Imagine you're Slipknot's drummer, you have already played a full set with your band with all those crazy drum parts and you get asked to play basically another set with Metallica and deliver a brilliant performance with zero rehearsals. Joey was an absolute monster of a drummer.
Dave lombardo had to play a set with slayer before he played with Metallica..basically they both ran a marathon in 90 mins just to turn around and do it again. im a drummer and i know how grueling it can be one min your approaching the wall but you break threw and keep going! even further that you thought was possible! ive never had a more physically demanding job than being a hardcore metal punk drummer..

Joy jordison interview : “A lot of people give this guy shit, but they need to shut their fucking mouths because Lars Ulrich is probably one of the best and most innovative drummers ever. I got to tour with the guy and I watched him play every night from behind the kit, and his double bass was completely on point. He’s also one of the best businessmen that keeps this type of music going; he’s the heart of the whole fucking community, because Metallica are the kings. There’ll never be anybody that will match them, and Lars is a huge, huge part of that. Without that guy, and the influence of that band, I wouldn’t even be sitting here talking to you. Lars is one of my gods and he always will be. That guy fucking rules, period. So when I got the call asking if I’d fill in for him at Download Festival, of course I knew everything because he’s one of my hugest influences. I remember playing to his shit all the time growing up and trying to be as good as him. Our technical abilities are way different but I’ll still never be as good as that guy, and getting to sit in his stool was one of the biggest fucking dreams come true. What an honour. I love that dude.”
@David Duke think about the amount of footage that shows him being a badass behind the kit, I guarantee theres an ocean load more than him looking like shit
Lol you can see the moment in seek and destroy where they all fall in love with Joey. He got comfortable and he killed it. Played it better than Lars even can. 👨🍳
@@russkate88 YES. you're the first commenter I've ever seen who knows what's going on.... Lars is perfectly competent (look at 96-2000 live performances) but he lost his discipline and wants to be a lead drummer
This was a great watch. Big respect for the guests who stepped up and joinded the band on short notice. Massive skill and balls to go live on stage unrehearsed like that even if youre familiar with the music
Dave is such a confident drummer it’s crazy. He smashes the shit out of the snare. It’s funny to watch him towards the end of MOP he’s trying to hit crashes that aren’t there and probably are on his kit!
26:30 The crowd is chanting "die, die, die" and James says "make lars hear you" as if he wanted lars to die. Meanwhile, lars is in the hospital. hmmmmmmmmmm.
I can't stop watching this performance, Joey was amazing. One thing I have to point out, you can tell he was extremely nervous, he's known to headbang during his performances and he wasn't doing any of that during the MetallicA one. He wanted everything to be perfect. Joey, you were perfect. Rest in Peace.
@@davidstockdale4187 His timing wasnt that correct tho. Joey was amazing, on top of everyone here. To play like this after his own gig? Along with your childhood gods? Without preparation? Foocking MONSTER!
Even though Joey was in one of the biggest metal bands of all time I bet this was a huge childhood dream come true for him. You can see it in his face 😂
"Lars" "fine drummer" - pick one. Make no mistake, I've been a Metallica fan since Kill 'em all, but you cannot seriously compare Lars' drumming now and 20 years ago. I've heard them live more than once and his drumming really sucks. S&M might be the last time I heard him play well.

Wow out of this hole lineup I only like two songs I would be wasting time and money to go see these guys but I am here for Dave Lombardo I had to see him kick some ass on drums
@@slushbox3443 dam I nearly love every one of these songs I mean they coulda put maybe like jump in the fire or phantom lord or metal militia and it would of been perfect
JPX64 That’s his drum tech not it’s nowhere as bad that the fact Lars had been playing for like 25 years at that point and for him to get as bad as he did is embarrassing but Lars’ drum tech playing history is unknown so I give him the benefit of the doubt unlike Lars
@@Disasterpiece31 This basically means Lombardo only knows those songs well. Joey is obviously a much bigger fan as he was a kid growing up listening to Metallica.
