Like that one guitarist in Maroon 5 said in an interview is to serve the song.

To be fair they have clicks in concerts

@@Jump-2-the-moon ....? The "basic" playing is exactly burt's point. Brendan Buckley is insanely good and he knows that he plays drums to do what's best for the music at that moment. Shakira is who they came to see at this concert. It would be unprofessional to take away from letting her shine.

So you are saying Eric Moore isn't a professional? 😂

burt turdison totally agree, he said in an interview for gear goggles that his job is to make everyone else as comfortable as humanly possible and he kicks ass at it.

Shuggadugga thanks!!!

Shuggadugga your comment is perfect 👌🏼 i’m a drummer too and i really appreciate Mr. Brendan B. 🥁🎶...and the words you said

Shuggadugga “pro drummer” lol nice

Decades isn't it? Keep the customer satisfied. "Time of your life eh kid?"

Wiktor Pogoda thanks Wiktor!

facts!

Zachary Christopherr thanks! 🙏

Thanks Gene.

@Jamis Ins Show me your grooves then, then I'll let you know when I'm impressed. :-/

The worst thing about guys like this +Jamis is they're about hate and putting people down. While the successful ones continue to soar. Stop dragging us down with your negativity and bad attitude. Get a life!

okay, I respect your opinion. That is yours. Mine is mine. Moving on, I had the same initial impression when watching Jonathan Sagarfoot Moffett on Drumeo. I found his fills boring. But then I realized he is just playing his parts for MJ's songs. Quite a veteran drummer though.

Good for you for thinking you are better than him. Not everyone is Dave Weckl, Buddy Rich or Dennis Chambers. He got this gig playing for one of the biggest acts in the world and you did not. He is nice enough to post videos showing us what it is like sitting from behind the kit with Shakira. I think he does a great job. That is my opinion, and obviously (more importantly) Shakira's. Good luck to you in getting the gigs by telling everyone that you are better than they are. I hope that works for you. Thank-you Brendan for posting. Not the type of music I would listen to but always interested in how people cover all the sounds in pop music like this. Keep up the great work!

Dude, thanks so much for pointing that out. At first I couldn't figure out what it was and thought it might be a percussion player or something. I need to try that! Thank you :)

yeah and to be honest, that's not even "simple" at all

🙂

I see what he is doing. His fucking Job and he is doing it Great.

I've been drumming for over 7 years ruthlessly. I can rightfully say that he is a true professional. To play as tightly and consistently as he does takes ages, to be able to play these beats with this ease also means that you are able to play much more difficult pieces as well. Cause Brendan can play incredibly complex rhythms from African tradition and such. He never really plays them but that added skill makes the songs he plays that much easier and fluid more wiggle room for error's and have them be totally unnoticeable.

@@inoayh The fact that there's sheet music on the laptops next to him disqualifies pretty much all of the guys in the comments from this gig, too.

I saw people saying it was fake which is not true I’m related to him he’s my dads cousin so I know he plays for real

Niklas Karvonen travis still stuck at 2

@@toadetteremotewithwiimotio3330 Travis Barker? Even when he plays complex patterns, not only he keeps the beat amazingly but also uses his drum set in a very musical way. In fact there's a lot of videos explaining how he relies more on the instrument he uses than on the dynamics to create different musical landscapes

Niklas Karvonen I started a couple months ago I practice daily for an hour or two during this break and I’m definitely on 2 but I’m starting to chart songs and work on theory and my timing is still terrible I hope to become a legend like Brendan one day

I’m a bit of all to be honest.

i skipped 2

Thank you.

Согласен полностью!

Harris Adhi you can do it Harris.

it's easy believe! Because you don't see persons! You see just a crowd! Personaly, i think, playing in small clubs is more difficult because, I can see each one of them! But sorry to interupt! Τhe man himelf replied, but couldn't resist to comment :D

@@stavrosmeggos8972 I remember the first time I played drums on stage...I was literally shitting myself haha...But now I don't even notice the crowds :P

Playing for 25 years and you still think staying in time is not easy.... Perhaps you should play something different.

@Arthur Donjuan Song is not complex....at all. Trust me, this does not weigh on me in the least. Also, you're name is not "News20" and, I reiterate, if you have trouble staying in time after 25 years of playing....well....
