@@DavidOakesMusic yep to me seems like drumeo is a well oiled engine by now as a team,business. So much content and work they did so far for the community
Just watched a video on a WW2 admiral Willis “Ching” Lee and dude was sent to be the woodchipper for them in DC and originally paperwork would be rubber stamped “routine, urgent,or priority” in that order. Well, he decided it wasn’t working for him so had his own rubber stamp made with the word “FRANTIC”…😂😂 they didn’t know what to do but get everything marked “FRANTIC” done immediately. Reminded me of Chad. Also, dude won a National rifle competition after getting a bullseye from 1000 yards. So he decided to compete in the pistol competition, despite not being there for it. Anyway gun blows up in his hand from a round with too much powder. Without skipping a beat has a friend toss him another pistol and catches with his left non dominant hand and finishes and gets another gold medal. Basically Chad Smith reincarnated.❤
Performances like this remind me how important conviction is, even when you have good fundamental technique. Not saying I have good technique, but I just know that it sounds far more horrific if I'm unsure of what I want to play!
I love the way Chad doesn’t feel tied to the original recording and just plays whatever he wants. Bonzo was similar. Makes me feel free to play hard and loose too 👍🏻🥁
Same here! I have a tendency when I'm just playing along with music to want to stick to the original, but I'm learning to let myself do my own thing to a certain extent
I love how this song seems like the tempo speeds up and slows down throughout … but it doesn’t, actually. The BPM is very steady. Chad’s drumming stylistic and rhythm choices give that variable-tempo illusion. It’s really cool, especially the work on the toms and the ride.
@@PurpleDreki I think it's actually good control over time dilation. A bad drummer would be out of sync with the time, a regular human would sound like you gave a monkey some sticks and it went apeshit. I know you're just saying it's not computerized, but I feel like the way it was said undercuts his skill.
He fully, completely understood the assignment. I love that he fully knows the expectation, that fellow drummers are watching. Drummers drummer. This version should be on Spotify.
Homie got so much control over every detail of what he's doing it looks like he's somewhere else in his mind, just chilling and vibing to the music his limbs are producing.
That hi hat groove he does in the beginning with the clicks on the snare are amazing! Absolutely love the tom groove he does as well. In my opinion, the most impressive part of this video was the hi hat fix he does at around 1:51 with a slick stick change was so cool! Great video, great drummer
The RHCP are my favorite band but as a guitarist I never really payed much attention to the drum parts. These videos with Chad playing just gives me such another level of appreciation for theirs songs!
That's odd. The best best part of RHCP is the rhythm section. I, for one, am a lot less enthousiastic about Kiedis and Frusciante. RHCP with only guitar and vocals is very bland elevator music, nowadays.
This album for some reason always got me with the art cover. That weird painting full of inverted colors and a woman with a smirk on her face and eyes covered. I wonder what it means... It will always be one of my favorite album covers from the RHCP along with the pool of sky from Californication.
@@eze6982it wasn’t painted by John, it was a portrait of his girlfriend at the time Stella Schnabel, painted by her dad Julian Schnabel who is a famous artist John did have huge creative input on that album
I met Chad the night before their show in Brazil last year, and all I can say is that he is a really chill guy, and I'm really happy for being able to met him and talk to him
Damn I love watching him play, he is SO musical . . . right inside the song, playing with such confidence and fun that there can be no 'wrong' strokes.
The true greats are always taking something they played and then doing improv in their performances. Sure, they are keeping certain patterns the same or there are riff, fills, hooks that they want to maintain but as they move through the song they throw in what they want and it's seamless. Such a Chad. ALWAYS fun listening to him play.
Kudos to the audio engineer. I felt every drum in my Nuraphones - and that’s tough when UA-cam compresses audio! If you’re gonna feel the drums, it should be Chad pounding them! Love him!
……oh and Chads def more talented at his thing then Will is at his acting thing hell Chad might even be better at that too lol and no shot at Will love him to also a genius! But god damn Chad can play some drums
