People forget about his feet too, especially in his solo he has his high hat going the entire time plus his other leg is constantly keeping a beat as well
@@kgbcorvette I'm sure he's been drunk plenty of other times and didn't have an incident like the one you're referring to. We all have good days and bad days.
The craziest part of this performance is that not only is the rhythm mind blowing. But the accenting on every single drum hit, plus just throwing a few mental fill-ins as well, is sooooo technical. Not many drummers can write this kind of stuff let alone perform it.
what i love is that you mention his timing... he doesn’t play to any kind of click or backing track. if you watch him, you can see throughout the video where he peeks through his setup to catch the eyes of his band mates to check on time and pacing. they’re just that in tune with each other. it’s just amazing to watch. he’s a phenom. if you asked 100 random professional drummers of all genres today who the greatest living drummer is, at least 90 of them would say danny carey.
His fills are so on point, everything he does he makes it look like it's the easiest thing ever. Yet what he is doing 99.99% of drummers in music today can't dream of doing.
Your faces are so expressive and show exactly what this song invokes. Your video is one of my favorite reactions to watch, so much so that I linked it in a video that I made about this song. Keep being beautiful and thanks for letting me share in this experience with you. :) Blessings.
The Octopus satisfies more fans!!!!! He is STUPID good and never fails to amaze. His touch, his attack, his finesse, all on point. I need a nap after watching this video every time, he wears me out. Fun reaction for sure. You 2 are awesome.
Danny has three brains controlling 8 limbs, all independently. He's a big dude, too, like 6'5", and almost 60yo. 😎 And... Danny does not play to a click or music director. Danny IS the click. 🤘 Definitely check out more Tool!
I've watched this track dozens of times, and it never gets old. Drum mastery, at an extraordinarily high level. Btw, your responses to this video are amongst the most honest I've seen. Good job...
Danny Carey is unbelievable but the most impressive thing about this performance was that it was the first time they ever played this song live and it was impeccable. Unreal he's almost 60 in this video and you know where he's playing at by the jersey he's wearing.
Every time I hear this song it's like hearing a time signature(s) from another planet. I think they /he are setting a new standard for excellence and in music.
The greatest artists should always get better as they get older - he would probably tell you even now that he's got more to learn and perfect. That's what separates him from 99.9% of other players - a tireless desire to improve.
I sadly didn't become a Tool fan till more recently especially when their newest record with this song on it came out i gave them a chance and something just clicked they are some of the most talented musicians I've seen the time signatures and sounds they produce are fuckin insane
Welcome. TOOL fans love when folk discover them. They are and have been next level since the 90s but sadly many fans are a bit overzealous and turned off a lot of people who didn't realize they were so special and never gave them a listen.
For most people, watching a drummer do different stuff with each of their lims is spectacular. Being a drummer myself, that's business as usual. But playing different rhythms at the same time, and make it look easy like Danny, it's what's impressive to me.
I am so proud of you Danny Makes my century when TOOL virgins are in a position where they must pay attention. Their views and mindset on what a good band should sound like has just been renewed! LOVE your TOOL!!!
Legit my favorite reaction of this video. As a drummer and a DC fan, I appreciate ya'll not trying to compare him to anyone else out there. Not trying to count his rhythms and beats and whatnot. You heard it for what it was.
Danny ' the octopus' Carey is one of the greatest drummers to have ever lived. Cthulhu once challenged him to a drum duel & lost. Also, as a member of the Tool & Nightwish Army I can say with complete certainty that both armies are just as passionate as each other. Beware though, if you have too many Tool & Nightwish reactions on your channel, that much genius & awesomeness in one place could cause a singularity & destroy the universe. Great reaction as always!
Now that is what you call a master at work. Danny Carey just sets the bar to strataspheric heights just in case anyone had any doubts on who is the best living drummer on the planet. Hey not bad for a 59 year old guy as well.
