Chris Dave has been playing like this way before Weapons of the Modern drummer came out. In fact JoJo predicted drummers like Chris and Dana Hawkins coming out of the woodworks over 15 years ago...
I'd actually be pretty terrified to be in a room with Chris Dave and Jojo Mayer. If they come in contact with each other, it might rip a hole in space and time.
I've now watched this a bunch of times, and I'm just blown away by the variety of sounds he's getting out of a very very simple kit. Makes the guys with the 73 tom, 152 cymbal, wraparound drum kits look really silly. Is it limiting? Sure is. But it's like watching the drumming equivalent of Japanese flower arrangement. The dynamics, the phrasing, the timing.....it's mind boggling.
The last minute (from 2:34 on) was probably what "moved him" the most, though :-) Love those 2 different size cymbals and tambourine shakers, for the hi-hat. Dave worked it, worked it! lol
I just felt like he lost the pocket for a second, and bounced back with the spaced doubles. I can normally keep with all the modulatioms and feel his tempo but I lost it and it wasn't because it was too hard
@COdrums4life Lol..my bad I was just replying kobe10032, Taylor mcferrin is the dude with the crazy hair style standing next to Jo Mayer with the beer in his hand
He can do more with just a kick, snare, and hi hat then most drummers (including me) can do on a whole set. Ridiculous. Oh, I forgot the thing filled with water.
I like how that guy with the tall hair and beer on the left is trying so hard to head nod and look cool, while Jojo Mayer (a drummer with some of the best chops in the world) is just sitting there completely still and watching.
Randall van den Berg i don't really care who his daddie is. he's trying way to hard to look "cool." If you can send me a link of Taylor McFerrin's music I'll shut the fuck up.
You know you are good when Jojo Mayer comes to watch you. Wow.
Chris has been in this for way more than 10 years. He started with Stokley and Mint back in 96!

drumtravelfun nah they're on a similar level of ridiculous time benders that control the cosmos of time to their will

And 10 years later we have JD Beck. Insane how this strain of drumming continues so strongly.
Nah chris Dave run circles on jojo wouldn't even put em in the same lane
1:36 - 1:59 everyone's got a different rhythm that's the beauty of it
Taylor McFerrin, OP, Stimulus, Jojo Mayer and Chris Dave all up under the Hotel Rivington, damn I miss New York
Jojo and taylor mcferrin chillin
it maybe a potato but this clip is legendary

All the while he's thinking, "Damn...I wish there were more females out there" :-)
Did this dude just kill it with a Kick, Snare, and Hat???????? Siiiiiiiiiiick!!!!!!!!!
i wish there were full video!!!!!!
thanks for this dope post
saw Chris with (the real) Kenny G. ten years ago and he was already unbelievable!
Peace out.
Nah, Jojo got his own thing. That's why he's there watching Dave do his thing.
Mammmma mia !!! Cooooool !!!!
Hey! It's Taylor McFerrin at 1:21 (Bobby McFerrin's Son) - Also a phenomenal musician/artist!
taylor mcferrin cameo appearance @ 1:20

