Guitar player here... This is one of my favorite drummers hands down. Top 5 easily for me. Plays to the song, heavy hitter and a great showman on top of it all.
Jennifer Clark I know right? he's a pretty happy guy, I got a chance to say hi to him after a show and he actually told my sister and I a quick story about the necklace he was wearing ^_^
Lynn Nexus, Thanks for sharing that. He seems so happy when he is playing. Like a kid. He acts like a actual human to boot. He is one of the best drummers going in my opinion. I don't play but I love music and I love a real good strong beat. I hope they love doing this for years.
Man, watching this & seeing how much you enjoy playing made me want to be 14 again so I could go learn to play something, anything, & be in a rock-band. Awesome vid & very enjoyable to watch.
Dude. I’m a 56 year old that has been taking drum lesson for 4 years. I have a great instructor and have watched 100s of videos on mostly the songs he has been teaching me. I saw a tictoc on some woman head banging to this song and found this video. Truly one of the badass videos I’ve viewed as a beginner drummer. Inspirational for sure. I know the song is older but is def badass.
I have watched a lot of drum coves and they play as if they hate it but, do it just to put themselves on UA-cam! There is no fire,passion, soul to the covers! I can barely chew gum and walk let alone have all my limbs doing different things all at the same time lol, but I do find it fascinating watching original drummers playing their songs! Would love to see all the songs from you Berry Kerch! I love your style and fire!!
That was AWESOME!!! I am a wanna be drummer, and a huge fan of Shinedown. I went the the Shinedown concert in Kearney, Nebraska, and almost only listened to the drums. A song I would really like to see be played on the drums is my favorite, Bully. Thanks for this video, and Barry, YOU ARE MY DRUM HERO!!! :)
This is absolutely awesome to watch! On a completely random side note , I have always been fascinated by how your hair doesn't get caught when you play and head bang lol
You guys are my favorite band ever! I’ve been listening to you guys since I was like 4 or something love your sound! I would like to hear either State of My Head or Devil next!!
Barry is an absolute awesome drummer! He's one of my biggest inspirations and he's the reason I started teaching myself.. Also roll on 22nd October, Alter Bridge and Shinedown at Manchester Arena! Finally get to see Barry on action!
Barry knows how to whip them dreads like whoa! That was intense! That man is a whole different person when he's beating on the drums! Loved this, thank you! You're always so good to us fans!! I'd love to see Enemies too!
I just was at the show Dallas tx. With my three daughters what a great show. We had to wait until you were the last band playing. I have a new favorite band , guess who ? See ya at house of blues ! yeah ,,
Thanks for making this for us amateur (and professional ) drummers Barry. I have been drumming off and on since the age of 10. I am on a mission to be a decent drummer. I have nerve damage in my legs and fingers from metastatic cancer which makes it hard but I still keep at it. I love you guys in Shinedown. Hands down one of my top 5 bands!
I don't play drums so auxiliary, etc. didn't mean much, but I loved seeing you up close and personal playing Sound of Madness. Hell yeah, do Diamond Eyes next. You ROCK!
Don't know how to play the drums at all, but it was nice to see things from your angle. I feel like you don't always get to see enough of the drummer, so this was pretty awesome.
at the age of 51, Barry... I have fallen in love! God bless your beautiful wife and child! May God bless you both with a strength that bonds you together and nothing can tear it apart!! Your new friend, robin
im love this song, and you Barry are a fantastic durumer and why You stopped doing covers because it was a great way for new drummers and fans see and know more and if you make a new cover you should make the crow or diamond cut eyes att: your admirer David
ive been playing drums for 30 years and in a working cover band the whole while and a big fan of Barry since day 1. numerous festivals. living in Wausau Wisconsin. question....how many drum kits do you own. see you at Rock USA in Oshkosh in july we go VIP 6 years now. keep kickin ass
With all due respect indeed! I absolutely love Shinedown . ( first and foremost ) this message is for the band. Hope it's received. I saw your show in Gulfport Miss 3 weeks ago and it was a spiritual awakening of some sort for both myself and my husband. I just watched a video on UA-cam from the show in Madison Wisconsin Feb 2012. You had the big cannons blasting. I don't know if it was just the video or whatnot but you guys sounded much better without those blast. Check iit !
shinedown when i put on your new cd my dad tried to play drums to see if he could play it right and he said he couldnt catch the beat at the right time so then he says"are you trying to kill me with your rock music,but i was like whatever because shinedown's my favorite band ever
MOAR DREDDS!!!!!!!!!!! seriously though barry you have the VERY BEST stage presence of any drummer in the entire world huge inspiration to me you fucking rock dude another note would absolutely LOVE to see fly from the inside PLEASE!!!!!!!
i couldnt have watched a better video before going to work. IM SO FUCKIN PUMPED NOW!!! maybe being a home care health aid is too gentle of a job for me today hahaha
What a nice video just awesome how you play it, I would like to see the tutorial video off drums and guitar of Diamond Eyes. Hope you continue making great music.
I would love to see something like this for the song For My Sake. Whether it be a drum cover, guitar cover, vocals, anything really. That song is probably my favorite song off of Amaryllis.
I know this is for drummers and stuff but I think Eric should do a tutorial on bass.... I have been playing for a while and maybe Eric could do a couple lessons and give tips....just a thought...
You know what would be awesome? if you guys would post a video of how to play enemies on guitar! I'm trying to learn it but i just cant get it, its very hard and the guitarist (I cant think of his name) is extremely talented, in an extremely talented group... you guys probably wont get the time to make the video but if this happens i will be so happy! Shinedown rocks, keep goin!

