My younger brother and I were right in front of you at this show. A few weeks later, he bought his first drum set. Thank you, Ilan. You are a master of your craft and an inspiration to many.
My 10 year old daughter is an aspiring drummer. I had to show this to her to prove that her parent’s favorite band is still cool! Thanks for the inspiration!
@@robmausser I know, been following NIN for years, but the live production on it this tour is particularly good. The metal rings in the Q kit really make it pop.
This reminds me of a great drummer joke (coming from a place of love and a huge Neil fan but still funny) - Q: how many drummers does it take to change a lightbulb? A: 20. One to change the bulb and 19 to talk about how Neil Peart would have done it better. 😝 p.s. Ilan slays TL live!
This mix is pure awesomeness 😍 I only wish one day we will be able to see you perform Ruiner like in 2009 with this audio and video quality. Thank you so much to you and your brother 💕
@@Quartiano I think the point is that he is performing with a band that was of adulthood while he was only just being born lol. But yeah nothing incredible about performing a song older than you on its own lol
This right here is why I went to great pains to always use a live drummer when I made industrial music in the day. The amount of energy drummers bring to the stage is unreal, and the sterility of a drummer-less show is just depressing in a live-music scenario. Of course Ilan is on another level.
I love Chris Vrenna. He really did a lot to build NIN into a great live band and is a great drummer. With that being said, Ilan is the best drummer NIN ever had. I am glad he has been with them for so long! What a catch!
I also loved Josh Freese, Josh is certainly more charismatic and certainly as badass, but Ilan is part of the NIN family now, like Alessandro and especially Robin Finck, and whoever is on bass, which now happens to be Alessandro :D
I remember sitting in an underground parking lot, under Budweiser Gardens, after the Beside You In Time show in London, ON, shooting the shit with you and the guys from the band, until the wee hours of the morning, before going to breakfast at City Lights. I can honestly say it's one of my fondest memories, seeing NIN live for my birthday and getting to go backstage, epic! Love you dude, keep pounding those skins! P.S. Any chance of getting an autographed copy of Downward Spiral by all the guys? I got robbed and they stole over 10k CD's...lol
Excellent mix and tone Ilan! How often do you go before changing out warped cymbals? That left side Avedis crash has seen so much rock and roll by your hand!
Man thank you for posting these special pieces. Totally fascinating and humbling at the same time. Youngest HOF inductee ever! Couldn't have honored a finer musician. Rock on!
*HOLY FUCK THAT KIT/MIX IS AMAZING. That’s better than most album quality audio there. Also, Rubin is such a solid drummer with just enough tech peppered in there to keep the drumming interesting but not so much that it’s out of pocket.*
Without a Doubt, you are my favorite young ROCK drummer. You have the Swing & spontaneity that made classic Rock Drumming great, yet you also have a machine like precision that Grooves like CRAZY. I hope to see you perform live this year. I also hope to one day meet you. ROCK N ROLL 🤘🏽😎🔥
nine inch nail's music itches a part of my brain that no artist can. every part is so fuckin good. the sound quality in this video is FUCKING STELLAR. one day i hope i get to see this live. im pretty sure ill be set for life. lmfao
Pretty psyched to see someone drum with their left on the hi-hat and right on the snare that is a righty. Been the way I always drummed, no one told me it was "wrong" so it's great to see someone at this level/scale doing the same, especially with NIN. That shit is not easy.
finally put it together that i should just turn on notifications for your videos because i already drop everything to watch these when i see a new one lol ty for uploading them!
Vrenna is amazing and not to take anything away from him at all, but I can't think of a better drummer for NiN. You fit so well and your style just adds so much to the live shows. I hope to see you with the rest of the guys live again asap!
I dont care about drummers who play one handed on social media, or non stop blast beats...the groove, power and feel that Ilan has, is unmatched IMO. Best NIN live drummer since Chris Vrenna. (IMO).
I can’t work out if Ilan’s left-handed or right-handed. Seems to be left-handed to start with then looks like he’s switching to his right. Ambidextrous maybe?
Thanks to drummer who Made It for album in 90s (check 2010 version) and till now sounds perfect ! Sound is awesome - thanks Trent ! Ilan very good drummer (no sh*t), but music and basic idea - of NIN, Trent early years
I guess I just don't hear it thematically, but when Trent always says that 'Down In It' was a rip-off of Skinny Puppy's 'Dig It' ----- I always hear Terrible Lie moreso as the companion piece. Just from the sharp guitar chords and keys in the chorus. I always found that strange that this wasn't the "rip off".
