Broski, DMB also has a great keys, lead guitarist, reeds, and arguably the best jazz trumpet player out there. Not to mention a solid bass. The band is much bigger in sound and dynamics since the 90s. They DO NOT play What Would You Say every show. They are a jazz fusion band. Check out their recent live shows, if you have not. Peace
It really shits me that with every single one of these types of vids that these drum 'teachers' do, that they always, and I mean always seem obliged to give a disclosure something like' 'hey, Carters cool and here's a cool drum thing, and no matter what you think of dmb', you know, giving them an out with all the dmb haters out there. If people don't like dmb or appreciate carter as a drummer, fine, they don't have to listen or watch this vid. But why the need to give a disclosure? If you as a drum 'teacher' don't like carter or dmb, just do something else. Maybe some lars or something.
@@TheShiftydog sad but true. its one of those phrases that i think makes teachers feel like they wont get made fun of or something..or gives them a bit of credibility... which is like, what are we, in middle school? sadly, everyone likes to hate on the popular bands for no reason at all, but its just because its what simple minded people do best.
You can love or hate their "jam band-ness" but your can't deny their musicianship. I was a music major in college when they hit it big in the early 90s. At the time, my big influences were Peart and Weckl. If I couldn't play their licks perfectly, at least I could figure them out. Then, along came Carter and I was blown away. There is so much space in a lot of what he plays with all the syncopation! Definitely a case of less is more. And, at least for me, that made it much harder to play.
The critics can say what they want. DMB sold more tickets than any other band from 2000-2010 and are currently the only band to have eight straight number one record debuts. Everyone is entitled to their opinion; the opinion is just wrong :P
I've know Carter since long before DM - when he was in a Richmond, VA jazz Fusion band called "Secrets". They were great and he was a monster drummer even back then. My Charlottesville band, Wolves of Azure, did a number of gigs with DMB and even filled in for them at one gig. I know the guys in the band from before they were in the DMB.
Carter invited me to be his guest at any of their shows this summer (obviously that’s not going to happen now). Told me to leave my money at home, and come hang out with them backstage, have dinner with them, and watch the show from backstage. Would’ve been a great way to celebrate my 75th show.
Hey there. Great video. One thing on that solo out point; usually the band will have something pre-set but Dave usually runs the length of those solo sections. If you watch other clips you will see him turn to Carter and either nod to signal a 4 bar point or you will see them talk via closed loop talk back through lab mics. He usually looks over to the bass/horn section as well. Sometimes you can see Carter mouth what looks to be “one” which I would assume means on the next one be out. Back in the day when IEM feeds were available there was all kinds of fun going on. Miss that.
Recently took a small road trip and gave the kids an education in DMB. My daughter drums and son plays guitar. Me and mom play bass and mandolin. We sound terrible, but we have fun.
Anybody else wonder how you go from being a huge DMB fan.... to not being one? They’re what our music world needs more of. Original, passionate, profound talent, and chemistry.
He must be talking about the fact that their first 3-4 albums were masterpieces, and then mostly lemons after that. It's just a wee bit frustrating to go to a DMB show hoping for only old shit. If there's a new album, you're gonna hear plenty of it, and we all know that's not what we want. Still love DMB though, 40+ shows and counting!
Honestly, tastes change. When I was young I listened to DMB almost exclusively. I still think they're super good (I've enjoyed several of their albums over the years), I just have found a lot of other bands that are also super good. But when I was young....DMB was the _only_ band I loved. You feel it a lot more when it's your one and only, ya know? Time has changed that for me...
That’s the adjective I use when I’m watching or discussing Carters’ playing with my father and other drummers. It would still be impressive if he was sweating it out, but to watch him do it so effortlessly, blowing bubbles and singing backup, is really just some next level ability.
Got back into them again last two years. Lots of love in there. They've progressed in a very cool way, with the dual guitars. Wasn't sure at first but groo grux is beautiful and the newest one too
Hello This Is Mobin I mean it kind of is🤔 amazing player ! Doesn’t really jive tonal with the other players tones . I think warmer , bigger , rounded are ways to describe the sounds from the band
Love the video man! Excellent incite on one of my favorite bands. I love watching break downs of individual musicianship from people who know and love the industry. One caveat to your comments on What Would You Say...out of my 35 shows I’ve only seen it played 14 times. So while it could be considered a DMB staple, I definitely wouldn’t say it’s a guarantee at EVERY show! Nitpicking aside, thanks for the new perspective on one of my musical heroes! Cheers! Liked AND Subscribed.
