The most technical, independence out the frame, speed, powerful and most knowledgeable drummer of his craft of our generation period! It's just my opinion guys but I think he's the best of the best period. I doubt there's anyone alive that can solo like him for as long as he does and with all the flash too could ever want or even dream of doing. There's know one like him on drums, he's that good😎✌
I can’t stop watching this video. You know I grew up a Neil Peart fan but I’m really getting a passion for watching Thomas Lang videos. I just discovered you last year. I’m definitely hooked on watching your videos Thomas. You are an amazing drummer. Stay healthy and keep making magic on those skins. Love ya man!! I can’t wait to play on my drums tomorrow. Would get on them now but my wife may get upset because it’s 2am now. Cheers!
Sounds like Thomas is playing Grebfruit at 6:19. Love Grebfruit!!! And Thomas, as usual is remarkable, one of the best drummers (in my opinion the best) ever.
Truly wonderful... a great player... as a guitarist I almost don't care how many drums one has, or what brand they and cymbals are... just finding a stable-minded, reliable guy who is a solid player, doesn't over-play is the MOST IMPORTANT thing any band could wish for... in the UK right now this requirement appears to be somewhat impossible to fulfil. Love and respect to those drummers that deliver the goods ✊️🙂 x
About the rata toms, they were actually brought by Roy Mayorga from Stone Sour and Previously Soulfly, who came from Tama and used octobans on his kit, so when he arrived at DW he asked them to make some for him and called them "Rata", which is Roy's nickname
This is my Thomas Lang hi hat, this is my Thomas Lang super stack, this is my small stack with a hit hay top and the Thomas Lang filter China bottem Love this guy
Carl Palmer, John Bonham, Danny Carey, Thomas Lang...Stainless Steel/(Paiste cymbal alloy for Carey), I'm detecting a pattern with these accomplished drummers. I think they're some of the finest sounding kits created.
The Ludwig * Bonham Anniversary Kit * has only 1 thing that is actually Ludwig, the * Name on the Badge *, every single drum on the 50 Stainless Steel kit's made were all handmade by * Ronn Dunnett *,........ Ludwig realized that one person in the Drum Craftsmanship world stuck out and stood above all other Drum Smith's and could build these incredible sounding drums better than even Ludwig themselves and that is * Ronn Dunnett * So to all of the lucky 50 people who own one of these kit's, thank Ronn when you sit behind that kit and say * Holy Shit * these drums sound * Incredible *.
Good evening Mr. Thomas, I want to congratulate you for being such a complete musician and ask if you plan to come to Buenos Aires to do a class for Argentine musicians. Thank you, Master.
Met Thomas Lang many years ago at a Drum clinic he held in South Africa. Super enthusiastic, humble and funny dude. Do yourself a favour and go and check him out if you have the chance. His poly-rhythm and independence teachings are on another level (Also available on his DVD's, but to see it in person is an experience in itself). Oh and forget what anyone has ever told you about "loud drummers". Thomas is the loudest. I have not heard any other drummer play louder than this man...and I have been to many Drum Clinics (Including Derrek Roddy, a power house blast beat / extreme metal drummer). Hands down. 100% Power and Precision. Wear ear plugs when you go watch him.
OLA Thomas Lang thank you very much for the video recording with Thiago Siqueira ... Thank you very much what you have done, one day we will have the opportunity to get to know each other. I admire your work and you play a hug. Diego, Brazil / PIracicaba SP
Love your drumming Thomas! Slow to the show but I don't know if this will be answered but the Rata toms what are the depths of the 2 that are used? thanks!!
You mentioned the AudixD6 for the gong drum but what mics are you using to record the rest of your kit? I recognized the one down-low in front by the wall was an AKG either a c414 or 214 but not sure what the rest are.
Thomas can you build a double bass drum set covered in sheet copper? I used to have a special order Slingerland Concorde 26" bass drums double bass set that I sold to friend for $500. ? Anywho would love to see some copper again! I had copper solor x film on the bass drum heads it was perfect! Thanks!
Fucking insane. Sound incredible. My biggest inspiration by far, and he's cool as fuck. Would love to have a drink with this gentleman some day. Thank you TL.
Thomas's accent, muscles and stainless. We should nick name the kit "TERMINATOR" !!! I'll be baack to play later!!
JimmyGunXD556 but for right now guys I've got to get to The
ChoppaAAAARRReeNNNNgarllnnnn
😂😂😂 How about the DRUMINATOR
Chris: Hey Thomas, how many Hi Hats do you want?
Thomas: Yes.
