I'm not crying, you're crying 🥹 tugs on the ol' heart strings seeing him (lightly) throw down on some PANTERA. Its a d*mn shame there is no true drum-cam video of his PANTERA days. Much love for the Abbott brothers, RIP to their Pop too
Vinnie may be the best, most nuanced, skilled and tasteful drummers to ever play in this heavy genre. Man had jazz sensibilities on FF. But you know he could dial it down dynamically and swing like money in a tree. RIP LEGEND
Eloy Casagrande hits MUCH harder than Vinny Paul. Dave Culross hits just as hard, yet he plays WAY faster! There are plenty of others who play a hard, or harder, as well. How do I know? I've been playing for 30 years, and I hit hard as hell while playing deathmetal most of the time. And yes, I have done plenty. I've played hundreds of shows and drummed on 5 albums as either a member, or as a session drummer. You fan boys just turn a blind eye to everything when it comes to anyone other than who you have a hard on for.
They're not backwards, he's sticks were always the same at the bottom and top, top of stick wide as the bottom for a massive sound i suppose.. Great drummer
@@PrcBox13around 11 minutes, 55 seconds. You can see him put the sticks down and you can tell that they're regular sticks little heads on them. I do know the sticks you're referring to though.
@@robbymayer5987yeah, you're right.. but as far as I know, he always played like that, from Pantera days . But I always thought he had his custom sticks, but now you found here that it's normal sticks turned upside.. But he always did that
I rekon the photo of vinnie in the cd booklet for Vugar Display of Power he has em upside down, although hard to tell as his hands are hiding the ends of sticks.
What world do you live on? He is not underrated. He is understood to have been formidable. Can we please stop with this underinformed notion of "most underrated."
@@DA-tj9fb stfu , he was known as a solid drummer that's fair but the guy never recieved the accolades most got who weren't even as close to vinnie . Regardless of what you might think . He was underrated .
@@hanginon1293 okie doke bud .. not at all weird that im being argued with for saying he could have been recognised more for his achievement's ..... fan boys
Those mics are a pain in the ass!! Vinny was smacking his chest, and walloping the damn Mic to streads!!! Vinny said Jesus Christ well shitt!! Total Vinny Paul moment!!
Video Bob, please talk Bobby Tongs and Slitzy into making youtube channels with their archives. All that SlipKnoT, Type O Negative and PanterA footage can't be lost to history.
Bonham played a 14" for his rack tom and a 16" and 18" on the floor. Vinnie used a 15 instead of a 14. Pretty much the same thing just two up and one down as opposed to Bonham's one up and two down.
I'm not sure I could listen to another drummer and instantly recognise the song they are playing without any backing. RIP Vinnie. Probably an unpopular opinion but being a Pantera fan from nearly 35 years ago, I think it's disgraceful what Phil and Rex have done. Was against it when they claimed it was just a tribute, given how many times post Dimebags death Vinnie knocked them back with Zakk filling in. Now it's morphing and I wouldn't be surprised if they try to release new music under 'Pantera'.
I mean Rita personally had say, she, and we as fans know, especially after being a 21 year old and never having the genuine chance to see full Pantera live, she knew If dime and or Vin could have a say in what they wanted without any bias or grief, they’d want fans like me (top 500 fans on Apple Music) to experience their music live with their current lineup as a tribute. Just to get the chance. We’re egotistical fucks while alive, I’d have vins opinion in daily life if I lost my little brother. But with no ego involved, I’d want my brothers legacy spread like wildfire.
The theory is you get a deeper sound out of your drums and more of a powerful hit playing with the butt ends of the sticks.. drummers who played with their sticks upside down Dave Grohl, Bill Ward, Neil Peart in the early years of Rush, Vinnie Appice as mentioned by the other guy and Carmine Appice, John Bonham in the early days of Zeppelin.. Mike Portnoy always plays with his snare stick upside down, but he plays his cymbal stick the correct way because you get more definition and ping out of your cymbals using the tip of your stick the correct way compared to the butt end. That's the way I personally hold my sticks when I play drums like Portnoy.
