  • Kinda makes you wanna be a rock drummer, doesn't it?

  • que grande! como toca, así suena Even Flow!

    lo que pasa es que acada baterista tiene su estilo, eso es así, y el tiene le mejor estilo para los primeros años de la banda, si pienso que hay muchas cosas de Pearl Jam que no hubiesen existido hoy por los distintos bateristas que tuvo, pero si pienso que Dave hubiese sido capaz de tocar, y hasta hacerlos sonar mejor con su estilo.

  • Best Pearl Jam-Drummer!

  • Grande Dave!!!!

  • Matt Doesn't suck. Dave is just the sound of Pearl Jam for me. But still i love me some Pearl :D

  • This guy's so entertaining to watch

  • These are Pearl drums, looks like the rented kit from the European tour in 1991.

  • This is the real PJ drummer!

  • Why argue who's the better drummer? Every drummer has his unique specialty's. I don't care what you say, Matt's a monster! (positive)

  • This guy never played for the song. I don't know but imagine thats why they they fired him. All the 'jazzing' it's acually easyer to do then keep it solid and play the song. This guys playing would piss anybody off after a while. I dont rate him at all for the reason I've been playing drums for 20 years and know how to be in the song. This guy faffed around with splash cymbals, perfect if your playing 'Sting' type stuff but not rock and roll. Matt Cameron is soo much more a present drummer.

  • To say one PJ drummer is better than the next is tough. Abbruzzese's main ability is to play his cymbals louder and faster and then slow down. its magical. Cameron however is more apt to play his toms and other drums. The switch is important i think. Pearl jam moving out of their arena phase was a conscious decision. I think they made the right move when i listen to their new stuff but i do miss this.

  • Somebody can´t say than Pearl Jam would make No Code or Binaural with Dave on the drums? Because i believed that every drummer in PJ makes his own contribution, and with this sight, so is pointless to say if one is better than other

  • He is one of my biggest influences as a drummer

  • I think I have a mancrush on Dave

  • Oh, how we like the Dave Cam! What a treat! He's really fun to watch. I'm happy with Matt too...but I do miss the Days of Dave sometimes!

  • He is soooo good!!!! He has soooo much energy in his playing!!!!

  • DAVE is THE KING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • hey, what is the date of this show?

  • @harvtron late91 or early 92 tops.

  • Dave is one of my favorites he looks like he is having a shit load of fun

  • Han... dave wasnt fired only for how he played drums... overplayed, yes, but full of soul, technique and joy... he had serius problems with vedder... and vedder, i have a theory, has the last opnion on the band...

  • MORE

    MORE MORE

    PLEASE MORE... EVEN IF ITS CUT OF SOUND LESS... just watching this is aewsome

  • dave makes more fills.great style great drummer !!!!!matt is boring!!!

  • ausdrummer11, pearl jam needed a better drummer, pearl jam began to do music more complex and dave not fitting in it....

    Matt is another thing, is one of the best drummer in the world, You should listen to pearl jam live, they are lethal, matt fits to the perfection

  • @porsiemprerock he fits ok... but made PJ lose its garage root sound. matt is great drummer. agreed on that... but hes tooooo boring

  • Not, his better work is in pearl jam , amazing lives and greatest song's for matt in pearl jam !!! in pearl jam matt kick ass everyone

    dave was boring in live and basic , pearl jam to shoot out him for that

  • @porsiemprerock AHAHAH did u say that DAVE was basic and boring? DAVE? get some light man... and new ears. get some bootlegs listen and learn.

  • LOL Matt Cameron is better, some of you are a bit clueless. Though he does his best work in Soundgarden.

  • matt cam is better

  • @porsiemprerock

    matt is a looser..... DAVE FOREVER

  • Thank you for posting

  • i noticed he's not playing dw's, what year is this from ?

  • @dw2345 yea, and i beleive he has a paiste splash, that's what i think it said.

  • dave rockkk

  • fuck off vedder! dave come backkkk

    best pj drummer ever

    pj haven`t sound like 92,93 and 94

  • @betofilizola AHHAHAHA fuck off vedder... gotta love that!! #missyoudave

  • ol' days

    I would pay GOLD to listen to the rightbeatperminute EvenFlow.

  • @guildensternisalive I would pay gold to watch dave come back. and they play like they used to be.. even if eddies voice can reach it anymore.

  • dave rocks, matt sucks

  • snare was to sharp

  • Songs like Evenflow and Animal have never sounded right without Dave. Jack and Matt play it with groove what so ever. This is how the song should be played.

    I love both Jack and Matt, mind you. They're awesome each in their own way.  But for this song, Dave's the man.

  • @FiveInchTaint totally agree,, There are alot of Bad ass drummers out there i'am sure but this guy pop's the drums like John Bonham to me...