I saw you at Kings Theater, Brooklyn, New York. I was lucky to witness you give justice to my favorite song 'Perfect Drug'. Thank you for that performance and please return to Brooklyn.
Ladies, gentlemen, all genders. Every day, hundreds of people are at awesome gigs, but restrained in fully seated venues. Together, we can end this unnecessary pain. Do your bit. Think once. Think twice. Think: That area in front of NIN is for moshing.
Wow. Absolutely amazing. I bet that has to feel pretty incredible. NIN has always had my favorite drummers. There have been so many great parts. The drums are mic'd to perfection herw. Sounds awesome. Hopefully I get to see it live for myself sometime soon. Please ask Trent to play San Diego 👏👏👍👍🍻
these are incredible drum cam videos. The mix sounds amazing, the camera angles give a great view of each part of the kit and where it fits into the rest of the band. What a great document of how these songs are currently being performed.
I was 10 in 1990 when an older acquaintance named DJ let us listen to his tape of pretty hate machine. Somehow I got a cd a few weeks later. Started playing drums around this time. You are living my childhood dream
Another kick ass video! I haven't played since early December due to an injury and illness and these vids make me want to just tear back into it. For the fills and runs at the end; are they written or do you improv them every night? There are a few sections where it feels like an "I'm gonna try this" moment and it works out so well.
What the hell?? He switched from using his right hand for his snare in the first half of the song (lefty style) to playing righty. That, I’ve never seen anyone do before.
I've been to a lot of shows, and 3 other NIN ones, but the audio quality and overall engineering at this show was BY FAR the best that I've ever heard. Sound crew deserves an award. Apparently they replace their whole system frequently, so that helps too.
My younger brother and I were right in front of you at this show. A few weeks later, he bought his first drum set. Thank you, Ilan. You are a master of your craft and an inspiration to many.
That’s awesome, I just recently got my first drums. Hope your brother has a fun time playing!
That’s what it’s all about! Seeing Slash, Billy Joe from Greenday, Blink 182, Peak Hatfield in the 90’s did it for me with guitars!
My 10 year old daughter is an aspiring drummer. I had to show this to her to prove that her parent’s favorite band is still cool! Thanks for the inspiration!
this guy is insanity
Rock on, Ilan🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟❤️
What a song! Wow!
Are you using a double bass pedal?
Whoever tuned that snare and mic’d it deserves a god damn Nobel prize.
Its a hybrid. Its half live feed and there is a trigger on it with a digital sample.
@@robmausser I know, been following NIN for years, but the live production on it this tour is particularly good. The metal rings in the Q kit really make it pop.
Right? The drums sound diabolical.
@@brandonboucher7090 If by diabolical you mean a masterpiece then sure.
@@TheCoronaMortis they sound TOO good. Whoever tuned/set those up must have made a deal with the Devil.
I'm a simple woman. I see an Ilan Rubin drum cam video, i click.
That's the best kind of woman!
@@CaptData1 wait the simple kind or the kind that click ilan rubin drum cam videos
@@butstough the combination.
That cymbal grab at 2:13 is a thing of beauty.
Wait till you hear Neil Peart in the intro to limelight
This reminds me of a great drummer joke (coming from a place of love and a huge Neil fan but still funny) - Q: how many drummers does it take to change a lightbulb? A: 20. One to change the bulb and 19 to talk about how Neil Peart would have done it better. 😝 p.s. Ilan slays TL live!
4:31 I definitely did not expect a “Portnoy fill” in NIN. Sounds awesome
This mix is pure awesomeness 😍 I only wish one day we will be able to see you perform Ruiner like in 2009 with this audio and video quality. Thank you so much to you and your brother 💕
Ruiner gets way too little play live
@@robmausser Totally. I'd love to see a return of No you don't and Into The Void one day too... but one that doesn't get enough love... DEEP
@@robmausser yes
That snare sound is just so good
it has a trigger so im sure it's layered with a sample so it sounds thick and sick
Thank you @Jeremy Berman of Q Drum for making an incredible snare drum that Ilan crushes.
so crazy this song is older than you, yet you're here KILLING IT live! You're a lucky man 🙌
You’re making me feel old
How is it “crazy” for a drummer to perform a song that is older than them? Lol.
I'm older than this song
@@Quartiano I think the point is that he is performing with a band that was of adulthood while he was only just being born lol. But yeah nothing incredible about performing a song older than you on its own lol
Lucky, but I bet he worked his arse off to get there.