Yup. This guy is next level for sure. Listen to Pushit, and then listen again. That second solo blew my mind. Found this band in 1992 with Opiate, and was blown away. They just had something that was 'different'.
I have watched many of these videos, and this is, by far, the funnest to watch. Watching their faces said everything. Thank you guys for sharing your reaction.
I love tool. They always raise the bar while encouraging others to follow. It is never a "ha we are better than you!" it is a "Here is our best, you can follow suit."
Living metronome. Maynard states he chose to situate himself further back on stage compared to their earlier performances in the 90’s because he can keep time better with his singing to Carey’s drumming .
There are so many time signatures going on, the sync to bob your head will always be different than everyone else's. I been to a concert and saw that often, just fucking amazing is all I can say.
I loved your reaction. That appreciation for talent is in both of your eyes. Danny Carey is one of those experts who are so proficient that they make the incredibly complex look simple. But there were several time signature changes in this song. More than that was the emotion he was able to envoke with these changes. Perfect fills...not overdone or understated. This has to be one of the most amazing drum performances of all time. That said, I just grabbed everything of yours available on iTunes. Thanks for your contribution to music as well!! New sub.
If you are intrigued by Tool, and would like to see some outrageous “performance art” onstage as well, check out the live video of their song Sober. Maynard James Keenan, the vocalist, in addition to having top tier vocal chops, is also one of the most emotive singers you will see....
One thing that needs to be noted is that Danny is almost 60yrs old.. And he has the energy and precision of most 20yr olds.. Hes simply incredible and a very humble dude. You need to see them live.. I promise you wont be disappointed
This reaction alone got me to subscribe because RUclips knows I love watching this video. Please allow yourself to become Tool Fans. I beg you. Go through the entire discography. Every member is pure talent and to this day not proven to even be from Earth! I kid. But, knowing Danny intimately now will help you hear his work. This guy is a living legend. Although, I’m sick of people comparing him to God. I mean, he’s cool and all, but he’s no Danny Carey! Great reaction! Do more Tool please, I’ll look forward to it.
03:15 get started 5/7 tact speed 05:00 bridge was "crazy" difficulty 06:27 "wow" was djemba (African hand drum ). 09:15 "How his thinging. left hand make rolls (fills).
i have the utmost respect for some of musics greatest drummers. but ive never heard anyone who can play 4 time signatures at once like danny. unbelievable
So the reason of Danny looking so chill while slaying the drum kit is because the whole entire band is into serious meditations. They all are deep into spirituality and opening the third eye.
I saw the first show of their current tour, Eugene, OR 1/10/22. It was a spiritual experience. Danny's drumming was thunderous, to say the least. Halfway through the show, I felt like my chest had been caved in by the sheer force of his drumming. I've been going to concerts for 35 years, & this was by far the best show of my life
Danny Carey is arguably one of the best drummers. It's not out of the realm of possibility that he plays on 2,3 or 4 different time signatures at once. There are songs that Tool does where each one of his limbs are playing different time signatures
Mike Portnoy said this is not a song, it is a mathematical formula. Mike was at Drumeo and had to learn this. Danny is 63 and he has been playing drums since he was 10 Those 50 some years may be why he is so GOOD. Talent!!!! he is a beast!!!! On another channel, I stated that Danny is a robot!!!!!
Yeah absolutely! This is list of my favorite drummers. 1.Matt Garstka (Animals As Leaders) 2.Tomas Haake (Meshuggah 3.Danny Carey (Tool) 4.Mario Duplantier (Gojira) 5.Elliot Hoffman 6.Blake Richardson (Between the Buried and Me 7.Abe Cunningham (Deftones) More honorable mentions: Alex Rudinger and Anup Sastry. Let me know who I left out. 💗👍🏽🙌🏽
I always love to see reactions from other musicians. I know Danny is a good drummer but for me to say so doesn't hold much weight. Seeing other musicians blown away by his skill is something else. I know I'm not explaining this very well but it's the best I can do lol
Danny Carry is an incredible drummer he is in my top 5 favorites along with john "bonzo" bonham from zeppelin and neil peart RIP both and Ian Paice from deep purple
Lost my favorite drummer Neil Peart to cancer this year. Danny is right up there with technical ability. Danny was a huge fan of Neil's and also a friend of his

