Shannon Larkin is the guy that starts on the drums, Sully is on the congas. Sully is the singer for the band. Godsmack has quite few great songs worthy of your reaction!
They do small samples of some of their favorite artists towards the end. The first one that you recognized was the intro to Rush - YYZ. They are both in the band. Shannon is the 'official' drummer, but Sully is also an accomplished drummer, guitarist, and their lead singer. I've seen them do this live and it's awesome. I consider it more 'tandem drumming' than an actual drum battle, as they aren't trying to outdo each other.
As everyone is saying, Sully is on the congas at the beginning and is also the lead singer. He started out playing drums growing up. He also plays guitar, piano, and other instruments as well. I have actually seen this live twice. The first time on the first tour they ever did this and was amazed. Did not see that coming. Saw them again with my wife and kids a couple years ago and they did this again. Great live show! Love watching your reactions.
Sully was the bongo player. This was filmed in KC, MO. I was there. They opened for Metallica. I only know that because that security guard was about 6 rows in front of us.
Absolutely love Godsmack and have seen them live at least 10 times..... appreciate your love of all music and glad you enjoyed this. Looking forward to other Godsmack reactions...
They did a drum solo when i saw them at Louder than Life last year and it was awesome. I used to be one of those metal heads that made fun of godsmack but god damn if they didnt put every ounce of energy into their show and songs. Great live show 10/10
Admittedly, I cherish just a few of their songs, but they put a whole of energy into their live show! Worth seeing even if you just like a couple of their songs.
Saw Shannon when he was with the band Wrathchild later known as wrathchild America and actually drank a beer with the band at the Masquerade in Atlanta 1991. I have a drum stick with his signature shannon xxx on them .
Shannon was in the band wrathchild? Did not know that. Saw them at funkys night club in the 80s in Indiana. I still have their cassette tape. Was a GREAT band.
@@cindywolfe7997 Well there was a band called just Wrathchild. They were a glam band from the 80's. Then there was Wrathchild America (named so because of the other band Wrathchild, which was from England). 2 very different bands. Shannon was in Wrathchild America.
You make an awesome headbanger, my friend! This was dope! You brought a massive smile to my face and I really needed it today. Peace and love brother. Love the medley at the end, I believe it was Rush (YYZ), Aerosmith (Walk this Way), Led Zeppelin (Moby Dick), and then Rush again (Tom Sawyer).
hands down, one of the best live shows out there still. Godsmack straight lays it down, fooks it up, and leaves you wanting more as they wave goodbye ( all while Sully steals your girl , you'll see )..... If you should EVER get the chance, please go see them.
I've seen godsmack live and do this drum battle... you wan an experience, try and see this live!!! (one day hopefully, fingers crossed!). your reaction makes me enjoy this so much more than i already do, haha, love it!
i remember, when i was 12/13, in the late '60s, Ginger Bakewr, who many consider to be the best drummer, EVER, went to the middle of Africa, miles from any town, set up a stage and gave a concert. just him, drumming. native Africans came from miles around. thousands of them. it was amazing. there must still be film of it, somewhere. if you love drumming, you really need to check him out. he played for Cream, back in the '60s, but he also played for a group called Blind Faith, but they only made one album. there's plenty of his stuff on youtube
I’m so glad you reacted to this one!! Godsmack is one of my favorite bands! I was finally able to see them live in 2018 with Shinedown! Totally EPIC!! Nothing beats seeing/hearing this live and in person!! And I love it when Shannon turns into Animal from the Muppets!!! LoL Keep em comin Jamal!!
Sully killed it on that percussion unit as usual, got Dang! Dude, they did an acoustic show in Vegas, called An Evening With Godsmack. Some great tunes on that, including another Drum/ Percussion duel. I'd like to see you do a reaction to 'Spiral', from that gig. Thanks for spreading the love
Sully was the one playing the congos..he's also the lead singer and plays every instrument in the band. Check out Shannon(the lead drummer) playing Oracle. It's awesome!
I've been fortunate enough to see these guys many times. The drum battle is my favorite part of the show. Sully is the lead singer, and quite the drummer in his own right. Shannon is a phenomenal drummer on his own. On their way up, Godsmack would incorporate snippets of some of their favorite rock tunes into their rehearsals. The idea to make it part of their show was born, and the rest is history. In this battle, you heard RUSH, AEROSMITH, and LED ZEPPELIN. Their way of paying homage to their rock heroes. I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as you did. Love watching you react. Keep up the great work.
