Love this guy. I’m so glad he’s back in the band.
Have a listen to the full interview on my podcast, you can stream it on apple, Spotify, iHeart! 🤟🏻📻
Deen is just amazing, I didn't know he sang until he sang still they ride😮 holy shit that guy has a set of pipes and he does beat the ass off those drums😂
His voice was almost as good as Steve's was on certain songs
dude, his band Revolution Saints is awesome… especially his vocals and hooks… Eagle’s Flight is my favorite song right now.
I appreciate Deen's talent and passion for drumming ... AND YET ...DAMN! I may love his voice even more! (mother, father?! I mean...!)
Keep on rockin Deen one day at a time 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽team deen
Love Deen little hyper at times but I still love him. He’s a great drummer, great human being and his voice is phenomenal.💯👈🏻❤️🙏

Greg Bisonette is also super hyper maybe a drummers thing?
@@peterpeters4553 another phenomenal Drummer , Greg
@@peterpeters4553not all drummers. Drumming is an extension of your personality. You won’t find a hyper guy like Gregg or Deen or Stewart Copeland playing laid back like Bonham. And you won’t find that a guy who plays like Bonham or Kretz or Abe Laboriel Jr who is a super energetic wired guy.
You need to research his history with his girlfriend or wife. Domestic violence is real. I don’t think that is called a good human. Everyone has a past. However, physical abuse is not tolerated in my world past or present. 😮
One of the best drummers alive. And an incredible vocalist as well!
Deen's vocals are a national treasure. WTF are you smoking Deen?!? Protect those golden pipes.
Love you Deen best drummer for Journey. Missed you so much but so glad you overcame your issues and are back with the band. I haven’t followed very much since Steve left, but dude you are the closest second to Steve I’ve ever heard. I am starting to listen to some journey again since you have come back to the band. Sounds like issues have been overcome in the bands. I like Arnel, but he’s not Steve or you. Drumming and singing at the same time, dude that’s awesome, so are you such passion and energy, perfectionist for your crafts. Glad the wives got involved with Neal and Johnathon. ( behind evert man is a great woman). Love your band Revolution Saints as well……I noticed your smoking cigarettes, please quit it will take your life away, can’t you imagine not being able to play the drums, be in the band, go on tours????? Take it from someone who lives on full oxygen 24/7 at highest setting and still short of breath if I walk, can’t carry anything heavy at all, getting to the bathroom or kitchen to get a Dr Pepper exhausts me. All my food is microwaved because I can’t cook anymore. COPD so severe I can’t have in person contact with people so I’m homebound only to go to my dr.appts. My lungs are so severely damaged my pulmonologist treats me with meds at home first to see if I can recover from respiratory failure or flare ups because it’s more dangerous to be exposed to all the germs in the hospital. Think about your family having to watch you basically slowly suffocate yourself, gasping for air like a fish out of water. I will turn 65 in March I pray everyday for the blessing of waking to a new day and every precious breath I breathe. Love you man. I hope this post helps others to consider not smoking anything, the air we breathe is bad enough!!!! God bless you and yours. Keep on rockin. Congratulations to the band on 50 anniversary and tour. Journey Rocks. Later……………..
Deed is da man!! Thanks for watching Connie 🤟🏻 the full interview is on my podcast.
incredibly happy for him getting his life together, and it seems his life went back to being a good life again. on his own, he is an incredible singer.
11:32 Glad to hear Neal and Jon have resolved their internal issues. Dean's right, some bands don't realize what they have until they breakup and lose it all
I totally agree. Life’s too short! Have a listen to the full interview on my podcast, you can stream it on apple, Spotify, iHeart! 🤟🏻📻
His video "High Performance Drumming" changed my 19 year old life!!! All the hand/foot stuff I got from him. I'd heard it from Greg Bisonette first, but couldnt figure what the heck was happening. Deen showed me and it was a revelation! Not only that but his whole power rock drumming thing was so inspiring.
Regarding Edrums/triggering it live, if he's getting latency, his techs are doing it wrong. Talk to Brian Hitt from REO Speedwagon, he'll give you some serious pointers on how it's done.
Thanks for checking it out man! Have a listen to the full interview on my podcast, you can stream it on apple, Spotify, iHeart! 🤟🏻📻
Take the triggers off his drum kit. The 2001 & 2009 Journey concerts were fabulous with Deen's kit.
Absolutely Deen is Incredible and don’t take the drums down Oh I remember hearing in 1998 variations over tour and everyone after and I Absolutely am a Huge Steve Smith Fan as well and when he came back and Filled in for Deen Oh I go back to the Evolution Tour but I went to see Steve back in Journey several times and the Wow Unbelievable big sound of his Drums from back when I remember were toned down and I maybe every other day and go back to to all live recordings! Love Deen He is Awesome! Oh I am so Happy everyone happy and Absolutely Neal Schon’s Solos and when he throws in some HSAS Valley of The Kings Wow!