DMB legends, masters! i love soo many different drummers but Carter is forever my #1 drum god/hero! Finally got myself a pair of Zildjian K hats like he used ;)
Yeah, at 9:19 until Dave starts singing again, was originally John Popper's harmonica solo on the record. Jeff & Rashawn wrote the horn riff to fill that space for the shows.
I just found your channel. I am digging it. I am a 52-year-old drummer, and I love your approach. Carter s amazing. I want to find a Matt Abts video for you to check out. He's from Gov't Mule. I'll find a groovy one and post it. Keep these coming, sir!
Big DMB fan, as a high school student in Virginia when they started (in Charlottesville, Virginia, UVA), went to some great live shows. Love Carter (and think it’s BEE’YOO-furd, fwiw). I feel their haters never gave them a chance, or liked them until they got popular, and successful. Great recent NPR Tiny Desk, w/Dave solo.
I loved what you said on behalf of DMB in the last couple minutes of your video.. let me just add that they regularly go beyond "fun" into positively intense and emotional. And everybody's got chops- Carter's the best, but each member shines at their chosen instrument. All concertgoers owe it to themselves to see this band in their element.
I just watched this and the Danny Carey video. 2 if my favorite bands and 2 of the best drummers in rock. Check out carters lessons, breaks down #41 and say goodbye. He does a one handed Tom tom roll in say goodbye that I had to watch a few times to realize what he did. Amazing. Danny Carey and Carter blow me away, as a bass player i would love to play with those 2 beasts.
Just recently found you, randomly I might add. I've been playing since I was 3, I'm 31. There is a lot I can learn from you! I appreciate all you have to say. For the record, Carter is one of my biggest drum influences! Really like your breakdown of him, it's opened my eyes believe it or not!
Great review. I wish you'd also check out the Spaceman and Shake Me Like a Monkey drumcam from Vic Firth too. I think it showed off Carter's chops better and amazing syncopation and groove.
Carter is awesome. Can’t beat his smile on stage! You can literally see it from the crowd. I think his stage presence makes that much better. BTW, kudos on the Levin Helm reference. Levon was a god. Keep it up man. Love the content.
Junkdrummer TV you keep making them, I’ll keep watching. As for Levon, he was a legend. I’d love to hear your opinion on Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich sometime. Gene being the influence of the modern “Drumset” and Buddy Rich being the madman he was. Curious about how you might incorporate their techniques in teaching.
I love Carter. Always loved his sound and style. His playing stood out the most when I heard DMB for the first time in 1994. I had his Under the Table and Drumming video. I think he said he learned to play that open style by accident because he was trying to emulate Buddy Rich. Not too much into them now. Mostly listen to Under the Table and Dreaming and The Lillywhite Sessions. I can tell you one big reason why they are divisive and disliked by many - it has less to do with their music and more to do with their fan base.
FYI....he's not a left handed drummer. His kit would be totally opposite of what it is. This coming from a lefty drummer. But Carter is one of my all time favs!
Ya know... ;) you say you pretty much hear this song at every show, but interestingly enough, being literally the oldest song that put them on the radio, it's only the 11th most played song in their history, less than Don't Drink the Water, released 4 years later. It was played only 4 times in 97 & 98...and not once in 2009. It's what hooked me in 95 though. I've seen them 26 times since 98 and would go every single day given the opportunity.
i heard dave mention that in an old interview....that he plays in a very percussive way, allowing carter to go all over the place and do his thing. this drum instructor said it too, around the 8 minute mark...i like this assessment. :)
Btw, glad you brought up ergonomics. I think drum ergonomics can’t be stressed enough. Of course it is possible to play extremely well whilst ruining your back, but why? Buddy Rich didn’t have to end up with his back issues that he did.
Love carter. My pops being a drummer. We use to geek out over him.... Tim reynolds is amazing in TR3.. his tone is decent. But I do know he went from Marshall to a MESA.
Being a singing drummer is so difficult that I don’t think the few good ones get enough credit. Also, his hi hat chops are ridiculous and yes, he’s a drummer to really look at for ergonomics.
He's playing the "Open Hand Technique" versus the "Cross Stick Technique." I think that the whole, "Best Drummer in the World" thing is a load of crap. Some play fast, some don't, some use lots of dynamics, some don't. Just giving the music what it needs. Nothing more, nothing less. Being recognized for your abilities BY YOUR PEERS may rewarding on a personal level however, I think it's all about adding color, and shape to the sound. For me, a perfect example is the Toto song, "Rosanna." Not many folks can't name the guy that wrote the drum track or, even consider it something special, that is, until they attempt to play it.