The lead singer started out playing the bongos with his hands, he is Sully Erna and Shannon Larkin is their actual drummer who started on his own kit. Sully originally was a drummer, he can play anything and his skills are absolutely insane 🔥🤘🏻 I got the privilege to see this live too
Pretty badass to see 2 drummers hitting lick for lick. Even more badass when the 2nd guy is the lead singer. One of the coolest things I've been able to witness
I'm late to this Reaction Party, but just the same -> I Love love love this! Being at an actual show (I've been to many)...the sound and energy just reverberates through your entire body. These guys are AWESOME!! Thank you for reacting to this.
Being a drummer myself, when I first discovered this video a few months ago, I was blown away. I’m not anywhere close to this level of drumming, but I would love to be someday. You should definitely pick up the drums. They’re so much fun to play. And I can’t tell you how many times I’ve pissed off kids in class, going back to elementary school because I was using my pencils on my desk and my feet on the floor as my personal drum set 😂. I swear over the years, I’ve developed some sort of ADD/ADHD in that regard, where every sort of solid object has become a drum/drumstick. It’s so much fun
I watched this awhile back and wow what a lot of fun that was. Not a huge Godsmack fan but much respect, they put on a show and have a good time doing it. What i like about this as compared to other solos was their was actual music accompanying it.
Sully was the one with the Bongo jam. Sully is a beast no doubt. Shannon is a Monster when he really lets loose. Has been since the 80's when his band Wrathchild America, would let me open up for them. The only guy in music I knew who was skinnier than I was. And a True fan of rock n roll. He's stop by when my bands were playing nearby and he was not busy. Hell of a nice guy. Glad to see it again. thanks..
As for the Sully Erna i strongly recommend his solo album "Avalon" songs like "Sinner's prayer", "7 years", "Eyes of the child" are just amazing. Whole album is and Sully's vocal just incredible
Jamel, you really need to do: *Earth, Wind and Fire* (70s Funk/Disco/Soul Band) "That's the Way of the World" "September" "Let's Groove" "It's All About Love" "Boogie Wonderland" and more
@@jamelakajamal how about Gino Vanelli ? his brother to brother album is a masterpiece with tracks such as Appaloosa , The River Must Flow , I just want to stop , wheels of life , brother to brother and people I belong to .. that's pretty much the whole album . lol . he was signed by herb alpert , the a in a&m records and he was the first major white act to play soul train .
I know a lot of other reactors copy what you react too. I don't mind this drum battle because it should be seen more! Thank for reacting to this song !
Godsmack is a band that started in 1996, and from Boston, Sully as said below is the lead singer and Godsmack is BAD ASS. Their Album When legends rise is one their best since Awake! Love this solo, seen it three times live!
The react video I never knew I needed! Thank you Jamel! I'm hanging in there, hope you and everyone else are hanging in there. I'm learning to count my blessings more and more often nowadays, share the love everyone and stand strong!
Jamel, I just wanted to say that I love your T-shirt. What a great message and you have a wonderful platform to use your voice and beautiful messages for people to hear what you have to say. I’m going to get your face mask because I really like it. I wish you all the best and I’ll watch your videos periodically because I enjoy your love of music and reactions to music that I love. God bless you friend. Good luck through these difficult times in the pandemic and the terrible things happening with people being involved with the protests, violence and crime. I support peaceful protesters. I’m a bed ridden person and I can relate to things in a new way since becoming disabled. I worked for a police department and also a district attorney’s office. I’ve seen the positive and the negative things that people do in powerful positions. I’m bringing this up now because of your messages of peace and love, you’re an African American man who seems to bring a voice of positivity and I appreciate that. Well done. May people like you be heard not just nowadays, but always.
16 TONS ERNIE FORD CHARLES BRADLEY CHANGES make sure you get the one where it just him and the guitarist. The brief interview is soul touching. THE WHOLE SONG IS SOUL TOUCHING.