@@metalgaming420 no I appreciate that the recording is poor but i just kinda like the sound of the drums, but then again I am a Metallica fan so what do i know about good drum sounds hey😄
Yes. His big 1980s power toms with squared dimensions are so goofy. I read he either played 14x14, 15x15 and sometimes 16x16 racks? His rack toms are like the same size as my floor toms and his kit sounded like crap.
He did use them backwards. I'm the lucky owner of one that I got at a show after they did an encore with Cowboys from Hell. He only used them for one song. It was his snare stick, you can tell by all the perfect rimshots. He also had his tech cut a diamond pattern into the part he held onto for better grip.
Hey, im here in video internet land, and i was thinking,....thats vinnie Paul right , on the big screen. Im damn straight it is! And hes on fiiireeeee. Thats right, inwas watchin vinnie Paul, of Pantera, rebel meets rebel, damageplan and hell yea. And hes here to tell me sbout ddrums..all the d drums, not the Ddrum family but either way, he had more things comin to next year, fuck...he fucked it up
I still cant believe how half fast d drum did this promo with Vinnie not a single mic on the kit horrible lighting and horrible sound i remember watching this vids years ago and going damn d drums sound like shit lol
A drummer knows how an unmicrophoned / raw drum sound like, you hear it in your rehearsal room and its not that monster sound you hear on a CD. So hearing this raw sound makes us have a pretty good idea of a drum sound, different from a fully processed shit. I think that was the point
@cern999 Yaman. I've drummed for 32 years. All through high school, jazz band. Have a dw 7 piece with Remo weatherheads and I'm ocd with the sound. To me those toms and snares are incredibly out of tune. It's like nails on a chalkboard to listen too. Bit he may have them tunes loose like that to make the sound "carry" longer. It may be a sound Pantera was going for from their musical approach.
Man, I love Vinny Paul. Hes not the most technical guy but hes funky as a dog. Super out of place for the scene he was involced with. Pantera was always groovy on the down low. Not gonna lie tho that snare sound is horrible.
His big 1980s power toms with squared dimensions are so goofy. I read he either played 14x14, 15x15 and sometimes 16x16 racks? His rack toms are like the same size as my floor toms and his kit sounded like crap.
I mean.. this was like almost 20 years ago, is filmed with a potato and what we're hearing is the raw audio. So of course it sounds like ass. The kit sounds like ass. But his playing? Phenomenal.
What a cool dude. Its so sad just how off and kimda bitter he seemed after dimes murder. Who could blame him....its easyier tho to remember whne they where noth young just kickin ass. Its sad the trip was so short. Those 2 jad alot more fuel in the tank for sure
bitter? he kind of had a right to be. When your former singer ditches you and your brother..trashes you in the media for years. You form a new band and defend themselves.. then he wishes violence against your brother. A week later your best friend/blood brother is shot dead in front of you. How would you feel? I would tell anselmo to fuck off for life too. And its not like he talked about phil often.. which he didnt. Maybe around 2005-2007..but after he got into hellyeah he hardly even spoke about the guy. He moved on. The fans make it seem like he was more bitter than he was... but if he was bitter.. He had every single right to be.
I remember when I could play becoming & the primal concrete sledge polyrhythm my first time sitting down on a kit. Lmfao Vinnie was the tightest LIVE drummer I've ever seen he was more machine than man not too many human metronomes out there. Plenty of live pantera footage to verify. Your goofy comment did give me a laugh props
This is when we need some censorship. Can we please please please reduce the cymbals and cut the reverb? This is like listening to the inside of a tuna melt.
This is how ALL drums sound live. Washed-out cymbals, booming toms and snares that crack. Did you honestly think drums sound anything like a mic’d up and eq’d recording? What a joke.
Dear Lord not another one. This man was literally a human metronome live. What other drummer can lay down the exact same notes as on the record PERFECT live night after night shit faced. Where is he off time? We're waiting 🤡

