset. He only uses like half of it...

  • @awupda

    He doesn't use it all every time he plays, but over the course of his career, he's hit each one of those drums and cymbals many hundreds of times.

  • wimpiest drummer I've ever heard.

  • DW and Sabian called. They would like half of their stock back now.

  • Must take forever to set that thing up!

  • @chevyfan797 It takes aprox. 6 hours to do it. There's even a time lapse with Bozzio's narration describing and stuff on YouTube.

  • imagine buying drumheads to all these drums O.o

  • i wonder how much the cost came up to :P

  • Asparagus makes your urine smell

  • @jasonfallon123 did u get this from the bathroom reader book series?

    

  • @jasonfallon123 thank you

  • Personally not my cup of tea but he's obviously an extremely talented player with a great grasp of tone and melody.

  • cheesiest القرف رأيت في وقت طويل، وأيضا من أي وقت مضى، أعني

  • i feel bad for the sound tech

  • his cymbals sound wierd

    

  • @nomonpie not weird. just different

  • Hate to be the one mic'ing up that kit :L

  • seriously he has all that equipment and uses shit all of it for a solo, what a waste..

  • @DionH62 well not every musician uses EVERY single part of their instrument for each song. just like how a piano player doesn't use EVERY key on the piano for every song. that would sound terrible. some songs require certain drums while other songs require other drums.

  • @pwnage51 i know, it just seems a shame to have that many toms and cymbals for a drum solo like that.. and yes i know you don't use every note, i play piano, drums and guitar myself.

  • Sounds like something out of the original Planet of the Apes.

  • que es esta mierda.!

  • The most OVER RATED DRUMMER of all time. Yech.....

  • @BRIDOGG19666 No, I would bestow that honor on Mike Portnoy. Bozzio's work with Zappa speaks for itself. This is something I can't relate to but I won't call it crap. Portnoy's playing, I'll call crap.

  • @BRIDOGG19666 Any good drum can do what he is doing. Questlove would eat him alive! Plus, it's boring, it sounds like some movie score shit.

  • DW called they want there warehouse back

  • @AfterShockTheBand1 lol, DW must hate when they see him come walking throw the factory doors, workers probably run and hide, hell no, this guy has enough drums, what else does he want us to make for him

  • If this was an interview for a job, Next please...

  • short dick problem

  • @Kliwadenko clearly, you know nothing about the concept of bozzio's drum kit. it's not over-compensation. his kit is set up and tuned so that he can play melodies. if you listen closely, he's not just randomly hitting drums. he's playing different notes and melodies to create a melodic song. you just need to listen instead of making stupid penis jokes

  • @pwnage51 what about timpani sets with no more than 8 pieces where you can do that pseudo oriental scale melodies? what about tone pedals?. so i repeat myself, too much shit for what he is really doing

  • @Kliwadenko Repeating a stupid comment doesn't improve it. One of the obvious flaws in your reasoning is that apparently it's based on the premise that what he recorded here in 5 minutes is all he ever plays. Of course you can take away notes from any instrument, and still play melodies, as long as there are still 2 or more tones. He happens to want more options, but of course you know his art better than he does. Which one of Zappa's bands did you play in?

  • @pwnage51 you can see it in his hat

  • I think he needs at least ONE MORE DRUM!

  • It was amazing up until the end, when he started randomly thrashing at the symbols, but I have never heard someone play a bassline with tuned kick drums before.

  • shit and i thought having an 11 piece plus 4 cymbals in my living room was big...

  • Fucking idiot... All he is doing is making pointless noise

  • @yourawsomelikeme pfft, i suppose beethoven or hendrix is pointless noise too right?

  • He is the reason I started playing drums!!! 

  • you can make 12 drum kits out of this thing!

  • Cmon people stop talking about how terry´s drum kit is huge, or bad comments about his playing...He was "Zappa" drummer...that said it all.

  • small dick -> huge set?

  • @j444n small dick -> ignorant comment?

  • what are words for ? When you could play the drums that......

  • That kit is ok, if thats all you can afford.

    Seriously tho, He's up there with the best, way up there.

  • If someone unknown played that overloaded drum kit (wearing that silly hat), then you would all be haters, even if he played much better than Bozzio!!

