RIP Mr. Patient.. spent his last moments strapped down, feet cold and eyes red. Could only muster the strength before releasing his light to shit the bed 😭 🤘
Pure poetry brother, though I would also add one last desperate fuck with the love of my life, while listening to it (and preferably watching this video as well.) A pretty damned good way to go out, which we all shall sooner or later, when we come to the end of the journey from womb to tomb. ;-)
Danny is just your everyday 7 foot tall, jazz drumming, 180 iq having, sacred geometry loving, psychedelic doing, midwestern, fun loving, humorous guy. You know? Those guys.
The guy is a power drummer, and the fact that he plays this song during every concert for the fear inoculum album and does it the exact same way every night speaks volumes about how incredible he is as a drummer. Tool would never be the same band with a different drummer, singer basis and guitar player we struck gold when these people found each other and created this band !!!!
The absolute master of polymetric, unique time signatures. It never gets old watching drummers try to figure out his time signatures and giving up. The complete heir to Neil Peart and it's easy to see his influence. This song is a complete showcase for him, and deservedly so. What might be more amazing is the fact that Danny is 58 yrs. old when this was recorded. Tool is simply an experience. Danny is simply one of the best drummers alive today.
I mean, they're easy to figure out, it just takes actual time and attention to hear them. This song has its verses in 33/16. The chorus is in 4/4. The bridge section is a 3 over 4 polyrhythm between Danny and the rest of the band.
@KingOfLegends23 The poster mentioned Neil Peart as a drummer who Danny is influenced by. I merely mentioned a few more. I guess it has to be spelled out for you...
@KingOfLegends23 How is mentioning other drummers who influenced him _in addition_ to the one mentioned not adding something to the discussion? It quite literally is.
AND HE WAS 58 WHEN HE DID THIS! And can we talk about the polyrhythms? That other sound is the guitar, yes sir. The guy in back is Maynard, making it about the music, not him. A shocking thing for a lead singer. He was getting out of the way for the wall of sound that the band ushered in for feeding.
A comment somewhere said he drank like two cases of water during a concert and never took a piss. He's probably eating 8 to 10k calories on a concert day. The Rock eats 10k a day to maintain his physique, so drummers are probably in that range during tours.
Yup. Steve Gadd is 24, Grohl is 27, and Travis Barker is 99! Something seems off with this list...www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/100-greatest-drummers-of-all-time-77933/earl-hudson-33973/
They had RINGO ranked above him..... RINGO! Don’t get me wrong I love the Beatles and Ringo, but he can’t even hold a candle to DC in terms of skill. DC is easily top 5 of all time imo, right up there with Bonham, Peart and Buddy Rich
@@MusicShed Well, that magazine left freaking Joe Satriani OUT of the 100 greatest guitarrist of all time, so... You can't expect much from those guys.
It's an opinion list dude hahahah. It's hard to standardized a rating system to measure any construct. Danny is VERY good, we will leave it at that to be conservative.
it is maynard, as we all know his favorite spot is in the dark behind everyone else...at 3:57 of the video, he's right there behind the right-back crash and china lurking and crouching like a tiger ready to pounce.
I've watched about 20 plus different reactions to this song. That was very entertaining! A nice mix of teaching, awe, funny comments and piano too! Well done!
seeing Tool live is the closest thing to a religious experience I've had, excluding taking psychedelics. they are even better live than on record, and Danny absolutely nails it every time I've seen them.
Saw them at Sovereign Bank Arena in Trenton about a million years ago. Smoked a little before going in, but that's it. They played my fave, H, and during the crescendo I started tripping my face off, full on out of body experience when he screamed "I DON'T MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIND!"
Man if more music teachers were like this guy the world would be a much better sounding place. Instead they make everyone play the damn recorder for a year.
The guy you seen walking in the back is Tools lead singer Maynard. He stays in the back in the dark and sings so the people can focus on the truth of the lyrics and not on him. One reason why this band is so F**K**G AWESOME!!!!
actually he was crossing to his other platform. On their recent tour he had two platforms, one on each side of Danny, and he would go back and forth at different points during the show. So you'd see him on one then disappear and reappear on the other side of the stage. It was a cool setup.
