So you change the snare and tombs every single day correct?
Man I cannot remember the last time I honestly was anticipating and excited about new content being released from a channel. These are awesome Matt. Keep it up my guy 🤘
@@EmmureMARIO64I think he addressed this in another video. For this band I believe it’s every other show unless the artist states otherwise
@@cjtraywick thank you 🤘🏻
@matthorndrums
I have so many questions that I would like to see a pinned response. First off what band are you setting up for ? Why use Remo heads vs Evans? Why Meinl Cymbals? Are these Industry standards or just specific to band preferences and other musical style preferences. I play with 3 kits Gretsch , Mapex and Yamaha . I know DW is amazing but out of my current price range. What is the purpose of the practice kit if you do this regularly ? Even if setting up for artist to practice? I just played a gig Saturday and then followed with a band practice with my second band on Sunday. I tour with the Mapex and use Gretsch @home for practice and use a Yamaha at 2nd band rehearsals. I tried Meinl customs and got spoiled by Zildjian Rock series. I hope I didn't throw too much at you . This looks like a fun gig setting up for these big shows.
Even as a guitarist this has become my new favorite channel. Keep em coming Matt. Your sub counter will continue to rise bro. No doubt.
I hope so! I love making these videos
Same, man! I’d kill to see a guitar tech doing these kinds of videos! @matthorndrums talk to some of your guitar tech buddies and try to convince them to make these kinds of videos as well! Love this channel
@@STSGuitar16 I was about to come in a ask for a guitar tech video haha!
@@MarkusSuomela it would be a great series for sure
Me too dude!!! I’ve binged these all day today. Such a killer job to have, and he’s a good dude giving us a behind the scenes!🤘👊🤘
i love these videos and benefit from each one. My kit sounds way better after i apply what i see. thank you so much!
Dude! Love to hear that!
I've been watching these nonstop. Great drumming too man. Cheers from Toronto! \m/
Love this tunning on the tons, i will try on my kit! Youre awesome man!! Grettings from Brazil
I like the technique. I think if you used a weight instead of your hand to apply pressure, you would get more consistent pressure as tighten your lugs. Awesome even still!
Best channel to watch while practicing some rudiments, pure joy!
I want all of you doing this during the premiers from now on.

As a pro audio tech and hobby drummer from Australia i want to say thankyou for everything you do!
I really enjoy the bird sounds vs the usual ozzie moaning into a microphone noises thats usually blasted during settingup/break down.
The subtitles are actually great for learning thanks for that!
Thankyou for turning them on haha!
@@matthorndrumsI really enjoyed watching your drum roadie for luke holland
How long have you been a roadie for luke holland
What does it feel to be a professional drum tech
Have you worked with other rock bands as a drum tech
TheSubtitlesareactually
ThankForathat!
GreatFotlearning
@ryanhutchinson9657 no disrespect by no means but roadie and drum tech two different things. Roadie travels with the band and helps carry stuff. A drum tech has the important job of making sure the drums are maintained and sound the best they can also make sure everything goes fine during the show
I love your drum tech videos....ive been a drummer for 18 years. Played at my church for 12 years before "retiring" myself to only play at home. Im decent, but not great...ill never be on stage or get to be a drum tech, but i can feel like it when i watch these! There is a satisfying feeling watching these. Thanks for taking the time to video, edit, and post !
Love these videos man. Please keep them up. Thanks for adding a full practice song in this one!
Great video Matt! I'm loving this content!
These videos are genuinely so captivating to watch, its such a joy to see insight into this side of things, can't stop binging these tbh
Bro, hope you do this content always, you help a lot with this type of videos and some tricks every drummer and tech should know. Thank you, you are huge!
Man, love the videos. I get so engrossed, the hour flies by. Great learning tool. Going to try out the new tom tuning technique. Keep em coming.
Always so satisfying to watch bro!
I feel so lucky to live this experience ! You guys are the men of shadows and nothing could be possible without you ! Can’t wait to see your next video ! Love them all
Love this channel bro. Very informative and cool to see behind the scenes
I was there for this show in Tacoma! Just saw this and I felt like I had a backstage pass. So cool. Thank you.
Great videos as always 😊
I was at this concert with my family. Nice to see behind the scenes for this. Thank You! Thumbs UP!
dude this is honestly inspiring knowing that i have another option to be a drum tech if my band doesnt work out haha, your videos are absolutely phenominal though! your the first and only youtuber to make 50+ minute vids and have my full attention with the whole thing, keep it up matt.
Amazing video! Loving this channel 👏👏👏
Oh my god dude, this is already my favorite channel ever.
Thanks for the hardwork! Cheers from 🇧🇷
Super excited to watch this tomorrow! Love your stuff bro!🔥

