When it comes to playing drums, this is the ultimate level. What I love so much about Glen's playing, is that he always maintains a recognizable groove, as a listener you can always dig it and enjoy. There are so many top level drummers who lose themselves in playing weird odd time signature stuff. But not Glen. He's the master of groove. I never get tired of listening to him. He combines rudiments, double bassdrumming, groove, sound, showmanship, all in one... What an amazing drummer.
How have I never heard of this guy? He's unbelievable!
He is Alice Cooper 's current drummer. He subbed a few shows for Tommy Lee on the final Crue tour
Look up more videos of his...he will become one of your favorite drummers...
Studied with him at LAMA in LA back in '98. He was a monster then! #DRUMs!
Exactly.. I'm discovering several drummers now that have been around for years
*There's only two options after seeing this video :*
*1. Practice more*
*2. Sell drumms*

i guess im asking randomly but does any of you know of a method to log back into an Instagram account?
I somehow forgot the login password. I would love any assistance you can offer me.
@Ira Dangelo Instablaster ;)
That must be such a great feeling.
What? He DROPPED the stick!
The most polite blast beat 2:55
Mr Sobel is a great MASTER! THANK YOU FOR THE INSPIRATION!😀
Damn where have I been? This is the second video of you and the first time I have been exposed to your drumming. Wow dude. You're amazing.
I'm SPEECHLESS. Glen you knocked me out!!!
Beautiful
Glen I hear this and think I just saw a guy flying without wings. Wonderful. Thank you.
Such a fun solo. Fuck yeah man :)
Uh Oh, wow do I need to practice. At 68, i would hope to play 1/4 as well..... at least shoot for that. Loved the drum kit. When i decide to upgrade from my childrens kit, DW definitely on the list. I'll never get out of my basement, but hope to have fun playing drums after a 50 year hiatus. I might get good enough to bop the looters out of the Park.
Videos like this make me realize I really suck at drums and always have.
Great playing Glen! Such original takes on the chops, love where you've taken them!
He is awesome
Hahaha! outside of the exemplary chops and stamina, his comedy is great at the end stick drop. He is a disciplined artist. His workouts are not easy, nor new, but he makes it look/sound so smooth.
Love his playing! Super nice guy too 🤘🏻
💯
What an Awesome sounding kit 🤘🤘
A TRUE MASTER....TASTEFULLY DEFINING HIS AWESOMENESS......LOVE IT !!!!! :)
My future drum set
Glen I've watched many of your videos, you're a freak. You always entertain, and somehow you always keep it fresh. But man, above all, your chops are just crazy.
Playing very well and lightning fast
Amazing stuff! He really plays holding the end of the stick a lot.
Glen ROCKS!
Remember glenn from Jennifer Battens Tribal Rage. What a musical drummer.
exelent video.congratulations.
I love the ending! haha
His patterns are unique and rythmic
Hell yes!!!
Makes me want to get back into drumming
The best and most beautiful Drums in the world. And the musician is excellent 🥁💙 !!!
A melhor e mais linda Bateria do mundo. E o músico é excelente 🥁💙!!! 🇧🇷
Kick ass my man
Dude plays so even it's almost impossible
Glen it's great a dude, phenomenal player, and a total pro. Finally (in the last decade) he's getting some recognition, still not enough IMHO-
🙏
I love this kit. Got to play it at DW day at Bentley's.
Thank you
What is sound he's got he's amazing
Who the hell gave this thumbs down . Let's you play jack asses. Excellent playing 👏
Wow! Awesome drumming Glen! Oh yeah. The drums aren't to shabby either.
Are almond kits like
Is the wood almost dead? I like that they’re a lower tone but I’m wondering if the kick has low end or just attack and do the toms have life
He has a potential for becoming a successful drummer one day... lord help me.
Like DW DRUM
I play a pdp kit!!!!! Dw drums for the win!
I have a Pacific kit also. They are great sounding drums for a good cost. I have the MX series which were their high end kits. It's color is emerald fade, it's a Huge monster kit, double bass drums and all. Pdp are very underrated because they have alot of different series and different levels. My kit just as good as a DW kit, I'm not kidding. With the right heads and tuning, it can sound amazing. I have the Evans E-Mads on both bass drum batter heads, and have a "TunePort" built into each resonate head. When I'm on a gig I use triggers on my bass drums so I don't have to use mics.Plus they are fun to just mess around with at practice also. I have the Gibraltar "Spider Rack" system....No cymbal stands. I will never go back to cymbal stands again. "Once You Go Rack, You never Go Back"
if i had this kit, I'd be playing nothing but The Allman Brothers lol
😉
you and Mangini man Berklee staff have got that technique stuff going on Eh!