@@mustafagulergin942 well considering this wasn’t his own kit and pedal settings ( which matter so much with double bass ) it is no wonder he made some mistakes, I would as well if it was me.🤷🏼♂️
That fuckin' double bass on Creeping Death was awesome. I used to be a huge Slipknot fan, i kinda lost interest but Joey is still one of my favorite Drummers
It's sad that Lars depleted as a drummer. If you ever watch them behind the music in the studios Lars gets fed up himself in sounding the same and not performing as he had before. Those tracks had to be recorded somehow back in the day and the dude did it! Hope he can find the groove again. Thanks for the video. Great quality!
@@gardj456not as epic as Lars, Lars brings an energy unmatched by those guys. They may be better drummers but Lars has way more stage presence and charisma
@@Averseinsomniac lol, NO... Lars USED to. Now he's the Tony Danza of drumming 😂😂 all show no go. He has a huge roll in their success for sure, but drumming ain't one of them no mo. Not even close. He huffs and puffs like he's done something and didn't do shit. Skips most the double kicks in concert and acts like his sticks weigh 50 lbs each now. Sorry homie, still love him but he over acts and these guys crushed his tracks on the whim. Standing up leaning forward and walking around a kit hitting cymbals may be amusing, but doesn't replace talent and effort. He got old, it happens! Hard job playing all those live shows all these years as they do, so I get it! But tell me you're not a drummer without telling me you're not a drummer...
I was at this. It's one of my favourite memories. When Joey starts improvising and their faces start beaming. It was said that the rest of Slipknot said Joey created rock history that night when they greeted him after. It felt like it. RIP Joey.
Same. I was here for 2004 and 2005 Linkin park we’re awesome live that year too. Korn weren’t great tho lol. I was disappointed about static x. They were one of the main reasons I got my ticket
Joey got asked to play in one of favorite bands and at 37:09 being told you rock by James in front of millions. Man. I cant imagine how happy and humbled joey felt. He had a short life, but glad he was able to experience this and so many other cool things. May he rest in peace.
I didn't remember this live, Lombardo is a king of course, but it's amazing how Joy used completely different rhythms than Lars, but it still sounded really good!
Bless his lol Danish ❤....poor child probably had a nervous breakdown after listening to two years worth of Kirk's jokes. Rest in peace Joey and thank you for coming in clutch! 🥁🥁
Why? He didn't do a good job with "Battery", he flubbed almost every "BAT-TE-RY" and the intro and the part going into the bridge of Horsemen. There are plenty of drummers that could play "Dyers Eve". Tempesta, Benante, Hoglan...
@@TheAbsorbant who were there then and there? only guy who they didnt give a chance to who could have pulled it off who was there would have been dave mcclain.
I love the smile James makes at 25:16 after Joey does that fill just after 25:11 he’s so impressed and enjoying Joey’s playing. Must have been huge for Joey to get that type of approval from one of his heroes!
They are genuinely having fun here! Playing the same songs night after night, month after month, year after year, each song the same way, with the same people - you can end up disengaged with the music. Having some part of that formula radically altered suddenly forces you to fully engage with it again. This is why the "unplugged" thing became popular back in the 90's, and why this is such a great set. Is it "perfect?" No, and it shouldn't be. Live music should be fresh and exciting.
The Creeping Death performance is one of the best things ever in a metal ever recorded. You can literally see Jame's face just make this totally overjoyed look when Joey just aced his drum fill into the crash hits in perfect time at 25:11. Just one of the best things to see, so satisfying. At 25:15 he just shakes his head in disbelievement that it all sounds this good.
RIP Joey. What a day it was. Whilst we were waiting for Metallica to show we had a massive empty or filled with piss plastic bottle fight. I remember when Joey played we collectively gasped as he played songs we've heard a million times and brought them to another dimension. "Joey, you rock!" said James Hetfield
You can hear Lombardo sometimes doesn't know the next bit but quickly switches to the correct tempo/rhythm. I wish he was Metallicas drummer and Lars took a backseat from now on, he is a monster(and not in Slayer anymore anyway).
