So super weird but I find it cool, but I've been missing concerts for a while. I love concerts.


But I've really fallen into the concert rabbit hole on Youtube and came across videos of drummers working concerts and think they're really cool to watch.


Elijah Wood Shania Twains drummer has a Drum cam and I think its super fun to watch








There are a bunch of other ones that I've watched Shakira's drummer has his own channel with Drum cams.



Marilyn Manson's drum cam





Neal Peart

As far as drum cams go this one has to be my favourite:


I've been down the same rabbit hole, but watching videos from bands in the 60's, 70's, the type of stuff you hear all the time but have no idea what they look like. Bands like Chicago, Yes, The Byrds, that sort of stuff.

Drum cams are cool, I wish there was a better quality version of Danny Carey playing 46 & 2 but it was filmed on a potato in 1996 so I'll link something a little more recent:



Even if you're not a Tool fan, Danny's a pretty special talent.

How Tool has been around for 25 years and yet Danny Carey continues to live life as a half man/half octopus is still bewildering to me. And no one even talks about it! They just act like his inhuman drumming is totally not the result of gene splicing.

On a downer note, MM makes me kinda sad. I know he’s not likely to garner much sympathy, especially given his persona, but the dude has been a walking zombie for at least 10 years, maybe 15.

Artists like Amy Winehouse get all the press when they overdose but a guy like Manson, who can barely stand up straight at his concerts and has this awful mumbled moan of a voice, gets no attention. At least not until he ODs and dies. It’s sad, the guy can barely get the words out in any sort of a comprehensible fashion. It’s sounds like a dying giraffe.

I almost wish he’d just get clean or die. He’s been somewhat publicly wasting away for years and no one seems to care. He keeps touring and it endlessly supplies his drug habit.

Anyways, back to the funny!

That guy has a YouTube channel (the drummer, not the guy that posted that video) and it’s amazing.

The link is in the description to the video you posted.

One of my favourite things lately is the comedian Paul F. Tompkins doing a Werner Herzog impression:


"MADNESS REIGNS".

A little late to the party but I was here just the other day. It's really something to see, the supports drilled into the ground and the whole assembly reminds you of something out of a Batman movie. It winds its way past buildings and over the main road. Very very cool.