I flew all the way to Costa Rica from NYC last year to see the RHCP and turned out to be one of the greatest shows! I play guitar but I still checked this out. Thanks for this!
I would love to see the genius of Dave Lombardo and Igor Cavalera ! If I could play drums it would be because of these two. Loved seeing Chad’s playing as usual😊
Reason why i love Chad is he plays with heart & feel. None of his renditions is ever the same. He plays what his body feels at the time. He's one w the music and its never contrived
I saw RHCP in Toronto a couple of years ago. It was incredible. We splurged a bit for tickets, and were just a little later to arrive than we would have liked. We circled around the ACC a bit trying to find the best door to enter. A few ushers told us go here, no he was wrong go there, etc etc. Finally, while the opening band was already playing, we asked a final usher. He sort of smiled when he saw our tickets, and said to follow him. He walked us right down to the floor. We couldn't believe it lol we knew we paid for great seats, but didn't realize we'd never even use them. We had a few bars all to ourselves, and enough room to do cartwheels and jump all around. It was unforgettable.
Chad, John, and Flea have such a great chemistry. Such a unique and catchy sound. People here on Anthony, but he fits this band like a glove. He’s the voice of the best rock band of the past 40 years
Something i love about drumeo and all the songs they put out, i feel like its puts insight into some of your favourite drummers, a peek into the original master recordings, ive watched these every morning before work, so its nice just to see some of the stuff they put out, then go to work smack on a steering wheel all day then go home and play the kit at home like its inspiration
2:17 that left drum stick was bottom side up for a bit. Love how he flipped it in half a second without missing a beat.. Earthquakes and tornadoes could happen live at that drum kit at a show and Chad still remains in pocket. Legend.
if you have heard this song before, close your eyes and listen to this video.. there is a maniac playing the drums so unbelievably precise.. it is great talent. nice work chad. thanks for the upload Drumeo. tribute or not this talent captured is unparalleled
I love watching Chad jam along to songs because he's just like every teenage drummer ever whose been taking lessons for a while and has some intermediate to advanced skills... trying to just throw as many strokes and tricks in there as you can muster without falling crazily out of time. It's just nice to see a great recording drummer be just like one of us Weekend duffers when jamming along to our favourite tunes.
Chas smith gracias 🫂 por tanta sentimiento en la batería la 🆕 generación te lo agradece gracias 👌🏼 tu eres nuestra inspiración ah seguir saludos desde bolivia 🇧🇴🇧🇴🇧🇴
Mon Dieu que j'aime ce mec...il tabasse comme personne... Les RHCP ont ceci de bien que les 4 musiciens ont chacun un charisme incroyable.... c'est bien que Chad soit mis en avant.... merci beaucoup pour ce panel de vidéos Chad Smith, je me régale !
Chad is not only one of the best drummers in the world, but also gotta be one of the most well off. Doing instructional videos for Drumeo just because he’s spreading the word. Drummer’s drummer.
So nice for me..had only heard of the Peppers..no knowledge of their work..by chance l picked up a library book written by Anthony Keidis..his biography..suddenly the band is all over you tube..enjoying meeting all the band members on videos..their work is fab..am older but wiser now ..🇨🇦
When i win the lottery im getting a drumtec3 pro just so i can sound like my favorite drummers. Chad Smith is my spirit animal 🌶 I love how overplays the hell out of the song on Drumeo because its his song he can do whatever the hell he wants and it still sounds good
En 2005 cuando salió el video Dani California y lo vi tocar batería fue mi inspiración para apasionarme con este maravilloso instrumento 🥁 Cada vez que lo veo tocar miro su energía y pasión Tenemos Chad Smith para rato!!!!
Who the hell said that? 😂 Almost everyone I know says Chad Smith is an amazing fucking drummer 🔥🔥 Chad is definitely on my list of top drummers of all time. Whoever said this BS must not be a fan of the chili peppers
Chad is one of my favourite drummers. Love the personality and the energy he brings to the drums...I like the way he did that little jazz vibe at the end.
O Chad Smith tem que fazer mais live para os fãs " matarem a saudade" é um espetáculo vê- lo tocar bateria. O grande amor da vida dele é a "menina Batera"❤️🇵🇹🇺🇲🥰

