I saw an interview with Neil Peart a few years back when he commented about how Gavin was one of the drummers he was most impressed by in the modern day. I would take that as the ultimate complement!!
For sure!
I saw an interview where Gavin Harrison was asked about Neil Peart’s drumming to which Harrison replied he doesn’t listen to “that type of music”. Hmmmmmm...
@@magiscichoam lol GH played for king crimson he's probably just fucking around.
@@magiscichoam I've seen him in a number of interviews mention that he is a jazz & big band guy- so this doesn't surprise me. (Although I am sure he is aware of who NP is)
@@TwoandaHater I’ve seen GH live several times with Porcupine Tree and The Pineapple Thief. For me (I read and write music and drum charts) there is absolutely no comparison between GH and NP. GH is much more versatile, is smooth and fluid, can actually groove, can read and write drum notation and has an extensive discography. There’s so much media and “readers polls” nonsense attributed to NP’s drumming and his capability as a lyricist that it borders on the ridiculous. To nickname NP “The Professor” is a misnomer of the highest order. For example Bill Bruford has an actual PhD in music from the University Of Surrey and has lectured at universities in Europe and North America on music composition and percussion. I mean no disrespect to NP but considering the numerous bands and fantastic drummers I’ve seen live (since 1966), NP is a solid rock drummer but light years from the best.

Pretty much everyone goes nuts here: the crazy bass parts, that insane guitar solo, Harrison's out of this world drumming, the keyboard sounds... It's like a big "fuck it, let's go bananas"... 🤣
HAHA Yup!
Indeed, its insanely good.
Message from the future: You should hear the whole album.
Words fail to describe it.
And Steve even doesn't see himself as a musician. What's going on in his mind?
Gavins drumming is mindblowing. Love to listen to his playing and I'm not even a drummer.
All non-drummers welcome!
Porcupine Tree will always be a legendary band. Gavin has some of his best material in that band and cemented himself as an icon of prog forever.
I agree Daniel!
To be fair...you don't get asked to play in a band led by Steve Wilson by being crap at what you do. The man demands absolute perfection, on every level. A prolific, brilliant, musician and producer. It's actually not surprising that GH would be the only choice for this band...and what a symphony they all create!
100% Adam!
Well, Steven was not that keen on Gavin when his name was proposed because of his resume with Level 42 and others so he made him audition! After one song he just said "sorry to have wasted your time" and Gavin was in the band.
There's a documentary here on the making of the Album "In Absentia" which was Porcupine Tree's breakout piece. Steven Wilson says he fired the original drummer two weeks before they went into the studio and was panicking about it all falling apart and the keyboardist said "I know a guy I've played with before and I think we could get..." so they brought in Gavin and it all clicked. So in this one case it wasn't Steven Wilson demanding the perfect drummer, he was desperate for any decent drummer that would do ... and somehow he ended up with the perfect drummer after all.
My cousin worked at a venue where steven wilson played, and he said he was pretty pretentious lmao.
@@intredastingvideos9365 your cousin sounds pretty opinionated, lmao.
I miss Porcupine Tree - they were amazing!
Sure are Armin!
Yeah, definitely.
Ja
Aye 😔 so many amazing memories...
@@abramhayes1206 no nobody cares
THE drummer of the last 20 years.
And for the next 10... And could be more
Can't disagree with either statement
Andrew, you guessed the improve exactly right. This song wasn’t originally written with Gavin Harrison, it was on an album before he joined. So in concert, he was free to recreate the whole drum piece as only Gavin can do. I actually saw him at a drum clinic and he said he sees all the instruments music in his head and plans out new fills three measures ahead. Pure genius at work.
Seen Gavin live a few times and attended a drum clinic he did in about 2012. One of my faves for sure. His treatment of the drums as a foundational instrument as well as progressing the instrument further than most drummers I have personally seen is still unmatchable in my opinion. Nothing is off limits to the guy, he doesn't look down on metal, jazz, pop, prog,blues, funk ect. ... he sees music as we all should, a huge toy box to tip on the floor and make our own story
Excellently put!
Love it Richard!
Exactly, and brings the drums to the front of a band alongside the other instruments instead of fading into the shadows behind and keeping time for the rest of the band like Neil and Danny!!! ❤️🥁
His tone, composition, stick control, dynamics, creativity, the greatest of our era.
Masterful
Gavin playing live is killer, he will never play the exact same thing, there a good amount of improvisation there.
Great Daniel!
I was at this performance in the front row way back in 2005. It was simply unreal.
Wow!
That was amazing. This is my first time hearing this band and man, now I'm gonna have to listen to everything they have now.
That is music to my ears!
Bless your ears with Anesthetize, then move on to the album (Fear of a Blank Planet).
You're in for a wild ride. PT is absolutely my favorite band. GH is my favorite drummer. And Wilson is phenomenal as a band leader and solo artist as well. I started listening to them in the mid 2000's and haven't looked back.