Thomas: This is my splash cymbal *sheds entire kit for 5 minutes*
This is my ride cymbal *sheds entire kit again for 10 minutes*
LMAO
Well, you have to listen to it in context ...
I stopped watching this video 20 minutes ago, but somehow those floor toms are still sustaining through my speakers.
:)
Hahahahaha.
I remember Eric Carr had those long bass drums ,thunder.
lol man
Life is good when you're Thomas Lang.
It's so cool how companies like DW provide thier artists the tools required for thier artistic expression.
I hear that's good for business.
World class drummer like Thomas Lang showing how much he loves his drum kit like a kid makes me feel happy!
Who else would love to see Thomas Lang on Bozzio's kit, that would be mind numbing.
Your so fun to watch! A fantastic drummer with a great personality.
(You need your own TV show!)
Thanks TL again for the inspiration!
🥁🥁🥁
You deserve to live your dream Thomas and I'm happy for what you give to this world and to all next generations. Thank you bro 🖤🤟

Thanks for always entertaining all of us Drumgeeks!!!! You're the best, Bless you Thomas!!!!
I like watching Thomas Lang drum tour videos. Interesting drumsets, killer playing, and funny to boot.
I can’t stop watching this video. You know I grew up a Neil Peart fan but I’m really getting a passion for watching Thomas Lang videos. I just discovered you last year. I’m definitely hooked on watching your videos Thomas. You are an amazing drummer. Stay healthy and keep making magic on those skins. Love ya man!! I can’t wait to play on my drums tomorrow.

Awesome new video’s you been doin, please keep them coming, could watch them all day, thanks Thomas 😎😎
I could watch Lang all day. Dude is incredible!
Thanks for doing these for us drum gear geeks and also thanks for the pedal view, that was awesome!
Sounds like Thomas is playing Grebfruit at 6:19. Love Grebfruit!!! And Thomas, as usual is remarkable, one of the best drummers (in my opinion the best) ever.
Who else wanted him to play Bozzio's kit?
Me :)
Dr Dr me
I would actually like to see Thomas play a simple straight ahead rock song like ,Shoot to Thrill from Ac/Dc.
You could tell he is was itching to jump on it. Golden rule as drummer. Never touch another guys kit without permission
The best part is when you play piano. Thanks for the tour Thomas. Incredible the facilities of Drum Channel.
"It's a bassdrum it's a gongdrum."... A bong drum!
Always Love Your Playing Sir!!! You are a HUGE Inspiration!!
You make it soooo easy!!
Wow Van Damme is a really good drummer
So great to hear this acoustically and not through all the processing. I wish more drummers did this.
Truly wonderful... a great player... as a guitarist I almost don't care how many drums one has, or what brand they and cymbals are... just finding a stable-minded, reliable guy who is a solid player, doesn't over-play is the MOST IMPORTANT thing any band could wish for... in the UK right now this requirement appears to be somewhat impossible to fulfil. Love and respect to those drummers that deliver the goods ✊️🙂 x
such a smooth drummer, no sweat was spilled.
You gotta love Thomas Lang. In this video he reminds me of the "Bruno" of the drumming world...
Thank you Thomas for sharing your gear with all of us.
'this is the jazz kit' lol
I think this Kit sounds so beautiful and unique.
That's huge kit! So much inspiration 🥁🤙
One Of The Baddest Drummer's on The Planet. Go Thomas Lang.
that snare sounds amazing!
Yea, my Ludwig kit. It's intervals, sympathetic vibrations between all the drums. So fun to play. It's alive.
Learning point: a mixed set is a "Frankenstein Kit". Haha
Great sound and some brilliant grooves in there :)
2:05 I love Tom's English accent.
Funny...I always thought you were saying "ROTO TOMS" lol
I was saying, those aren't roto toms. 😆
Love your drumming you're a beast 💪🥁 ❤️
Love this guy.awesome drummer and funny as hell.thomas your the man.gonna buy all your material.
Always enjoy your playing & the videos are cool..Thx for taking the time to share..
😎Beautiful Drums and Cool Beats🥁🥁🥁
Keep this kind of content coming please, it's awesome.
The Alex Van Halen look never goes out of style I guess.
Thomas Lang knows how to play the piano. That's it. That does it. This guy is a God, confirmed
Thomas Lang, one badass and talented drummer.
About the rata toms, they were actually brought by Roy Mayorga from Stone Sour and Previously Soulfly, who came from Tama and used octobans on his kit, so when he arrived at DW he asked them to make some for him and called them "Rata", which is Roy's nickname
I never thought that you can also play the piano...you're such an awesome dude..Thomas 😉🎶🎵🎵🎶🎵🎶
Cause the sun is so incredibly bright that he had to wear his sunglasses indoors...😂😁
I love his personality - GREAT!
