A big part of this is just a Gambling PSA. Lolol. Also, I realize that I've been sucked into the Tom Williams pipeline. TDWP to Counterparts to Dying Wish to Foreign Hands is real. Also, I thrive off the friendships between all you bands. You guys entertain me as much as TV shows with constant social media and real life (touring together) content.
Love that you mentioned Drew and him on stage. Saw you guys when y’all opened for Underoath and you guys got me so amped! Your energy was / is non stop! Cannot wait to see you again!!
Loved this episode. Can feel the passion for this in Toms words. Been following stray for a long time and I’m glad it’s paying off for the boys. Loved the addition of Craig. I was sad when the last drummer left but Craig makes me forget that dude was even in the band.
I saw you guys on that UK your in Manchester, and honestly was the best gig I’ve ever been too. I’ve been to shit tons of gigs, saw all the greats, but Stray From The Path have something special. Forever be one of my favourite bands since that night
Catching up with this after seeing Stray in Manchester last night. What a joy to listen to you both chat, and what you guys say about Drew is so true - he is an UNREAL stage presence and got us all hyped to hell last night. (You were very good too Craig).
Its awesome, i went to a silverstein concert and you guys opened for them! Ive been subbed to your channel for awhile now not knowing your band. You guys came out and im thinking to myself, god he looks familiar.. is that craig reynods?! Haha then i googled your band and was super stoked to see you jam live. Thanks for the killer show, crazy how much the lead singer sounds like zach de la roche!
You guys ARE doing stuff no one else can touch. Facts. Your live performances back up the wonderful discography. Stoked to see you in Camden next month. Would love to hear: Ladder Work (what a f*cking amazing album closer), Snap, Negative and Violent & The House Always Wins ❤❤❤ PS: Off with their f*ucking heads!!!
Patiently waiting for the 2 and 1/2 long episode with II from sleep token. Craig spends the entire time asking questions, shooting the shit, having full blown conversations, while II just stares the entire time only for Vessel to come out of nowhere at the end and give a little heart hand to the camera.
I don't know what it is exactly, but this episode feels really different. Maybe it's how surprisingly relaxed and softspoken Tom is. Or maybe it's Craig just having a chat with a friend. No persona, no fanboying... both of which is fine, 0 hate. It's just that this one has avery pleasant vibe. I listen to only a few podcasts in total and this episode made me add Downbeat to that list (of ~3). Not just for when a drummer I like is on. Keep on doing what you're doing. It's great!
Yeah when he, Tom, started going about how nothing in the band would have happened that have happened would come to fruition had small changes in their lives not happened. That small moment made me tear up a bit because it really does out into perspective many things that I personally relate to, I'm also just a crybaby. Regardless, this talk was such a great one on one,Ike a conversation you overheard like the after party convos when no one's around - genuine is the word.
So random aside, I have to post my kids with emojis because they’re foster kids and I want them to feel like they are apart of my family but due to safety and legal reasons we can’t show faces. Don’t hate on us emoji parents all the time! Love the show.
no memento? smh... would love to have tom back though. the short bit on management at the end was super interesting and id love to hear more of his perspective
Stem Cells are base cells that act as a precursor to all cell types. They can turn into whatever cell they need, so they can be used to heal and grow areas with damaged cells. Your buddy got stem cells that turned into "shoulder" cells
Just overall they have smaller washers & dryers and they're not as strong. Which in a way is better for the environment, many people hang dry clothes ECT, that's been my experience
Listen, I think you should do the 80/20 drummer show. He has awesome guest but they need someone with teeth. I believe you have those choppers. Conversely us autistic jazz drum nerds don’t know about you or the DB. Think about it, It’s a wild convergence that could literally rip a hole in the drum space time continuum. His shout out to your channel is how I discovered you in the first place 2 years ago, so there is a precedent. Just saying.
I know this isn't the place to start arguing over gun control and gun violence. But the discussion about literally considering leaving the country because of gun violence tells us how insane our media is here (in the US) with how sensationalism is brainwashing everyone. In the last several decades, the number of people who have been killed by being struck by lightning is almost DOUBLE the number of people who have died in school shootings. It's extraordinarily rare. Obviously, it's not as rare as anyone would like it to be, but making life-changing decisions based on this exceptionally uncommon thing just seems crazy to me. On average, less than 15 people have died per year in school shootings since 1970. But in 2021 alone, there were over 40,000 deaths due to car crashes in the U.S. Yet I have never once heard anyone say they're considering moving out of the U.S. to a country that has fewer car deaths on average - despite that reasoning making a whole lot more sense if safety is a major factor.
In South Africa you need a gun license, less school shootings. Still more crime? The world's messed up everywhere . Here tho we have government hospitals and I know people that have been in for surgeries and had an option to donate, they still survived as well as 1000s of child births daily all done by government hospitals. If you can afford medical aid there's that to. Heck here if you wealthy you can get private security. I think you still need to pay for an ambulance tho or catch a taxi. I'm fortunate I haven't needed one
Why he got a pillow on his lap? At least it's not a blankie, but it's pretty damn close. Men DO NOT hold pillows! I do not even use a pillow in bed, my head lays on a rock. Woosie!