Digging your channel but you have the music audio FAR too low. I would like to be able to hear all the ghost notes and subtleties and you're talking over everything. Just drowning it out. If the drumming is centric to your video, why is your voice twice the volume of the music... I can't focus on the music at all.
Thank you for the kind words, but I am a reaction and analysis channel. Talking while the song is going on it's kind if necessary. But in the description I post the original video so you can watch it without my ramblings over top of it. Again, thank you for the comment! Have a great day!
Not the only one bud...I went from d/k, minor threat, nofx to Dave, flaming lips and modest mouse. I had fire dancer stickers on the back of my Jetta. Walking cliche. Haha! Nice video bro
@@JunkdrummerTV ok thanks, Regal use to make a 3B I really liked, but don't think its made anymore. I like a stick that's as close to 17 as I can get if its balance.....love the Abe Laboriel stick by vic firth and the Anton Fig by Promark.
I like them, don't love them. Carter is amazing. I don't have that much of a problem, with singing and playing, at the same time. The way I was taught, was to take a basic beat, then answer questions while keeping that beat. Spelling names, doing basic addition, etc. Then, make the part a little harder, and repeat. I'm not the best drummer, but I can hold a conversation, while playing.
I think the Trippin’ Billies video in studio would have been way better to use. Still enjoyed the hell out of this though! Edit- the song is #41. Yeesh I’m dumb as shit
Why even start the video off like that? It's like you're hedging your bet and afraid you might upset someone. If people hate Dave Matthews, so what....if those same people can't see or understand that Carter Beauford is a great drummer, why do you honestly care about their opinion?
Lol... Carter ups everybody's game, and makes them sound better, and cleaner in the process by the way he compliments other musicians around him with the field and adaptability on the fly in his is playing.
Seen DMB 11 times and I think the last show I attended was the best.. Sure do miss Le'Roy Moore and it sux Boyd Tensley is fondling 18 yr old boy butts but they still sound great even to this day.. Carter was my influence growing up on drums and I thank him for teaching me what i know today....
It's almost insulting how easy Carter makes it look. Most percussionists are struggling to keep up with him mentally, and he's back their barely sweating, singing, and blowing bubbles with his chewing gum. He's one of those drummers. That crushes beginning drummers dreams. Between Carter, and Danny Carey I gave up. I will always look forward to all the music that they make, but I always be a little salty.
Loved the first 4(?) DMB albums. Recently starting revisiting more regularly and they are still great listens. Man, I wasn't digging Dave's live vocals.
Do you think you could break down Jimmy The Rev Sullivan from Avenged Sevenfold studio recording video of Almost easy? I'd love to hear your thoughts on that. Thanks for the cool show
@@JunkdrummerTV thanks for the reply. Tim Reynolds is beyond amazing in some cases, but can otherwise ‘overplay’ so to speak. I hated on him from 2008-2018, but have come to love him post 2018 because he’s dialed it back. Anyways, just my 2 cents
Best comment on this whole thing was Dave and the other electric guitar player who’s got terrible tone . Lol .... Tim Reynolds definitely has bad electric tone. Amazing acoustic guitar player though
A bit of advice. If you are covering a song you already know, then call it a review instead of a reaction. These days on RUclips, people who use Reactions, really mean First Reaction, but still. It might help with viewers to understand that you already know these songs and these videos are you reviewing them instead of reacting to them.
Noted. I'll eventually be doing drummers I know nothing about but to get my feet under me the first 10 or so will be drummers I'm familiar with. But I am watching videos I've never watched before. I'm hope stick around for the rest of my content.
Fishman definitely doesn't get the love he deserves as a drummer but he's self taught and there's things he didn't learn that could have made him a better technical drummer imo. But I love Fishman's playing. I think he has great hands. He's a very dynamic player and knows when to bring it down to a simmer and explode to elevate. He's got all day stamina. There's times when I wonder how he can keep going playing nonstop for 20-30 minutes in a focused jam. He's really creative. There's drum parts I don't know if most other drummers would ever come up with like in Foam, Taste or It's Ice. His unexpected beats to me, are what distinguishes him. I miss his younger fire days but he grooves really well these days.
I just can’t even come close to imagining how you could hate on this band. They’re so damn good and the laid back vibe makes it even more listenable.