@10:08 - 'Who's that guy walking back there?' That's the singer, Maynard. He sings from a platform on either side of the drum kit rather than front/center stage. He will sometimes swap sides in a breakdown like this. Great reaction!!
He’s like 60, shredded, giant and phenomenal. That rolling stone tanking must’ve been way before this album. There’s no way he doesn’t jump to the top 3. I just wish they had a chancellor cam and a Jones cam. Even a Maynard cam would be wicked. Tool is to this generation what ELP or Pink Floyd was to those generations.
I also wondered how much energy Danny must use during a set. When I saw them live earlier this year, Pneuma was I think fifth out of ten songs. The guy is an athlete of the highest calibre. Mentally and physically on another level. Also a little tidbit for you. The drum pad skins were designed by Ironhead Studios. The team that design and make all the Marvel Avengers masks and outfits.
People never talk about his precision during live performance. They are touring and playing through their songs. He makes it look thoroughly easy. So hard for people to understand the level of musicianship of these guys. Including Maynard of course.
Tool has 3 other members, so Danny is constantly playing between 2 and 4 time signatures to sync everybody up... He unifies the time signatures with his drums and makes the song work. Every member of the band is a genius and an equal contributor and has equal say in composition.
Well said which why they are great. Team work at its finest. Especially artistically speaking. No one memember is more important than the other in the band and its apparent if you see them live. Absolutely incredible
Alex G. here, won't bother listing my credentials. Danny once said that he doesn't lay down the 'beat', he plays the MUSIC. No click track, just pure story telling. Notice how his forearms are parallel to the floor, his drums low and at a flat angle. Perfect. The Man is a genius, like his band mates. Welcome to the Cult that is TOOL.😢
Most tool songs have Justin and Adam doing their own things and Danny tying it all together with multiple different time signatures going. One with each hand and foot at times. That's why his nickname is the octopus.
@3:45 "What time signature are they in?" IIRC at the moment you're asking it's 14/8 + 14/8 + 5/8. With occasional 14/8 + 14/8 + 6/8. The chorus is 4/4. There are a couple one-off 5/4 bars throughout the song, too.
One of the best pieces of musical advice I ever got came from a one-on-one master class with Daron Hagen back when I was in music school. He said: "Totally inspired composing and performing is the best. It's what we all want all the time. But of course it doesn't work like that; inspiration comes and goes. So our job -- the real 'job' of being a musician -- is to get SO GOOD at our craft that no one can tell the difference between inspiration and technique."
Eurystheus: " Heracles, I have a thirteenth labor to complete if you wish to gain immortality: Play the drums live on this Tool song; Pneuma." Danny Carey: "Hold my beer." Edit: BTW, sub'd. Great production, presentation. Joining in at the end was icing on the cake.
the guy in the back was probably Maynard, he likes to perform at the back away from the spotlight, so he was probably walking around while the others were playing
By for now? Eric the Actor reference!!?? Lol. Yeah man, heartfelt respect given to one of the absolute greats!! Doesn’t matter what kind of music your into, you cannot listen/watch Danny rock around this sound and not have your mind blown 🤯 the patterns and rhythms guitar, bass, drums, and even vocals are forming weaving in and out of are like no other kind of music!! Love love love the drum cam Vic Firth so thank you for sponsoring this effort. I’ve been watching reaction videos around Pneuma and Danny Carey for days and EVERYONE views it like I do!! Danny, you are the drum 🥁 👑!!!! ✊✌️
That "guy walkin' back there" is the lead singer of Tool, Maynard James Keenan, doing his usual "I'mma do the whole concert from the back of the stage" routine. Edit: Also, 33/16. Count 5+3+3+3+5+3+3+3+5
I get the same result but for me, it feels more natural to solve it polymetrically as 5/8 + 11/8 + 12/8 + 5/8 (it is especially the 12 - 13 transition that makes wobbly heads) for the verse. And yes - we both smile to each other at 33. And it makes sense that we solve it differently because the different band members have a tendency to put their accents at different places. So it can end up feeling even more rhythmically deep - even before they break out into polyrhythmic on top of the poly-metrics (as in the middle theme). The important thing is though - how smooth and groovy they play odd-number bonanza. It is there, making headbangers confused, but when we lean back and lets it wash over us it is so damned fluid and meaty. The sequences are not flashy - they feel integral to what at least I listen to. And in this case, I feel that almost the entire song is creating tension. Only a couple of times do they release the tension. (my personal theory, this is why FI-album got mixed reviews for being introvert or navel-gazing as first listening. They are building these long phases of tension - and they give a big F in people's desire for a quick tension-release. I enjoy the way they hold and builds these statics - insisting us to be there and listen. Excellent stuff).