I feel now that he should replace Lars and Lars should just manage the band as he doesn't seem to have the passion to play drums he once had. He should also use his own kit as Lars has a terrible set up. Or even get Paul Bostaph or Vinnie Paul to replace Lars as I feel they would elevate the band again.
They probably played from where they would have been in the set if they had showed up on time and master was rather early on in the set at this point i think so they had to sacrifice it
I was there for this and it was the first time I saw Metallica. I didn’t fully realise how historic this gig was at the time. One thing to note is, if there was ever any proof that James is the rhythm section of the band, this is it. The reason Lars can do his fills and it doesn’t cause a problem is because James is the one who they’re all playing to. Considering they had zero rehearsal and changed the set list 4 times before they came out, the fact they didn’t miss a beat is outstanding
+josueDx300 Only thing that sounds better is the double bass part. Too many mistakes. Dave has the speed, Lars has the groove. Not the same without him, something is missing...
I was here in 2004, and it was a very hot weekend. Me and my friends were burnt to a crisp. When Metallica started to play Fade to black (38:25) it started to rain (just a drizzle) it was the only relief we’d had from the scorching heat. Paired with that opening riff makes it one of the most spiritual experience of my life
You can really feel a different energy flowing on that stage that night. Metallica were brutal and angry as when they were young. The audience was so fucking lucky that night to witness that event. I would pay more than the normal price of the ticket to see Metallica playing with a drummer like Dave. Lars, you can still be the manager and founder of Metallica, Please hire Dave!!!
I was at this concert. The crowd was ready to turn nasty when we thought metallica would cancel. Was awesome seeing this, a well decent compromise. Creeping death was killer!
for the the first time in their metallica careers, james, kirk and rob played with drummers who can actually keep up a steady tempo and rythm. it's clearly visible that they are loving their time together. must have felt like ''cheating on your spouse and really enjoying the mistress' sex but marriage comes first'' type of fling.
RIP Joey. Such an amazing drummer. When they played sad but true he played it knowing every nuance of how Lars played it live. For example speeding up the fill after the 2nd solo. The random Lars fills spot on. Would be indentical, but Joey with better footwork. He was so good. He just wanted to cater to the crew with what they are used to and he did well.
Joey with approximately 1 hour to rehearse. Amazing job, Metallica played at another level that night (a lot of energy). Drum work on Creeping Death was fantastic.
What impressed me most is how Joey played so tastefully on Nothing Else Matters. Chops are absolutely the most important part for Metallica but his swing and his groove and just everything else is perfect
I mean, Death Magnetic was great but the drumming wasn't top notch like older Metallica. I'd pick it though since Lars did better than he usually did. So I mean that was good drumming
+Andi Wiegand there's plenty that are lars' age that can still drum well like lombardo, and if hes not doing it right only cause he doesn't feel like it thats even worse
I didn't like it. I thought he overplayed the double kick. It was more about showing off his chops rather than doing what best services the song. Same with Bells.
Elias lo pierden porque creo yo que ellos esa parte lo tocan más lento respecto a la versión de estudio, y Joey respeta el tiempo original, no sé si me explico
Joey Jordison would be perfect for Metallica, his drumming compliments the songs so well and with his experience with playing guitar and bass and song writing, Joey would bring Metallica to a whole other level!
Imagine you're Slipknot's drummer, you have already played a full set with your band with all those crazy drum parts and you get asked to play basically another set with Metallica and deliver a brilliant performance with zero rehearsals. Joey was an absolute monster of a drummer.
He is missed. RIP
It is his favorite band - he loved Metallica one of his dreams to do that
Dave lombardo had to play a set with slayer before he played with Metallica..basically they both ran a marathon in 90 mins just to turn around and do it again. im a drummer and i know how grueling it can be one min your approaching the wall but you break threw and keep going! even further that you thought was possible! ive never had a more physically demanding job than being a hardcore metal punk drummer..