Man your awesome i been watching all of your videos now day specially the drum techs 🤘🏼
Another great video...keep them coming.
Matt, this never gets old. I've watched every one of your videos. I feel like I could set this kit up as well. NOT! HAHA. Thx again. BTW, would love to see some video of your travels from your house to the airport to the tour bus, etc. Safe travels!
I learned some time ago if you're ever in a pinch. If you're unable to fine-tune by hitting around the head. Take your drum key and tap on the lugs. If one is out of tune with other lugs, you'll definitely hear it. 👍
keep up the amazing content Matt!!!
KeepUPTheamazingContentMatt!!!!
I live about 30 mins from the Tacoma Dome, I’ve been to countless shows there and worked plenty as well. But it’s so awesome to finally see the backend side of things!! thank you so much for this video!
This channel reminds me so much of Solo Travel Japan’s channel which I’ve been watching for years yet it’s also like watching videos about music which I’ve been watching my whole life! so you’re combining two things I love, thanks man, this is amazing!!
legendary. love these videos man
Iegensary.LoveTheVideosman
Tremendo trabajo el tuyo Matt. Te sigo hace unos meses. Muy buenos tus videos. Sigue asi. Exitos y saludos desde Argentina!!
Every new video is just great and a joy to watch. The drumkit looks awesome and your skills are perfect. You tease me every time to pick up the drumsticks... maybe it's time... 😊
An overall rig rundown of the FIR backline gear would be great.😮
Please don’t stop these videos. They are amazing! 🔥🔥

Love your videos dude! Tripped me out when you showed the same guitar center I go to a few videos ago. Small world ✌️
Amazing drum tech
Just subbed. Can't wait to see the guys in February. Gonna be sick
Your videos are oddly entertaining Matt! Keep up the good work brother ❤

I’m a drummer and every time I watch your tech videos, I always learn something new I can use to make my shows go a lot smoother. Even just the lazy Susan for tuning. I love it!
Nice video like always!
I like the birds. They are chill. Another great one!!
As someone who's lived here since '98... Sorry you had to come to Tacoma!
Great content. much appreciated.
Hi from France! 🇨🇵 Great content! Thanks for your concept of long POV videos.
HiFromRranc!

Subbed! Fricking good stuff Matt!!
Subbed!FriCKingGoodStuffMatt!!
I'm just a music listener, with an eclectic taste in music genres. I really enjoy watching the hustle and bustle of bands playing at different venues and the hectic life of the support. Thanks for posting, take care 👍
I love the contrast of all this heavy machinery and stuff, all you hear is the bird chirping, its just hilarious. Also its really cool how Brooks kit splits in half to help stuff get pushed to the stage, really really smart
Just ran across this video and your channel. Great stuff. Live in the area Luke is from and my son and I follow him. Love seeing the other side of many of his videos. 🤘
Good practice and hand speed
I like the lyrics of your crew jam "HEY ONE TWO!" "HEEEY ONE TWO!" jokes a side neat video as always :D
U nailed it as usual! 😎👌🏻
33:57 Ah the mark of true "professional" musicians. I love your content man, keep it up!
This channel is an absolute gem! I absolutely love it! I'm thrilled about the upcoming tour and eagerly anticipate what you'll be sharing on the channel in the future. I have a suggestion: instead of the beautiful bird chants, could you consider incorporating some drum fills recorded by you? You're an amazing drummer!, I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but I would certainly enjoy that. Cheers!
My new favorite chanel!
that dw drum set looks amazing! a dream
Excellent work Matt, but I do get shivers when I see you chuck cymbals into the cymbal bag. Mine always get a nice fleece in between them!
Love the vids!!! From another AZ drummer 🤘
Also, the birds are chill, and so much better than the chopping audio. Great addition, and the transition from mic to birds isn’t too abrupt.
Killer shit once again! Keep it up!
Thanks dude!
Great contents as always, dude!
Only recently i've found out your channel. And, as i thought, you're a fellow drummer. I love these vids and i'm always in awe with your work and how everything it's on place and shine haha
Anyway, keep up the amazing work. Can't wait for the next gem you'll put on here for us!
Thanks for the kind words, man!
Great video. You are super great at what you do.❤❤❤
Thanks dude!
thank you for the new video! been waiting for your uploads lol