Total Mr Rogers vibe at around 12:15. Love it!
Such a cool and unique setup
This is my Thomas Lang hi hat, this is my Thomas Lang super stack, this is my small stack with a hit hay top and the Thomas Lang filter China bottem
Love this guy
would be great to hear you with guitarist john McLaughlin,he always had a great power drummer !
Truly beautiful piano. Deep.

Thomas is funny af seems to have a great personality,I wanna be Chris when I grow up!!!
Good evening Mr. Thomas, I want to congratulate you for being such a complete musician and ask if you plan to come to Buenos Aires to do a class for Argentine musicians. Thank you, Master.
Beautifully tuned!
Lol what if he always refers to everything that he owns as “The Thomas Lang .......” but all jokes aside those toms sound pretty cool.
"He used to love the Sheraton towels" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thomas, we'll see you in The Expendables 3
Met Thomas Lang many years ago at a Drum clinic he held in South Africa. Super enthusiastic, humble and funny dude. Do yourself a favour and go and check him out if you have the chance.

Wear ear plugs when you go watch him.
Epic sound. The snare drum sounds killer, Grüße aus Berlin, lieber Thomas! ;-)
I'd love to see (and hear) Thomas playing that Terry Bozzio's kit
OLA Thomas Lang thank you very much for the video recording with Thiago Siqueira ... Thank you very much what you have done, one day we will have the opportunity to get to know each other. I admire your work and you play a hug. Diego, Brazil / PIracicaba SP
You wanna know what happened to the T-1000?
Here you go.
Damn awesome drums. 🤘
Incredible
Those damned double stroke kicks @ 9. Smooth beyond belief
He's a machine. A magician! Seems like a nice dude too.
Best drummer in the world !!!! No joke !!!
Phòng quay phim của Thomas đẹp quá.
Great guy and incredible drummer... and the drums are crazy good. Still, I secretly wished that he would be back to Sonor
Love your drumming Thomas! Slow to the show but I don't know if this will be answered but the Rata toms what are the depths of the 2 that are used? thanks!!
Yah Im sold on having a bass drum as a floor tom now.
I get the feeling Lang could play the snare with his pedals and the bass drum with his hands and you'd never notice the difference.
10:35 i know exactly where the simon phillips towel quote comes from. i wore those vhs tapes (yes, vhs tapes) out!!
Yeah! Me too! Love it!
Damn, fine sounding kit. Damn
omg~~~~ nice sound!
i have DW Stainless Snare 14x6.5!!
sound very very cool~~
i'm korea drummer :)
would to hear the drum solo from In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida on the kit
You mentioned the AudixD6 for the gong drum but what mics are you using to record the rest of your kit? I recognized the one down-low in front by the wall was an AKG either a c414 or 214 but not sure what the rest are.
But speaking of roto toms, he should put a few of those on this kit, I think they would fit it well aesthetically both visually and sound-wise.
Incredible.
Love this video!
I am usually an oil finish guy....but holy moly. That is beautiful.
I'm assuming you're talking about the hair here?
\m/ Extreeemely cool sound!!
That’s the funniest video you’ve ever posted. 😂
Some guy commented that Thomas scrapes by. He got out of a 200,00 dollar Porsche. Thomas can play with anyone in the world.
Would’ve loved to see Thomas join Dream Theatre to see how he’d write with them. Easy and cheap bass drum muffling is a mop head!
I love that gong drum!
Thomas can you build a double bass drum set covered in sheet copper? I used to have a special order Slingerland Concorde 26" bass drums double bass set that I sold to friend for $500. ? Anywho would love to see some copper again! I had copper solor x film on the bass drum heads it was perfect! Thanks!
Thanks alot Thomas I'm pouring gas on another drum set lol Dudes an absolute beast
Amazing drumkit !!! i need a snare like that !!!!
is a carl palmer thing...., sounds amazing, what kind of shells, like an snare or like a dunnet.....
I like this set-up. It's sleek.
Like surgical tools! Stainless and they cut through easily!
He's living the dream.
Vinnie and Thomas are the best in the world. Thomas has a more pop/rock feel.
Fucking insane. Sound incredible. My biggest inspiration by far, and he's cool as fuck. Would love to have a drink with this gentleman some day. Thank you TL.
Oh that kit sounds good
I have that 9000 rack.. would to love to see in depth your rack set up. I'm sure that would boost the 9000 rack series sales.
Thanks thomas.great vid.enoyed it.keep on rokn!
Kool guy..Aloha Thomas🤙Cheers🍷.
