  • Here's By Your Command By Devin Townsend Live in Denver on July 15th during the USA Dreamsonic tour with Dream Theater and Animals As Leaders.. This Song is a real challenge drum wise but a ton of fun of play. The audio is from the Front Of House board mix. Nothing has been corrected or edited.Can you spot where my stick snaps and I quickly get another out the stick bag?!

    That Devon Townsend still manages to sell out arena's...gives me hope for humanity. The triumph of creativity...integrity...individuality...intelligence...and authenticity.

    These drum cam videos are great! Thanks for posting them! My twin brother and I (and my brother's wife) were at the show in Newport KY on July 9th (2023). Thanks for stopping by the local tavern after the show and hanging out. It was such an honor to meet you and to have a chance to talk to you about your career!

    You killed it! And damn...Devin's vocals sound incredible. Dream Theater making Labrie follow Devin is maybe the most passive aggressive thing I've ever witnessed, lol.

      i've been watching the encores posted every few days on youtube, i like the scream at the end but i prefer the regular high note because it carries so much power and really captures the song.

      It was actually the guys in Dream Theater that wanted Dev to do the scream. He did it for fun one night and they were like keep doing it!

      @@DarbyTodd Me too bro, me too! My profile pic is my kit. Legend series in Dorchester blue. It’s 12/14 20 but I’m about to order an 8/10 add ons. I also got the Raven snare and it’s a beautiful drum for the money. Although my Raven has an issue the guys over at BDC are going to sort it. I only live 20 mins from the factory. Thanks for reply man, I love your work. Ps I never knew your second kick was for aesthetics 😆 love that!

    nice switching drumstick at 5:03 a talent that not all audience notice..... great perfromance by the way, for those who doesn´t know this drum track was originally programmed by Devin, so been said that, the drum track was created by this monster not worring about the drummers who would br playing live after, so just a few can be able to play it the right way .... cheers from Mexico

    Wow, that vocal intro was captivating! You sound great Darby, as expected. :) As a side note, your kit aesthetic is very cool. I dig the color and how the big "felts" match the orange.

    Amazing performance for a tough and long song. Love all your volume modulation and adaptation to fit the momentum and the ambient of each part. Can I ask what you do several times with your floor Tom at the end of the song? Muting it?

    • @DarbyTodd
      @DarbyTodd  4 месяца назад +1

      Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. The drum thing you mention was a weird one. For some reason some nights I felt off during that part. Just resting my hand on the drum gave me a bit of extra balance on the stool to play the part. It was just one of those weird moments where on certain shows I felt more confident during that part with extra stability. Other nights I didn’t feel the need to do it!!

    This looks like a marathon to do on the drums, the triplet section in that final third seems like a bitch!

    Whats the BT-1 usually used for?? I see its unplugged so its probably not that important, but keen to know :)

    • @DarbyTodd
      @DarbyTodd  10 месяцев назад +1

      It’s used in a song called Why. On the nights we don’t play it. We just leave it unplugged. One less thing to flash trigger!! Not that that happens much. It’s also got some other sounds for other song on so that if another trigger or pad went down I could use it. Mainly redundancy unless we play Why and I need my orchestral samples.

    • @damiangraham3649
      @damiangraham3649 10 месяцев назад

      ​@@DarbyToddmakes a lot of sense! Really good idea to use as a redundancy trigger incase your primary trigger fails. Thanks for your reply!!!!

  • @iowadrummer79
    @iowadrummer79 7 месяцев назад

    @Darby Todd - at around the 7:00 mark you are doing some hand muffling or something on the snare and floor tom during the rapid kick drum patterns. Can you shed some light on this process?

    • @DarbyTodd
      @DarbyTodd  7 месяцев назад +1

      Hey mate. For some reason some days I just felt a bit off balance during that section and I found that by using my drums for a bit of stability I played the part better. Other nights I didnt feel like I had to. Strange I know!

      Try Devin’s latest album Lightwork. It may be more your thing! It’s not heavy at all.