That guy you saw walkin in the back was Maynard the lead vocalist. He goes back and forth from these elevated darkened platforms on either side of Carey. I got to see them last February the day before everything shut down, it was amazing.
Hey David, this is Drew, one of your bassists from Music Shed! Glad I stumbled upon your channel! If you want your face melted off, you should check out Demolisher - Slaughter To Prevail.
Loved your reaction and the way you started to join in at the end. I’ve loved tool since the first ep and still listen to them with passion. Love ya work!
My first visit to channel young man. Danny in the first few sections is just loosing up and getting the old blood flowing. He save the ass kicking for later! Danny just had a birthday. He has been drumming for around 50 years! I contend that Danny Carey is a one man drum line.... I left a comment at another video saying Danny is a robot!! You will have to decide for yourself. My favorite part is coming.... Watch for when the overhead light start to flash. And he explodes! At 11:45! Thank you sir!!!!................ I think you loved this as much as we did!!!
The purple electronic drums are Synesthesia Mandala Drums that are capable of 128 different sounds per head... Givem a look.. He helped develop them.... Simply a Percussion God.
Wow, Technique will set you free !! So true!! I love how Daney Carey uses a more conventional Rock grip with his sticks ,but I would still love to learn the Jazz technique . I would also love some of those nice double kick pedals as well 8)
Yeah rolling Stone magazine must be high..there is no way Danny is 26 more like #1 or 2. He's my all time favorite though. Top 5 are Danny, Neil, Keith Moon, John Bonham and Stewart Copeland.
The best part of your video was when ya mentioned his veins in his legs 😅. God I laughed there. They’re actually vic firth, tool exclusive veins he had installed when he was younger
I've seen this performance before but it was fun to watch your reaction for sure. Seemed genuine and EXACTLY how I felt when I was watching and actually experiencing these incredible and technically bad-ass approches to each performers parts. It all comes together perfectly in this performance, simply amazing. Anyhow, earned my sub on this one @Music Shed. As a guitarist myself on my weekly livestreams I strive for perfection every time and understand how much personal effort it takes to get to new heights. Looking forward to more content.
Came for the music. Having seen/heard the video 1000 times… stayed for the review. Subbed for the comments below. (Kinda kidding) seriously though, pure gold. Laughing out loud. On a serious note: thanks for teaching - music saves humans.
People are saying 33/16, but it wouldn't make sense to have a 45-50 bpm tempo. It's much simpler if you say 33/8 @ 100 bpm. I think the easiest way to count it is to think of the first bass note as a pickup note, then count 7 twice (half time), then 5 double time. So 14 + 14 + 5 = 33.
Let me say: The amazing stamina of Danny is incredible, yes! But this is one song on the moment of the complete show.... Now realize that this greatness goes on.. I cried during the show. Really. I have no words for the experience of these blessed artists.
I have watched that video at least 50 times. Most bad ass thing I've seen in a very long time. Some people just have a purpose in life. And Danny has his sitting right behind his drums. WHAT A BEAST
Good reaction! Wise words People always talk about the talent but it’s the hours one puts in… Technique is super important if one doesn’t want to walk away with injuries playing this instrument! He’s an absolute beast and I was blessed to have seen him live and close up down here like a week or so ago :)
2 things I've read about DC that blow my mind - 1) he doesn't really think about time signatures, more he follows the "feel" of the song, and 2) he practices playing the "hand rhythms" with his feet and the "feet rhythms" with his hands, I guess minus all the fills though!