Omg. “hope they give him a drum solo” was like the greatest thing I’ve heard all day.
I cracked up too!
I just...
.....the whole FI album is a basically drum solo with cameo appearances
Newbies
@@alexfrank6534 Yeah, it's "Danny Carey feat. the other guys from Tool" ;)
And this is why we wait patiently for tool albums
The cold hard truth. I'd rather have zero new tool albums than 6 rushed or heartless ones.
We are happy to take what we can get.
13 years patiently waiting 😁👃🤘
United we wait. And are never disappointed.
Absolutely
His body is doing 8 different things. This is why he is called the octopus.
Nope just the goat. 😂
The Octopus strikes again. Lol
People forget about his feet too, especially in his solo he has his high hat going the entire time plus his other leg is constantly keeping a beat as well
And he's possibly the nicest musician on earth. Straight up legend.
He's always smiling in interviews etc☺️
Needs to be a supergroup with Grohl on Guitar/Vocals, Keanu Reeves on Bass, and Dany Carey on drums. Called the "Good Guys".
@@Hisdudeness9500 Power trio!
Except when he's drunk!!
@@kgbcorvette I'm sure he's been drunk plenty of other times and didn't have an incident like the one you're referring to. We all have good days and bad days.

I love how the synchronous head bopping progresses into confusion and ends in pure admiration.
My favorite part when people do tool reactions. They look lost af!
he is calculating, memory recall. Years of LOVE.
what i love is that you mention his timing... he doesn’t play to any kind of click or backing track. if you watch him, you can see throughout the video where he peeks through his setup to catch the eyes of his band mates to check on time and pacing. they’re just that in tune with each other. it’s just amazing to watch. he’s a phenom. if you asked 100 random professional drummers of all genres today who the greatest living drummer is, at least 90 of them would say danny carey.

Danny’s fills gives me chills. 😂
And 99.9999% can't do even if they can dream about it. :-)
I am a drummer, 22 years of experience. I can't even figure out his time signatures.
Yes, I do
in my dream.
Great pleasure to enjoy this again with you on your first time! I may have seen this around 50-60 times and it is always a pleasure to share the joy
I know a metronome that has a tattoo of Danny Carey
lmao ... Best comment ever!
I know several metronomes that complain about not having a clue what Danny Carey's doing most of the time...
Metronomes hate him for this one simple trick..
Awesome comment.
😂😂😂👍
10:07. Left arm to Danny : Don't worry man just do your thing I got you covered over here
This is literally my comment on the actual video, almost verbatim.
Feet: wake me when it’s time to do that double thing.😂
This is the reason to see Danny Carey and tool. I’m so glad to have seen it live. Remember question authority
Your faces are so expressive and show exactly what this song invokes. Your video is one of my favorite reactions to watch, so much so that I linked it in a video that I made about this song. Keep being beautiful and thanks for letting me share in this experience with you. :) Blessings.
"His timing is impeccable "
He's Danny fucking Carey, of course it is.
Danny with a high hat.. a snare, and a bass drum. outdoes just about every drummer with a full kit. awesome
The Octopus satisfies more fans!!!!! He is STUPID good and never fails to amaze. His touch, his attack, his finesse, all on point. I need a nap after watching this video every time, he wears me out. Fun reaction for sure. You 2 are awesome.
He's the master of polyrhythmic; metronomes consider him as a god...
That belongs to Matt Garstka
I think she started to recognize the time, if not formally, and started to ask the practical "how does he do this?"
Best drummer in the world
I would live to see a drum duel between Danny and Mike Portnoy.
Actualy, the metronomes ask him wich time signature to play
Holy fockinell man! That is the sickest, most hypnotic thing I've ever witnessed. Danny fkn Carey people
%1000
He is playing a rhythm inside a rhythm inside another rhythm!
Danny is the wizard, his kit is the caldron, everything else is pure magic
Watched this thousands of times and never fails to amaze me
The result of devotion, practice and spirit... Ladies and Gentlemen, Dan "The Man" Carey!....
...another jaw droppin' performance...
Octopus in action. It's Freaking hypnotic🔥😁. Splitting his brain during that run he touches every single drum head. Insane
Just the look on your faces. This is why I love TOOL reactions.
2:55 : “I hope they give him a nice drum solo.”
Me: “oh you poor child, bless”🤣
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Danny Carey is an inspiration to drummers while at the same time causing others to just give up.
Legend has it that D Grohl gave up drumming been he saw DC
Danny has three brains controlling 8 limbs, all independently. He's a big dude, too, like 6'5", and almost 60yo. 😎
And... Danny does not play to a click or music director. Danny IS the click. 🤘