Enjoy the ride, mate. 👌🏻
Harrison joined for “In Absentia” and the remaining PT albums. Wilson had him overdub the first couple albums to replace the original drum machine, but he’s deliberately playing simpler parts there. I think Chris Maitland, who’s on the albums from “Sky Moves Sideways” through “Lightbulb Sun,” is no slouch, but Harrison’s from another planet.
You definitely should check out his Pineapple Thief drumming.
Can't wait to get to it!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Please react to White Mist I'm begging you !
From getting into music in 1980 when I first heard The Spirit of Radio by Rush I always had Neil Peart as the ultimate drummer. Then I heard Gavin Harrison with Porcupine Tree. Just simply the best in my opinion. Loving your reactions as always!!!
Thanks Alan!
Listened to this with headphones on. The rest of the people in my house asked if I was OK. Must have been the faces I was pulling. Omfg best upload on your channel. I just lost my shit
HAHA! YESSSSS
It was such a pleasure to hear you comments on probably my favourite live performance by arguably the best band of all times.
The reason he has to be considered one of the greatest ever is ability to write all these absolute sublime parts, in conjunction with perfect technique and tonality. No drummer has ever had the headroom Gavin is working with.
He's one of the absolute best. Incredible facility.
You nailed it Brendan!
Truly one of the best live shows ever recorded by any band ever...
I LOVE the sound of his kit! PERFECT! OMG that snare! A thick CRACK!
Yup. Dream sounds
And they are back! So,looking forward to the new album
Hey Andrew, Gavin is truly a musician's drummer. I enjoyed your obvious appreciation for the musicianship shown in this video.
I had seen Gavin Harrison on Drumeo and.he struck me as a thoughtful individual who really played for the music. And while the kind of music he plays calls for some serious chops, he uses his technical facility to serve the song rather than his ego. I was as equally impressed by his humility as well as his musical knowledge.
One thing that stood out for me in this video was how he often used rests at the end of his fills to create tension just before the release on the downbeat. This is probably old news to many drummers, but it was the first time I really became aware of it.
As usual, thanks.
Brilliantly said Jake!
When he said Hatesong HD I knew exactly what 2 seconds it was requested for
I know...
Gavin Harrison, stunning drummer 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Porcupine Tree totally levelled up when Gavin Harrison joined. Chris Maitland (the original drummer) was really good too, but Gav is a whole other level.
Nice! I haven't checked out Chris. I'm sure he's a boss too
Who played for Steven Wilson. That guy was good
@@JohnSmith-hl7kd I don't think Steven Wilson has had a drummer that isn't great.
Listen to the live version of “The Sky Moves Sideways” on the “Coma Divine” album for a good example of Maitland’s abilities.
@@JohnSmith-hl7kd Marco Minnemann?
I love knowing that people out there are reacting the same way I did when I first saw gavin play live(on youtube) -even as a young drummer at the time. simply awestruck, massive smile.
Admire your significant other the same way Andrew admires Gavin.
HAHA
The old man with glasses meme gets me every time, haha.
HAHA!
I just discovered a gem. The coolest Porcupine Tree song I've heard yet. "The Start of Something Beautiful", live from the Chicago 2005 show.
Gavin Harrison was just voted "Drummer with the Biggest Toolbox"... well I just made that up but it could be true. This song certainly helps his case.
Actually, Porcupine tree started out in 1987, although in the beginning it was basically Steven Wilson's one man show. It gradually evolved into a real band over the following years. The first record with longtime bandmates Colin Edwin (b) and Richard Barbieri (k) came out in 1993. Gavin Harrison (dr) replaced original drummer Chris Maitland in 2002, John Wesley (g,v,) joined around the same time.
Wow! That old!?
Did the drumming only ever give me goosebumps, holy crap!!!
Me too Bob!
On the DVD ,which this a part of ,Gavin passes out ,consciously, at the end splayed across his kit.
YES! Gavin Harrison and Porcupine Tree is a match made in heaven!
Yes Nathan!
That tom thing with the thumb gets me every time.
I saw Porcupine Tree twice live. Man they were beyond awesome.
I miss live music.
I hope to see them one day Jaska!
Gavin is my biggest inspiration, love him
Great Robin! 🥁💯🙌
Wow I haven't seen this in years! I have this gig on DVD it's fantastic
So good Lachlan!
Is this gig on an album release?
@@mvellis3863 yep the live album is called "Arriving Somewhere"
His best performances are this, Cheating The Polygraph, and 19 Days. Just absolute masterpieces.
Nice!
I love, how you explain things. Entertaining even to a layman like me.