No one, in human history, has ever enjoyed doing any more than Carter enjoys playing the drums. At least that's what it looks like
dbsrid4 I know, I play drums and it makes me so happy to see him play
I think Sticky Wicket enjoy it equally as much.
you should see Mick Fleetwood's face when he plays. It's like he's having an orgasm.
was gonna like your comment but its at 41 so I'm gonna leave it alone
You have no proof
been to over 70 DMB shows, never same show twice, never gets old, and never will.
Kevin Karalus
Me too .. amazing every time
Damn! Would love to work my way up there! I’m on three right now at 25 hopefully four will be soon!

Anyone who doesn't like Dave Matthews doesn't like music Dave Matthews is a fusion of rock folk gospel and funk
I’ve been listening to them since the early 90s. Now, almost 40 I go to their concert every year. My dream is to see them at the Gorge.
@@jeffm8882 they're not the same without Boyd Tinsley and Le Roy Moore though especially Boyd
@@333ministries not the same...different, and still awesome sounding though
@@DMBever no no they lost something when they lost those two musicians like losing John Lennon or George Harrison

They are one of the best live shows.

I came here for the reaction to Carter and got somewhat triggered by the drummer calling Tim's guitar tone awful. Lol.
Hello This Is Mobin I mean it kind of is🤔 amazing player ! Doesn’t really jive tonal with the other players tones . I think warmer , bigger , rounded are ways to describe the sounds from the band

Same here, I think the guitar sounds just the way they want it to sound....
Hahaha… I got the fire dancer tattoo. Not with any lyrics but the fire dancer. I’ve loved them for over 20 years.
He's not left handed - he's ambidextrous
Long time and will always be a DMB fan!!!...Carter is a beast!!!

Give us another darter episode soon! I recommend rapunzel, some really weird stuff going on in that drumwise
Could be bela Fleck guesting on banjo depending on the show. Caught them in TN with Emmy Lou Harris guesting on long black vail.

@@JunkdrummerTV ok thanks, Regal use to make a 3B I really liked, but don't think its made anymore. I like a stick that's as close to 17 as I can get if its balance.....love the Abe Laboriel stick by vic firth and the Anton Fig by Promark.
Any Mickey Hart/Bill Kreutzmann reviews coming?
Eventually
I like them, don't love them. Carter is amazing. I don't have that much of a problem, with singing and playing, at the same time. The way I was taught, was to take a basic beat, then answer questions while keeping that beat. Spelling names, doing basic addition, etc. Then, make the part a little harder, and repeat. I'm not the best drummer, but I can hold a conversation, while playing.
I think the Trippin’ Billies video in studio would have been way better to use. Still enjoyed the hell out of this though!
Edit- the song is #41. Yeesh I’m dumb as shit
Why even start the video off like that? It's like you're hedging your bet and afraid you might upset someone. If people hate Dave Matthews, so what....if those same people can't see or understand that Carter Beauford is a great drummer, why do you honestly care about their opinion?
I don't think that deep about it. I just turn on the camera and talk. That's just what came out
He wears gloves because he had an injury to his hand when he was young
How can you hate dmb?
Bass/Mandolin player here, i'd love to play with Carter. I think he'd up my game.
Lol... Carter ups everybody's game, and makes them sound better, and cleaner in the process by the way he compliments other musicians around him with the field and adaptability on the fly in his is playing.
Only seen this song twice in 11 DMB shows
Seen DMB 11 times and I think the last show I attended was the best.. Sure do miss Le'Roy Moore and it sux Boyd Tensley is fondling 18 yr old boy butts but they still sound great even to this day.. Carter was my influence growing up on drums and I thank him for teaching me what i know today....
It's almost insulting how easy Carter makes it look. Most percussionists are struggling to keep up with him mentally, and he's back their barely sweating, singing, and blowing bubbles with his chewing gum. He's one of those drummers. That crushes beginning drummers dreams. Between Carter, and Danny Carey I gave up. I will always look forward to all the music that they make, but I always be a little salty.
Loved the first 4(?) DMB albums. Recently starting revisiting more regularly and they are still great listens.
Man, I wasn't digging Dave's live vocals.
Dave is a hit or miss on vocals imo. Some days he is better than oyhers
You should do a review of Rhyme & Reason there are some smooth Carter liks
I feel personally attacked for my slouching.
I do understand the criticism of too much jamming but his fanatical fans love it. I am more of a vocals fan.
