His Mandela pads have 128 strike points arranged in 7 concentric circles. He also switches to the Korg WD-1 wave drum that he has programmed to sound like a tabla drum, which is just to his right of the rack toms. Solid reaction and observations. Love Danny. One of the most dynamic drummers ever and still monstrous at 58 ( this was recorded just before his 59th Birthday). ✌🤘🤘

At 58 years old Danny's sick time signatures and raw power is beyond comprehension. Probably one of the top drummers on the planet.

Glad to see you noticed the "hesitation" at 12:32. I feel like that was his only real slip in the entire performance. This was a really cool analysis/reaction of his drumming. Thanks!

You spotted the nuances, the ridiculous stuff... Yet you also spotted that tiny moment when he got distracted. You got an ear, my friend. Subbed.

More drum reviews please. Listening to someone who has some sort of understanding makes them all the more better. Talk when you want. Your channel.

The thing I find most impressive about Danny's drumming is his dynamics. He's able to control the levels of every hit near flawlessly in a musical way I have never hears before from a drummer. You can really hear it at the breakdown with the crazy polyrhythm swiss triplet with the rim shots fading in and out. He replicates is so well live.

I was watching this performance from the fourth row, basically in front of Danny. So good. I also got to see part of their sound check; they performed Descending, which they didn’t do during the actual concert.

That was fun to watch with an obvious real drummer. Great breakdown! I'm a self taught closet drummer that can cover some Tool songs (never this one) so I enjoy the drumming intelect you have and am going to check out your stuff right now! I will never forget the first of many times I saw Tool. Seattle 1992 at an all ages place called DV8. Henry Rollins was headlining with "special guest".. It was Tool right in the middle of grunge heaven and holy crap did they blow the house down!! I bought the EP from Adam and the journey of Tool began. Still have that ticket stub!

Danny's drumsticks look like hummingbird wings.

Nice reaction. The one thing people who cover this and talk about forget to mention is that he also wrote this shit as well as playing it. the creativity and skill is off the chart not to mention blended perfectly with his band mates!

I know a metronome that has a Danny Carey tattoo.

Aloke Dutta is the tabla drummer he studied with

That tiny screw up at the end almost proves that he's capable of using both his left and right brain independently and simultaniously similar to high level professional athletes. I bet his hand eye coordination is off the charts and his dexterity is obviously insane. And in that moment his left and right just weren't on the same page lol

IMHO, you provided the best analysis of D.C 's drumming on Pnuema. Good work, respect.

Great reaction/analysis, you definitely know your stuff brotha!

You caught that little hesitation near the end nobody catches, nice.

Danny is 58. Just peaking.

Probably one of the best analysis of this video ever. Great stuff dude.

“Just that right there is hard to do” wait a couple minutes my friend. Thanks for the video!

ordinary drummer add rudiments =extra ordinary drummer....love that snare though man this is awesome

So gifted!

Great reaction!

That break down changes from a 5/4 to 4/4 to 3/4 to 2/4 it’s a vulgar display of power

He is playing in tune with the lyrics.

The teacher you're speaking of may be Aloke Dutta

You could call it 33/16 as it resolves but it's really 14/8 and 19/8 alternating.

All that set up and the mic is in your face. :)

Nice job, I wish there were more drum cam videos of Danny. Also nice shirt, Ive only ran a couple of things from them over years, maybe you will be in a Bhodi shirt in another reaction.

You picked Danny as your first reaction vid. Dude.

Dusty at 8:50- 'What the hell?' Yea- i said the same thing right from the beginning. When the Mount Rushmore or drummers is built, Danny will be on it. Cheers!

I've seen this video a lot of times and it never gets old. Tool as a band are perfectionist. They are all really really good at what they do. please do a reaction on jay Weinberg drum can orphan. He's totally a badass on the drums

14/8 and 19/8 for verse

Pause for the cause, man! I want to hear you both.

Welcome to the Tool Army and the world of Reacts! 21 subscribers? Let's get you up and out there!

Yup. Boston.

DNA genetics!!!!

Cool video bro, liked the analysis, please react to Tool-Triad drum cam, the video is slightly better quality on his website

'Nice Choke"

Danny is a basketball player who has unfortunately been forced into playing drums. Almost “his words”.

I never would've dream a roto tom could sound that good. Is he rim-shotting it?

That is why he is known as the octopus

Uhh, the best in the world now that Neil Peirt left us!!

Danny's "click track" is Adam Jones

Check Please polnisch drummer Mgła: exercises in futility 5 live koncert

You'll learn to pause when you want to speak so that you are not talking over the video

If you saw them in LA before COVID, how did you not catch this song? Hmmmm

Wow, you really like to talk through these videos, don't you