Excellent!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Have you seen this video?
ua-cam.com/video/XUA_n04C1bs/v-deo.html
@@AndrewRooneyDrums I agree! Watching your evaluations as you watch other drummers is as pleasurable as watching your children open their gifts in Christmas! Your exuberance and commentation draws a portrait of the music, not just spouting technical jargon trying to prove your expert knowledge. You are humble showing your excitement like the rest of us! 😁❤️🥁
No part of that set was left untouched ...and done masterfully
Yes Phil!
you've looking for the whole video at Harrison, like Thordendal at Agren... 'love is in the air' lalala... :D
😂👌
Gavin Harrison lesson on Drumeo was eye opening inspirational!
I need to see that Edgar!
You probably must see "Slippin away" from PASIC2008 ;P
Brilliant piece of music! This group is so tight!! I could listen to this over and over!! Holy Sh#$
Yes. That's it, Yes.
Yes it is
On this very stage I was able to see the original ASIA... and I was able to get All four members autograph.. yippee
I was there in the front row for both nights!!!
Oh wow! HA
How was it?
I'm sad I didn't see it the day you uploaded this video. I'm glad to see you lived through the performance :). For another Gavin masterclass I suggest Porcupine Tree Futile (which somehow is a B-side). There is a drum playthrough of the song too. If you want to try a song with Chris Maitland (the original drummer) I suggest Dislocated Day off the live album Coma Divine (10x better than the studio version).
Thank you!
I recall seeing Porcupine Tree in 2002 at the Double Door in Chicago - about 3 years prior to the video. Small venue - probably 500. First time Gavin had toured with them. Everyone came knowing it would be good. But we were stunned. Gavin took an already great band to the next level. Incredibly tight band. Only comparison I could give was Genesis in early 80s. But those were arena shows. Being there in a small venue to experience it. Wow.
I think Danny Carey would take your comments as an extreme compliment. To see a lineup with Gavin, Mike P. , and Danny in the same show will sell out Wembley twice. Maybe thrice. Hell it might give me a reason to finally get a passport and visit England. Great reaction.
The man bleeds proficiency. Great video, sir!
So good Noah!
What a great request! A friend recommended Porcupine Tree to me very recently. I had no idea how good this was going to be. Especially the percussion, but the whole band is great.
Glad you enjoyed it Scott! 🙏
His drum clinics are so fun to watch him playing to the studio version on a laptop.❤
IMO one of the greatest drummers of ALL time! BTW I agree with the Danny Carey comment Andrew. Elite prog drummers both! Danny’s polyrhythms alone require someone of Gavin’s caliber.
The communication between gav and steven is telepathic. He’s one of my favorite drummers bc of his technicality but also his restraint, their balance together is 😙👌
Yes Erik!
Yeah man, Gavin’s sound is BRILLIANT!
Gavin is a Roller coaster ride of creativity. Hard to describe but you have to experience it to take it all in. He’s the pinnacle Iceberg, his depth is otherworldly
One of the absolute best Rob!
I love Gavin on everything, but for whatever reason I love him the most playing Porcupine Tree's "Mother and Child Divided", live.
One of my all time fav drummers. I love how creative he is and when he plays his ghost notes with his fingers. 🖤🖤
He's the man Chad!
I know you're Chad, but Gavin is the ultimate Chad 😝
Wow! You actually said at 7:20 what I've always thought and been saying to my fellow rockers all this while. If there's anyone who could fill in Danny Carey if need ever be, it can only and only be Gavin Harrison! 🤘🏼
YESSS!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums If you could do Bonnie the Cat by Porcupine Tree from Gavin Harrison's Guitar Centre Sessions, it'd be awesome! 🤘🏼
Gavin is a master at developing a part to be intricate and complex without sounding technical while still focusing on what will improve the music. His playing is absolutely tasteful
BTW just submitted a PayPal request and cant wait to see your reaction, should be epic!! Lol
Thanks Charlie!
Gavin plays so emotionally in his PT days. In solo shows and Crimson he is much more reserved.
Master Class!
YUP
YES!!! Gavin could definitely fill in for Danny!!! They both have that same sense of not everything needs to be heavy to be intense!!!
While they are comparable, only when you begin imagining them in each other's bands do you realize how different it would sound and how different they are as drummers. Gavin definitely has that versatile session drummer approach whereas Danny is more interested in maintaining his own unique style. That isn't to say that Gavin doesn't have his own unique style.
Gavin Harrison has breakdowns inside of his breakdowns…. He hits that 10” China like it was a bad dog in a previous life
The drummer with the most crisp technique of all time surely. 👌
And the clip is so old too!
This reminds me alot of when i was in music shool 10 years ago and me and my drumteacher just showed each other drummers on UA-cam every lesson. Time well spent
Excellent Mikael!
I see so much love for this song, Anesthitize and Arriving, but I feel Way Out Of Here live in Tilburg does not get mentioned nearly enough. Brilliant vocals by Wesley, stellar drums by Harrison, especially on the outro and perfect moodsetting by Barbieri!
