I've seen this live. It's amazing. Godsmack puts on great shows.

The winner in that battle is the crowd getting to see it live 🤘

When I first seen your comment, I did a double-take… My brain processed it as “The crowd is the winner, FORGETTING to witness this” 🤣 I was thinking, what in the…? 😂

My exact thoughts

Sully and Shannon are fucking bad asses

Huge Godsmack fan! Have been for 20 years. Seen them 10 times. And now at age 55. I still saw them last summer.

Sully is so talented in all instruments not only drums he can play bass, and lead guitar and amazing on the piano, I've had the pleasure of meeting Sully twice at the world series of poker 2 years in a row as he was seated at my table, and knocked me out the second year you can see it on TV where he knocks me out Buddy Ryan , but he is an amazing guy to talk to so down to earth and likes to laugh alot .... so likable ... that's my story of sully , at the same time I believe he's the best singer on the planet

One of the best hard rock show that i ever see

It’s not just their great musicians but masters at chord progression and song construction lol.

Saw these guys twice in concert out here in Las Vegas!!!! My FAVORITE rock band and Shannon Larkin, my favorite drummer!!!! Damn shame they’re retiring!!!!

Met Sully at an outdoor event . He was a very nice man and a good person. I was working the autograph tent as a volunteer for my daughters music teacher's school.

Been a big Godsmack fan for a long time. Finally saw them live a few months ago. What a great performance and the drum battle was amazing to see live. I'll definitely go see them again.

Ever since I saw that drum battle for the first time. Probably a year ago. It's the best drum solo that I've ever seen.🎶🥁🥁🎶🤗👍

They compliment each other really well. Right in the pocket!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘

Seeing this live is something to behold. It really is soul lifting. It's a full sensory experience.

I saw this show in August 2001! INCREDIBLE!🔥🔥🔥🔥

These guys are insanely awesome live. to include this drum battle

I’ve been to several GS shows and have seen this multiple times. It’s awesome every time.

A friend of mine won a copy of the "Changes" DVD in a magazine competition, after he let me borrow it for a while I had to get a copy of my own. Fantastic live footage, and the drum battle here is the centrepiece (more or less). Both Sully and Shannon have very similar styles & play off of each other on the drums very well.

You should see it live. It's better when you can feel the energy.

I've got to see it twice after the first time. I told my wife I wanted to learn the drums... she looked at me like 🤪...3 yrs later 2nd time she knew I was serious. Found a used set and loven it 😁 awesome stress reliever and fun as hell too play alone to favorite songs. I've got a goal to play ... Devil in I.. by the time I turn 50, so 1 more yr to get dubs down 😆🤞

Love GODSMACK!! Seen them LIVE 6 times

I have seen Godsmack 3x and loved every second

You got to see it live !!! Omgoodness amazing !! I've seen the 9 times !!

Exactly right. He should do 1000hp. Love that song.

Wasnt a real big god smack fan till i saw this in person when they opened for metallica. So badass!!

This is my favorite drum battle 👍☝️

The drummer is Shannon Larkin, his first band was Wrathchild America. Some excellent playing on those two albums

@@joefilipelli3867 cool. I didn't know that

There is no loser here! Two very talented musicians showing off what they got!! They do rehearse this for the main riffs but the fills they don't practice that way the can improvise and do it a little different night and I think that makes more fun for them and for the crowd. I've seen Godsmack several times live and it's always a good show see. Shannon Larkin is one of my favorite drummers out there but Sully is no slouch either and I love the hand percussion he throws into the mix.

Huge Godsmack fan! Started with them at age 35 and now I’m 55. I’ve seen them in concert a half dozen times. Boston Strong.

My#1 since their first album. Seen this several times. My son's first concert.

I have seen it live as well and SO AMAZING!!!

My top shelf favorite of all time, has been for many years. I watched this in the old format but once they opened it up to HD I couldn't control the goosebumps every time. The perfect pair... Shannon and Sully. These guys are the shit. Sully sat behind the drums of a going no where band for 21 years....and finally said fuck this walked away and created Godsmack...the Legend.

HUGE Godsmack fan!!! Just listen to those drums 🥁 bongos. He plays the guitar 🎸 and signs without even trying ❤ 4:51

Big fan for 20 years

Awesome band saw them 3 times & will go again!😊

I love your passion. Godsmack fan here!

Honestly surprised it took this long. Lol. You're reactions on everything you do. By far some of the best. Your facial expressions. Your passion showing through. Keep it up.

I'm just going to say, I really like your reactions. I am 60 years old and I really like how you listen. On the normal reactions ,drummers have to break it down. Fuck that. Just enjoy great drummers. U do that. Thanks 😊

Seen this live soooooo many times. They are incredible......

Sully is the total package... voice, drums, guitar, keys... probably plays the kazoo with authority too.

i like to think of it more as a master + student exhibition than a battle.

