I was fortunate enough to have have a drum stick from him last week a their show in Europe, and let me tell you I feel soo lucky... We should feel that way we have this guy in the business..
ahhhh DaRcy, its all subjective. assuming you're a drummer like myself, I have yet to master some of the moves and ive been at it for years. Sure its mostly basic, but he has a style I have yet to see from anyone else. as far as legends, as mentioned, its all in the eyes of the beholden. besides at that level, its a given all drummer are rad in there own way......hope all that made sense
Whoever recorded this video originally thank you. This takes me back to the glorious Shiley Acres days! Shannons definitely my top 3 drummers and another just passed , while Shannon honors him. Its just an awesome video! Larkin is the level that can play the intricate Peart, with DMC funk and his sick mode is beyond most!!
I roadied for Wrathchild in the early 80's and at 14 you could tell he was going to be one of the greats. Loved his style his insanity and l Loved him. Awesome dude proud of ya Shannon!!
I saw him perform in the 80s when he was with wrathchild. He was awesome then & even moreso now. The best drummer I've ever seen. Keep rocking Shannon! 🤘
Always fun to watch play, a true drumgod and supercool guy. Our old bands used to play together back in the day, hung out many times, he's even been over to my house before. Lost touch with him after he joined GODSMACK though, would love to catch up.
He is the true animal behind the kit, Every time i see Godsmack live, im having a complete blast , Shannon leave in all on the drum. Got a drumstick on my last show, believe me those cymbale are getting beat up with those heavy drumsticks. Drum legend
It’s amazing how far left that Hihat is and he has to stretch his left leg over so far to step on that Hihat pedal. Most drummers would have leg/hips problems trying to reach that far left.
@@bignastytiger4174 right. He was the drummer for his former band. Also played all the tracks on Godsmacks debut album. He and Shannon put on a helluva duel.
Hell ya now you got the the fucken good shit jimmy !!!!! You know what the fuck is going on my brother !!!! Fucken killer shit !! Sabina all the way !!! Just look at those holy Chinas O ya!
Shannon is on his own level!
carved out his own style backed up by unmatched skill. Incredibly entertaining to watch.
Master class! Respect 🤜🏼🤛🏼

It is an honor to see the man, the legend enjoy his job. We are truly lucky to have him on this planet!

Wuz there, Hammerjacks and all the rest!
Shiley Acres , W.V is home to me thank you Greg Shiley .Would have loved to see Shannon with Wrath Child.

Shannon is so underrated. His animation and energy is the best behind a kit.
This is the best video ever and mostly what I am staring at during Godsmack concerts. LOVE SL!

Shannon must have been a martial artist in his previous life. What a legend
was bruce lee even more ripped
A beast for sure. Absofuckinloutly one of my favorite drummers. And a huge nod to Sully!
Why a huge nod to sully? Just the singer.
Yes, Definitely..!
I was lucky enough to play in a band with Shannon's old guitar player Terry Carter (Wrathchild America) in the early 2000s. Big shoes to fill.
Tell you what he's a bad ass drummer !!! Seen Godsmack about 6 times in concert. Awesome
Love how over time the drum solo between them builds.... good stuff 🤘🤘
Shannon definitely is a song player
Tysm
As Much as I dig Godsmack I would love to see Shannon and Wrathchild America get back together and do an Album! Plus Thrash Is always my number 1
I always knew he was a beast since straight out of line came out..but daaaaaaamn this seconded my opinion for sure!
by far, the best drummer in the market
I just fucking love it man.
Brilliant. #drummergirl drummer goals right here... Fellow destroyer of silence!
HOT DAM LOVE THOSE DRUMS ESPECIALLY WITH ANY MAN WHO DOES IT SO FUCKING GOOD.
It’s amazing how far left that Hihat is and he has to stretch his left leg over so far to step on that Hihat pedal. Most drummers would have leg/hips problems trying to reach that far left.
Shannon is built like a spider....
And fucken ray from corn another fucken BEAST!!!! Rock on jimmy you got my vote!
Holy Frkng Hell..!!! Shannons "the" bomb!!! Damn... "The" Best.
Why is "the" in quotes twice? Genuine question.
Wanna know how good Larkin is, second to none....
First to all
Two words .. daney Carey :)
Mr larkin i the best drummer since john Bonham. Sully is multiple talented too. I love godsmack my favorite band. Keep it up
I know this is about Shannon but dayum Sully, is pretty damn badass himself.
Sully stared out as a drummer before forming Godsmack. He a legit badass drummer!
@@bignastytiger4174 right. He was the drummer for his former band. Also played all the tracks on Godsmacks debut album. He and Shannon put on a helluva duel.
Both of them together though are beast period but he is the man
I love his work with Wrathchild America and Souls at Zero
you can see how he feels every stick hitting the skins!!!! this dude is a legend!! funny thing, i've known him musically since the 80's!!! lol!!!!
Shannon rules #1 in my book
Can someone help telling what the name of the song at 7:15? Great performance, never seen drummer acting like that while playing. Awesome !
Pretty sure its 'The Enemy'
The Enemy
Sully is right there with him they are GREAT!!!
There is no song that Godsmack can't play !!!
Never seen this before , this man knows his shit
Totally bad ass….but those coconut sounds at the end 😂
Time for a Wrathchild America reunion!
Emmmhmmmm
Exactly!
Man I wonder what kind of Drum Throne he's using. Looks like it's lower spine friendly.
It was special made for him...The center is routed out to hold sticks.....
@@jimmythundarrsdrumcoverser492 No kidding?!?!

Best
7:15 is called alive
Red hash at hammerJacks 😳🎁
Fucking legend! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Sick
Best 🥁
Is that an actual song that they performed first ? If yes, name please!!
Its actually a drum battle between sully erna (lead singer) and Shannon larkin. Fuckin bad ass. And sully is little bad ass on the drums too
He is but Larkin is unreal
their drum duet was cool for about 5 years. it's old. it's played out.
Hell ya now you got the the fucken good shit jimmy !!!!! You know what the fuck is going on my brother !!!! Fucken killer shit !! Sabina all the way !!! Just look at those holy Chinas O ya!
Purrection 🥁
Rad 🥁
HE'S GREAT!! JUST WISH HE HADN'T PUT 666 ON THE BACK OF HIS SHIRT!!!
Absolutely agree... disappointing
So what?
7:12: he moves like a damn praying mantis lol
Poor audio.
.
I sometimes feel srry that Shannon doesn't get his own moment in concert, but he needs to pay the biils
Unprovoked?
Any fool with 666 on his T doesn't really understand what that means.
Some learn to play an instrument, and some find an extension
