You play wonderfully . It's nice to see how much fun your work gives you.

She keeps drumming like that and she's got back problems and hip issues in her future. Sure, that kind of movement is great when you're young, but you end up paying for it later in life. See Alex Van Halen for proof.

Love the energy

that absolutely blew me away, i couldn't take my eyes off for a second i didn't even want to blink lol that was soooooo awsome. you killed that xxx

there's a whole other show going on at that set, how often can any one band member carry the show as well as the front man? pure entertainment! what a workout! Shania must run a happy shop, everyone is having so much fun.

@sidneywalker2117 Elia did something other than drum in 2023, but with Phil Rudd aging out, I consider E one of rhe top few pocket drummers out there. It's the arrangements and patterns. The flowing expression in her playing is impeccable.

Half of my recommended videos are drummers and the other half are Lord of the Rings videos. I feel like the algorithm just went "Ah fuck it, it's close enough". I was a bit disappointed not to see Frodo on the drums but I did enjoy watching you play!

@Christopher Stevenson Every musician that performs live uses in ears to hear their mix. If you'd ever played live on a large stage, you would know how hard it is to hear the other instruments. Also, Elijah's preferred pronoun is "they".

@010aray

2 жыл бұрын

@Christopher Stevenson Chuck Berry has been playing since before in ears were invented, not really a good example. To infer that someone like Shania Twain isn't serious about music is utterly laughable. Venues are booked based on crowd sizes and Shania draws stadium style crowds. Also, how do you know they are playing to a backing track? Obviously you're totally unaware of where live music has gone since, well, I guess you saw Chuck Berry live in 1950whatever. Live acts use: triggers, sampling pads, in ears, click tracks, etc. I've played dive bars on a stage that's maybe 6'x6' and if I didn't use my in ears to hear the bass and rhythm guitar I wouldn't be able to hear anything at all from the rest of the band. I guess it's easy to be snarky and suggest that someone performing with a major international act isn't very good at their instrument because they use in ears for listening to a mix as well as protecting their hearing. Maybe take up the drums, learn to keep solid time, and get on a stage and then tell those of us that do play just how lame we are or how easy you think it is.

This is absolutely fantastic! I played drums as a teen and love watching the real thing live. But this is the first time I've had such a wonderful, non-cutaway front row seat to what its like being a concert drummer, even with the isolated raised drum parts and what appear to be the in-ear stems the drummer actually listens to. Elia, is what we hear in these videos what you are actually listening to in your ears? Meaning, main live vocals are almost off (aside from what is picked up by drum mics) and you only hear background guitar and chorus parts? I've watch several of your vids and honestly, this is great. You are a kick-ass top notch drummer!

it is sooooo different in the back row! i played bass in an R & B band with a horn section. It amazed me the first time we played how different the sound was being behind everyone. Just me and the drummer in the back row. It really helped to have a monitor so I could hear the lead vocals a least....Best place I ever played was Boz Scaggs place in San francisco that had a mixing board for just the musicians' monitors...You could have it fine tuned to just what you wanted to hear.

I love the pocket in this drumming. It's a mile wide - the kind of thing that really gets an audience swinging. That plus the sheer joy Elijah shows when playing is so great! Would love to know what snare & mic that is - love the tone!

That snare sound is great. Despite what some may think, this is not triggered, just well tuned and eq'd. I use a similar sound but mine is a 14"x8" shell and this one looks like a 14"x6.5" shell. The top head is a medium to medium/low tuning and the bottom head is tuned about a 3rd pitch higher with the snare wires a little looser to get that fat sound. I like mine super fat sounding that's why I use the 8" deep shell.

Oh My!!! So exciting!!! What a great performance, so stunning 👏👏👏