You're very knowledgeable. I love the the little video inserts and the facts you put up. I never knew the facts on screen. This guy is the best drummer ever!

The time signature is whatever the f*ck Danny wants it to be
5/8,14/8,4/4
To any of the Newbies out there, welcome to Prog Rock. ;)
As a fan of Tool for 27 years my advice would be to not try to figure out the time signitures of Danny Carey, just enjoy and spiral out.
Keep going!
My first thought.
Sarah H spiral out. I see what you’ve done there. ;)
I remember seeing somewhere that Adam said pneuma was in 33/16
...because fuck it, that’s why. 🙂

Legend has it that Danny made a deal with the devil. No one knows what Danny got out of the deal, but the devil got a drum lesson.
underrated comment
Could have wtote the song. Went to Maynard with "THIS THING" That was all she wrote
Literal the same comment posted on every single Pneuma reaction video
So true!! This f.n..guy did sell his soul!! There is NO F.N..WAY TO BE THAT GOOD!!!!!!!..🤦♂️
The guy is a power drummer, and the fact that he plays this song during every concert for the fear inoculum album and does it the exact same way every night speaks volumes about how incredible he is as a drummer.
Tool would never be the same band with a different drummer, singer basis and guitar player we struck gold when these people found each other and created this band !!!!
FACTS 🙌
The absolute master of polymetric, unique time signatures. It never gets old watching drummers try to figure out his time signatures and giving up. The complete heir to Neil Peart and it's easy to see his influence. This song is a complete showcase for him, and deservedly so. What might be more amazing is the fact that Danny is 58 yrs. old when this was recorded. Tool is simply an experience. Danny is simply one of the best drummers alive today.
And Adrien Belew, Dennis Chambers, Jon Bonham, to name 3 more...
I mean, they're easy to figure out, it just takes actual time and attention to hear them. This song has its verses in 33/16. The chorus is in 4/4. The bridge section is a 3 over 4 polyrhythm between Danny and the rest of the band.
@KingOfLegends23 Danny is highly influenced by those drummers...maybe be even just as much as Neil Peart. Not irrelevant at all.
@KingOfLegends23 The poster mentioned Neil Peart as a drummer who Danny is influenced by. I merely mentioned a few more. I guess it has to be spelled out for you...
@KingOfLegends23 How is mentioning other drummers who influenced him _in addition_ to the one mentioned not adding something to the discussion? It quite literally is.

How many calories did Danny burn? I dont know but knowing TOOL I bet it's a number in the Fibonacci Sequence.
46 and 2 calories
With the efficacy of his movements, probably not as many as you'd think.
A comment somewhere said he drank like two cases of water during a concert and never took a piss. He's probably eating 8 to 10k calories on a concert day. The Rock eats 10k a day to maintain his physique, so drummers are probably in that range during tours.
its 25 calories at the low end of the curve to 150 Cal. seeing how hes a pretty big dude, i would consider the higher end....
What time was he in??..Danny Carey Time!
26TH WTF. He is top 10 easy.
Yup. Steve Gadd is 24, Grohl is 27, and Travis Barker is 99! Something seems off with this list...www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/100-greatest-drummers-of-all-time-77933/earl-hudson-33973/
I’m not a fan of polls. DC is a fantastic musician. He plays the drums like he has an orchestra in front of him and he can also rock as hard as any.
They had RINGO ranked above him..... RINGO! Don’t get me wrong I love the Beatles and Ringo, but he can’t even hold a candle to DC in terms of skill. DC is easily top 5 of all time imo, right up there with Bonham, Peart and Buddy Rich

Got rid of Facebook so I've been addicted to watching the Danny Carey reaction videos. This one is in my top three
seeing Tool live is the closest thing to a religious experience I've had, excluding taking psychedelics. they are even better live than on record, and Danny absolutely nails it every time I've seen them.
It IS a religious experience. That's how I've always explained their shows to people who don't know.