Do you think you could break down Jimmy The Rev Sullivan from Avenged Sevenfold studio recording video of Almost easy? I'd love to hear your thoughts on that. Thanks for the cool show
Soon
Awesome! Definitely looking forward to the next video
Can you clarify what you mean at 8:35 when you mention ‘terrible tone’? Who has terrible tone?
The guitar player has terrible tone.
@@JunkdrummerTV thanks for the reply. Tim Reynolds is beyond amazing in some cases, but can otherwise ‘overplay’ so to speak. I hated on him from 2008-2018, but have come to love him post 2018 because he’s dialed it back.
Anyways, just my 2 cents
The second guitar player is Tim Reynolds and his tone is not bad
Just my opinion. And I know who he is.
What do you mean when you say the guitar player (Tim Reynolds) has bad tone?
His tone is bad
@@JunkdrummerTV in what way? You referring to the notes he plays?
i would love to see you breakdown The Band The Night they Drove Old Dixie down love Levon so much one of the most underrated drummers i think
If you just stick with me in a couple weeks your wish is my command. I'm not guaranteeing which song it'll be but LEVON HELM is my everything!!
I would also ask for some Frank Zappa drummers but I won’t be greedy I’m subscriber now
Frank Zappa is best!!
Love his playing
Awesome work.
you're the man
Thank ya!
I don't know anyone that hates Dave Matthews
React to Carter Beauford playing Crash Into Me live.
I'll definitely be doing another Carter video down the road. Thanks for the view!!
@@JunkdrummerTV You bet. Good job.
Best comment on this whole thing was Dave and the other electric guitar player who’s got terrible tone . Lol .... Tim Reynolds definitely has bad electric tone. Amazing acoustic guitar player though
Do a keith carlock video he makes most of these guys look like freshman jazz band drummers
Just wait till black Friday
Nice Rush poster
Would love to see your critique on Yussef Dayes.
A bit of advice. If you are covering a song you already know, then call it a review instead of a reaction. These days on RUclips, people who use Reactions, really mean First Reaction, but still. It might help with viewers to understand that you already know these songs and these videos are you reviewing them instead of reacting to them.
Noted. I'll eventually be doing drummers I know nothing about but to get my feet under me the first 10 or so will be drummers I'm familiar with. But I am watching videos I've never watched before. I'm hope stick around for the rest of my content.
I'd love for you to check out Blake Richardson of "Between the Buried and Me". There's some great studio footage on youtube.
Please react to drive in drive out by dmb that's my favorite drumming by him
No way they played this song the 3 times you were there. That is what makes it great. I know I'm being an ass here but I am bored this morning.
Im old enough to have saw them in the 90s when they only had 2 or 3 records released
@@JunkdrummerTV enjoyed your video. Watched it 2 times.. Was in foul mood this morning and I took it out on you.
@@JunkdrummerTV the 1st dmb show I saw was 98. The roots, Santana, then Dave. So I'm with ya..
I’ve heard the “herta” referred to as the “Cobham roll”
I actually mentioned he is influenced Carter
Any chance on a Stanley Randolph video?
You tell me who that is and I'll do my best!!
I love DMB!! Have seen them so many times!!!
Are you OK Steve? You seem a little less upbeat than usual. Hope all is well brother!
Haha. Nah. That's just the 2nd video I ever did and was bad at it back then.
@@JunkdrummerTV I realised after I posted that it was a much older video. But happy you're good man
@@joegallagher8234 thank you! I hope you are well too
...Grey Streer, You Never Know
I think Carter's greatness lies in the spaces where he doesnt play. He is just that amazing.
Check out Jon Fishman, my man is a pocket god.
Fishman definitely doesn't get the love he deserves as a drummer but he's self taught and there's things he didn't learn that could have made him a better technical drummer imo. But I love Fishman's playing. I think he has great hands. He's a very dynamic player and knows when to bring it down to a simmer and explode to elevate. He's got all day stamina. There's times when I wonder how he can keep going playing nonstop for 20-30 minutes in a focused jam. He's really creative. There's drum parts I don't know if most other drummers would ever come up with like in Foam, Taste or It's Ice. His unexpected beats to me, are what distinguishes him. I miss his younger fire days but he grooves really well these days.
react to mike fuentes bulls in the bronx pleaseee 😭😭😭😭
You neeed to check out Danny Cary of tool
You need to check out episode 3 on my channel!
Try Drive in drive out
I was just thinking that and then I read this comment haha
The atreyu drummer