Thanks for the tip 🥁🙌
gotta say that's one of my fav song of Porcupine Tree too, and it has to be that live version, the studio version doesnt have that same feel though...
I have seen him live twice with King Crimson in a 3-drummer-setup. In parts of the show they get to improvise alltogether, shifting drum parts between the 3 drummers. They are all great but I allways sensed that Gavin was the anchor where the pocket sits. They all play rather ridiculous stuff, and when they get lost a little they look at Gavin and he picks them up. My observation, I might be wrong. But great fun to watch.
Thank you so much for reacting to this mate! I love this performance so much can’t wait to see your reaction!
Amazing Oliver!
One of my favourite Andrew Rooney reactions to date.
YESSSSSS
Caligulas Horse are similar. They take you on these journeys 15mins long & you never want it to end
It Will always amaze me how well gavins kit sounds in all the music that he plays. Every single drum, cymbals and hit is just so well in tune with the feeling of the song. World class !
Sickeningly perfect Tobias. I'm jealous
I love Gavin but oh man do I love the bassline in this song. Almost as much as I love Halo.
Have you looked at his King Crimson work? Three amazing drummers!
It would be great to see Steven Wilson and Porcupine Tree play with David Sylvian.
👍 great drummer reaction.
this performance of hatesong is really astonishing :oooooooooooo
I am going watch these beasts this year in November!
Wow, I have goosebumps! GH is an incredible bad ass drummer. I have never been so awestruck😮 with a drummer and how effortless and easy it is laid out. I agree with you and saying he could fill it and do it justice. Keep it up I thoroughly enjoy your content and direction.. Thanks for giving us this page🎉
One of my favorite performances by Gavin & the entire band. Seen them twice & they had right near the top of the best sound I've ever heard from a live band. Loud, but not too loud, & very clear. You could easily hear every instrument in the mix, damn near perfect sound coming out of the PA system.
This is probably one of my all time favorite live drum performances.
Oh it's gooooood
the meme inserts make this react channel so much fun 😂
Thanks!
I wish PT would come back. I only got to see them one time in Atlantic city in 2007ish. It was absolutely amazing. I was a fan for many years before. I'd love to see them again.
Not even started n I smashed that like button. Hate Song live is fan-kin-tastic !
UNBELIEVABLE
@@AndrewRooneyDrums when he wets his finger n drags it over the skin ... I was grinning like a Cheshire cat . Never seen anyone do that before.
Have you reacted to "Wedding Nails" live from this same show? Gavin's footwork is sick throughout !!
I haven't yet David!
I totally agree with you about Gavin Harrison. Few people have such tremendous ability on a technical level but also the tact to apply it properly and creatively.
Nailed it Dallas!
Gavin) perfection
Agree Martin!
As far as I know, this is all composed. Having seen Steven Wilson three times, twice with Gain, they render these extended jams pretty much as advertised every time. I stand to be corrected, but as far as I know, like with Peart and Lifeson, these are all composed solos, composed jams. Tight, propulsive, carefully orchestrated and rendered with video background and click track. I remember hearing Gain talk about how he talks to himself on the click track, telling himself what is coming...
Oh right! Okay!
If you watch Porcupine Tree or Steven Wilson for any length of time you realsie it is all pretty much tight like a drum, from album to stage, SW composes this stuff and that is what they deliver live - with, if anything, a grooving drive and power that elevates the composition, but does not really alter it at all.
i hope you noticed and just forgot to point out the metric/rhythmic modulation trick he frequently. does the modulation for only a few bars to grab your attention but by the time you notice this he switches back. i used read all interviews with him and he mentioned this there. since them i unable to not notice it.
There's a lot to take in!
I am back because this is such an great reaction to a great song. :)
I like his style of play. He's awsome. Thanks for the show Andrew enjoyed it. Stay safe.
Thanks for watching Wayne!!
Gavin's part here is VERY different from the original song, which he did not play on. The drummer for the original is Chris Maitland. You should check out that version.
Complete musicians… that is Porcupine Tree.
Would love to see Steve and Gavin playing on an album again.
Hell yes!
😊 Magnifique !
YES!
Gavin Harrison ABSOLUTELY would be the best fit to fill as a Tool drummer
Yup no sweat for Gavin
I agree. He’s genius. No doubt.
Man, I just LOVE your reactions! I'm totally hooked! And those reactions for Gavin Harrisson videos... You should do a week just of Gavin HAHAHAHA so good!
Cristiano... that sounds like a challenge! HAHA
I love this band I'm so glad you did a review.
Great Casper! 🥁💯👍
Some reactions are meant to be revisited. This is one of them.
Hey thanks!
Exactly. I've lost count of all the times I've watched and shared (to everyone's absolute delight) this fantastic reaction.