What a Legend! I always loved that he played his sticks upside-down for the most power possible!!
Vinnie may be the best, most nuanced, skilled and tasteful drummers to ever play in this heavy genre.
Man had jazz sensibilities on FF. But you know he could dial it down dynamically and swing like money in a tree. RIP LEGEND
I could sit and listen to him and neil all day!! Miss hearing both of them live
"I don't wanna stop".
You haven't, Vince.
Vinnie Paul: THE, Primal Concrete Sledge, himself! 🔥
Miss you, Vinn.
I love the raw room sound. Reminds me of deafening jam room days!!
I'm bored now of drums not sounding like drums,even guys set up in their bedrooms are fully miked up
No it doesnt
This is so great! I always wanted to see more from that promo. RIP
Whys that?
he loved to swing while playing heave music!!!! love him! in the heavy music he is the first for me! never forgotten!!!!!!!!!

This is great seeing Vinnie Paul up and close playing some of his best drumming and all Pantera here!
He had some really great beat ideas this footage is awesome !
Rip Vinnie, Dime and Jerry Abbott. Such a great and talented family.
What a power n groove monster another calf of steel warrior,, RIP Vinnie
Met him once. Super nice guy. He’s the first drummer to use Tom’s as a riff as far as I know. Vinny makes everything better 😉👍🏻
Such groove and the power, the power is something else.
Nobody hit harder then Vinnie Paul!
No clue how you found this video, but thank you.

Such a beast 🤘🥃🤘
Vinnie was a big inspiration on me as a drummer
Thanks for sharing it. There aren't many close videos of Vinnie playing Pantera songs.
Been wanting this for so long
Awesome to see this view of him playing the bass drum pattern for Becoming.
Yep. So clean and groovy 🔥
Thanks for posting this!👍 was great to see Vinnie in the throes of his thinking process.
His double bass is soooo powerful 💪🏻💪🏻
Bring to life vinnie paul
Getcha pull brother
Oh no Vinny’s kit is fucking amazing!! Best sounding kit and drummer I’ve ever seen and heard!!!😁😁🤘🤘🤘🤘
he has so perfect touch
I have a harder time eating a bowl of cereal than Vinnie does beating out those grooves.
Such great feel
What a god damn animal... We miss you old kid! Rock on forever

Vinny Appice does the same thing. Holds small end.
Besides being a powerhouse drummer, Vinnie Paul had creativity and compositional skills that made Pantera’s transitions smooth.
Him and Dime Chemistry was unmatched, the only band who had a similar chemistry was Megadeth during the RIP era
Someone make a looping video of him playing.
Rip Vinnie Paul 🙏
Shattered, insane drumming by Vin

I love Vinnie Paul kit of ddrum 5:36
The master !!! period !!
Vinny was a bad ass. Last time i seen him live was with Hell Yeah . Great concert. My guy used tree trunks for sticks. Lol
Reminds me of the old practice space days!
the difference between warming up and recording :D!
joder , claro , te same with yamming
Those mics are a pain in the ass!! Vinny was smacking his chest, and walloping the damn Mic to streads!!! Vinny said Jesus Christ well shitt!! Total Vinny Paul moment!!

🤣 Vince and those huge drums of his...
Right! I always thought he was using floor toms all around😂 They were massive
26"x26" kicks, shit was insane 🤣
If it's for a promo, why wouldn't they mic his set?
Probably the quietest he’s ever played lol
Met him and dime at their strip club super humble dudes. Was a great night
With flipped sticks. I... feel sorry for those cymbals and drums. :D
Never seen a kit entirely made
Of floor toms?
Bonham played a 14" for his rack tom and a 16" and 18" on the floor. Vinnie used a 15 instead of a 14. Pretty much the same thing just two up and one down as opposed to Bonham's one up and two down.

Why is he holding the drumsticks upside down ??
You can hit harder with the butt end of the stick than the front end of the stick. Vinnie Appice also plays like this

Nicko does the same too
@@bartoszkolacz yea totally forgot about nick
Sat behind him b4 they blew up.
Vince always cool.He could gallop,swing or just assault the bass drums.Still makes my hair stand
How TF would you record that floor tom?!?
I heard he was really good on guitar but I can't find any footage to support that.
I'd actually believe tho I've never heard that or saw him ever holding a guitar

Am I the only one who likes the sound of the kit?
@@metalgaming420 no I appreciate that the recording is poor but i just kinda like the sound of the drums, but then again I am a Metallica fan so what do i know about good drum sounds hey😄

It’s the kit. It’s crap.

It’s too hard to give an opinion with this type of recording. It sounds like it was recorded on my iPhone 12 and this video is from 10-12 years ago
Man does he remind me of younger Brother. Same Rolls bandana and everything lol