Sully Erna actually started as a drummer himself before he got behind the mic. He was a drummer for Meliah Rage.

Colby its Jeff from The MCU'S Bleeding Edge dude, love your channel man, hey I caught Godsmack in Tampa with my Daughter like two months ago and they had a f'ing drum off at that show at the Ampitheater out there right outside Brandon. Dude they did everything bro I swear, Sully sounded as good as he did when i saw them in 1998 as a kid and they had a freaking drum off, they had a extended drum solo session deal with the main drummer where he used the bongos and all that shit, and then to top it off the band brought a bunch of random young kids on stage with them to help sing a song, i forget which one it was I was pretty well faded at that point my friend lol, i fan cammed some of the drum solo deal but i just have not had time to put up any of my show footage for months cause i go to so many shows man! I saw Shinedown and Papa Roach last month with another creator up in Tampa and i saw Fallout Boy the month before that again with my daughter it was a dope show man they suprisingly to me really killed it live and played a very long main set. Just wanted to peep you out man and let you know i caught the band doing this shit just a minute ago dude this is Godsmack on the reg apparently brah.

Love Godsmack!!!🤘😎🤘

I think we should see El estepario Siberiano play this 😎

I saw this live in Albuquerque NM in 2006.

I love Shannon Larkin! Amazing drummer, sully is holding his own pretty good but Shannon wins. 🎉

Imagine how much practice it took to get this tight and right! Imagine being the sound man who had to deal with two drumsets and get this mix right. This took so much work it would boggle the mind of the average fan. As a guitarist, I know how hard this was to get tight. Massive practice time and so many sleepless nights working this out. Not to mention all the rest of the show. Fans have no idea how hard musicians work to bring them a tight show. If they knew, they would fall down in awe of the hard work it takes to put on a pro show.

I have seen them 5 times and saw this live, amazing.

Seen it live 2x amazing both times...

Saw them back in 2015 on my bday and i saw videos of this drum and loved it and they did it at the concert i was at and it sounded just as good as the videos i saw, what an amazing experience!

Godsmack...hell yeah. Sully is awesome. Shannon is a beast. Iam a drummer. I admire both dudes....

Sully rages! Such an artist extraordinaire

I am in love

Most certainly a god smack fan.

great vibes new sub cant wait for more!

Not really a Godsmack fan. But I have been in every way shape and form, a massive fan of this performance. It of course isn't truly a drum battle. More of a drum duo extravaganza. It is hands down one of the greatest percussion duo performances of all time. I do have a very difficult time believing that there are many drummers who don't already know and have seen this video though. At least not a drummer as old as you sir. It would be about as believable if you were to say......"Drum player here. I've been drumming for over 20 years. Today I will be reacting to some guy named Buddy Rich. Buddy Rich? Huh, I think I may have heard of him maybe. Don't believe I've ever seen him play though. Lets watch and see if he's any good. Don't forget to Like and Subscribe." Yeah, I wouldn't buy that for a second. It's about the same thing with this video here.

It's a very rehearsed show they're both very badass drummers I agree with Dave Hendricks 2418 The crowd is the winner I would feel privileged to have the guidance of Sully or Shannon or both in some drum lessons

Huge Fan!!!

Absolutly i am a huge fan of godsmack ❤

Finally you do this one

Cool

Where and when did they perform this battle?

T Hey didn't do that at rock fest in kc

I was there. Its was epic live!! I personally think Sully beat Shannon

Absolutely stunning both are incredible

This is glorious... Luv 'em Awesome

Still incredible

Yes I seen them at Rock fest in kcit turned into mud fest after I seen them I left walk around in ankle deep mud

I LOVED it!!!! ♥

Привет из России 🫶🤘 Godsmack навсегда!

Yes I am a godsmack fan

Qh hell yeah..Love them

Gobsmack fan!

Bad to the BONE

"Banging on the bongos like a chimpanzee"

I was never answered this question because people think I'm joking but is an honest one. Does Larkin headbutt a cymbal at 5:25? It sure looks like it!

I think the Crowd Won!!

Again, for a moment, remember me the dueto of Phil Collins (just for a moment). I like it.

Larkin is an absolute beast. If Animal from The Muppets could take human form… it would be Shannon 🤘

Shannon is a beast but Sully held his own!!!

They're timing was dead on

Tell you who wins, us

bongo drummer is the singer

I don't think the point of this is 'winning'. They are not really battling, it's a composed duo drum performance. Not sure why people call this a 'battle'. They are obviously not competing.

The other drumer is god smack new drummer

So your a drummer, and all you could say is “oh I guess they’re playing different songs now”?!?!?

Shannon Larkin is awesome, so underrated. Sully is solid. but i find this entire segment boring.

Suly is a way betr drumer than the outhr guy

You didn't even finish? Thumbs down.