Josh Freese exists though
@@KayButtonJay : Josh Freese is like a clock. Never out of time, but boring as hell. Great studio drummer.
I remember Jerome Dillon...
@@stagecoachrobbery boring as hell? That’s a bit of a hyperbole.
@@cgoliveri Josh Freese' version of Wish is simply phenomenal. Dude is a freaking machine.
4:38 those triplets between the bass drum and toms though 🔥
I'm Afraid Of Americans please!! Love that drumming on the bridge/outro
More NIN uploads PLEASE...Your percussion for them is just mind blowing
He's the real deal. Don't fuck with him
These drum cam videos are just amazing. I really hope you keep'em coming!
Just thinking how this song has come a long way. The live mix is insane.
Best musician Trent ever hired. Best drummer for nin. Imo
This is correct
I also loved Josh Freese, Josh is certainly more charismatic and certainly as badass, but Ilan is part of the NIN family now, like Alessandro and especially Robin Finck, and whoever is on bass, which now happens to be Alessandro :D
Such an incredible fit for the band. Great drummer with killer fills.

Such a good drummer! What a band
Guy’s a monster!! Amazing!!
@ 2:13 Ilan just knows how cool that one handed choke is going to look right next to the gopro haha. Absolute beast.
the sound of NIN always feels current
Man thank you for posting these special pieces. Totally fascinating and humbling at the same time. Youngest HOF inductee ever! Couldn't have honored a finer musician. Rock on!
Beyond outstanding. You have a gift, brother! Breathing new life into a classic track
Fucking genius!!! That passage at 4:15. Omg!!! Gives me goosebumps!
The man, the myth, the legend....
The tone and accuracy are so good that it sounds like a drum machine but better?! My eyes and ears are confused but happy. Unreal.
Probably triggers on the drums.
If you look on his right, there's two black circular pads just above his right most tom. Those hit sample sounds they can't easily get otherwise.

You have to be a drummer to fully appreciate how awesome this performance is. Just superb skills and musicality by Ilan.
I forgot how good this song is 😎 especially live.
My very first NIN show! I can see myself and was in front of Atticus! Thank you so much for uploading, you don’t know how much this means to me!
So F******* Good 🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥🤘
Damn this version just absolutely slayssssss. Excellent work.
nine inch nail's music itches a part of my brain that no artist can. every part is so fuckin good. the sound quality in this video is FUCKING STELLAR. one day i hope i get to see this live. im pretty sure ill be set for life. lmfao
Exactly. . . I'm here in the Czech Republic, but I'll follow them anywhere