Thank you for doing this reaction! Please do more Godsmack! Voodoo, Sick of Life, Serenity, Spiral, just to name a few. Thank you 🙏🏾 😊 this made my day 😁
I’ve seen Godsmack live like at least 5 times (Not enough times). And this is their like stamp on their love shows. Sully Erna is the lead singer and he plays the drums, he’s on the left (the one playing congos with his hands). The drummer on the right is Shannon Larkin, and he is the main drummer. He’s just AMAZING! Godsmack is just freaking AWESOME LIVE! 😁❤️
Holy snap! Sully and Shannon are both killin' it!!! Sully plays everything well! Guitar, drums, piano and who knows what else! And of course awesome vocals! He is a self proclaimed "street kid"...but he made himself a success!!
when i was in college, many years ago, i did backstage work for touring concerts. godsmack came one year. we built the stage, loaded bands equipment and then tore everything down after. it was back-breaking work. anyway, it was around the time godsmack switched drummers. it was so long ago, I don't remember the exact year, but it was around 2002-2003. for some reason, i still remember during soundcheck, sully was drunk out of his mind lol and he was fighting with the drummer. he kept going on the drums and showing the drummer what he wanted, but kept getting annoyed when the drummer wasn't getting it... i'm guessing that was the previous drummer and not shannon larkin lol
That was probably Tommy Stewart, their previous drummer. I think he quit the band in 2002. I saw Godsmack at the Rolling Rock Town Fair that summer (it was the only show they played that year IIRC), and Shannon was behind the kit
@@atomictuna5784 Interesting! I looked it up and it was actually in the Fall of 2003 they played at university at buffalo. I worked all the Spring Fest and Fall Fest shows. So I guess it was actually Shannon Larkin! Crazy, cuz he was ripping him hard lol Or maybe I misinterpreted their workmanship. Not trying to slam Sully, he was super cool to all of us backstage and other than that incident, he was cool. Maybe that's just their way of trying to make themselves better... i think he's just passionate about what he's doing... seemed pretty drunk too, so that can always bring out some passion lol
I was actually at this show. The drummer that got brought on stage was Sully. He is actually Godsmack's vocalist. Great reaction....but you need to do more Nightwish.
Yes! You need to do some other Godsmack reactions, they rock! And just for fun see the drum battle between Chad Smith of RHCP and Will Ferrell, too funny!
Before Sully was the lead singer of Godsmack, he was a drummer in another band. He felt that band wasn't going to make it so he decided to leave and become one of the founders of Godsmack. He also chose to come out from behind the drum set and be the singer. What many do not know is when godsmack's first album was recorded, he played most of the drums on that album. They're great to see in concert. I have all their albums, I've seen them two or three times in concert, they're not my favorite band. But I must say they might be my favorite show. They sound perfect, great show, and many bands don't perform all that great in concert. But these guys are A+...
Imagine seeing this live when you were twelve not knowing the gravity of the situation or the complete dedication and skill involved. Only to start playing music and seeing them 3 more times and realizing how amazing this whole thing is in person. It was mind blowing once i had a better understanding of music its impossible to describe unless you were there and I've been there 4 times lol
I've seen them live 3 times in Toronto, and the drum battle was performed at two of those shows. Sully(lead singer/guy of the congas) is a talented musician and Shannon Larkin(their full time drummer) is a beast.
I’m pretty sure they do this at every or almost every show. Some people get tired of it, but who cares? Sully is amazing, he can pretty much do it all and seeing this live as I have a couple times is awesome. My wife had no idea he could play drums like that when we saw them play. Their self titled album is badass, should start checking out more from them.
That whole show was recorded on dvd and to this day still one of the best music dvds I own. If you ever get the chance it’s a good concert all the way through ✌🏻
That " ba na duh da "snippet you used to dance to is actually the great Neil Pearts "YYZ" intro. See, you were reacting to Neal before you knew about him. That's what music does! This is up there with the best of em .The timing here is remarkable
I got to see it live, it's amazing and I caught Sullys stick you should watch the whole concert but if you want to see and hear how good they really are.Watch an Evening with godsmack
There is nothing like the energy when you see them do this live, which I have had the good fortune to see it 5 or 6 times. They do this so that you don't just get a "typical drum solo", gives you a little something special...unique to Godsmack. Sully Erna is the lead singer, he is the one who came out from the left and was playing the bongos. Shannon is the regular drummer. The snippets of songs were YYZ by RUSH, Walk This Way by Aerosmith, and Moby Dick by Led Zeppelin.
They do this for just pure fun!! They play so well together. They throw in drum parts from bands they admire, Rush, Aerosmith, led Zeppplin then back to finish with Rush song Tom Sawyer. Sully is a multi talet musician can play all instruments so much fun..

