LOL!!

What’s that even for?

@@audric9707 so the drums are not super loud for the other members

@@audric9707 it also gives the sound people behind a bunker in the back of the stage more control over the sound and mixing.

@@audric9707 sound control.

*sight read but I agree with you

This guy is bad ass!!!!!

@@anael169 Weird flex, but ok.

4:55

Loll

Your a drummer , he's a professional musician .

@@metalheadblues you're

Same

I feel exactly the same

Practice dude :D

I think that the 2 Bars Until Kashmir started as soon as the vocal started, and in addition I think when the click track says "1 + 2 + 3 +" it means "1 2 3 4 5 6" - may have been a time signature issue. Sorry for the essay but that's what I though went on!

What's the song called i can barely remember it

Coyote Effect superstition

Its a kind of a songo

Ur profile looks scary af

you can't be any worse than that guitarist lol

I believe he’s paying homage to the great Gene Krupa….. and what a skillful and fun tribute it was! 🙂 ukposts.info/have/v-deo/kqB9l4SCp52nk58.html

Yeah there are definitely no cruise ships in Nashville let alone the ocean, that might pose a problem for finding work lmao

I’m driving to Nashville rn

Thanks a ton man! Sounds like we have had pretty similar experiences! On my last contract I didn’t eat in the crew mess once for 4 months 😂.

@@DavidColaDrums Hi Dave. I hear you about the crew mess. I couldn't wait to get to the port of Miami after the 7 day cruise was over so i could walk over to the mall and eat some pizza and fries. LOL Then back on the ship with the new passengers and waited to eat at the Capt buffets etc. All in all i had a great time and i would do another Cruise.

Hi Anthony. When were you on the cruise ships? I did 5 years mostly on the original RCCL ships (Song of Norway, Sun Viking and Nordic Prince) back in the 70s when they were 18,000 tons. We played for the cruise staff show and the visiting artists who varied from 'Why isn't this artist a star?' to 'I assume this artist cannot get any on-shore gigs!!'. Great fun though and my playing and reading improved a lot and I met my wife to be.

@@210caulfield Hi Vincent. I played on the ships in the early 90's. Sovereign of the Seas 2x and The Song of America. It was a great experience for me. I became friends with the musicians that worked for the company. We would get together during the day and go play in the main showroom. We would pick charts and try to play them down. I met lots of great players on the ships and didn't do bad financially either. I wouldn't mind playing on a few ships now. Thank you for messaging me. Have a great night!

Anthony Liberto Not surprisingly things were different in the small ship days, 750 passengers and 300 crew. We were two in a cabin above the water line and ate in the passenger dining room (only 1) but in the tables by the galley doors! We also got newbie waiters or ones on probation. There were only 3 bands, organ duo, organ trio for the nightclub shows and quintet for the main shows and cruise staff shows. Worst thing was we had to walk around the dining room and play music relating to the themed dinner, Italian, Caribbean, America night. We hated that and often went through so fast the C Director would make us do another round!! Lol. Lifeboat still was a drag too because on the one week cruise we did it in St Thomas which was the favorite stop (Nassau, San Juan) so we didn’t get off until around 11. Musically it was the era of My Way and Feelings for the singers so not too challenging. Main shows always had a singer, specialty act and then a comedian. Some were cool and of course some were ‘ball breakers’ but I enjoyed it. I wonder how David got away with videoing so much and I’m impressed with the quality of his shipboard videos. Great drummer and seems like a fun guy. Are you still playing? I met my wife and then got into the hotel business and 5 kids do playing stopped. Now I’m retired I am playing in local blues jams and I’m enrolled in jazz combos at a local college in Orange County, Ca.

I'm a cruise ship musician and if you can't sight read well you don't get another contract. I actually really enjoy the challenge, it makes you a super confident player.

@@brassholio Yeah there's no chance I'd get a first contract lol

@@anael169 shut up Dave

@@anael169 yes it is

tbh i can't even hear his guitar xD

lmao

Matthew Young Shut up lithuanian

Chase they are! That and the bass!!

lol no shit.

Without drums all the other musicians would be clueless lol

Michaël Debrier true

maybe the budget was spent on the drummer but not on the guitarist

David Cola is in a separate category. He's incredibly versatile. He can sight read music unbelievably. He can play anything for anybody. Don't knock the rocker guitarist just because David is so good. Both are commercial quality, and if you think you could perform with a guitar in either's level, I'd love it here it.

@@whimpypatrol5503 that guitarist had absolutely awful rhythm, he was playing every riff off tempo

I had no idea who you were talking about till I got to that part and noticed literally immediately

@@whimpypatrol5503 That was pretty awful. Any decent guitar player can outperform that...he is not commercial quality from a guitar playing perspective...entertainment wise, maybe. sjBCqZwxV5U There's a crappy live video.

He can play a lot of styles but just mediocre at best in each and doesn't really excel in any of them.

@@muchogusto9957 ..I'm a jazz drummer and clearly see he has good chops in most genres of music like any session musician has .. Even at his own admission David is not comfortable in the jazz arena but can adequately play jazz to get him through. .. Let's see you upload your amazing drum skills .. neanderthal!! Come on internet idiot please enlighten us with your drum skills .Please upload your drumming videos!!!

Yes. You are correct. He is adequate enough to get by in multiple genres. Isn't good enough to be a signed musician in any one of them. As for my playing, I'm a total Neanderthal heavy metal drummer. I've been in enough bands and on enough albums were I have nothing to prove anyone. I never claimed to be good in multiple genres. I stick with what I do best.

Can we get some links to your stuff maestro?

Mucho Gusto He is absolutely good enough to be endorsed, signed and successful. Many inferior drummers have gotten away with much more. His rhythm is on point, he can read music, his dynamics are solid, he can improvise, chops are clean and he has an ear for/plays to the music. You really can’t ask for more than that in a drummer. Not to mention he appears to be about 24-26 years old, tops. He’s well in his prime and has an apparent enthusiasm that would lead me to believe he’s pushing his ability further all the time. I understand it’s your opinion but I strongly, and respectfully, disagree.

What is a title of this song ?
