it comes from playing without a band for a longtime while you grow up, you obviously have to play the baseline and it becomes weird to only play mid fill or grace notes
In my church I am the keyboardist my other 2 cousins are the drummer and bassist and we all connect with just our eyes or a shake head by any one of us and we all know what we want to do
Truer words have never been spoken, we have no drummer it is only after recording I realize I was racing to the end of the song when we were just starting
I’ve played with loads of players and once you come up against a Jazz pianist none of this applies. The Jazz pianist will just do their thing, your role is to be quick enough to pick up on it or go home.
“im giving it to you clear as day, but you gotta watch me! I can’t give it any clearer!” By the end of this year I’ll have had 4 high school choral teachers and I promise you they will all have said those words
"The keyboardist who wants all the shine on the slow songs" We were playing a Christmas medley that had "Have yourself a merry little Christmas" The lead sax is playing the melody, and in that little space between the first and second line (between "Merry little Christmas" and "Let your heart be light") I just hear the pianist going ham on the melody. I look over and he has the look, you know the one, the *it's my time to shine!* look. Oh boy, here we go again.
😂 This was so good. One time, I was playing drums for a conference with a totally different band that played old school gospel. The keyboard player was also the lead singer, so I’m over in my drum corner, spiced it up with a few accents and rolls, she gets super close to the mic in the middle of singing the song and tells me “KEEP A STRAIGHT BEAT!” 🤣
@@InceyWincey I tend to agree, but when I'm playing with inexperienced musicians who keep dragging the tempo into the toilet, I find a click track to have some value.
I played with a guitar player who set the tempo for each song in practice and I made sure I wrote them down. Started each song on the practiced tempo, he'd stop playing, come over and change it. Sometimes faster, sometimes slower, several times every time we played together..
😂😂😂....as a former choir director I would like to say how aggravating that is when they do this....that's when I'd always BREAK THE MUSIC!!..in the middle of the song!!...😂😂😂...DOGGONE IT!!
I have a young great drummer I play with and we have been playing together at a Church for 9 years .. I think he was 7 years when we started playing together .. He knows my bird and move and I know his move .. There is big bond between us when we play and when he is not there , you can feel the difference ..
Pamshairexpo if u know music u can jus hear it and wen u open ur eyes u will see people who know music looking at the choir director, singers, drummer, keyboardist etc..
As a former choir director I’ve witness every one of these & the accuracy is SPOT ON... now add a CD to these same scenarios & my gawd a mess will be made
Only real musicians and ministers of music will fully understand this 🤣🤣🤣 many years and many churches we see plenty of these at one place at multiple events 🤣🤣🤣. This was too funny
Sonner Solano lol me too🤣🤣 I’ve been in it since a kids i started being a musician for churches over 10 years ago lol and I’ve seen so much 🤣🤣🤣 nothing like holy laughter 💯🤣🤣
Here's proof that when the keyboardist and drummer can't get it together, it throws off the entire praise and worship! Good thing I have joy bells ringing in my soul! #KeepMyOwnRhythm
It’s crazy cause I’ve played with almost every type you mentioned considering I play both drums and piano. So it’s very relatable on both ends 😂‼️ but my biggest pet peeves are the ones who are behind and slow the music down🤦🏾♂️
I don't miss church but I miss playing with my bro 3 times a week (me on drums and him on keys) I'm proud to say we were not once trying to out shine the other, it was just fun playing together and making the songs sound pleasant to the surprisingly demanding audience 😅😅 and ourselves ofc! English is not my native language so yeah
Boy I swear you're a musical genius.... you gotta be genius just to relate all of this.... and I'm mad that I've been in (and fit) every situation 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Meanwhile the bassist is depressed because the keyboardist won't stop playing the low notes.
YES.... THIS... THIS....THIIISS
This one really hit home 😔
Amen to that
That's when you go up the neck and slap and pop the funk ..... Either they "get it" and give you space or you keep overplaying lol
it comes from playing without a band for a longtime while you grow up, you obviously have to play the baseline and it becomes weird to only play mid fill or grace notes
There’s no better sound then when a drummer and keyboard/organ player are completely locked in
You can't forget about the Bass...LOL... Coming from a Bass Player...Hahahahaha
Wavy DC *Rest Easy Kobe 🐍 and Princess GiGi* 💯
BOSS lol bass players always wanna he included in things 😂😂
Man and throw the bass in there my God
Was wondering which God he's serving not mentioning that bass and I play keys 😆
As a Drummer “The Keyboardist that’s Impossible to Follow but blames everyone else” is Triggering and Giving Me Flashbacks 😂😂😂😂😂
That SENT me 😂😂😂💀💀💀

Hope you're in therapy. As a vocalist, I've witnessed enough of those moments to know that you may need it! 😅
Dude…. 🙌🏼👊🏼🙏🏼

You forgot the drummer that ends every song with a solo 😂😂
And there is me the guitarist.. Tuning my guitar in the middle of them arguing.
Real 😂😂🤧
I’m in the same boat
Hahahahahahahaha preach
Right.... I believe all Bassist do that.... I know I do!!! Lol
@wind oooh my before event or half time
Me and my drummer been playing together so long all we gotta do is look at each other and we know what it is

I dont find the comment is funny. It’s a funny video bruh
Keyboarder to drummer: "You gotta watch me!" lmao
Those are the one that will make me tell them how wack they are...
2:40 that’s fire 🔥
That song is "Everybody Clap Your Hands" by Joshua's Troop. It's a fun song.
The one part when the keyboardists speeds up a song but blames the drummer sheeesssshhh where’s the lie?!?!?😂😂😂
Omg

Facts!!! 💯
Rory Gayle bra that’s a whole book to write! Real talk!