  • what snare he uses ? lenght, brass or chrome?

    sounds unbelievable

  • @mileswarm I actually think Dave played Maple

  • I remember He used maple (on Vs.), but we can see he changed it several times

  • @mileswarm I think it's brass

  • it´s brass, thank you, I think it too, We know that he mostly used maple but I noticed that change here

  • Fijense entre 0:59-1:07, no se ve que toca dos veces la caja, tiene el brazo izquierdo arriba y el brazo derecho en el ride, lo mismo pasa despues cuando toca los splash, y llega tarde a un crash. Se nota que la canción o tiene playback o simplemente es otro sample....

    La interpretación de esta canción en batería es complicadisima, por lo mismo Abruzzese es uno de los mejores.

  • This guy is the best drummer Pearl Jam ever had. Personality playing. Matt Cameron better in Soundgarden.

  • no Pearl Jam dummer has nailed this song except for Dave A.

  • He was PJ's best drummer... totally. Great Dave !!

  • Im gonna go for this style of playing

    accent everywhere, its looks soooo good

  • i love his smile :D

  • Dave had the groove

  • sorry, but I prefer Irons.

  • Pearl Jam had some of the best musicians ever

  • davi é muito melhor que cameron... pearl jam perdeu feio.

  • grand....cameron's also a good drummer but never as good as dave.....best grunge drummer ever...

  • @pcboxtox you have no idea, they are completely different drummers, cameron never fitted with pearl Jam they are too striaght up for him, he is a really open drummer and a master of double strokes and hi hat and cymbal control, Dave was just a solid Drummer nothing special...

  • @LManTehPwner I'm gonna take sides here with the vehement Dave A fans. I'm Team Cameron all the way except when it comes to PJ. You can dissect Matt and Dave's playing all you want, with PJ Dave just rocked, intensely.

    I think that for fans, including me, DA embodies a more energized version of PJ that could have have been.

    Had they gone down that road, I doubt they would still be around, though. I just wish there was more music from this era.

  • @pcboxtox dave grohl is the best grunge drummer

  • @fake1skunk No, he's not.

  • @pcboxtox are you retarded? go watch some soundgarden footage and look at the time signatures cameron plays in with them. I love Grohl, Abrruzzese and Cameron but come on bro that is a stupid comment on your part.

  • @pcboxtox um listen to some soundgarden.

  • Met Dave the other day. . . he's touring with Stevie Salas in Europe right now! What a cool drummer - what a even cooler dude!!! Are there more vids like these???

  • You met him? Say anything??

  • Yeah, it was funny - he did all the talking. About his daughter, wife, having met Eddie recently . . . and I was still left jaw open because of his abilities on the drumset! What a nice guy!

  • Honestly?? Cause is your serious, that's amazing.. He met with Eddie again? That's odd. Such an amazing drummer, that's why I'm asking all this.

  • Dave met w/Ed? Did they patch things up?

  • so good man love his cymbal accenting......dave is an awesome drummer....definatley the best one pearl jam ever had

  • defiently!!!!! by far, cameron is a bender

  • Abbruzzese, grohl, cameron, chamberlin, chad smith, dude from stp...all great drummers from that time

  • best drummer of the 90s

    he must come back to pearl jam

  • He left because of differences apparantly, so unlikely he's coming back.... He wasn't someone the band could work well with. But you're absolutely right, he is a great drummer aye

  • you have more of this ?

  • But this song....this one Abbruzzese rules hands down. Whenever you hear Even Flow on the radio it's his version.  And it's better than the original. He adds a lot of energy to it. I hope he is still successful.

  • they dont jump around as much now maybe cause they are aging..they are all well into there 40's prob washed out a little from the last 18yrs of touring

  • sucks....

    well if someone whats to listen a good a EVEN FLOW COVER, check my chanel. bye!

  • why the fuck pearl jam let go this drummer!!! his energy was so fucking great!

    someone told me dave had some kind of problem with the intensity of his beats when playind drums and when eddie and the rest of the band wanted to start making some slow quiet songs they couldnt because of that. so thats why they fired him?

    Listen to the unplugged and you will see what i talk about, DAVE almost steps over all instruments with his drums and plates hehe

  • Cuz he was a majjjjor herion addict and a million arguements later that he started, he was out... sucks

  • yeah man, Dave was the bomb!

  • oh yeah, love him, wish he was doing more now. very easy to watch. i heard he was kicked outta pj cause he was too much of a "rock star", shitty attitude. anyone know the truth??

  • there's a book called 5 against 1 that gives a good explanation

  • @3notas i watched an interview with dave and he said he got panick attacks before shows a lot i don't know if thats why he left but

  • @3notas Sorry I'm not buying it. Dave is a very dynamic drummer. He plays with brushes on "Nothingman" !! Vedder said he was to "rock" and had to many cymbals...bullshit.