TOOL live and in person is a serious experience. Brilliant musicians bringing you on a journey. Sounds corny but it is what it is.
Everything said here is 100% truth. 🙏
Left my first tool show feeling like I just went through an hour long acid trip
Saw them at Sovereign Bank Arena in Trenton about a million years ago. Smoked a little before going in, but that's it. They played my fave, H, and during the crescendo I started tripping my face off, full on out of body experience when he screamed "I DON'T MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIND!"
I have watched a thousand reaction videos to this video...every single one: "wtf time signature is this"
“ what time signature are they in?”
Tool: what’s a time signature?
or "In which universe?"
Shed: “Who’s that guy in the background? Who’s that?!”
TOOL fans: “A wild Maynard appears! :D”
I just saw them Tuesday and hearing this live was an emotional experience. The entire band is awe inspiring. Been a fan since ‘96!
Man if more music teachers were like this guy the world would be a much better sounding place. Instead they make everyone play the damn recorder for a year.
Ty for being honest and not arrogant. I remember riding my bike to get undertow. I’m 42 now. They really are badass
Are you 42 or 46&2?
I can't wait to turn 48 to annoy people.
That’s awesome!
Danny is so good. He's always in the zone and he's a super nice human being.
I really like the added facts about Danny like where he was born. I think it adds greatly the reaction experience. Good job 👍
The guy you seen walking in the back is Tools lead singer Maynard. He stays in the back in the dark and sings so the people can focus on the truth of the lyrics and not on him. One reason why this band is so F**K**G AWESOME!!!!
Seeing Danny Carey doing his thing I would call MJK a Drum Backup Vocalist. ;-)
tool is such a mind bending band. they should make a song called: "what time signature is that?" 🤯
In fact they did... but they called it "Die Eier von Satan"
“Who’s that guy walking back there” that my friend is Sir Maynard James Keenan probably going to backstage for some wine
actually he was crossing to his other platform. On their recent tour he had two platforms, one on each side of Danny, and he would go back and forth at different points during the show. So you'd see him on one then disappear and reappear on the other side of the stage. It was a cool setup.

I just wish they had a chancellor cam and a Jones cam. Even a Maynard cam would be wicked. Tool is to this generation what ELP or Pink Floyd was to those generations.
I’m really against music polls at my core. But the factoid sparked nice dialogue here!
What time signature are they in?
Danny/Tool: Yes! ^^
According to experts...It would be in 33/8...Jeez!!!
5/7 I thinks 😏
Came in the comments to type the exact same thing
They exist outside of time
I thought it was Forty Six & 2?
I also wondered how much energy Danny must use during a set. When I saw them live earlier this year, Pneuma was I think fifth out of ten songs. The guy is an athlete of the highest calibre. Mentally and physically on another level.

Finally someone mentioned how he has that Neil Peart sound. Danny is amazing. Seen them play a couple times. Flawless live. Syncopated
Thank you!! It’s the great pleasure to watch the knowing person reacts and values this drum masterpiece!❤
Most tool songs have Justin and Adam doing their own things and Danny tying it all together with multiple different time signatures going. One with each hand and foot at times. That's why his nickname is the octopus.
This guy is a fuckin maniac. I hardly disbelief that even a few people are able to do what he is capable of. Period
Watching him control the volume, pitch, and speed of those taps at the beginning just made my brain melt with amazing
@3:45 "What time signature are they in?"
IIRC at the moment you're asking it's 14/8 + 14/8 + 5/8. With occasional 14/8 + 14/8 + 6/8. The chorus is 4/4. There are a couple one-off 5/4 bars throughout the song, too.
Now I get it. I thought it was 666/69
It hurts my brain
It sounds like 11/8: first bar of 11 beats is grouped 6 + 5, second bar is 5 + 6
One of the best pieces of musical advice I ever got came from a one-on-one master class with Daron Hagen back when I was in music school.

Answer: “Yes.”
Never get tired of people watching Danyy Carey and watching them realize how brilliant he is
Time signature is just that Tool is the greatest band and key to the Universe
The Music Shed, welcome to The Tool Shed.
