I'd love to see him perform "Readymade". The beat for the verses is awesome! Locks into the bass groove then, reverses the pattern on the back half of the phrase. Sweet stuff!
This song is the best concert opener of all time. Every time I see the Chili’s live and they open with this track the whole place feels electric and everyone is immediately 100% in it
@@bonkusmaximus nah. I've seen them 25 times and i've never seen a crowd as hyped as when they opened with sandman, at any show (taylor swift included with her hysterical fanbase)
Phenomenal. RHCP are truly a supergroup. Chad, Flea, John... and say whatever the hell you want about Anthony's lack of vocal range or whatever else ... there's NO ONE BETTER to front the band. Appreciate them while they're still doing it, folks.
Why would you even bring that shit up and reference idiots on a video and full day celebrating Chad Smith?? Does it make you feel important? He was never "supposed" to be some accomplished vocalist. Half the time he's rapping. All the MORONS can't comprehend no auto tune. Ever hear this huge money makers? Katie Perry? Taylor? How about Freddie live? PfFFFT. He had to have the audience sing most of his verses. And there would never be any better FIT for this band. HIs tone is so recognizable and rhythmically perfect Yes he's a phenomenal front man and lets not forget wrote all their fvcking songs, FFS. No go watch Chris Cornell being a crap shoot live.
I was working in a rehearsal studio and the Peppers were in there for about a month. Every day, Chad, Flea and John would just jam for an hour or so before Rick Rubin and Anthony got there. It was unreal, like Hendrix with Bonham and Jaco for a rhythm section. John sang a bunch. Some of the best live music I've heard and it never saw the light of day. Same with STP. They'd jam for hours before Weiland showed up. Another great band with a powerhouse in the back.
Really love the way Chad treats the recorded studio drum parts. They’re the basis of the song for radio, but when switched to a live setting it means nothing. It’s a jumping off point for him to jam, while still maintaining the hardest of grooves. You know what it usually sounds like, you’ve heard it a thousand times, so here it is with 4 times the energy. The guys sense of fun behind a kit is infectious. Love it.
It was brilliant to be able to watch him fill in those spaces that are always left open in the song. Just flowing with a track he's super familiar with. Perfect setting for that kind of fun. What a treat
The story on that is he wants the recorded drum parts to be more like his live parts, but Rick Rubin isn't a fan of it and tells him, 'Oh, that's great. Use it in the live performances.' They joke about it in a podcast
I watched this man play this exact song as they opened the concert last saturday (2 days ago) less than 200ft/60m from me. It's impressive how they still sound as good as they did 20 years ago
I went and saw RHCP live in Noblesville, Indiana last month. I regret not paying more attention to Chad Smith. This man is amazing. If they tour again in my area, i wont make that mistake again
One day I'll show this to my kids and tell them they can now learn how to drum the best song in the world with the Legend himself playing! Thank you Chad and Drumeo 🙌🏻
Watched his 30 Seconds to Mars vid a couple weeks ago and just watched Flea on Hot Ones. These dudes just really seem to love music. Both seem fairly down to Earth, too. Really makes me appreciate them that much more.
I’ve seen plenty of different performers before some of the top rappers live but nothing comes close to how good the Red Hot Chili Peppers were when I saw them they sounded exactly how they do on there record it was amazing they even had a encore and a bunch of people ran back and watched them for another 30 minutes everyone was lighting their lighters I’ll never forget how I felt
I love drummers doing their craft… my roommate in college was a drummer and made loops and stuff all the time. Nothing more relaxing than just watching them create in their zone.
@@copache weird, sloppy hi hat, odd pausings when getting ready for multiple crashes, intensely fast and precise fills, switching hands, bass drum matching lead vocals, offbeat snare and hit hat opens, and very relaxed ghost notes that almost feel like triplets. Those are most of the nuances I could pick up on
It's such a treat to watch him play.. I always admired talent and passion combined towards instrumentation in music. I hope my metalcore edits will make more people love good music.
Comment bump!! Love these videos with Chad too, but the "drummer improvises drums for a song they've never heard" series is SO funnnn. Always down for more of those❤
Let’s limit the creative direction of the channel into one video idea and then once it becomes stale and tired get irritated that they only do one thing
They put out such a fun and killer vibe. I think everybody can relate to this song at some point in their lives that’s why it’s such a jam to the people that love it.
This has always been my favorite Chili Peppers song! The buildup at the beginning is one of the most electric opening I've ever heard! Its gets you PUMPED, and the rest doesnt disappoint!
My 2 year old is getting a drum set this Christmas because of Chad Smiths drumeo videos! He will sit there for an hour just watching. He’s a huge fan 🤘🏻🎸
Amazing cover-AND NO KEYS! Great job especially the guitarist. Curious which pickup he’s using, can’t quite tell. Love how he blends chords with the hook on the chorus.
With the passing of Neal Peart (3 years ago now?), it's not a stretch at all to say that Chad Smith is the greatest drummer on the planet. The guy is a genius and he makes it look effortless.
He was actually mimicking how the audience goes crazy when that part comes up, as the Chili Peppers usually open their concerts with Can't Stop and that riff is when Anthony comes on stage and starts singing.
I've noticed with a lot of their songs, he doesn't use the ride in the chorus's. Heck, in this song he never uses the ride outside of as an occasional crash.
Sólo escuchando la pista de batería de los temas de Blood Sugar Sex Magik alcanza para reconocer las canciones, ni siquiera necesitas las pistas del resto de los instrumentos. Eso te dice el rol que juega la bata en el sonido de la banda.

