As a person who doesnt use english daily, I always love the way you tell and pronounce words. Its very clear and easy to understand. As I love your entire video, the editing is mad creative. I think youre gonna be "someone" 💪🏻
You always have a good insight on what's to come for aspiring drummers, and it's very healthy and beneficial to the community as a whole! Always a great content indeed!
Headspace is absolutely the most important, at least in my opinion. I play at a fairly large church, and there have been times I’ve showed up super nervous and worried about playing poorly. Surprise surprise, with that mindset the whole set seemed bad. Yet if I come in the next week with a positive attitude, expecting to have fun and play well, I could have an identical set to the last one and feel great afterwards. Positivity, boys.
Gabe I have been playing the drums alone in my house for the past ten years. I am no longer satisfied with this type of playing and I am beginning to reach out to other musicians and get out of the house to jam. Shit is starting to get real. I auditioned for a Weezer tribute band and it went fantastic! I'm about a month into rehearsing with them and the bass player invited me to play with his other band that covers 90's alternative rock! I can't believe how doors have begun to swing open for me. I am having so much fun! I cannot thank you enough for putting together videos for the up and coming. I really appreciate your videos they are very helpful and you are an amazing drummer! I am looking forward to performing live but I'm also scared to death. I know everything will be ok, I play from my heart, it's like an itch that I cannot avoid scratching. Such a fun journey and I cannot thank you enough for all your help. Just seeing you document your journey has given me so much hope. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Great video and tips. No matter how many times I go on stage I get nervous. Never fails. But 15 seconds into the first song it all goes away like it was meant to be. ❤️
I've only been playing for 1 year and couple months but I worked hard and now i play for my church every sunday and learn new songs every week I might be more advanced than usual for people playing as little time as I have but I still have a lot to learn so thank u for this
It’s insane how no matter how much i have played, the anxiety is super intense untill the first song starts. Then right after i start playing. it all disappears. Gets me every time 😫😆
Thank you for the tips Gabe! I've played a good amount of shows myself and going back to the basics and touching on the key points you brought up are crucial! Thank you!!!
Hey Gabe .. been following your channel for years brother ... I always learn some new stuff from you .. thanks for taking the time to keep posting even whilst you are on the road ... Rock on brother ..
Wow. You came out with this right as I became a church drummer. I'm 14 and have stage fright and it messes me up alot. I couldn't find anything that helps. Think you for making this
Bro, as usual, killer video. Crushing it with the dope content, my friend!!! I love that you put charting out the songs as the first thing. I totally undervalued how important that was when I first started out. One thing I always try to talk to my students about is "serve the music". You definitely hit on all the things, bro! 👊🤘👌
Gabe great video. Many thanks. I might be playing with some new musicians this coming Sunday in kind of an audition. While we will just be jamming with no set list yet these tips will greatly help me. Keep up the great work.
Dude.. i was going to see you perform today live in the Netherlands.. too bad everything got cancelled.. hopefully there will be another time to meet you and the rest of the band!
4:46 STUCK IN YOUR HEAD!!!!!! I love that song!!!!! Btw, thanks for the guide! Bec, im gonna audition for the church soon so I can really use this to prepare and on stage!
Gabe I could totally relate with you as I am a part of my school band and I usually stretch out before the performances although people tell me that what I'm doing is stupid I tell them that being a drummer is being a whole lot different as we have to use our whole body and great video bro
thanks for video bro. in a video shoot today and tomorrow and first little bit felt stiffer and then loosened up as the playing sessions went on. Playing externally takes a bit getting used to. I kinda consider incorporating head bob or head movement is like adding a 5th limb. I don't move my head much when i play but the director was asking for more and eventually got more comfortable with it. All in all solid day though. Thanks for the tips, gonna use as aid for tomorrow. Cheers!
update it went amazing tonight! Some really really great shots. Thanks again for the tips, came in handy to help me regroup heading into another performance day. Cheers buds
Good Morning! Basic question here. What is the terminology when (in music or a song) the "1" or "down beat switches to the "3"? (eg) 1' 2 3 4, 1' 2 3 4, 1' 2, 1' 2 3 4, 1' 2 3 4 ..... Thanks
I wanna share my first stage performance to you guys! It wasn't the best experience but it's fair enough for a start It's a contest at school called "Battle of the bands" then my school borrowed a drum set at a church soo i used it but it doesn't have a drum rug or even a carpet so throughout the song it keeps going away from me which is bad but it's not too bad for me soo the first mistake i made is i didn't look soo happy while playing that time, the thing is i'm soo focused and i'm looking around to the audience and my bandmates but i forgot to smile and feel the music i'm just too focused on my drumming but the results are good! I did it not perfectly but i didn't lose my timing and also the bassist and just like that we won! Thanks to GOD for giving me the opportunity! I wish these opportunities just keep going to my life!
Well done brother ... And from now on keep remembering that you smashed it at that gig without a your own gear.... Just imagine how great you will be next time with all your own kit to play on ... You will rock the roof off ....👍
@@Ticonderous1 thanks me and my bandmates wanna start saving money to buy one The funny thing is before that performance i just practice with a cajon and the last time i played drums was 3 years ago but i still remember how to play it
Most importantly, remain humble by playing with your shirt off and showing your ripped body (If you happen to have one, which you do). ;-) Just kidding... (or am I?)! Love your videos...great stuff and informative, well presented and shot!