“What time signature are they in??” Sorry sir Thats classified.
Danny Carey: "yes"
All of them
Awesome reaction man, I'm glad you enjoyed it! They have an incredible discography definitely worth diving deeper into, even if just for yourself.
Their music is a TOOL to elevate your spirit
Exactly 🙏❤
Duuuuuuude do more tool! I really like how you started playing along with it at the end it was really incredible man I was riveted
That "guy walkin' back there" is the lead singer of Tool, Maynard James Keenan, doing his usual "I'mma do the whole concert from the back of the stage" routine.
Edit: Also, 33/16. Count 5+3+3+3+5+3+3+3+5

The important thing is though - how smooth and groovy they play odd-number bonanza. It is there, making headbangers confused, but when we lean back and lets it wash over us it is so damned fluid and meaty. The sequences are not flashy - they feel integral to what at least I listen to.
And in this case, I feel that almost the entire song is creating tension. Only a couple of times do they release the tension. (my personal theory, this is why FI-album got mixed reviews for being introvert or navel-gazing as first listening. They are building these long phases of tension - and they give a big F in people's desire for a quick tension-release. I enjoy the way they hold and builds these statics - insisting us to be there and listen. Excellent stuff).
@@glacieractivity the fact that this is a comment on a youtube video is the best fuckin part. Thank you sir!
I saw a video that counted it like this. Made sense to me.
1-2
1-2-3-4-5-6
1-2-3-4-5-6
1-2
1-2-3-4-5-6
1-2-3-4-5-6
1-2
1-2-3 (repeat)
maybe I'm retarded but I got a 7-8, 7-4, 5-8, delay 7-4 in the begining
@@Mazzini11 and sadly its in a reply to a comment so it will get surely missed by the masses.. but yes amazing stuff @glacier activity
That guy you saw walkin in the back was Maynard the lead vocalist. He goes back and forth from these elevated darkened platforms on either side of Carey. I got to see them last February the day before everything shut down, it was amazing.
Hey David, this is Drew, one of your bassists from Music Shed! Glad I stumbled upon your channel! If you want your face melted off, you should check out Demolisher - Slaughter To Prevail.
Loved your reaction and the way you started to join in at the end.
I’ve loved tool since the first ep and still listen to them with passion.
Love ya work!
3:44 "Which time signature are they in?" This is Tool, mate; which bar are you referring to?
also which limb
Tool playing in 2 different alternating time signatures with a 3rd time signatures after so many bars.
Right? There around 80 signature changes in this song.
Danny is his own time signature
It's almost as if his limbs act independently of each other. Unreal
That's why they call him the octopus.
My first visit to channel young man. Danny in the first few sections is just loosing up and getting the old blood flowing. He save the ass kicking for later! Danny just had a birthday. He has been drumming for around 50 years! I contend that Danny Carey is a one man drum line....
I left a comment at another video saying Danny is a robot!! You will have to decide for yourself. My favorite part is coming.... Watch for when the overhead light start to flash. And he explodes! At 11:45! Thank you sir!!!!................ I think you loved this as much as we did!!!
The purple electronic drums are Synesthesia Mandala Drums that are capable of 128 different sounds per head... Givem a look.. He helped develop them.... Simply a Percussion God.
You nailed it man I’ve watched at least 20 reactions to this and every time I say he is another world blessed by some drum god
Wow, Technique will set you free !! So true!! I love how Daney Carey uses a more conventional Rock grip with his sticks ,but I would still love to learn the Jazz technique . I would also love some of those nice double kick pedals as well 8)
Drum Kingdom...best description ever...and your duet killed it
Yeah rolling Stone magazine must be high..there is no way Danny is 26 more like #1 or 2. He's my all time favorite though. Top 5 are Danny, Neil, Keith Moon, John Bonham and Stewart Copeland.
Best drummer to ever walk the face of the earth.
@@aquawicket my thoughts exactly.