Dave drumming: here's the songs, the beat, perfection, quality drumming
Joey drumming: lars is going to buy a new kit after im done
Bless his lol Danish ❤....poor child probably had a nervous breakdown after listening to two years worth of Kirk's jokes. Rest in peace Joey and thank you for coming in clutch! 🥁🥁
Seek and destroy suena de ptm con el contrabajo que le. Mete joey simplemente hermoso 😢
My god, what a massive improvement on drums. The songs sound totally renewed, even with the lack-of-rehearsal glitches here and there.
And also they played with Lars drum set imagine if they would have played with their own sets and rehearsed the songs properly
FINgaming1000 Yes, you're right.
110% Agree
Lars would be relieved of his drumming duties and would be working in another department of Metallica such as management.
@@russkate88 SPOT ON! You took the thoughts out of my head (should be "words out of my mouth" but this is the Internet)!
Metallica with Dave Lombardo playing a song written by Dave Mustaine is like a thrash holy grail
Ah I never realised this that it was written by Mustaine. Thats brilliant.
HAHAHAHAHAHA THAT'S TOTAL BULLSHIT!! HE DIDN'T WRITE IT AT ALL! YOU DAVE FANBOYS ARE FKN RIDICULOUS. METALLICA OWNS megadeth
@@Sandesh98147 infact it's a BULLSHIT!! LMFAO he didn't! dave fanboys are a joke lol
@@Sandesh98147 that’s why mechanix by megadeath has the same instruments and drums, just at a different tempo.
OMG the double bass part in battery
It sounded beautiful!!!
Lars did it all the time in the 80's and early 90's.
Well, tiger drummers know of cymbals other than the China and actually have rides... who'd of thunk it
Live in Seattle 1989
@@lastname9268 before lars stopped practicing and caring about his drumming as much as he did during the 80s and early 90s
They could have jammed Dyers Eve with Dave, now that would have been awesome! If there's a drummer out there that can nail that song is Lombardo.
joey probably could have too... his double bass is insane
either one of them could have
Why? He didn't do a good job with "Battery", he flubbed almost every "BAT-TE-RY" and the intro and the part going into the bridge of Horsemen. There are plenty of drummers that could play "Dyers Eve". Tempesta, Benante, Hoglan...
@@TheAbsorbant who were there then and there? only guy who they didnt give a chance to who could have pulled it off who was there would have been dave mcclain.
@@TheAbsorbant To be fair, he probably didn't get much time to prepare.
That last part of Battery with the double pedal sounds SO MEAN with Lombardo!!! Kickass
+Frederik Thaysen Terribly awesome !!
It must of been a real treat for MetallicA to play with drummers.
That's implying that Lars isn't a drummer.
russkate88 That's the joke, genius.
Oh. Okay! I just thought he didn't realize.
It's not that Lars isn't good or bad but great to hear Metallica with a slightly different sound. It's one of these "what if" moments
i wish there was a better audio mix for this historic concert.
I love the smile James makes at 25:16 after Joey does that fill just after 25:11 he’s so impressed and enjoying Joey’s playing. Must have been huge for Joey to get that type of approval from one of his heroes!
They are genuinely having fun here! Playing the same songs night after night, month after month, year after year, each song the same way, with the same people - you can end up disengaged with the music. Having some part of that formula radically altered suddenly forces you to fully engage with it again. This is why the "unplugged" thing became popular back in the 90's, and why this is such a great set. Is it "perfect?" No, and it shouldn't be. Live music should be fresh and exciting.
HEs like, fuck imagine we had a good drummer...
36:52 Kirk give Joey the thumbs up after absolutely shredding seek and destroy fills me with joy.
R.I.P. Joey. . Jammin out with Cliff & Dime on Heavens main stage.
The Creeping Death performance is one of the best things ever in a metal ever recorded. You can literally see Jame's face just make this totally overjoyed look when Joey just aced his drum fill into the crash hits in perfect time at 25:11. Just one of the best things to see, so satisfying. At 25:15 he just shakes his head in disbelievement that it all sounds this good.
Joey fucking murdered Seek and Destroy. Even James looked over at him after the interlude/solo like "holy shit dude."