All things that I learned it because of you.. I've been you fans, I always love watching your videos again and again... From Philippines
This has helped me alot, my first performance with my band is today and i was terrified. I still am a tiny bit but this video helped so much
I've only been playing for 1 year and couple months but I worked hard and now i play for my church every sunday and learn new songs every week I might be more advanced than usual for people playing as little time as I have but I still have a lot to learn so thank u for this

Another good tip for those who are nervous about drop a stick is that hand-dry lotions. Here in Brazil it is very common. Hope it Helps!!!

The funny thing is before that performance i just practice with a cajon and the last time i played drums was 3 years ago but i still remember how to play it
Any chance on I Prevail signature sticks hitting the market?
Funny thing is , the very first time i played live i forgot the extension to my double bass at home . gave me anxiety bf i even started 😄
Ooo I might need that later in life!!
Hopefully
Heck yes!
Can you make a cymbal Guide please, because im looking to buy a cheep cymbal under 50$ and actually, I dont know which...
Can you make a video on how to tune ur drums? I wanted to make a drum cover but i think i fucked up my tuning, please help any way if you can :(
Hey bro! Please make the video on how to make drum beats for my own song!
which is the remo tuning key that your using
I've always wondered about the brand of your orange sparkle kit...are they ayotte?
Yup!
Nice drum tuning, probs teach us to tone muscles. Hehe
Hi can u do a review video on aerodrums
Hey bro what should u do if ur hands get wet because ur nervous
Super ⚡️🙏🏼
Awh.. This video is just a week to late😄 I drummed on stage for the first time a week ago. I still used your tips from older vids tho :)
That’s awesome! I hope it went well!!
How do u play w/ only the metronome? I need to hear the words which cue me to where I am at in the song. I am completely lost without the words.
I am a professional editor and I would love to edit your videos, but I live in california.
cool
Most importantly, remain humble by playing with your shirt off and showing your ripped body (If you happen to have one, which you do). ;-) Just kidding... (or am I?)! Love your videos...great stuff and informative, well presented and shot!
Got my first gig next week scared as hell 😞
🎉
This Is good but is good as dota 2??
Ehm can you do more live drum videos?
Definitely!
I'm auditioning for America's Got Talent
I dont even know how to play drums and i watched the entire thing
why are your rims so damn high? like how do you get a rimshot when your rims are like an inch high?
1) They're wooden rims, not meant for rimshots.
2) Who does a rim shot on toms anyway?
3) The snare has a normal metal hoop.
Hey, I'm early
Heck yes 🤘🏽
No stick tricks???? 0/10