  • @3notas playing slow and less intense songs woudnt be something hard for a former jazz drummer. ever.

  • @3notas he was great and shit but he had too many problems. alcohol was a big one. but he also cared too much about the money and being famous. at least thats what ive heard. and yeah he wanted to take over the music on the drums so they let him go cause of that. and i understand cause im a drummer and every drummer wants the drums to be louder, but they couldnt work together with him trying to be too loud. he was a fuckin beast tho and pearl jam sounded so good with him

  • ohh men...lok that splash on the hi hat...is all broken ....hahaha,,,,obviously for hard and good drumming...farest...the best PJ drummer....farest

  • I also like Matt Cameron but he's drumming is a little bit quiet, boring. Dave has more energy and style.

  • So fluid and effortless.

  • Absolutely.

  • DAVE, EVERYBODY MISS YOU!!!

  • hey gndcd402, part of the reason this may not be syncing right is because the audio in this clip in not correct. I'm fairly sure three even flows were done during this soundcheck and the dave video was filmed during the same performance in the mike/jeff cam video (you can see dave's cameraman in that one). Its really hard to notice the discrepancies since dave's such a consistent drummer, but i bet you'll have better luck with syncing if you use the correct audio.

  • wtf ever pj's not a lively band anymore! they still play a killer live show like there's no tommorrow! maybe instead of whinning about yesterday you guys should check out a live show or video

  • i love his drumming in this song. dave will always be one of the best drummers

  • brutal

  • Jack who?..

  • It's THE BAND that doesn't fit anymore with his great style, THAT'S why they're not a lively band anymore. The day Dave got fired, the real spirit of the 90's died...

  • Matt Cameron plays in PJ like he's playing for AC/DC!

  • hááááááááááha, yesssssss

    it has ever seemed to me too

    very funny . yeah Matt has not a technique, dynamic, cymbal work, fills, nothing

    with him Pearl Jam sounds like garage band without "punchy" feelings

  • PJ's best drummer. That's it.

  • WITHOUT DOUBT.

  • tremendo, el mejor baterista de rock lejos.

  • solo miren la tecnica, Dave es superior a matt, jajajaja matt apesta

  • yeah, he was good but i think he matches pearl jam's style back then. I don't know man, i think Cameron's sound is flat, they should bring Dave back or something...

  • He WAS better in Soundgarden, but not PJ... just think man!!

  • Pj rules. and i think that Dave brought the best groove to PJ at that time. sometimes listening to the older stuff live i really miss him, Jeff and him worked well together. Dave A was my biggest drum influence growing up....I love taylor hawkins too, but if i would have one complaint or crit it would be a little to much cymbal work at times. but i love dave.

  • I love the dynamic of how he plays the first half of the verse with closed hi-hat and the second half of the verse with open/loose hi-hat. Its a cool feel playing this song and doing that.

  • totally...i try and explain this to people and they just dont get it....

  • Same. Glad someone else knows what I mean

  • i cool playing. this is the tempo flow should be @. nice groove and rimshot backbeats. too many cymbals/crashes for me but thats just thats choice right?

  • He wasn't boring you ILUSO, he was on the red hot chili peppers and he's got the funky groove.

  • both drummers are good....both played in great bands....I certainly don't have a preference... Both hit hard, both play lots of ghost notes, Cameron suits the new pearl jam more though. Certainly didn't make sense to Fire Dave, and put Jack Irons... remember that guy? he was really boring.

  • Matt makes all the Pearl jam songs sound the same, flat, no surprising elements, he should be playing with some other band

  • Matt sucks at playin Even Flow, he doesn't have that power, that groove that makes it such a great live song. Matt is like a grandma next to Dave.

  • Matt Cameron should take his more versitale skills to another band because pj needs its groove back.Not complex time signatures or tricky fills just that funky groove they had in the early 90's

  • ILUSO

  • He is killing the flow man.

    ABRUZZESE was way better..

  • artistic differences... quite a shame

  • how do you get all this videos dude ?! you are amazing, dave A is my life he got me into drums

  • Best Pearl Jam drummer ever, I agree.

  • Best Pearl Jam drummer. EVER

  • Dave es el mejor baterista y es muy tecnico me gusta su estilo y muchas cosas de las q hago estan inspiradas en el,si puedes sube mas videos de el please

  • why too jam ,, i grew up watching him jam everyday on the drums ,why his parents read in the next room, why we all getting high banging are heads aginst the wall , back in home town of mesquite,texas , miss them good ole days ,,, keep rocking buddie

  • Dave's energy is awesome! Pearl Jam lost thier best drummer. he tightend that band up.

  • gndcd402, you were always my favorite youtube user ever. but reading that you're a dave A supporter in your vid description makes me respect you that much more.
