[@OTOSoundsandVisuals]

Thanks for covering the guitar tech part. I'm a full time drummer, but I'm also seasoned guitarist as well, and cool to see homies little tricks and process. much love Matt

[@taurus4205]

I’d love to see more regular appearances of the supporting cast….

[@paulsawake3369]

Lol. I find it funny about the "hands" stealing stuff then ya go and steal food.
I'm liking your videos. Thx 4 the behind the scenes look.

[@matthorndrums]

Hahaha! I just outed myself to the entire internet and did't even realize it

[@paulsawake3369]

@@matthorndrums honestly that's why I found it so funny. Then that hand guy asking all kinds of questions. He wanted a drum head or sticks so bad but couldn't ask. Lol. Good stuff.

[@yanmetal2111]

@@paulsawake3369 I think it's basically okay to ask the techs if you're interested in such things, as long as you don't disturb their work all the time. Maybe he's an up-coming musician himself and is looking for a way to get started or is just interestet in such things. But against the background of simply taking things that don't belong to you, these questions were very much about him wanting something of value. Maybe to sell or for his buddies, who knows. But that's really not right. Yes, guitarists sometimes throw their used picks into the crowd or drummers throw drumsticks after last songs. But simply helping yourself to take from the stock... that's really not okay.

it was kind of cool seeing Matt the other front of house guys on Nick Delacruz channel. Finally got to see who Matt talks to during soundtrack.

[@mrr8682]

That’s some good chicken when the bone just falls out of it!!! You know how long I’ve been trying to get my chicken to that point!!!
Also, until your channel I never knew anything about Luke Holland…. Your boss is bad ass!!!! drumming since 11, this kid is in line with my other favorites Gavin Harrison who’s won many modern drummer awards and Morgan Rose….. your lucky to work for this kid, the future is his for the taking!!!!! Rock on!!!

[@marita2g]

You should check out Kai Hahto too! :D He is the drummer for Nightwish and wintersun. He is just amazing. :D

[@Pilot_the_Dune]

Drummer and audio engineer here. Made it to the end crew. Holla!!! This is the best of both my worlds.

[@balakehb]

tbh I think you've created a new behind the scenes style that no-one else is really doing that's just extremely relaxing but also and awesome look behind the scenes that isn't a scripted rig rundown or something like that. I now genuinely look forward to these videos coming out

Made it all the way. Your videos are so cool. I usually watch them two or three times as, there is always something new that I miss.

[@MrWerebear]

Matt, you're an absolute legend. Loving these vids!!!!

[@holywater44]

Awesome job Matt,
Loved it!!!
I played my entire life several bands, and was a drum tech at a Music outlet for 8 years, NAMM every year in Nashville Tn. AND Anaheim.
When I watched you change the heads I'm like MAN!! I do it the EXACT same way to the T.....
Very Glad I found your channel, you make me want to go and take down my DW Custom and clean and polish
even though it is almost brand new lol ...Music was my life since I was a kid.
Thanks for taking me back in time a bit.
Peace brother, I'll be watching!

Hope another soon , it’s addictive and very fun!And you are so respectful and pro , good to see that in this strange world .
Cheers from Belgium ! #STF !

[@marita2g]

Since I haven't commented much I think before today. Just have to say, I found you through Tank´s electric callboy vlogs, someone mentioned you there. Have watched all the videos from start to finish since. And when I found out you drum tech for Luke, loved it even more. Since I Love FIR also.
And after these vlogs I actually listen more to the drums, more in dept then I used too. And I forgot the drum techs name for Electric callboy, but I now follow him too. Such a cool guy, and I see what he does in Tank´s videos too when he is future there. And I notice details that I didnt before, even with EC drummer David. So I have learned so much from your videos, love that. Things I didnt think about that a drum tech does, you show. It's so interesting! Hope you guys come and do a show in Norway some day, I'll keep an eye out if I see you. Hehe. :D You rock! I love your humor too.
Hope you keep doing these, it's amazing. And makes the day better. :D

[@hairyd61]

Even though I feel like I know the drill as well as you, I still enjoy watching these. So thank you for doing them.

[@matthorndrums]

Thanks man, I always worry that it's going to start getting repetitive, so I appreciate the positive feedback!

[@hairyd61]

@@matthorndrums A couple of questions man, is there a specific reason why you don't use separators in the cymbal case? Also, sorry if this has been covered, but are the playback laptops linked so that if you start one, the other starts as well? Apologies if it's a dumb question.

[@ethanaubrey858]

As an aspiring guitar tech I can’t tell you how much the guitar tech segment meant to me🤘

[@elkcloner]

Awesome to see what the other guys in the crew are up to too!

[@rinehardt6837]

Love your videos Matt. I wish I got to see you guys when you were in Myrtle Beach not that long ago big Falling In Reverse fan.

Would love POVs from Chris as well, can't get enough of this type of content! Helps that you are both interesting humans in general.