  • Hey would this kit be good for a beginner? Lawl

  • amazingfilms247 anyone

  • He moves like a fucking centipede. Incredible drummer.

  • amazing solo, its gotta be hard to remember what all the drums sound like :P

  • @Leg1TxDrummeRxCluTcH No whe you write on them

  • I feel bad for his roadies :(

  • i retract my previous statement awesome

  • this drumset is for dave lombardo

  • @cometeunchorii Dave Lombardo wouldn't have a fucking clue what to do with this kit

  • it's a huge squishy xylophone

  • Now that's just not necessary

  • get out from behind all that bling and do it on a 5 pc

  • @MrEmohdee It's not just "bling", he genuinely uses the whole kit.

  • Poor sound guy...

  • Them bass drums sound fantastic.

  • beast

  • I may have left one of my cymbals somewhere here.Guess who found it.Great job Mr.Bozzio!

  • hmmm i wonder how long it take to move 5 feet....O.o

  • foolish

  • geeky, not used up all .. such as random

  • I do think its stupid having a kit this big but.. i do realize that he's playing a piece of music which in its own right is a song in itself, i think it sounds great. people making dumb comments on his playing are brain dead idiots that think a big kit needs to be blasted to pieces which ISN'T always the case

  • Terry Bozzio is a freakin' genious, stop with the hating. He is in a league all of his own and one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. No ego, not a dick just a real good guy.

  • One word: Overkill.

  • is that necessary ?

  • to slow

    

  • god i can't stand his kit and i love BIG kits but like a 9 or 10 piece is really about how big id go (excluding cymbals)

  • เล่นสนตีนอะไร วะ กลองเยอะวะป่าวไม่เห็นจะมันเลย

  • Fuckkkkkkkkk fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kk fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAACk

  • lol i love how the two top comments are the opposite ones....

  • @c090574 awesome comment!!!!

  • when I see terry bozzio all I can see is his ridiculous über super big drum...thing (I don't think is a set anymore) Darren King of Mute Math can do far better stuff with 1/10 of what this guy is using. I'm deeply sorry but one cannot appreciate the music when his kit takes all the attention. Collaiuta was also Frank Zappa's drummer and look where he is know. I believe Bozzio is way too much into the metaphysics of drumming....whatever that's supposed to mean....

  • @isildrum And this is his most enjoyable work...:) At least among those I,ve already listened to. For melodies one must use lot drums - at least 16 for 2 octaves (snare and bass are indifferent) - to have tunes, but You are right using the word "metaphysics of drumming" to Bozzio.

  • lol

  • hate to be the guy that re-skins that

  • @outsiderplayer :)))

  • must be really annoying to tune all those!

  • @ImaFez You,re very right. Terrible. And can't be done perfectly. (I use 19 drums, 6 cowbells - necessary to melodies  - and suffer a lot:)

  • He is god. But he is not my style.

  • He is painting a sonic landscape with his drums. Awesome

  • Sorry, but there is no song in existence/set of songs in existence which requires a drum kit that big. I am all for big drum kits as long as they are used. The reality is that what he is playing in this video could be done without a considerable difference on a kit with 2 bass/2 racks/2 floors and a snare maximum.

  • There's a lot of people listening on shitty laptop speakers..

    Who can't hear the perfect 4th in the two kick drums he's playing? Or the melody on the toms? (Though his top ones are painfully out of tune)

  • must be a bitch to tune

  • i drum roll on that kit would take like 20 mins

  • Why so much people keep saying this is shit?! I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

  • You can't approach this type of solo with the same attitudes that you would a rock or jazz solo. This is taking a much more experimental approach to drumkit percussion and actively pushing to see what can actually be done by a drummer in terms of sounds and style. I love that he's taking his drumming in this type of avante-garde direction, it shows his musicianship and passion for percussion and I have massive respect for those qualities in a modern artist.

  • FUCK THIS. I GOTTA ELECTRIC DRUMSET THAT MAKES ALL THEM SOUNDS.

  • @MrBucket0fries lol

    

  • I'd hate to be the poor bastard who has to tune all of those drums.

  • sound like he's playn that song: "on the nightshift"......

  • nice idea. but it's more percussion there with some notes.

    but i don't hear any good melody, sorry

  • sooooooooooooo does Bozzio own everything but Crash cymbals?