RIP Joey. What a day it was. Whilst we were waiting for Metallica to show we had a massive empty or filled with piss plastic bottle fight. I remember when Joey played we collectively gasped as he played songs we've heard a million times and brought them to another dimension. "Joey, you rock!" said James Hetfield
Those fucking piss bottles. It was like that scene in 300 where the arrows block out the sun
Yeah. I'm sure their was a bag of shit thrown at one point!
@@nealo814 when something brown was overhead you're hoping for mud and dirt and if anything yellow was above you're hoping for unfinished beer!
@@Apocalypsedude64 no fuckin way!! That's gnarly 🤠🤮
I was there, what a treat 😊❤
RIP Joey, you'll be missed!
You can hear Lombardo sometimes doesn't know the next bit but quickly switches to the correct tempo/rhythm. I wish he was Metallicas drummer and Lars took a backseat from now on, he is a monster(and not in Slayer anymore anyway).
I feel now that he should replace Lars and Lars should just manage the band as he doesn't seem to have the passion to play drums he once had. He should also use his own kit as Lars has a terrible set up. Or even get Paul Bostaph or Vinnie Paul to replace Lars as I feel they would elevate the band again.
Lars is still one of the main songwriters, so they still kinda need him
that would be cool since Slayer and Metallica are part of the big 4 :D
Lombardo doesn't know how to arrange James riffs into complete songs.
Or they should make it a double drum kit with lars only pounding the snare but that would sound terrible hearing he isn't tight
Wow. The only Metallica show ever where they didn't play Master Of Puppets was the one night they had someone who could actually play it.
They probably played from where they would have been in the set if they had showed up on time and master was rather early on in the set at this point i think so they had to sacrifice it
@@mrbevelaqua8649 It will be safe if Lars actually could play what he created, but he can't
@@mrbevelaqua8649 35 years playing wrong, so he can't
@@mrbevelaqua8649 yeah, and he can't play it as he wrote it or recorded it
Lars is one of the worst drummers out there and the rest of the band seem too have enjoyed this gig more than others just my opinion.
You can see how happy the band was to have Joey Jordison behind the kit, finally a good drummer!
I was there for this and it was the first time I saw Metallica. I didn’t fully realise how historic this gig was at the time. One thing to note is, if there was ever any proof that James is the rhythm section of the band, this is it. The reason Lars can do his fills and it doesn’t cause a problem is because James is the one who they’re all playing to. Considering they had zero rehearsal and changed the set list 4 times before they came out, the fact they didn’t miss a beat is outstanding
Sin duda el mejor concierto de Metallica donde se tocó la batería
i could listen to joey play metallica literally all day. i wish there was more
Seeing this after Joey just past really hurts. He was the best drummer Metallica ever had. RIP to the GOAT 🤘
men fucking battery sounds so fucking good with lombardo
+josueDx300 That's what I call a recharged battery! :D
+DaveC Ba dum tss
+josueDx300 Only thing that sounds better is the double bass part. Too many mistakes.
Dave has the speed, Lars has the groove. Not the same without him, something is missing...
+PaleBlueDot Oh and Joey has exaggerated a little...
+PaleBlueDot Lars fan spotted :P
33:18 I can see the smile behind the mask
R.I.P. Joey
Rest in piece Joey, such a sick drummer!
14:55 holy shit, now THAT is a bass solo
Dave Lombardo and Joey Jordison did a masterful job on the songs they were given. I especially like Joey’s use of double bass during Creeping Death.
I was here in 2004, and it was a very hot weekend. Me and my friends were burnt to a crisp. When Metallica started to play Fade to black (38:25) it started to rain (just a drizzle) it was the only relief we’d had from the scorching heat. Paired with that opening riff makes it one of the most spiritual experience of my life
It was part of the script
You can really feel a different energy flowing on that stage that night. Metallica were brutal and angry as when they were young. The audience was so fucking lucky that night to witness that event. I would pay more than the normal price of the ticket to see Metallica playing with a drummer like Dave. Lars, you can still be the manager and founder of Metallica, Please hire Dave!!!
re-watching today to celebrate what an amazing drummer Joey was. Rest In Power
I was at this concert. The crowd was ready to turn nasty when we thought metallica would cancel. Was awesome seeing this, a well decent compromise. Creeping death was killer!
