Chad Szeliga I just wanted to thank you! You've been such a huge influence on me, and seeing how you actually take the time and respond to people, and have so many great videos out there to help us drummers that look up to you, I dig you even more!! Thank you so very much for all that you contribute to drumming, and music!! We love you brother!!
@Chad Szeliga you are what turned me from "bleh" to "much better", listening to your polyrhythms and complex patterns really made me pay attention to the dynamics and intricacies in a song, and to focus on the drums as a melodic instrument and not just the rhythm backing. Playing drums has been the key to overcome my Traumatic Brain Injuries sustained in 2 separate blasts in Iraq in 2003 and 2004. My motor-skills, memory, balance and coordination have all improved since I picked up playing again. Thank you for your incredible skills and being able to explain your methods and thoughts on this!
ilhan çimen 0 seconds ago hi chad am back ilhan çimen am love you why you leaved band it is so exciting and ben why ben so sick why he drinks alchocol he energy so fast but he sick but he energy awesome ı listen bb 24 hours right ıf am live america ı can go bb concert
Had it not been for this guy, my drumming would still be in a caveman basis. One of my favorite and most influential drummers of all time, loved and still love with a passion his work with Switched and Breaking benjamin especially. Still re-visit his older BB tutorials and videos, and I'm glad he's still into them and still working his way with them.
You gotta do more stuff like this man. I hope everyone who watches these videos gets something out of this because chad teaches so well. I also want to thank you greatly for everything you've done for me in the past year or so.
Man you have to do more videos! Your drumming has influenced so many and you have motivated me to be a better drummer and person. Thank you for what you do.......on and off the stage. God Bless
I could learn so much from chads drumming style. As a drummer who plays in a progressive band I try to implement different styles of drumming into our work. And it seems that chad does exactly what I want to do with my ground. Being an adaptable artist is not only good from a playing aspect but from a busy schedule aspect
I don't personally know him but were from the same city. His mom is the music teacher at prospect elementary school or she used to be. Its pretty cool.
So happy to see youre still at it, that EP you were on was so awesome to listen to. Cant wait to hear more projects, youre writings one of my favorites.
Jeremy's drumming has gone so unnoticed in the years, exceptionally clever beats and utilizing his pieces to the utmost of his abilities. Glad Chad gave him credit for that. Plus BB's new guy, Shaun Foist, has openly stated he's a huge Chad fan and that's how he got the BB gig actually. Aaron Bruch (current bassist) showed Ben a cover he did on a Chad's BB song on RUclips. There's a great ethos towards the music and the musicians alike which makes my heart sing and I'm proud to be a BB fan
Living in Europe I have never seen BB live. My only chance came late last year when they did one gig in London but I couldn't go unfortunately and actually see things for myself. But I've seen a great deal of BB live videos, plus individual's drum play-throughs and clinics, like here with Chad. Jeremy could really lay down some solid drumming in the early days when they were playing stuff like Home, No games (a personal favorite) or Shallow bay. I don't know what you might've seen, maybe you caught the guy in a bad day at the office, but I'm pretty certain he could turn up in more than one occasion. Also, quantizing wasn't a huge thing 15 years ago so he couldn't have gotten away too much with fixing his mistakes in the studio. Thats only an opinion though
Then Shaun is still pretty young (guess the youngest of them bunch), and yes he's still learning. But he's a professional drummer, his biggest gig might be BB right now but he ain't no rookie. Even great drummer still need to work on their rudiments and all, and are still trying to learn new things or new ways of doing things. He has the potential to work and leave a mark with BB so long he stays focused and hungry to learn and contribute. I wouldn't worry too much about him, he can still pull off some of the more difficult songs live and he doesn't need to play them note-for-note.
I've seen Shaun playing BB covers on RUclips before he joined the band and remember saying myself he was decent. But in no means spectacular. But your word's over mine on that bro since you've seen them live and you know whats up. With all I've seen and heard so far, thats where I base my opinion on. Then I guess we both agree on the fact he's got all the time and room he needs to improve though, and thats always a positive in my eyes.
Years has passed and Chad is still a great composer for drums. Timeless great drums that match withe the music with groove and tons of personality. Not easy to make producers enjoy those detailed drumming. I think sometimes that Dave abruzesse was out of PJ because of his detailed drumming. Not so "grungy"
Guitarist : play riffs, can't help himself to headbang and firing the stage Chad : stops playing and continue to give lessons to audience Guitarist : .....
hi chad am back ilhan çimen am love you why you leaved band it is so exciting and ben why ben so sick why he drinks alchocol he energy so fast but he sick but he energy awesome ı listen bb 24 hours right ıf am live america ı can go bb concert
The drumming in this song is what initially hooked me to the song, and I think is BB's best tune.
Great work, dude.
Hi Nicolas...I'm so honored that you enjoy my drumming. I will hopefully have some videos soon for you to see. GOD BLESS!!!!

Amazing drummer and super kind friend!
Greetings!!! Chad u forgot the elbow mute to the hi hat like in the music video, thats my favorite part!!!
You are one of my favorite drummers. Like I'm not really a fan of breaking benjamin but listening to your drum makes it worth listening to.
The guitarist is playing breaking benjamin riffs and wearing a nothing more t-shirt. My man!
Thank you!
This made me so happy
se existe futebol arte,
se existe o bulling arte
existe o drum arte e o criador é o Chad , como é bonito ver esse cara tocar!!monstro!!
+Chad Szlegia you are my favorite drummer
Phenomenal!!!
That ride bell is lovely
his grooves is really complex man.
The guitar player is really feeling it
There is no way you can't feel that amazing riff :D
I definitely was. Easy when you've Chad's pocket behind you.
@@MaxBorasMusicyou nailed it bro 👏
@@djposcani8773 Thank you!
Did he show how to play "Breath" in this show?
Maybe Breaking Benjamins new Drummer should take lessons from you because you were there best drummer by far

Nothing on the new album is there a new Drummer the drums were already laid down beforehand

Ngl, I really miss Chad in BB.

Just memorizing the beat is already really hard.

After watching this i see how bad i suck
Great drummer between him ,incubus, covers my needs
Tama instead of DW. Hmmm
They weren't taking care of my teach like they should have. DW = uses you for your status and that's it.
@@wdrumz Tama rules. DW overrated.
y no dw
"Crawl, then walk" I think he's telling parents to make their kids learn "Crawl" before they even walk.
Did you switch to Tama???