Shannon Larkin is the guy that starts on the drums, Sully is on the congas. Sully is the singer for the band. Godsmack has quite few great songs worthy of your reaction!
Most importantly strait out of line, awake, greed, or I stand alone
It's hard to think of it as a battle when they compliment each other so well 😊
That was a snippet of YYZ by Rush and then Walk this Way by Aerosmith you were referring to. Then Moby Dick and Tom Sawyer
yep, you beat me to it. :)
Also the version of walk this way with Aerosmith and RUN DMC
You mention Rush & Aerosmith by name, but just slide past Led Zep' with not even a nod? Pffft!
@@isaachunt7107 ummmm Moby Dick?
Exactly 💯
Sully is actually the lead singer, and he's the one playing with his hands.
I seen these guys back in 97 in Minneapolis, a band from Australia called Spoon opened for them , they were very good too.
Sully was also the he drummer for Ugly Kid Joe!
@@keeyoki1 I think you meant that Shannon Larkin was their drummer.
I stand corrected.
Sully is a drummer.
They do small samples of some of their favorite artists towards the end. The first one that you recognized was the intro to Rush - YYZ. They are both in the band. Shannon is the 'official' drummer, but Sully is also an accomplished drummer, guitarist, and their lead singer. I've seen them do this live and it's awesome. I consider it more 'tandem drumming' than an actual drum battle, as they aren't trying to outdo each other.
Don't forget keyboard. Sully can play almost any instrument.
True, I personally consider it a drum duet accompanied by guitar and bass.
My son was one of the kids in Godsmack's "Unforgettable" video. :-D He's the kid in the yellow shirt in the thumbnail!
That’s really Fk cool Bro
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Saw Shannon when he was with the band Wrathchild later known as wrathchild America and actually drank a beer with the band at the Masquerade in Atlanta 1991. I have a drum stick with his signature shannon xxx on them .
Thank you! I was trying to remember where I knew his name, because it sounded so familiar. Those old Wrathchild albums were great.
@@Brandonmtlhd love that band.Climbing the walls and 3D man great albums Saw them many times in Cincinnati . They changed again to Souls at Zero.

It’s really cool to see that you seemingly were having a blast watching this. 🙂👍👍
This is SO fun to see live. I was lucky enough to catch one of Sully's drumsticks during the "IV" tour, too.
Thanks us drummers need love too and you are bringing it, boy I need to practice alot more.
I saw them when they came to Salt Lake City last October, it was awesome to watch this live! It snowed the whole show and they still killed it.

Yes most definitely

You should do “Voodoo” and “I Stand Alone” and just more! Don’t play poker with Sully. You’ll loose. Sully has the long sideburns.

I love godsmack, and those are two of my favorite songs.
Or 10,000 hp that is my wife's and mine favourite and the 2 you chose are my previous long time favourites
Yes, I Stand Alone live from their DVD is one of my all time favorite live performances by any band.
Voodoo too is soooo underrated it's one of my faves
I saw this live at Camden, New Jersey about 6 years. Incredible
Holy snap! Sully and Shannon are both killin' it!!! Sully plays everything well! Guitar, drums, piano and who knows what else! And of course awesome vocals! He is a self proclaimed "street kid"...but he made himself a success!!
This is my absolute favorite drum skit ever. I never saw Godsmack live yet, but plan on it. This band is top notch.
Godsmacks drumming as always had this special place on my heart..almost like a tribal feel but always energetic and entertaining
What I love about your channel is you genuinely live that shirt.
Seen this live twice it was amazing both times!
when i was in college, many years ago, i did backstage work for touring concerts. godsmack came one year. we built the stage, loaded bands equipment and then tore everything down after. it was back-breaking work. anyway, it was around the time godsmack switched drummers. it was so long ago, I don't remember the exact year, but it was around 2002-2003. for some reason, i still remember during soundcheck, sully was drunk out of his mind lol and he was fighting with the drummer. he kept going on the drums and showing the drummer what he wanted, but kept getting annoyed when the drummer wasn't getting it... i'm guessing that was the previous drummer and not shannon larkin lol
That was probably Tommy Stewart, their previous drummer. I think he quit the band in 2002. I saw Godsmack at the Rolling Rock Town Fair that summer (it was the only show they played that year IIRC), and Shannon was behind the kit
@@atomictuna5784 Interesting! I looked it up and it was actually in the Fall of 2003 they played at university at buffalo. I worked all the Spring Fest and Fall Fest shows. So I guess it was actually Shannon Larkin! Crazy, cuz he was ripping him hard lol Or maybe I misinterpreted their workmanship. Not trying to slam Sully, he was super cool to all of us backstage and other than that incident, he was cool. Maybe that's just their way of trying to make themselves better... i think he's just passionate about what he's doing... seemed pretty drunk too, so that can always bring out some passion lol
Shannon actually lives here in my current hometown in Florida!! Shoutout to GODSMACK!! Peace and Love and God Bless!
