    As a professional drummer I really enjoy your point of view, especially the catering section lol. Anyway, I’m really thankful to my drum tech and appreciate the massive job you guys do for us every night and it’s really sad that sometimes no one notices the importance of what you do. Btw I see all your videos till the end! (Sorry for any mistake, I’m Italian :)) Cheers!

    As a drummer still in high school, these videos hype me up and inspire me so much. I love watching them to see how drummers set up their kits and how you take such good care of them. Keep up the good work, these are awesome.

  • @felipeborgias

    I'm a drum teacher here in Curitiba, I just love your videos, I use them as part of my classes, so future drummers can see all the work and love it takes to be a drummer, on and off stage.
    Thank you for your videos, they are awesome!

    • @matthorndrums

    Just found your channel Matt and it's great. I had a magic & illusion show for years, and it was a lot of hard pre-show work. But this humbled me. People just don't realize the well oiled machine of technicians working behind the scenes on a show this size. You guys are true pros and make it all happen.

    Hi Matt. Thank you for another cool video. I watched all the way through. I was a local stage hand for 14 years and am also a hug e fan of Luke Holland so your videos have twice the appeal to me. Its like having a flashback of being at work and it's a positive flashback. Seeing Luke's set up in these videos feels like a privelige so it must feel like an honour to be the person that gets to take care of them daily.
    During load in, I was shocked to see you and the local crew guy go straight for the handles when lowering the smaller case that was riding on the drum case. I was taught - never trust handles on cases.
    Thanks again for sharing your videos.
    Be safe and have a great tour.
    Cheers

Always look forward to your content. And seeing other good techs like pip (beartooth) doing the damn thing. I’m sure you get comments like this all the time but thank you for taking the time to share what goes on behind the scenes & your hard work. I have a deep appreciation for touring techs.

That being said I enjoyed these last 2 videos, really get to see and appreciate the work stage hands and techs do. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    Allthough the scale is somewhat bigger (as a Dutch drummer in a alternative band i played big stages and festivals but this is all a serious level above that) all the rest Matt does really hits home.... did all this stuff myself so often i dreamt about it! all those stuff in flightcases and bags..the vibes backstage....I love setting the drums up, changing heads, tuning, doing maintanance...and then the drumming itself ofcourse! Getting strangely nervous again when seeing the moments just before go show! You are a true professional...Great work and vids man!