u good? @@faithgarcia8660
🔥 🔥🔥professionalism to its finest my brother
For that finger tip tuning, I do that sometimes as a "quick and dirty" way to get going. I ended up using this little 5lbs or so paperweight I had on my desk so I always had even pressure in the middle made it that much easier to get through it and if you're comfy with it, can do back to two hand tuning with the keys
Damn that Coleman ride sounds sick, man!
I like the drum dial conditioner! Makes seating the heads smooth. And it smells good!
Nice! Thanks! Ordering some right now
Funny you mentioned Motley Crue there, I saw Green Day and Blink 182 there as a kid, and Travis did the whole upside down drumming thing on that tour too
As a massive drum nerd/player for 30 years, this shit is catnip. Nice man!
yo thanks for the reminder
I use the palm of my hand and put a fairly good amount of weight on the head, and then I get the wrinkles out. I really like this method. Love the videos, man!
Thank you Matt for these videos. So oddly satisfying, love them, but I wanted you to know that because of you we discovered Falling in Reverse and they are fantastic. The band has gotten a couple new fans, and it's all on you. Cheers dude....stay safe.
Love the video and channel! FWIW, could we start seeing some videos with sone other things besides getting the kit set up? We’ve seen you crush that a few times and it’d be cool to get something fresh like a video of your toolbox, tour stories, interviews with other crew members, clips of you working during the show or taking us through the day off/travel portion. Just something fresh besides set up/tear down..
Great channel and great job!!! Thank you!!!!
I was taught to change the head/skin and tighten like a tire ( star shape to tighten back n forth) but I see your way works as well, I will have to stay with my way since I am use to it and some time (and they do 90% of the time no matter how far ahead you thinks you are) things go wrong after replace the heads.
Tried this tuning method july 2023 and it worked great. When rimples are gone tone/tuning is already close to final when you like a deep sound.
Perhaps the traditional cross method /patterns for the tuning key during this process gives a more equal distribution of tension.
The Remo head problem: mostly each head is in a different box. The problem may be connected to storing them all in 1 plastic bag during transport.
If Remo ships them this way to you, you may contact them. Drumshops have big racks with each head in a box: that is the normal shipping method for quality drum heads.
If they want to save costs because your heads are 0 $ because of the endorsement; they may consider 1 multi-box for each size of drumhead.
Thanks for the video :) And JAW (just above wrinkle) tuning makes shit go pretty quick.. BTW kinda dig the calmness of the birds :)
this honestly seems like a fun job
I love your stuff reminds of the good old days with ZZ Fleetwood Prince live the sounds of back of house
Ooh excited!!
Good greif that room is nutty.
Bro. Tell me about it.
Bearing edge conditioner always! Definitely try it!
Hey Matt. Thanks for the videos. Always a treat! Would you mind referencing the video where you learnt the new tuning technique?
Thanks... Stay Well! 🎉
I have that same pocket knife. I love that thing
Sube mas vídeos bro
Saludos desde mexicali
Chingón el vídeo te la rifaste 🙏🔥😍
You probably know this tuning technique but thought I would recommend it!
Push down on the rim with one hand over each rod and finger tight and then maybe a ¼ to ½ turn. Fastest way I’ve found to tune! Love the videos by the way!
Can't wait!
Awesome Sauce!
killed it as always. would love a link to a "what's in my toolbox" type-page with all your must haves. would be sick
You deserve 100k Subs already
I usually can't sit trough full movie, not even full Family Guy episode, but Your videos keep my attention whole 50minutes. Thanks and good luck!
Weird lyrics for such a banger of a song, but it’s easy to memorize and I really enjoy singing along. “Hey! One Two…..Hey!….Hey! One Two.👀😆you can absolutely rip on the drums dude. I really enjoy all parts of your videos, but the line checks and crew jams are my favorites. Keep up the great work!
Hi Matt, If someone has mentioned this before, ignore. But if you were to install some forklift "pockets" on the underside of the risers, you'd have much less of a "hold your breath" moment during the lifts. They aren't perfect but IF that load started to slip left or right, they would prevent it from toppling right off the forks. There are many companies that offer pre-engineered, bolt on units and a google search had many hits. The manufacturer of your particular risers may even have them as option. Carry on!
Loving ya content as always man! Idk about anyone else but ive resubscribed 3 times now wtf youtube!
also, at the end of the video, invest in an led headlamp. tons of options for comfort and brightness
Hope all is well brotha! Rockville announced should be a good one! See all there!
See ya there!x
