You know, it's kinda weird to watch Christy, a guy who cracks me up almost on a daily basis on the Stern show, play drums in such a professional manner, I mean his talent is endless, he is such a likeable guy, obviously my faaaaavorite
Something a little ironic- Gene Hoglan and Richard Christy were both in death, Both use sabian cymbals, Both wear bigass boots to play and both play with ankle weights
Pleaseeee upload drum cover tracks for sound of perseverance record !! You guys fucking ruled on for that one ! But plzz huge fan man ! And also fragile art of existence! Well love to see drum clips ! Cheers from Long Beach
I'm gonna start following richard a little more now. Didn't know you were a drummer till recently on the show. Great Lars interview and don't mind Howard's comments.. :-\
lol Charred Walla Of The Damned? Is that name from the tradio prank call when Sal and Richard got scolded on air and they said they'd rather see them be in heaven than in hell, scaping their nails into the charred walls of the damned?
Amazing drummer. Really top of the heap. Ads so much to every song he plays. Check out "South of Heaven" on Talking Metal, when they go into the verse and he ads the double kick, whoa!
@behemoth056 Yeah. Richard Christy has played for some of the best metal bands ever including DEATH and Iced Earth. He gave up life on the road to go work for Howard back in the mid 2000's. But he has a new band now.
@antonio610 I doubt it he would, in an interview he said once, that playing drums is fun for him, but not heavy touring, which DT does, he's a low profile drummer on a level of Bobby Jarzombek I'd say, but enjoys all sorts of stuff, not strictly making music and touring
So proud of my Grandson Rusty............
He's the one who played drums on "The sound of perseverance" and following tour, respect!
Tim Sabian Cymbals!!!!! lol 2:43
richard christy's my faaavorite...
You're the best Ethel.
this kit's my faaaaaaaaaaavorite
Who also thinks that the tone of the drums perfectly fits the 'Sound of Perseverance' album art cover?*
Richard, you are the man, thanks for all the great music and comedy!
Richard and Sal!!! You guys rock!!!
I bloody love Richard, probably the best metal drummer around.
Beautiful kit Rich, you play it well
This guy is one of the best drummers in the business.
my drum hero !!
You know, it's kinda weird to watch Christy, a guy who cracks me up almost on a daily basis on the Stern show, play drums in such a professional manner, I mean his talent is endless, he is such a likeable guy, obviously my faaaaavorite
Killer drumming Richard! And yes Vater and Aquarian all the way
Fkn love Richard. Wish I was born around his time and had of formed a band with him
One of my favorite people on Howard Stern, and also an amazing drummer. Love this guy!
I'm a big cymbal guy too. 5 piece kit with 3 crashes, 2 splashes, efx cymbal, ride, hats, and a bell. All Zildjian.
Richard is bad ass on the drums.
Richard Christy is god
Rock on Dude!
Much success........

Something a little ironic- Gene Hoglan and Richard Christy were both in death, Both use sabian cymbals, Both wear bigass boots to play and both play with ankle weights
Richard is an amazing drummer; he's my faaaaaavorite.
This drum set is my faaavorite.
my favorite drummer !!
I would murder too see drum cam footage of you playing Death. You were a part of true metal greatness
You've probably found it by now but have you seen the live videos of Death at Dynamo? Richard plays there.
That is kick ass Rich

Legend man

@Goodz81
Richard is my faaaaaavorrrrrrite. Sal is my faaaavorrrrrrite too! They're both my favvvvvorrrites.
Chuck + Richard = Perfect ( CONTROL DENIED )

Drums at start frightened the shite out of me
Richard Christy is most likely one of the greatest human beings that ever existed.

Mad skills from a mad man. Heeeeeeeyyyyy!
Pleaseeee upload drum cover tracks for sound of perseverance record !! You guys fucking ruled on for that one ! But plzz huge fan man ! And also fragile art of existence! Well love to see drum clips ! Cheers from Long Beach

"I loveeeeeeee, Hallo-weeeeeeeen"
Hail Christy! Hail Death! Control Denied! Hail Iced Earth! Hail Charred Walls of the Damned!
I'm gonna start following richard a little more now. Didn't know you were a drummer till recently on the show. Great Lars interview and don't mind Howard's comments.. :-\
drumming is the best sport. i have a black belt in drumming.
"The Sherminator" from The American Pie movies always reminds me of Richard Christy for some reason lol. They look just a tad bit similar.
i have that exact same hat
who knew my dad can be a sick ass metal drummer lol
lol Charred Walla Of The Damned? Is that name from the tradio prank call when Sal and Richard got scolded on air and they said they'd rather see them be in heaven than in hell, scaping their nails into the charred walls of the damned?

WHO'S HIGH PITCH?
i dont like how he shrunk his drumkit but i understand why he did it. setting up your own kit is a pain in the ass
4 people are Lars Ulrich.
@behemoth056 Yeah. Richard Christy has played for some of the best metal bands ever including DEATH and Iced Earth. He gave up life on the road to go work for Howard back in the mid 2000's. But he has a new band now.
@drumblaster666 blake richardson and moe carlson should be added to the watch-for list. mindblowing stuff from really young dudes
@tomodrum a little bit of the making of the album, some of richards pet duck haha, and a drumming video to ghost town.
@mrpicky510 why is it weird? didnt you know him before the howard stern show. this dude has been jamming for a long time with death, iced earth etc
Awsome drummer. I would like to jam with him
@Deth43 He used to use a old set of Ludwig Vistalites and a DW set a long time ago
Kick Fuckn Ass Bro! Loved It!
@Goodz81
richard you cant have more than one favorite.
man rustys a good drummer
Fuck yeah
Ричард Кристи- Чак Шульдинер - лучше , талантливее просто нет и не будет!
Це дійсно 100 % хоча і Хогланд і Портной і ще є пару драмерів
@tomodrum no problem:)
@behemoth056 haha yeah.
Love this guy.
How long has Richard been using aquarian drumheads
of course as i'm watching a freakin earthquake hits Virginia 5.9... It's all Christy's double bass!
If he's still got the skills and creativity from The Sound of Perseverance, I would shit my pants if he joined Dream Theater.
Richard, can you please play big cat little cat?
Heyyy
Richard, this is your father
@grummangoose i noticed that too he looks a lot thinner
@ToricoUK i would say george kolias ,but christy gives me isnspiration to play drums.he is so cool
The intro sounds like a metal cover of ''Sexy and I know it''.
@Goodz81
yahhhhhhhhh
@antonio610 I doubt it he would, in an interview he said once, that playing drums is fun for him, but not heavy touring, which DT does, he's a low profile drummer on a level of Bobby Jarzombek I'd say, but enjoys all sorts of stuff, not strictly making music and touring