And always with the same shirt lol
He's been charging down there

@@DavidOakesMusic yep to me seems like drumeo is a well oiled engine by now as a team,business. So much content and work they did so far for the community

I don't know anything about playing drums but Chad's joy and enthusiasm in his playing is so clear, it is a blast to watch him every time.
Just watched a video on a WW2 admiral Willis “Ching” Lee and dude was sent to be the woodchipper for them in DC and originally paperwork would be rubber stamped “routine, urgent,or priority” in that order.

Basically Chad Smith reincarnated.❤
It's cool to see, especially considering how many times he's played it over the years.
he puts so much of himself into his playing, it’s magical. there’s so much flavor every time he plays
Drums are the easiest instrument to learn.
@@marquisdelafayette1929 tf are you on about you looney
I love how he just doesn't care about playing it note for note perfectly. It is so much more enjoyable to just watch him flow.
Performances like this remind me how important conviction is, even when you have good fundamental technique. Not saying I have good technique, but I just know that it sounds far more horrific if I'm unsure of what I want to play!
Can’t blame him, would be so boring playing without improvising after all these decades
he's just jamming. for videos like this, it's cool to see
That’s what makes live shows amazing
I'm pretty sure he's never played any song the same way after recording the albums.
I love the quick shift from him being goofy in the intro to completely locked in from note 1
locked in + goofy at the same time
I love the way Chad doesn’t feel tied to the original recording and just plays whatever he wants. Bonzo was similar. Makes me feel free to play hard and loose too 👍🏻🥁
Same here! I have a tendency when I'm just playing along with music to want to stick to the original, but I'm learning to let myself do my own thing to a certain extent
Most drummers "play for the recording" when studio time comes. But live is another story.
@@benjaminvillarreal1499 Also they might not even remember what they recorded, because some musicians improvise while recording.
He gets easily bored, that's he feels to be playing in moment of not 😂
I knew that he was a super cool drummer, but these live versions are crazy. Thank you for focusing on Chad’s drumming. You made my day!
Crazy?
@@Bob-jl2oeCrazy good!
I love how this song seems like the tempo speeds up and slows down throughout … but it doesn’t, actually. The BPM is very steady. Chad’s drumming stylistic and rhythm choices give that variable-tempo illusion. It’s really cool, especially the work on the toms and the ride.
It's called "a real human playing"!
@@PurpleDreki I think it's actually good control over time dilation. A bad drummer would be out of sync with the time, a regular human would sound like you gave a monkey some sticks and it went apeshit.
I know you're just saying it's not computerized, but I feel like the way it was said undercuts his skill.
lol, thats cause the recording is on a click and chad is not.
日本人です。退屈していた学生時代に彩りをくれたのはあなた達のバンドでした。あれから10年以上経ちますが、今でも大好きです。今年の来日は住んでいるエリアが違って行けないのですが、日本に来日していただけるだけで嬉しくてテンションがあがります。生きている間に生演奏を拝みたいです。世界の極東から愛を込めて。
A
I love that he jammed to his own recording and played whatever he felt like in the moment
He's quickly becoming my favorite drummer. Such crazy technique mixed with great instincts, it's so awesome to watch.
He fully, completely understood the assignment. I love that he fully knows the expectation, that fellow drummers are watching. Drummers drummer. This version should be on Spotify.
Assignment?
This man was the reason I picked up my first pair of drum sticks. It’s now been 20 years… still to this day my favourite Drummer
Homie got so much control over every detail of what he's doing it looks like he's somewhere else in his mind, just chilling and vibing to the music his limbs are producing.
No matter what you think of RHCP you have to admit this is an incredible song. One of the best choruses in rock history
If there was ever someone BORN to do something- it was Chad and this song 😍
This Man has so much energy and just such an amazing vibe. Thank you Chad for all your showmanship throughout the years
That hi hat groove he does in the beginning with the clicks on the snare are amazing! Absolutely love the tom groove he does as well. In my opinion, the most impressive part of this video was the hi hat fix he does at around 1:51 with a slick stick change was so cool! Great video, great drummer
His passion runs true. He's still having fun. Phenomenal job!
Boy. What a drum mix. Drumeo is on top of their game. And chad is fantastic to watch. Loose and precise at the same time.
Please continue to let Chad out of your dungeons over at Drumeo every now and then, nice to see him back
The quiet confidence of the stick twirl always gets me. That’s when you know you’re the boss
Stick twirl gets you? My 5 yr old drummer son does it. What is so great about it?
@@Bob-jl2oe probably the same reason your 5 year old does it, it’s pure fun and Chad still gets it!
@@Bob-jl2oeAre you okay? You’re nitpicking so many comments here.
The RHCP are my favorite band but as a guitarist I never really payed much attention to the drum parts. These videos with Chad playing just gives me such another level of appreciation for theirs songs!
That's odd. The best best part of RHCP is the rhythm section. I, for one, am a lot less enthousiastic about Kiedis and Frusciante. RHCP with only guitar and vocals is very bland elevator music, nowadays.
@@pvdaele I agree with you but it just so happens that whenever I listen to them my mind just focus on the guitar parts thinking on how to play them 😅
All of them are killer musicians. Frusciante is so creative, groovy and never repeats himself in solos
@@pvdaele Respect Frusciante
Frusciante piss on you head @@pvdaele
This album for some reason always got me with the art cover. That weird painting full of inverted colors and a woman with a smirk on her face and eyes covered. I wonder what it means... It will always be one of my favorite album covers from the RHCP along with the pool of sky from Californication.
It’s so evocative. I really Love how the colors match the sound of the record. So wonderfully dark but vibrant
@@eze6982it wasn’t painted by John, it was a portrait of his girlfriend at the time Stella Schnabel, painted by her dad Julian Schnabel who is a famous artist
John did have huge creative input on that album
It's my favourite RHCP album. It's so melancholic yet hopeful.
Not the biggest RHCP fan, but massive fan of Chad - Insane stuff dude!
...same...the total package of power/style/energy/groove/tight/loose...
...I could do without Anthony rhyming his way through his entire career...

Drummers are the heart and soul of any band. Chad smith is so chilled but professional at the same time. Comfortable in his art. Legend.

How is drumeo guy the only one talking about Chad's dope jazz riff at 3:20 following Frusciante's guitar rhythm? I'd LOVE to hear THAT song too!!!
Chad the Tank is back, completely in symbiosis with his song. TOP
Chad, John, and Flea have such a great chemistry. Such a unique and catchy sound. People here on Anthony, but he fits this band like a glove. He’s the voice of the best rock band of the past 40 years
Chad is a masterclass is having a song form, and improvising on that based on the feel of the moment... so many little cheeky momements. Delightful!

This is a person who has literally just internalised the concept of rhythm into his flesh and bone. Also the vocal harmonies sound amazing here.