Dean is a fucking smoker and can sing like that ! Amazing brotha 🤣🤘🏽🍻
Great drummer and amazing singer
Kiss made Peter Criss use the triggers too during the 90s reunion but because they said Peter wasn't loud enough 😂 Love Deen's energy in this.
And Neal's wife definitely has the gift of gab. She gabbed her way right past White House security to hang with Obama 😂😂😂😂. Anyone else remember that? 😂😂
all I know is... my buddy a bass player asked me if I ever heard Dean sing? Who? Dean. No ....... OMG. That vibrato and patience while banging! He is better than the current lead , well at least years ago.
Loved this guy live.... amazing and the vocals insane too......but man he seems so hyper it must be draining to be around the guy
Elite musicians/artists have egos. Glad Journey mates worked on it. Life's short, enjoy the ride. Wealth is just numbers when you accumulate that much.
10:55pm This man is an awesome talent on drums and vocals…..but so many comments here about how he talks in an interview?? Come on, folks.
Love how you describe it as “cannon ball snare” Jeremy! That’s exactly what it sounds like and I love that sound. Picked up the album! Cheers - R
Hahaha that’s exactly what it is tho!!
High Spirited Lovely Chap. Who couldn't Love this Guy??
I have been a Journey fan since 1981. Two words on why I will never buy another Journey concert ticket: Paula White. Deen Castronovo said that she is co-managing the band and is a "business genius". I thought she was a "pastor". She is just another grifter using religion to con people out of their money. They do not need my money anymore; I am out.
You must be a biden supporter.
I truly hope he’s clean. I’m getting bad vibes from this interview. Dean’s an amazing talent and a good guy.
That's what I was thinking. After 30 seconds I was like (coke much?).
Yea...hmmmm
Hes buzzin like a chainsaw in a pine thicket
@@douglayman1843
Yea I've never seen anything like that...
Still tweaking
As a FOH guy…cymbals a snares we’re my enemie…..
Ever since Roland bought dw, a lot of things have changed with the product. Not good changes either.
This guy loses pounds just having a conversation!
I lost 5lbs during this 🤟🏻😂
Any chance of Ross coming back?
I'd say dean needs to lay off the coffee, or whatever caffeine drink he's investing, or I'd say he's Hyper Disorder 😂
NO TRIGGERS DW DRUMS ARE MADE TO BE TUNED RIGHT. DEEN CALL ME BIFF
40 years of being friends co workers . Do you remember the wild dogs. When I gave you some gear ? Miss you
I have always been behind you. Great job my brother
So Deen just admit to Journey using backing tracks ohh noo Deen.
Ya it’s been well documented over the years haha fills up the sound
Most bands use backing tracks especially for backing vocals, guitars and keyboard parts
@@JeremyWhiteShowSo is it correct to assume that it’s just backing vocals that are added, or would there be any lead vocals and/or other added instruments? I’m a bit of a musician as well and going to the show in Toronto in August with my son. Just curious as to what I’ll be hearing.
Arnels voice is almost gone,just a matter of time.
The triggers suck. I just saw journey in Madison the other day. I was in the floor like 30 rows back. Toto’s mix was way better. For Journey, there was no drums!!! The kick was this weird rumble. There was no beat to the music. Just this broad midrange. Interesting how he said how Arnel is a light singer because his voice was crazy compressed . Just an ugly artifact when he sang.
Sound man/woman new to the show?
Yeah, they just don’t sound good anymore.
Does Deen have a retainer in his mouth ? He’s got a bad lisp and is slurry his speech.
He had to have dental work done. That lisp is new.
I already have my tickets for the Alamodome in San Antonio in Aug. Looking forward to it for sure.
Gonna be an awesome show! Have a listen to the full interview on my podcast, you can stream it on apple, Spotify, iHeart! 🤟🏻📻
It really was obvious when I saw them last the didn’t get along they stayed on opposite sides of the state. Really sucked for those who love watching musicians.
❤️🥰🥰🫶🏼
Thanks Carole! Have a listen to the full interview on my podcast, you can stream it on apple, Spotify, iHeart! 🤟🏻📻
He’s my fave of all time! He’s everything to me! Great guy! Huge heart ❤️ the most underrated musician!
As a Journey fan, I would rather hear you guys playing your instruments. Kill the tracks and triggers. Don't be the Eagles.
It's weird how all of those meth mouths sound the same
Two keyboard players and still using tracks
Click tracks 🙄
Still tweaking!
He’s acting all spun up again. Not hating just calls em as I sees em. Hair all over the place,repeating himself and other tweakerish behavior.
How did he end up in ozzy osbourne