Barry Kerch does not have to go this hard! But he does!!
He does it for us!!
>.> I'm totally fangirling >.< I know nothing about drums but he's adorable while he's playing...
LOL. I just fell in love with a drummer myself. He looks so happy playing..
Jennifer Clark I know right? he's a pretty happy guy, I got a chance to say hi to him after a show and he actually told my sister and I a quick story about the necklace he was wearing ^_^

Thank you Barry, I wish more drummers did this. I never learned how to read music. Plus I learn more by seeing
I love that you do this for your fans!! Much appreciated 🙌🏻
Man, watching this & seeing how much you enjoy playing made me want to be 14 again so I could go learn to play something, anything, & be in a rock-band. Awesome vid & very enjoyable to watch.
Robert Johns No reason why you couldn't still do each of these. Even if you had no arms! 😉 If it's in that soul, feed it, when able ♥
Love his style, he can bang!!...Favorite band!!!

This band is badass =)
i agree
How do you dislike this video?! It's 100% genuine to the band.
You made me want to be a drummer for a rock band when I grow up. You are my favorite drummer, person in band, and idol.
most bands dont take the time to make nice youtube videos like this for there fans. thank you guys for actually giving a shit about us
I LOVE the parf when Barry stops drumming and sings along!!
Love his kit,Love his style,Love his gear I just love it
Good to see you Barry! You have come along way since the Rutherford high school days. This is Patrick Smith drumline instructor 1989-1991
This is absolutely awesome to watch! On a completely random side note , I have always been fascinated by how your hair doesn't get caught when you play and head bang lol
You guys are my favorite band ever! I’ve been listening to you guys since I was like 4 or something love your sound! I would like to hear either State of My Head or Devil next!!
Love shinedown so muuch... Wish them to have more fans and grow like the do now, they are the best!!

If you guys cover DragonForce like you did Skynyrd I'd be a happy man.
Barry Kerch being awsome and listening to shinedown. can you think of anything better
I love this. Thank you. You make it look easy. :)
This looks like it would be almost exactly the albums drumming . I would love to hear bully or adrenaline next.
Living groove machine
This is cool. I going to a shinedown concert with my sister and dad on August 31. Virginia beach.

Your amazing drummer barry
Thanks ! God bless!
I would love to see something like this for the song For My Sake. Whether it be a drum cover, guitar cover, vocals, anything really. That song is probably my favorite song off of Amaryllis.
Awesome!
I am very interested in seeing "amaryllis" . that is one of my favorite songs off the album .. thanks berry .. see you at namm again !
PLLEEEEEAAAAASE do unity! that fill in after the guitar solo is sick! :D
I know this is for drummers and stuff but I think Eric should do a tutorial on bass.... I have been playing for a while and maybe Eric could do a couple lessons and give tips....just a thought...
2 years to late but on bass it really straight foward
Pls make more of this!!!!!!
Wow, you make it sound so easy....but it looks anything but easy...SHINEDOWN :o)
Awesome!!
You know what would be awesome? if you guys would post a video of how to play enemies on guitar! I'm trying to learn it but i just cant get it, its very hard and the guitarist (I cant think of his name) is extremely talented, in an extremely talented group... you guys probably wont get the time to make the video but if this happens i will be so happy! Shinedown rocks, keep goin!
BEAST! \m/