@@krissolson7043either that or he wore the same tshirt for a month or 2……
I am convinced that Drumeo has been trying to remove Chad from the studio for weeks, but he just won't leave
And I am convinced that they kidnapped my guy.
legend says hes still playing
I am convinced that they filmed him months ago and then cut it into pieces to make more 💰💰💰

He broke Drumeo😂 there’s no point to watch because no one can repeat what he did.

No one amps the energy like Anthony
Anthony Kiedis most under rated vocalist ever, his vocals on the by the way and BSSM albums are so good
Focusing on Kiedis' vocal range is the music equivalent of focusing on brush strokes rather than the finished painting.

Anthony can write. His lyrics are on levels as high as Hoon, Ferrell, Patton, and Fallon.
I never realized how much I wanted to see drummers jamming to their own songs.
Another video comparable to this is the one with Dave Grohl playing the drums for "Smells Like Teen Spirit" live
“Under the Table and Drumming” was one of the greatest things I ever watched. Drumeo is slowly bringing me more of that feeling.
Up
Matt Garstka playing Woven Web at Drumeo is one of greats, definitely recommend :D
@@jorgemiguelmilano1535i am going to watch this now hahaha
The coolest thing is that you can obviously see how much fun he has playing the drum even though he has done this probably 1000 times before.
He’s been playing this song for decades and he still has joy playing it 🥰
Nah this is one of those 'first reaction' videos. He's never heard this before, that's just how good he is.

Chad Smith is one of those rare musicians where the hype surrounding him is 100% justified
Legit one of the best man, his consistency, enthusiasm and energy is unmatched and legendary!!
Same with John Frusciante
Dude is born to be a drummer
@@kefs123I would beg to differ
Most Musicians hype is justified.
Maybe you talk about pseudo artist that play with music.
Married to a drummer of 50 years and I love to see drummers play..Chad Smith's energy is contagious ❤❤
I could watch this guy forever. No joke. Never gets old. I don’t even play drums or have a kit. I’m a guitarist! 😂🤷🏼♀️
Same
Ditto
Seriously makes me wana play drums but I know I couldn’t ever do this lol
Same here! Haha
@@TwimsFan do it if you have the time/the money man!! was one the best decisions of my life
The crescendo at the beggining of the song is what comes to my mind when I think about how a perfect crescendo should be

RHCP and STP. What a combo
No way
Sure, I'm not jealous.
He's actually not praised enough. Once you see him live you see how essential he is To the band
Chad is just the coolest guy ever. You cant help but smile and jam to him playing the drums..his energy is so infectious 😎
Chads groove is unmatched. You can feel the music.
It's definitely matched lol

It’s not gay if he a legend.
@@binaural189 thanks, you're so right
The intro jams into this song are always absolutely epic
Chad's a monster.
I like that he loves playing the songs, he still has that drive on point 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
He is the definition of a true musician. Still has the same passion he did when he first started
I watched this man play this exact song as they opened the concert last saturday (2 days ago) less than 200ft/60m from me. It's impressive how they still sound as good as they did 20 years ago
The light pulsing of the left foot on the hi hat stand is a major factor of how he gets that unique hat sound on every chilis track
Good point.
And the reason why most RHCP cover bands make their songs sound stiff and dull.
I started to listen more RHCP after I've watched all the Chad's videos on Drumeo. His energy playing it's insane and contagious
His energy is infectious man 🤘 he's playing with heart with every hit. Amazing
Watching this man play is mesmerizing. How can he be so powerful, but still look so in control and even delicate at times?
cant believe he nailed this on the first take like he did 30 seconds to mars. true talent!
hahhahhhahahhahaha nice one 😁
bro you know its a song from the band he plays with right??
@@blahdy bro you know its a joke right?? ffs
@@kaue7224lol of course I was making joke too...hope you too with your comment 😅

Really impressed with how good Will Ferrell is on the drums.
Such a great feel and groove he has! And his whole vibe and enthusiasm is so captivating and positive!!
Thought is enemy of flow never has drummer clearly thought less and flowed using feel than Chad. He plays like a kid just incredible 😁
Amazing, how easy he's do it. Nothing tension, nothing unnecessary motions, just pleasure for drumming! Coll man!
Here i am trying to mimic every single detail of his studio take, and then he comes and tears it apart, sounding so awesome...
In all fairness he has shown the world he is capable of the studio take. Here he is having fun
You gotta break free from those chains homie
When I practice performing songs live I often watch live versions because a drummer puts so much more life into a performance than the studio version
I went and saw RHCP live in Noblesville, Indiana last month. I regret not paying more attention to Chad Smith. This man is amazing. If they tour again in my area, i wont make that mistake again
One day I'll show this to my kids and tell them they can now learn how to drum the best song in the world with the Legend himself playing! Thank you Chad and Drumeo 🙌🏻
I have never drummed in my life but I LOVE your videos. Just know you are inspiring people way outside your target audience. 😊
Obviously Chad is a monster on the kit, but his infectious energy is what gets me smiling every time I watch him play!
Creative hi-hat work on the verse! The cymbal is so loose yet the rythm holds it nicely. Not a big fan of open hi-hat myself but he nails it here.
The Chad Smith videos have been my favorites. He just has so much fun and enjoys it, and it really shines through.
Watched his 30 Seconds to Mars vid a couple weeks ago and just watched Flea on Hot Ones. These dudes just really seem to love music. Both seem fairly down to Earth, too. Really makes me appreciate them that much more.
He finally gets the so well deserved higher attention and recognition. Go Chad! Forever my favourite drummer ❤

There is such an energy when this guy plays. Truly phenomenal.