This is by far my favorite Metallica live performance. EVER!! Oh what could have been.
Just came back watching this after a long time. Already missing Joey.
The most i love of Lombardo's druming that, the entire time he plays, HE NEVER HITS THE CHINA :D
This is amazing
for the the first time in their metallica careers, james, kirk and rob played with drummers who can actually keep up a steady tempo and rythm. it's clearly visible that they are loving their time together. must have felt like ''cheating on your spouse and really enjoying the mistress' sex but marriage comes first'' type of fling.
No the drummers overplayed it it suks with different drummers
Best analogy right there.
That's a very specific example 😅
"We feel better than ever..." Yes, James, You said it yourself!))
DRUMTALK Russia and sound better
Now Joey's gone this gig is even more special. Glad to of been there. R.I.P Joey Jordison
RIP Joey. Such an amazing drummer. When they played sad but true he played it knowing every nuance of how Lars played it live. For example speeding up the fill after the 2nd solo. The random Lars fills spot on. Would be indentical, but Joey with better footwork. He was so good. He just wanted to cater to the crew with what they are used to and he did well.
Lombardo was playing Mechanix instead of FH lol
XDXDXDXD
has the wrong band! XD
I have the same thoughts! Haha
I know its a joke but FH has double bass as well.
Oh yes! He knows where the real shit's at! Droogie for life!
Joey with approximately 1 hour to rehearse. Amazing job, Metallica played at another level that night (a lot of energy). Drum work on Creeping Death was fantastic.
No it doesn't it suks with different drummers
@@Miist3rDuce1in fairness it's been suboptimal since Jason left. joey killed this set
5:21 just LOOK at Kirks energy during that double bass part! He’s LOVING THAT BEHIND HIM!
What impressed me most is how Joey played so tastefully on Nothing Else Matters. Chops are absolutely the most important part for Metallica but his swing and his groove and just everything else is perfect
It’s one thing to have drummers fill in, it’s on another level to have them play on a kit that is not their own and still slay!
best live performance of lars since 1994!
33:07
Joey be lookin around like: lel that was fun
"Metallica is feeling better than ever" Yes, that means you should be calling up Dave Lombardo and doing a little switcharoo.
MEATALLICA kicks ass with dave lombardo! he is a freaking BEAST!!! they haven't sound like this since 86 when they opened for Ozzy.
Or even up until the Justice album
SlaytanicTallicaFan999 Death Magnetic...?
I mean, Death Magnetic was great but the drumming wasn't top notch like older Metallica. I'd pick it though since Lars did better than he usually did. So I mean that was good drumming
May he's too old for it? Or just can, but don't want or don't need to play even harder.
+Andi Wiegand there's plenty that are lars' age that can still drum well like lombardo, and if hes not doing it right only cause he doesn't feel like it thats even worse
Metallica is here and we feel better than ever. Because we have real drummers for once and double bass something we haven’t heard or had in years
Creeping Death is amazing with Joey
sensacional!
+Alex Oliveira en efecto pero no se su te diste cuenta que perdieron el ritmo después del DIE!
I didn't like it. I thought he overplayed the double kick. It was more about showing off his chops rather than doing what best services the song. Same with Bells.
Needs Jason's vocals
Elias lo pierden porque creo yo que ellos esa parte lo tocan más lento respecto a la versión de estudio, y Joey respeta el tiempo original, no sé si me explico
Metallica get so much heavier and meaner live when the drum parts is actually played as they were recorded haha. Ending of Battery is crazy.
Joey always in our hearts🙏🥁💔🤟
This is special.
Joey Jordison would be perfect for Metallica, his drumming compliments the songs so well and with his experience with playing guitar and bass and song writing, Joey would bring Metallica to a whole other level!
That insane speed and precision of Mr Dave is truly worth listening to it again