Tom is the best. Seeing you guys banter back and forth again makes me smile ear to ear. I vote for a monthly TW episode!
Tom sounds exactly like the sort of guy I’d want in my corner. What an awesome dude.
the couch has gotten deeper and deeper on each of the subsequent Nashville episodes.
😂😂😂

Such a great interview - happy to hear about Stray’s success!

🖤⚡️🖤 I love my GOAT Downbeat hoodie!
Loved this one, please do a follow up on tour. This is really just ‘two friends talking’. Love that
Listening to you both was such a treat, hope you'll invite Tom back soon :)
this might be my favorite. Tom is legit
Great conversation, looking forward to the tour with Silverstein.
Tom is so cool, definetly want him back soon
This is why I pay £1 per month! 🙋🏼♂️
respect the NYR cap and bottle
Fucking awesome. We'd definitely love to see more with Tom sometime. Legendary shit homies

I didn't know this podcast or your band a couple of weeks ago; I now love both!
glad to have you
This was such a great interview. Thank you!
I feel like Tom should move to Hamilton. Would be dope. Great episode guys!

Love hearing this behind the scenes stuff. You guys deserve it all!!
Sick podcast as always man! Looks immaculate!!!
Always a good day when new The Downbeat drops!
This is definitely one of my favorite episodes!
Great underplayed episode
Episode 2 on management and tips for up and coming bands please 🙏🤘
Yes been waiting for this one😊

Keep on doing what you're doing. It's great!
You’ll be pleased to know of the 8 episodes left this year all but one are just chatting with a best friend
I'll be there to listen!

Love y'all💜
I miss Tom streams 😢
Loved The 1st Tom Pod, I cant wait to watch this 💪
Love the pod brother, keep it comin

Wife and I are adopting the Cool Drink game 100%
Shuffling cards is fun. Check out Tally Ho’s signature series 👍
Good to see you, Greg! (I hope, somebody sees what I did here...)
I wish they had show in Poland
I miss the dream festival ! Don't know why everyone didn't get it.
Awesome episode eyeballs are fucking crazy I got to see cornea harvesting while in nursing school and it was so interesting and nauseating.
30:30 When are we getting Tommy's Game
Ladder work live when?
Next tour

Wait, why do dryers suck in the UK? I’m from the states and I’ve never heard the UK dryers thing
Just overall they have smaller washers & dryers and they're not as strong. Which in a way is better for the environment, many people hang dry clothes ECT, that's been my experience
I thought this was a drum podcast, why didn't you interview Stray's drummer?
DREW PESCI 😂😂😂
Patreons have it earlier ❤
Based.
Drink anytime Tom says "Like"
Listen, I think you should do the 80/20 drummer show. He has awesome guest but they need someone with teeth.
I believe you have those choppers.

Right hand drive is superior (I'm American)
I was really hoping that when asked "what's the 5% you don't like" Tom responded with "the drums". Opportunity missed 💔
lets sell out landon

Love how Tom can’t handle Craig’s uncompromising sexual magnetism and so has to use a cushion to hide his hard on.
PGE or PGP?
Hey Craig, why did you block me on Instagram? I am a regular viewer man. I enjoy your content. I didn't do shit 😂
you probably liked someone’s comment talking shit yesterday 😂
What Brits don't like about America? Everyone saying 'like' after every 'like' two 'like' words! 😆
Why he got a pillow on his lap? At least it's not a blankie, but it's pretty damn close. Men DO NOT hold pillows! I do not even use a pillow in bed, my head lays on a rock. Woosie!