Q drums and Ilan rule! RIP Jermey gonna miss you my friend.
That was awesome! Those fills at the end were amazing!
Nevermind that the drums are a mix of live & digital samples. The playing is phenomenal and as tight as a nun's...
finally put it together that i should just turn on notifications for your videos because i already drop everything to watch these when i see a new one lol ty for uploading them!
Vrenna is amazing and not to take anything away from him at all, but I can't think of a better drummer for NiN. You fit so well and your style just adds so much to the live shows.
I hope to see you with the rest of the guys live again asap!
This concert's gonna be a video release...it is..right? The mix is just too awesome not to be
I dont care about drummers who play one handed on social media, or non stop blast beats...the groove, power and feel that Ilan has, is unmatched IMO. Best NIN live drummer since Chris Vrenna. (IMO).
Great job been following you when you endorsed Q drums you,Brandon Pertzborn ,Art Cruz I followed all ya in the “new” my favorite drummers category 🤘🏽
Sounds Awesome
Masterful playing and looks like an absolute badass while doing it. You literally couldn't ask for more.
So good, I love these videos! This is my all time favourite nin songs, the rock out at the end is the best.
Absolutely
These videos are awesome!
Any chance for even more videos of this show?
Hell yes, I was there! McMenamin's Edgefield amphitheater! What an amazing show!
1:11 so sick!!!
Good God, man. Phenomenal.
You're amazing. Do you happen to have video of MR. SELF DESTRUCT?
This is hands down the best Iv ever herd NIN!!! I’m done it’s finished ✅
One of the favourite live tracks, I love the fills and how each drummer has a different take on them.
Trent: "So I use the drum machines to create unique beats that no human could actually play." Ilan Rubin: "Please hold this beer."
I can’t work out if Ilan’s left-handed or right-handed. Seems to be left-handed to start with then looks like he’s switching to his right. Ambidextrous maybe?
Absolutely beautiful! Were I a man of fewer words, I could have summed this up in two: Primal Precision
one of the top 3 drummers in the biz right here people 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks to drummer who Made It for album in 90s (check 2010 version) and till now sounds perfect !
Sound is awesome - thanks Trent !
Ilan very good drummer (no sh*t), but music and basic idea - of NIN, Trent early years
Been waiting for this one! :D
Fuckin sick!
Ooh this is a fvcking treat. Can this world really be as sad as it seems? Not when w3 get drum view NIN TERRIBLE LIE PARTY.
I guess I just don't hear it thematically, but when Trent always says that 'Down In It' was a rip-off of Skinny Puppy's 'Dig It' ----- I always hear Terrible Lie moreso as the companion piece. Just from the sharp guitar chords and keys in the chorus. I always found that strange that this wasn't the "rip off".

super tight and great energetic performance.
Awesome drummer🤟🏼🤟🏼❤🇨🇦
This is what real music is kiddies!

WOWZER SCHNAUZERS! That’s cymbal grab at 2mins 14 is pure wonderful.

Superb. Just wonderful.
What the hell??
He switched from using his right hand for his snare in the first half of the song (lefty style) to playing righty.
That, I’ve never seen anyone do before.
Dude…you gots to be wearing a respirator. Crazy atmospheric clouds fronts assaulting u drum kit. U gonna gets the fog lung.
Amazing band ,amazing drummer you are the best drummer ilan.. good vibes
Can't wait for the "Wish" drum cam! 🤞🏼😁
So much energy in this banger of a turn of the century song
quite possibly the best drum mix I've ever heard
This is so wild! I always thought Ilan Rubin™ was a brand of drum machine!
He's really good!
I've been to a lot of shows, and 3 other NIN ones, but the audio quality and overall engineering at this show was BY FAR the best that I've ever heard. Sound crew deserves an award. Apparently they replace their whole system frequently, so that helps too.
BEST NIN DRUMMER EVER
Fucking crushing it. The last minute or so of your drumming is brilliant and makes this classic so fresh.
YESSS ! 🔥🔥🔥 the fills are so clean
Great job of all involved! And mix is unbelievably outstanding!
Mike Bordin's baby brother is so clean.
Ilan this is mental! I will always be amazed by your drumming
Is that in Oregon 2022?!! I was there,it was fucking awesome!!!