Great drummer!!!!
Absolutely sick... learnt soo much from this video
lo vi 169.786 veces.... me sigue sorprendiendo
The last minute (from 2:34 on) was probably what "moved him" the most, though :-) Love those 2 different size cymbals and tambourine shakers, for the hi-hat. Dave worked it, worked it! lol
sick hi-hats. I want those
Wht kind of hats are those, the jingles sound so sick!
Jojo just sittin there like grumpy cat. Would love to see Chris and Jojo do something together. Might break the space time continuum, though.
The dude with the hair is Taylor mcferrin..crazy producer
Mi batero preferido " No tengo dudas !
Art Busker diferente a todos, tremendo
Tal cual !!! todo el Groove y el Swing " Abzo
@Moog168
you are right, we have to applaud both
If Nate Smith walked in, the place would implode.
Haha now i got it. That would be the sickest party ever
@ns81 Naw Zildjian used to have a series called the "Remix" series and he happens to have Hihats from that series.
1:23 .. is that jojo mayer listening on the very left?? ^^
great video.. thanks for sharing°!!
Didn't know Goku listened to Chris "Daddy" Dave.
jojo is like,'am I hearing right? there's 2 drummers there!'
really cool drumming~~~~~~~~~|
Taylor McFerrin & Jojo 1;24 Listening to Daddy :):)
@matej9907
yeah it is !
u can see him in so many good drum vids.....he never stops to listen and learn ;-)
Chris got that snare sanging, Bo!
Is that Jojo Mayer in the background?? camera pans at about 1:30 and he appears to be sitting there..
the only drummer i know that could legitimately get away with using a bottle of patrón to dampen the snare drum... goodness gracious
Dana Hawkins, Taylor McPherrin, Jojo Mayer gaddman
@gogodancer253 His creativity is off the wall. To have a bottle of Patron and kill it is ....(ain't a word for it) hehe.
HE WAS GOING IN !!!!!!!!!!!!
man i wish this vid would just keep going 3:30 is not enough.....
Did he attach tambourine jingles to his hats?
@tamadrums101 Yeah, the top is the Re-Mix jingle hat, looks like he's using a larger 14" for a bottom hat though!
1:20 supersane hair outta no where
JOJO Was Thinking: He's Good But I'm The Best
@tamadrums101 Zildjian 13" Re-Mix hats. They only make them special order these days.
Is that hi hat top 13" it looks like it, but I can't tell. I see that the bottom is either a 14" or 15"
Respect!
My Inspiration
Jojo has an invitation to everything good happening in nyc
Who be that rapper? He got skills!

Joe McGuth Zildjian's Re-Mix 13'' Jingle Hi-Hat from the 90's on top.
did anyone else see goku with a beard over there?
Jojo Mayer , Chris Dave, Dana Hawkins, And Little McFerrin ? That's Too Much Freak Of Nature In One Place.
This was recorded on additional bottle of patron.
Actually, it's Bobby McFerrin's son Taylor McFerrin.
where?
a wild jojo mayer appears...
1:23 I'mma drink sum beer, oh shit the camera's on me, now i don't wanna look like a drunkard, do I?
@pastense b4 96! 93 @ least bc hes on da mint factory album da 2nd MC album
is that Mitt Romney in the back?
and mister john blackwell!!
Daaaaamn. 1:50
Daddy Dave!!
How does he manage keeping it in the pocket?!
He doesn't. He just knows where to come back in. Even when he messes up the pocket he doesn't lose the time so it sounds cohesive
I guess you' re right...
Akete Knight How do you know he messed up?
I just felt like he lost the pocket for a second, and bounced back with the spaced doubles. I can normally keep with all the modulatioms and feel his tempo but I lost it and it wasn't because it was too hard
+Akete Knight Well if i had a bottle of patron on my snare...
@COdrums4life Lol..my bad I was just replying kobe10032, Taylor mcferrin is the dude with the crazy hair style standing next to Jo Mayer with the beer in his hand
He can do more with just a kick, snare, and hi hat then most drummers (including me) can do on a whole set. Ridiculous. Oh, I forgot the thing filled with water.

I like how that guy with the tall hair and beer on the left is trying so hard to head nod and look cool, while Jojo Mayer (a drummer with some of the best chops in the world) is just sitting there completely still and watching.
That 'guy' just happens to be Taylor McFerrin, son of Bobby McFerrin..
Randall van den Berg
i don't really care who his daddie is. he's trying way to hard to look "cool." If you can send me a link of Taylor McFerrin's music I'll shut the fuck up.
Randall van den Berg
Oh yeah I don't think that is bobby McFerrins son, and I think you're lying. #schupan #fabmasters
Matt Smith He is Bobby Mcferrin's son -_-
Matt Smith Who cares what Mayer is doing (or the other guy)?
Anyone who know what kind of hihat that is?
