Saw my first Rock Concert there recently, The Doobie Brothers. The concert was awesome.
God Damm drummer doesn't show much respect for u Bruh. Damm didn't even say thanks man appreciate u. Unbelievable nothing. Fist bump he's fucking gone. Hope he's paying u well
When ur standing back there 6 minutes in, imagine a real kit up on that stage. That's what I'm talking about. After u set up 10 minutes LOL ur guys toy kit, walk back to that same spot. I promise u u will be l8ke what the fuck.
Two travel cases for drums. Un fucking believable. Guitar dudes probably have more. HaHa yeah Dawg. Tech for some real men real drummers yo. Feel me Dawg.
STF!
Watched All The Way Through And These Videos Fascinates Me. Thank You Sharing Behind The Scenes. Had No Idea You Could Tune Drums. Lol (You Can Laugh… I'm A Woman) ????
Just leave your tune bot in the one spot it will pick up the rest of your lugs dude????
A lot of nature at this venue, pretty neat! Neature walk! Fun seeing White River Amph from the backside for once!
Why are there cables coming out of the tom and floor toms?
What stick holders are thoes? 🙂
it's hard work taking care of a full drum set. you have to love what you do. congrats on another tour Matt.
23:25 I hear Zelda Music in the background, must be someone's ringtone
Lol when you said.. I've got two fans right here… I was like.. huh they let 'm on stage ? xD
'the key was never seen again' killed me lmao
Matt, what is Luke trying to achieve by putting the black dot heads on the bottom of the toms? I have been in the business since 1978 and I have never seen a black dot on the bottom before.
Hi Matt, how you doing? I am Roberto from Mexico, my friends & family call me Bobby ????. I really like your videos, they are very illustrative and have helped me better understand what the activities of a drum tech are generally. I think it would be very cool of you could make a video of that first meeting with the drummer you are going to tech to understand the agreements you reach, so we can "close the cycle" of drum tech. Cheers
If you wanna see a DC Stone Cold collab gimme a "hell yeah!"
Cool video. And even cooler You are getting to do what you love with some good meals tossed in. That catering looked tasty indeed! And that is the KEY to a GOOD LIFE without regrets – DO WHAT YOU LOVE! Life Without Music (and drums) Would be a Mistake! (Everything in the Universe resonates with sound and Frequency. It is the basis of everything including Life in the Universe. To deny Music is to deny Life). Peace.
Dude I love white river. Such a gorgeous venue.
Awesome video! I saw Rush in that venue for their Time Machine tour, Aug 2010… damn, time flies.

Hello Matt, I enjoy your videos quite a bit. I’m also a drummer in the local cover band scene in Mpls, just part time though as I have a day job and play for fun. Currently I’m not in a band but I do tech for a friend and his cover band and it’s a lot of fun just being around a band and shows even though I’m not playing. Like you I’d rather be actually playing the gigs but for now this will do. Anyway I enjoy seeing the bts action with real pros so keep it up, I’ll be watching.
oOooOOoO upgradess
missed ya buddy.
Looking forward to Friday at Jiffy Lube Live. I'm not sure why Live Nation says the venue is in Bristow VA – there's a larger town (Gainesville VA) a lot closer to the venue. Oh well. In honor of my first rock concert in…. 30 years or so, I've learned the lyrics to "Zombified" so I'll be singing along to at least one of FiR's songs. I probably won't see you Matt because the gates won't open until 4:45 so have a good show!
EDIT: Well, I suppose we'll get to see you doing a final sound check after Dance Gavin Dance's set. I'll bellow out a "MAAATTTT!" sometime then. ????
19:36
So this is how guitarists feel when we solo as they tune :O
39:30 what the tittle of that song?
Might as well make a small cheat sheet sticker to put it on top of the tuner. No need to check your phone then.
Honestly, I think this should be a game. First person. Like drum tech simulator.
DR Drums are gorgeous!
What type of tape are you using on the carpet??
Love these vids! I don’t tour at this level, but it’s so cool to see it all come together. (Also, that kick head looks like it’s ready to go lol)
How we know Matt is a beast: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/jONKrIEe0cQ
Ain't never seen him deal with this bs lolz
STF crew here???? im working as a sound engineer and love drums so all of these videos are perfect. Couldnt help noticing theyve added another sub on the sidefill that must be kicking ass!
STF
STF every single video
STF crew, baby! Thanks for the new video, Matt. Looking forward to more from this current tour.
W for Chris ????
S to the F
Is the 18in new ?
Meh. Needs more cowbell.
when u come to the london o2 arena please do a video there. its my favourite venue
Es genial lo que haces! Saludos desde Argentina! Siempre miro tus videos.
Man I wanna do this for a living , lifestyle. A have a professional friend in a band I know everyone here knows. I told him at the show I just seen him at I wanna do this. Guitar tech though. He said always a spot of you’re halfway good. This was last week. I cant stop thinking about it. Same reason watching this video. I love it.
You killed the drum sound for day 1 here in Idaho! LOVE YOU GUYS!