Like the piano felt like a jazzy lofi type beat, it was soooo nice.
Sees "drummer that likes trap music"

where are my djent bois at
As an experienced amateur drummer, I always stare at the pianist to keep the flavor.
That's right!!!!! U need to move to New Orleans and be my drummer lol
williejames huff means he has a lot of experience playing but doesn’t do it professionally you cretin, no contradiction there.
I’ve played with loads of players and once you come up against a Jazz pianist none of this applies. The Jazz pianist will just do their thing, your role is to be quick enough to pick up on it or go home.
@williejames huff Him saying that he's experienced means he has a lot of experience. Holy shit you're stupid.
williejames huff holy shit u ok?
As a drummer of a previous band i must say that the best feeling is the moment when you realise how well everyone is locked in.
“im giving it to you clear as day, but you gotta watch me! I can’t give it any clearer!” By the end of this year I’ll have had 4 high school choral teachers and I promise you they will all have said those words

What song is that
IKR
Smith Joseph this is the way we praise him
@@smithjoseph5556 Everybody Clap Your Hands by Joshua's Troop
@@ajbobb24 yes sur!!!🖤
The 'the drummer that never does the accents' part is super beautiful. Make a full song/tune of it.
Indeed it sounds so soothing
Yes plz
Sounded like something Dave grusin would do
Check out the live version of “Mercy” by Dave Matthews band. The jam at the end has the same sort of feel.
Very accurate! 😂 Shout out to all of the church musicians out there. Keep the faith.
As a drummer and pianist, this is DEFINITELY true on both sides Haha!!! Hilarious
Exactly:Dd
A good drummer knows when to be loud, and when to be soft
Drives me nuts when drummers only know to play fff
Every type of musician should know that.
I agree
Seeing a drummer have absolute finesse over the dynamics of his instrument is way more enjoyable anyway. Dynamics tell a story sort of
ffs yeah

The keyboard player was also the lead singer, so I’m over in my drum corner, spiced it up with a few accents and rolls, she gets super close to the mic in the middle of singing the song and tells me “KEEP A STRAIGHT BEAT!” 🤣
She was doing too much. God bless you.
Personally, I wouldn't take that. Immediate chops.
WL:
“We’re playing too slow.”
Me:
“We’re playing with a click...it’s the original tempo...😒”
That's why I always try to say, "That's the original tempo. Would you like to take it faster?"
And then they can get yelled at when it's unsingable.
Never play with a click. Music played to a click track is soulless.

As a Pianist of over 40 years I can honestly say that a drummer who sounds like a track is the most Dreadful thing ever
Jaques Teddy Ruxpin what do you mean by track? Too robotic?
@@isaacheng1046 no cymbals, no toms no double bass Beats, no substance in their playing, just like a click track
Jaques Teddy Ruxpin ah ok gotchu
@@isaacheng1046 I expect that out of drummers who are just beginning, but it annoys the hell out of me when veteran drummers do it
As a seasoned drummer I agree, but also agree that some drummers these days be doing too much shedding (overplay) during the song.
3:00 I burst out laughing when he sped up and said "Slow it down, slow it down" LOL
The "Center of Attention"
😂😂😂
I'm GUILTY, that's me right there
1:20 "The dreaded eyes 👀!" That almost killed me!!! 😂😂😂😂
And all the drummers cried out, simultaneously, "JUST PLAY!"
😂😂😂😂😂
I swear when I was a drummer I stayed getting blamed for being too fast even though it was their fault I SWEAR 🤣🤣🤣
2:38 i cant stop listening please do the Full One!!!!!
This was TOO accurate on so many levels.
It's so crazy how you so accurate🤣
I have a young great drummer I play with and we have been playing together at a Church for 9 years .. I think he was 7 years when we started playing together .. He knows my bird and move and I know his move .. There is big bond between us when we play and when he is not there , you can feel the difference ..
And there's me, a guitarist who just want to tune my instrument peacefully.
So Is that what all the hand🖐🏽 waving and pointing👈🏽 be about? Lol😂🤣😂
Pamshairexpo i wondered the same, but at the same time I would be paying attention, low key.😂✨💚
@@DMKC i be paying attention but I'm REALLY gonna be paying attention now! Well, that's when they let us go back to church⛪lol 😂
Exactly thats what the hand movements are about and it irritates me to death when the other musicians don't be paying attention

I'd love a to hear a whole song of this one
Like you man lol.. you too good🤣
The drummer delays too much🤣
Exactly I hate when keyboardist start a song. And the 20 sec later look at me as if I started the tempo😂😂
As of fellow musician(drum and keyboard) I can relate. But when that two piece flowing and the spirit movin 🙌🔥💯
