I can watch/listen to Gavin talk about anything, even when 80% of what he speaks about is beyond my comprehension. I’ve had the honor of watching him live for both Porcupine Tree and Pineapple Thief and it was absolutely glorious. Legend and future all time great! I’ll listen joyfully to anything he does. Thank you for everything sir!
27:05 I don't think that's what the guy was asking ahahahaha was Gavin trolling him? Maybe he just didn't understand the question? I found it quite funny either way
Thank you for taking the time answer my question! Absolutely love your work, you are one of my all time favorites and I consider you one of the greats!
What a sweet intellectual and easy to learn from man. I saw KC in 2018 and all 3 drummers were incredible and perfect. Thank you Gavin for your humility.
I'm a guitarist but will watch anything to do with Gavin. The only drummer I've been fascinated with (obviously appreciate the likes of Bonham, Palmer, Barriemore Barlow etc)
Thanks Gavin for answering my question! Really helps a lot. And thank you Sonor for providing this opportunity to ask questions! Looking forward for more of these!
11:00 I’m just picturing if someone from 2010 could have seen this video and hear him casually mention “the virus”. What a frightening dystopia they must think we’re living in.
Yes if you're thinking about it please workout a recording/ mixing for live or studio work! Im interested in your theories, experiences, and preferences when it comes to these areas of audio engineering for percussion!
Thank you very much to Gavin & Sonor for taking the time to answer our questions and for sharing a little bit about yourself. I sincerely believe that these discussions are helping to bring us closer to what we really are behind our drums.
Time for a video cover of bleed :) lol. Great interview, my all time favourite drummer along with simon Phillip's. Thanks for making this. Very interesting stuff!!
Dear Gavin, thank you very much for this excellent Q&A!! Besides obviously being an amazing, well-rounded world-class drummer, you're doing a fantastic job answering questions and explaining things in a very eloquent manner! Your wealth of life and drumming experience inspires me a lot! I hope you're fine! Cheers from a drummer in Switzerland
Amazing. Thank you Gavin, and Sonor, for putting this together. Would love a run-through of your mixing workflow... I don’t even play acoustic drums (yet)! But I did study sound engineering so would be super interested in your approach to mic’ing and mixing. Thanks again for the huge dose of inspiration and thoughtful answers 🙏
Thanks Sonor and of course Thanks again Gavin for taking the time ⌚ to send us a video, it's like seeing God answering questions 😉 we love your playing, stay safe and in touch 👍
thanks for that Gavin. I love your melodic way of thinking and to always be with the music. Feel strengthened in my non conventional way of thinking about drums :)
20:00 Gavin: "You're best of starting near the edge of the snare where the..." Me in my mind: "the bounce is greater" Gavin: "timpanic pressure" Gotta love Gavin.😂
GusBan i’m pretty sure he uses coated ambassadors as top heads, and clear ambassadors as bottom heads, but probably he alternated between emperor and ambassador
@@bruno-nw9qm I'd happily be proven wrong, but it's well documented in many other places that he USUALLY (not always of course) uses vintage coated emps
It's coated Emperors on top and clear Ambassadors on the bottom for rack toms. On the top of the floor tom is a vintage coated emperor. And again, clear ambassadors on the bottom, I assume.
Did he really say he listens to Stevie Wonder while performing live? How is that even possible? He is supposed to have the feed from bandmates on his earphones, no?
Other drummers - "I like to hear my snare and other things when i'm performing
Gavin Harrison - "Usually Stevie Wonder"
This was my question haha, I love this answer.
Great answer!
Jan Kohrt maybe not the answer you were expecting.
Ahah that was so funny 😂😂
Gavin, Sonor, thank you so much for doing this video. Such an inspirational drummer for me. Stay safe.
Thank for being so inspirational! Legend!
Gavin has to be the best living drummer. Anything I hear or see him play blows my mind!
He’s such an artist. His technique the way he strikes the drums, minimum effort maximum results.
I can watch/listen to Gavin talk about anything, even when 80% of what he speaks about is beyond my comprehension. I’ve had the honor of watching him live for both Porcupine Tree and Pineapple Thief and it was absolutely glorious. Legend and future all time great! I’ll listen joyfully to anything he does. Thank you for everything sir!
Thank you Sonor and Gavin for sharing your knowledge.
27:05 I don't think that's what the guy was asking ahahahaha was Gavin trolling him? Maybe he just didn't understand the question? I found it quite funny either way
That was Gavin making a joke
I laughed my ass off when I got to that part😅
So generous with your time - thank you!
Thank you for a description of the posture and about your sticking! Interesting.
Thank you for taking the time answer my question! Absolutely love your work, you are one of my all time favorites and I consider you one of the greats!
New Pineapple Thief album? ❤️ awesome news!
Brilliant interview. Saw GH with Crimson, 2018 in Dallas. He and the band were beyond disciplined. .
Please, do the drum mix tutorial
Cleanest drummer ive seen so far. He is my idol. If I could be even 1% of him i can die happily.

excellent... modest, honest answers. super cool.
Great content. I find equally interesting to hear Gavin speak as to hear him play; such an eloquent human.
Pretty sure this is why the Interweb was invented. Thanks for sharing, Gavin and Sonor!
Thanks Gavin and Sonor. I really enjoyed that and am looking forward to the recording and setup videos. Greets from Germany
Thanks Gavin for answering my question! Really helps a lot. And thank you Sonor for providing this opportunity to ask questions! Looking forward for more of these!

Me in my mind: "the bounce is greater"
Gavin: "timpanic pressure"
Gotta love Gavin.😂
Hi Gavin , I really want to meet you one day
Did you switch from maple to birch shells now?
Everyone with insane talent thinks talent is a hoax. Of course you do! Because your telented!!!!
I'd watch a mix tutorial.
can you talk through your hardware those cymbal stands look different that thick grey black thing
🤘🤓🥁👍
Nice to know that Gavin listens to Stevie Wonder while playing live.
Nice
Can there be anything more beautiful than British English, especially when Gavin Harrison speaks it?
What your favorite heads for toms ?
He normally uses remo vintage coated emperor
GusBan i’m pretty sure he uses coated ambassadors as top heads, and clear ambassadors as bottom heads, but probably he alternated between emperor and ambassador
@@bruno-nw9qm I'd happily be proven wrong, but it's well documented in many other places that he USUALLY (not always of course) uses vintage coated emps
GusBan emperors are killer
It's coated Emperors on top and clear Ambassadors on the bottom for rack toms. On the top of the floor tom is a vintage coated emperor. And again, clear ambassadors on the bottom, I assume.
Thank you Gavin for taking out the time to answer and Sonor Drums for making it happen :)
25:10
Thank you for inspiring me to strive to be a better drummer.
Stevie Wonder Mix 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks!
You sound sick sir:(
15:17 my X girlfriend
Damn, that's so rough
Did he really say he listens to Stevie Wonder while performing live? How is that even possible? He is supposed to have the feed from bandmates on his earphones, no?
It's a joke.....
1 hour of Gavin and no drum playing? What’s wrong with you 🤦♂️