Just chills and happiness. Thank you !
Godsmack is one of my favorite bands! I'm so glad you reacted to this.
You should check out some of their videos for a reaction video.
Been waiting all day for you to come on lol 😆 thanks for sharing✌
One of the BEST drum battles ever!!
I was actually at this show. The drummer that got brought on stage was Sully. He is actually Godsmack's vocalist. Great reaction....but you need to do more Nightwish.
#Godsmack is absolutely friggin #amazing LIVE. Love your vids!!! Keep on #rockin! \m/
I love this never knew this existed but sure am glad I watched this they are both excellent
Hello Precious. So glad I caught you live💜
I got to see this at Irvine Meadows in CA. years back with Rob Zombie. I'm not a huge Godsmack fan but the drum duel was absolutely epic.
Yes! You need to do some other Godsmack reactions, they rock! And just for fun see the drum battle between Chad Smith of RHCP and Will Ferrell, too funny!
Before Sully was the lead singer of Godsmack, he was a drummer in another band. He felt that band wasn't going to make it so he decided to leave and become one of the founders of Godsmack. He also chose to come out from behind the drum set and be the singer. What many do not know is when godsmack's first album was recorded, he played most of the drums on that album. They're great to see in concert. I have all their albums, I've seen them two or three times in concert, they're not my favorite band. But I must say they might be my favorite show. They sound perfect, great show, and many bands don't perform all that great in concert. But these guys are A+...
The Allimate of KICKING ASSSSSSSSSSSSSS ON THOSE DRUMS 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Imagine seeing this live when you were twelve not knowing the gravity of the situation or the complete dedication and skill involved. Only to start playing music and seeing them 3 more times and realizing how amazing this whole thing is in person. It was mind blowing once i had a better understanding of music its impossible to describe unless you were there and I've been there 4 times lol
I've seen them live 3 times in Toronto, and the drum battle was performed at two of those shows. Sully(lead singer/guy of the congas) is a talented musician and Shannon Larkin(their full time drummer) is a beast.
I’m pretty sure they do this at every or almost every show. Some people get tired of it, but who cares? Sully is amazing, he can pretty much do it all and seeing this live as I have a couple times is awesome. My wife had no idea he could play drums like that when we saw them play. Their self titled album is badass, should start checking out more from them.
That whole show was recorded on dvd and to this day still one of the best music dvds I own. If you ever get the chance it’s a good concert all the way through ✌🏻
Where was it recorded at?? That way if i can find it now i'll know which one i'm looking for.
sixpack375 it’s called changes from 2004 I believe.
Thanks Bill. I'll see if Amazon has it.
Sully on left and Shannon right. It was Rush and then Aerosmith "Walk this Way"
Hey Tony, also don't forget a little Led Zep : Moby Dick too
That " ba na duh da "snippet you used to dance to is actually the great Neil Pearts "YYZ" intro. See, you were reacting to Neal before you knew about him. That's what music does! This is up there with the best of em .The timing here is remarkable
I got to see it live, it's amazing and I caught Sullys stick you should watch the whole concert but if you want to see and hear how good they really are.Watch an Evening with godsmack
There is nothing like the energy when you see them do this live, which I have had the good fortune to see it 5 or 6 times. They do this so that you don't just get a "typical drum solo", gives you a little something special...unique to Godsmack. Sully Erna is the lead singer, he is the one who came out from the left and was playing the bongos. Shannon is the regular drummer. The snippets of songs were YYZ by RUSH, Walk This Way by Aerosmith, and Moby Dick by Led Zeppelin.
So many good songs , I have they’re sun logo tattooed on me because I love them so much 🤘
They do this for just pure fun!! They play so well together. They throw in drum parts from bands they admire, Rush, Aerosmith, led Zeppplin then back to finish with Rush song Tom Sawyer. Sully is a multi talet musician can play all instruments so much fun..
Saw this live in Houston last year.. was bad ass! 🤘