fun fact hes not a young dude. in this video hes 58 years old
Funner fact he's 59 and has a new baby
Funnerer fact... I’m in the crowd... and I’ve shaken the man’s hand.
58 and still jacked af
The greatest artists should always get better as they get older - he would probably tell you even now that he's got more to learn and perfect. That's what separates him from 99.9% of other players - a tireless desire to improve.
Can you imagine being that good? How much pressure is on this legend. Goat! !!!.OMG
I sadly didn't become a Tool fan till more recently especially when their newest record with this song on it came out i gave them a chance and something just clicked they are some of the most talented musicians I've seen the time signatures and sounds they produce are fuckin insane
I listen to Tool since 1998 and still takes me one or two years to digest a new record.
This is not for the impatient ones..! 😀😀🇦🇷🇦🇷✌🏾✌🏾
Welcome! 🤘🏼😈
better late than NEVER...awesome that you found them.
Welcome. TOOL fans love when folk discover them. They are and have been next level since the 90s but sadly many fans are a bit overzealous and turned off a lot of people who didn't realize they were so special and never gave them a listen.
You are correct, welcome. The water is deep.
Drummers don't amaze me. THIS drummer amazes me.
Danny Carey = The GOAT!
This is called owning your craft. Danny tells time when it's behind.
For most people, watching a drummer do different stuff with each of their lims is spectacular. Being a drummer myself, that's business as usual. But playing different rhythms at the same time, and make it look easy like Danny, it's what's impressive to me.
Nothing better seeing someone’s first time real reaction of Danny Carey
I am so proud of you Danny
Makes my century when TOOL virgins are in a position where they must pay attention.
Their views and mindset on what a good band should sound like has just been renewed!
LOVE your TOOL!!!
Nightwish & Tool !!!! Two of my favorite bands. Oh Yeah!!!! Keep up the good work!
pls dont use the two in same sentence ewer again :p
I didn't watch the whole thing so just curious, where did Nightwish come up? lol
Only the greatest living drummer
Neil Peart is the Goat

Love your Rush & Tool reactions...thank you!!!!!!
I’ve watched about 50 of these D.C. reaction videos and the looks on your faces alone make this one my favorite. He’s the greatest at what he does.
I have watched many of these videos, and this is, by far, the funnest to watch. Watching their faces said everything. Thank you guys for sharing your reaction.
I love tool. They always raise the bar while encouraging others to follow. It is never a "ha we are better than you!" it is a "Here is our best, you can follow suit."
"Because he can". Best Danny's definition ever...
Living metronome. Maynard states he chose to situate himself further back on stage compared to their earlier performances in the 90’s because he can keep time better with his singing to Carey’s drumming .

"His body is doing 8 different things" - ah yes, I see you've met Danny Carey. 😂 Fun fact, he does play 4 different rhythms. 1 with each limb.
5 actually but he would have to remove his pants
When he uses the brain in each limb, he can play 8
Great reaction. A pleasure to experience this masterpiece with the two of you.
03:15 get started 5/7 tact speed 05:00 bridge was "crazy" difficulty 06:27 "wow" was djemba (African hand drum ). 09:15 "How his thinging. left hand make rolls (fills).
Danny Carey is my second favorite drummer of all time…. He’s my #1 too but also my second favorite drummer as well.
Just gotta say, dude is pushing like 58 or 59 years old in this video, and jacked af. He has like 40 solos in this one song. Glad you enjoyed.
i have the utmost respect for some of musics greatest drummers. but ive never heard anyone who can play 4 time signatures at once like danny. unbelievable
Masterpiece performance!
So the reason of Danny looking so chill while slaying the drum kit is because the whole entire band is into serious meditations. They all are deep into spirituality and opening the third eye.
He has eight brains. The metronome asks Danny what the time signature is.. I love watching musicians appreciate DC.

Danny is a beast for sure, so many vids of this. Maynard gets gets lost almost, his voice is unreal. Tool is perfect in every way.
HIS SNARE IS CRISP AND I LOVE HIS REMOTE HIGH HAT
I can wax poetic on how amazing Danny Carey is but I implore you to explore Tool- it is simply an experience.
Danny Carey from Tool and Matt Garstka from Animals as Leaders are hands down the most amazing drummers I know.

“It’s like an extension of his body”…..it LITERALLY is just that!

Next on the Drummers' list: Neil Peart of Rush doing his solo in Frankfurt, Germany. Both of you already seen him in YYZ video.
LOL you two are very fun and very prolific!!! Keep it up
Danny Carey is a God. Lord of percussion we beg for your mercy. Let us bask in your percussive glory.
Danny Carry is an incredible drummer he is in my top 5 favorites along with john "bonzo" bonham from zeppelin and neil peart RIP both and Ian Paice from deep purple
You just watched the best drummer out there imo. If you do more TOOL I’ll join.
Lost my favorite drummer Neil Peart to cancer this year. Danny is right up there with technical ability. Danny was a huge fan of Neil's and also a friend of his
Someone jokingly said Danny’s left arm is one of the best drummers in the world. Fact though!