Stewaaaart! I don't see many people giving him the recognition he deserves.
you've got a good base, now groove to Billy Cobham, Vinnie Colaiuta, Lenny White, maybe some Weckl
@@ericyount3858 Billy Cobham is fantastic
He is a numerology man, you are in his time signature where time does not really exist.
The best part of your video was when ya mentioned his veins in his legs 😅. God I laughed there. They’re actually vic firth, tool exclusive veins he had installed when he was younger
I've seen this performance before but it was fun to watch your reaction for sure. Seemed genuine and EXACTLY how I felt when I was watching and actually experiencing these incredible and technically bad-ass approches to each performers parts. It all comes together perfectly in this performance, simply amazing. Anyhow, earned my sub on this one @Music Shed. As a guitarist myself on my weekly livestreams I strive for perfection every time and understand how much personal effort it takes to get to new heights. Looking forward to more content.
David - What time signature are they in?
TOOL Army - Yes.
Is that what they say?
@@MusicShed Yes.
Came for the music. Having seen/heard the video 1000 times… stayed for the review. Subbed for the comments below. (Kinda kidding) seriously though, pure gold. Laughing out loud. On a serious note: thanks for teaching - music saves humans.
“He’s in the zone. He’s at One.” Yeah that’s the idea of this song ha!
the person walking around in the background was the lead singer Manerd James Kennan
People are saying 33/16, but it wouldn't make sense to have a 45-50 bpm tempo. It's much simpler if you say 33/8 @ 100 bpm. I think the easiest way to count it is to think of the first bass note as a pickup note, then count 7 twice (half time), then 5 double time. So 14 + 14 + 5 = 33.
If every drummer hadn’t already seen this, every drummer should see this.
Calories burned? None - that's Danny's resting state...
Let me say:
The amazing stamina of Danny is incredible, yes! But this is one song on the moment of the complete show....
Now realize that this greatness goes on.. I cried during the show. Really. I have no words for the experience of these blessed artists.
Great analysis!!! Your keyboard sounded great too at the end!
You kidding??
He ruined it at the MONSTER FILL part.
I have watched that video at least 50 times. Most bad ass thing I've seen in a very long time. Some people just have a purpose in life. And Danny has his sitting right behind his drums. WHAT A BEAST
Those are 4 guys sent from an other galaxy to teach us what music can be...
I was at this show, and saw this live. Even so, I could (and do) watch this video again and again and again.
“What time signature are they in?”
Good question! Only 4 people in the world know...
Good reaction!
Wise words
People always talk about the talent but it’s the hours one puts in…
Technique is super important if one doesn’t want to walk away with injuries playing this instrument!
He’s an absolute beast and I was blessed to have seen him live and close up down here like a week or so ago :)
You should look at Lateralus from them live. He is multi tasking the whole song. Amazing drummer
we did that one
Your piano at the end was genuinely super cool 💜
"What Time Signature are They In: An Unauthorized Biography of Maynard Keenan"
What time signature are y'all in?
Maynard: fuck if I know, ask Danny!
@@normancounts2924 Danny: Speaks in alien, no one has the capability to comprehend.
The first time I saw this...wide eyed in complete awe. Still have the same reaction. ❤👍Danny is in his element.
PINK FLOYD + LED ZEPPELIN + RUSH =
🔥👽TOOL👽🔥
Also some King Crimson imo
Yup
@@j.r.v.p_14 Definitely.
That math seems to add up. I think I will use that when someone asks what is Tool. I'll say imagine those three bands put together.
Cannot say you're wrong! 😂
What time signature is this song?
Tool: All of them!
2 things I've read about DC that blow my mind - 1) he doesn't really think about time signatures, more he follows the "feel" of the song, and 2) he practices playing the "hand rhythms" with his feet and the "feet rhythms" with his hands, I guess minus all the fills though!
Love from the Tool Army! Great reaction!
If you want the time signature, it's the rythm guitar! Danny plays lead!
You're very knowledgeable. I love the the little video inserts and the facts you put up. I never knew the facts on screen. This guy is the best drummer ever!
I love watching peoples reaction to Danny! High hat in the middle followed by what time signature are they in? Lol
I missed this react video the last six months and I think is the best!
