Being positive is number 1 for me. My guitarist often lacks confidence and can easily get caught up in the odd mistake. He is always thanking me for being positive and seeing the good in even the worst situations. If something gets stolen, I pray for the person that stole it. I pray that their life improves to a point where they don’t feel it necessary to steal. That change in mindset is incredibly powerful and will permeate others.
That’s awesome! You sound like a great band mate!
Could you please do a breakdown of your gear on stage? (Eg. Drum setup, in ear system)
It's so awesome to have seen ye perform at iconic gigs like Red Rocks! This is indeed such informative and prominent advice. Cheers!
I'm honored to have had an experience like that! So glad you dug the video!
@@DrumBeatsOnline Ahh my pleasure my friend. Really Great work indeed!
Great video Gabe, as usual. I admire how hard working you are!
I nailed the most tips! Stay positive is sooo important. And moving is so important. Better to be (in your eyes) overdoing it, than holding back. Thanks for the Gyroscope thingy. I didn't knew that.
This is the most awesome and uplifting thing I've ever seen. My excitement rating just tripled. I cant wait to start. Thank you so much bro.
Also rx bars are delicious.
Thanks so much for the kind words!
I agree! I'm all about that chocolate sea salt life.
Y'all were my favorite concert this year! By far the most fun in a long time.
That's awesome, thanks for coming out!
Just played a gig this past weekend and the drummer in the headling band had one of those Spinners. He and his guitar player as a matter fact. He let me try it out and I have to say it's a great warmup tool and I told him I remembered seeing one in your video. Thanks for sharing, just ordered one on Amazon 💯💯
Amazing advice as I want to be a touring drummer will defo take this advice
We would love to see a video where you talk about your workout routine!
Dude keep up the amazing work!!! I went and saw you on the Trauma tour and it was the hands down BEST show I've EVER been to!!!! Keep it up!
That's so awesome! I'm so happy to hear that you had a good time!
Great video
I'm still waiting for video "how to make your drums sound good" ;P It's one of the things you suggest in your other video with tips, so let's talk about it more.
Wish ya all the best
Sooooo no hookers and blow?? Man, Motley Crue are the reason we can't have nice things! LOL. I really liked your tour perspective. I'm a drummer in a local band and I am always fascinated with the logistics of big performances and of touring. Thanks for the view man :)
Ha no way! So glad you liked the video!
cool man, very useful tips! could u make a video about how to run backing tracks, about monitoring, what apps do u use, THANK U
Thank you for the tips🤟
My pleasure, Nils!
Thanks for the vid!!!
My pleasure!
Some seriously helpful tips here!! Thanks for this video! My band plays a lot of "local support" gigs for a bunch of touring bands, and I think a lot of those bands would benefit from this video. "adding light and positivity" ..... heck yes!! So important! The stage presence goes for everyone as well. Its a show!! Your band is there to provide entertainment!! Loved this video bro, so good!! Killin' in, brother!!!
So glad that you liked the video Steve!
This is great life advice in general
❤️❤️
This video really helped me!
I'm so happy to hear that!
I often find my wrists and forearms kill me halfway through the set, so thanks for the tip to build up some endurance! Got my first gig this Friday on my birthday! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🔥🔥
You’re very welcome. Hope you kill it at the gig this Friday!
One thing I found useful when preparing for a show is practicing the full set twice in a row. Ive found that when the adrenaline and nervousness kicks in, you'll burn more energy. So being able to run the full set twice while practicing will guarantee you that you won't burn out duting the show
That’s a great thought!
Good job dude ✨👏🏼
❤️🤘🏽
Such a great video, Gabriel.
Gracias Dominic
Drum Beats Online you’re welcome
Gabe is very good Drummer , and besides drummer he gives lessons wow it's awesome... Totally cool
Awesome to see you behind the drums!
🥁❤️💪
Thanks for this video ! For sure the most important tip is to stay positive, all the rest will come from here !
Hey man. Awesome stuff for sure. Why do you guys not have a bass player?
Helpful stuff for even a non-touring church drummer such as myself!
Heck yes!
Oh, btw, question: What do you control with your iPad on your right?
Roeland Heek probably a Yamaha EAD10
After I broke my wrist I was having a difficult time with fluidity of motion. My arm was moving a lot to compensate for my fairly stiff wrist movements. I used one of those gyroscope/excercise balls to help strengthen and improve my wrist! They really are great tools.
Wow that’s awesome!
Staying positive was my favorite, and I so need to get to work on that one. 😆
It can be easier said than done that's for sure!
I'm leaving for a 2 week fill in tour on Friday. This video really helped me out.
Heck yes Jason! You've got this! I'm so glad to hear this video could help you out.
Even though I habe no touring expierience, all of your tips make sense. But many of these habits come automatically with your personallity and your mindset. These things cannot just be taught. It's a way of living, and you got everything you need for that what you do. Therefore for most of us you're a hero.
🙏🏽
Hi Gabe can you please do another video on your upgrades? I would love to see your studio when your done with the upgrades!!
Definitely! They’ll be coming as I continue to make them.
Thanks Gabe.! I can't wait!
Great vid Gabe! Being positive is number 1 for me. I've never toured but I've played out enough times to see things beyond my control happen at a show: The sound guy has an attitude that night, Being rushed to play because the venue waited too long to start the show, Equipment problems during the set, I've had a rough day and now I have to go play a show, The touring band we're opening for had a bad show the night before and have decided to be complete a**holes to the other bands (my band) tonight and my personal favorite, being told you will paid only to hear an excuse at the end of the night why they can't pay you. A signed contract should prevent the last one from happening. Reminds me of the AC/DC song IT'S A LONG WAY TO THE TOP ( IF YOU WANNA ROCK ' N ' ROLL) lol !
I can totally relate to all of the things you listed out above! Staying positive throughout all of these things is easier said than done because there are so many different things that can go wrong like you said. But my life becomes much less stressful when I'm able to stay positive through it all!
I'll admit there has been times where I let it get the better of me and it did effect my playing in a negative way. Experience is a good teacher for working on this discipline.
Now all I need are tips on how to get the gig, would be greatly appreciated🤘🤘🤘🤘
Maybe ill make a video on that in the future!
Best video ever.
You are too kind!
Great video
Thank you!
And great show on Aug 9
See yall tomorrow Gabe yall are probably in the woodlands tx today
Im not even in a band or tour, but this helped
That's awesome!
Great!
Where do you buy those tank tops haha?
Just cut the sleeves off of a T-Shirt!
PLEASE UPLOAD THAT HURICAN DRUM CAM OR ANY LIVE CAM!!
Haha working on it!
How do you start getting into touring and playing more when your young?
Good idea for another video!
What’s your band name?
What's your band name??
🙌
Thanks for the tips
(1) I think getting rest after sound check is Important if your band is the headlining at least an 1hr since we drummers are the hardest working people in the band especially Metalcore, Hardcore & Thrash metal drummers :)
(2) Eating healthy DON'T eat heavy meals before the gig eat your heavy meals after eating heavy meals before a show make you sluggish.
(3) Wear comfortable clothing like sport apparel especially for metal type drumming.
I don't know how metal drummers can play in jeans; I sweat to much to wear jeans the
material is heavy;I couldn't do it but more power to you drummers who play in jeans :)
Definitely! Those are great thoughts.
Whats your drumset?
Hope you can come to China
Song at the end?