Beautiful kit with a drummer that could and can make elephant dung piles sound good lol!
Nah but jokes aside, dw amazing drums as always and Glen, dude as always, you killed it!
Just awesome but l'd like to hear him playing vintage Ludwig or Gretsch kits. The snare is excellent.
Not generally a fan of the DW sound, but these almond shells do sound great...
Thank you
@@dwdrums I'd also like to say that I absolutely love the Jazz Series shells and DW hardware! I doubt I'll ever love a pedal more than the 5000 single-chain...
Pure fulcrum
you play well son..!
Possibly DW's best sounding shell next to the VLT 333 and Santa Monica series. I was like "wtf almond as a tonewood"? Being that either walnut, mahogany, gum and poplar are the better "soft porous" woods. After hearing this, wowza!! DW you always knock it out of the park :) Thanks!
Better late than never
The floor toms sound ideal but quiet
Ziljdian 7AN red dipped sticks
Very big DW fan .Love there drums,but the tunning on that snare sounds off a bit.Let John Good tune it since your there.
Can you please just make a piano black in the collector's series? Thank you!
We do! Collector's Series drums are custom made so you can get any color you like. 😃 Here are some examples but you can still get what you prefer too. www.dwdrums.com/drums/collectors/finishes.asp
I need more practice!
Did you?
I think the toms sounded better on his Mapex Saturn kit he used to play.
Agreed, while I like and respect DW drums I think they sound pretty flat and blatty in this video
Agreed, it's a shame he left Mapex.
Tbh i feel like DW drums always have that flat dead weight sound. Not sure why more and more guys are moving towards that tone these days..
@@wanderer12 Maybe sponsorship? Free gear? Name a kit or snare after you? A ton of options? Awesome support? Always making or trying something new? The company talks everything drums and loves to educate? Made in the USA?
Oh and the kits sound great.
Always tasty 😋
Alice Cooper drummer
Prog
that last floor tom sounded very disconected from the rest of the kit and not so good, maybe that’s why he only hit it a couple of times; rest of the kit very good!
haha I thought it sounded way better than the rest of the drums and was wondering why he wasn't favoring it. Could be your headphones/speakers if they don't have good bass response.
This kit wouldn't sound nearly as good if they weren't using microphones in this video that's a fact! Sounds like they did other things with the sound and recording also.Glen would still sound amazing though. DW are considered the "Cadillac" of drums by many, and they are excellent drums. But you can get a kit alot less expensive and with the right heads and tuning make them sound just as good. DWs craftmanship, paint finish, quality, and hardware on the drums are next to none. If you know how to really "REALLY" tune drums and know which heads to choose for your kit you don't have to spend a fortune on drums. I have a MX series "Pacific" or "PDP" monster size kit which was their high end kit. They are owned by DW ironically, so it's great quality for a lesser price.And they sound simply amazing....I mean AMAZING!! They sound just as good! Just the drums on my kit were roughly 2 grand, I have around 6 grand total invested in my kit with the rack system, harware, cymbals, triggers, drum module, foot pedals, throne, misc.items etc. If it would have been a DW kit that size with everything together we are looking at roughly 19 grand. Big difference in price lol...but no difference in sound IMO. DW are beautifully crafted drums I will give them that. Best looking drums on the market and some of the best hardware in the land. It's all about heads and tuning. But don't get me wrong a 150 dollar kit for beginners won't work lol. I mean (example) a 750 dollar Pearl kit, 950 dollar Tama kit is what I mean. You dont have to spend a fortune if your not sponsored. Get a decent kit with the right heads and tune them right. Get an Evans E-Mad batter head on the bass drum and tune it right, you don't have to put any blankets or muffling inside. That's what I did, my bass drums sound huge, and perfect. On the front resonant head I put in a "TunePort" to get all the highs, and lows out of my bass drums, and gave it a punch that wasn't there before. I would put my kit against a DW kit any day of the week and sound just as good, if not better. Do your drums right, and they will do YOU right!
A cheap backdrop and some lights would've made this look pro.
What a beauty of a drumset! Glenn has loads of technique but I'd rather see him playing in the context of a band. His soloing sounds like practice, sorry 😁
Actually he plays for Alice Cooper
You mean it sounds like no need for more practicing
Boring.
