Thanks everyone! I know I goofed on it about half way through. It was literally my second time ever playing that song on a kit. It was good enough that Matt asked me to do it for the rest of the tour ( which was only a week ). Either way, it was fun and it was something I've always wanted to do. I should have some more footage up soon!
How the hell is he only a drum tech. This is so good, honestly. If he likes being a drum tech, then I guess that's fine. I wonder if OM&M even gave him a chance to do this...he deserves it.
I've known about this guy since he was the drum tech for of mice & men such a humble guy and incredible drummer. He has a beautiful family and my wife is obsessed with his wife's tattoo work he did a phenomenal job on this set. No matter the mistakes he made he got right back on tempo and absolutely killed it what an honor to get Matt's approval.
Friggin' Rad, honestly how many drummers will stand aside and let a homie play a signature song for them during a show. Matt is da man. and the dude pretty much nailed it, all the key parts and rolls were spiffy.
Dude you've gained a lot more of my respect! For me, you're not just my favorite band's drum tech. You've now become one of my heroes. Thank you & I hope to meet you soon! :) *cheers from the Philippines!*
mad props to lionel who stepped up and looked like he was having a good time. and props to abr and matt for displaying exactly what playing music is all about, having a good time.
Wow, Lionel, all I can say is, that was phenomenal! :) You kept time and played the part very well, especially for your second time! Impressive my man! So much fun to watch you, I couldn't stop smiling, thinking, "Yea man! Go!" All the best! :)
he also at 1:40, after smiling to Matt, missed the 2nd cymbal crash. BOOM. eyes of a God. Still amazing though that he pulled this off on only the second time playing the song.
Just because August Burns Red screams in all of their songs doesn't mean they're evil, and doesn't encourage any violence towards anybody. Take the time to actually read their lyrics before you start criticizing these awesome musicians. They're actually really good people.
i cant help but laugh in amazment when i great shit like this, i know this guy from letlive i got to meet him at namn show n got a master class with him a bit later hes an awesome dude and helped with a big rugh spot in my playing. :3
He played when setting up for OM&M and he was the best drummer at the venue. He was just the tech but I had to track him down and figure out who he was. That was 10 years ago and I got to watch him succeed.
The aux kit is at the side of the stage because it's been taken away for their "encore" once the drum solo is finished. Matt is just playing at the end of the video on the snare at some parts, like when he drops his stick, Matt fills it in on the snare.
This guy did amazing. Somebody was clearly playing with him though at the end. The random cymbal hit at 2:45 was funny. This guys for real though, fantastic job.
I heard he was supposed to be doing a side project with some of the guys from DGD when there were rumors of them breaking up . . . but who knows! He plays for Savior Custom Drums and has a sick ass kit!
Yeah I know! Now he's just touring with Of Mice & Men and teching for them. The dude is a monster. I believe he was also starting a band with the guys from Lower Definition (since they are all in the same area) and starting a little thing up. If you haven't heard of that band, check them out for sure
Earlier I said that Lionel Robinson is a better drummer than the guy he techs for, and just to confirm what I already know.. Adam Gray himself said that Lionel Robinson is quote "Literally probably the best drummer I've ever toured with."
Whoa! Guy killed it!! That's actually so sick that he got to get Matt Greiner to see him play! And he nailed all the parts! 1:19 was hilarious tho :P His reaction
Actually, The "drum tracks" is actually matt playing along with me on the aux kit set up in front of the stage that is always there at the end of the set for the drum solo. Sorry buddy ;)
There were Zero tracks. If you've seen any of the drum solo's Matt does, he has an aux kit that sits on the side. At the last part of the song Mason ( drum tech ) pulls it back out and Matt jams along with me.

Loniel Robinson on a scale of 1-10 how tired were you at the end of the song.....
This is amazing
@@H2MOVIEMAKERS 8!
@Faisal Lee Thank you!
Dude, you crushed it!!! Killer skills from the throne, and wow, what a cool opportunity
Anyone who can play that track with 98 percent accuracy deserves to be in their own band.
thanks bro
WOW, I CONCUR!!! MOST DEFINATELY!
He's the drum tech and he has enough skill to be the main drummer of any of those bands
Now he is! (He's the drummer for letlive. now) :)
SamJC Drums
no shit?!? saw them on audiotree. this dude has some SERIOUS gospel chops. it's awesome.
1:20 disagrees lmfaoooo great recovery though
@@iHomelessMonkey ooooh let's ignore the whole drumming just because of that part...geez
@@nicholasnunes hey man sorry for noticing, drums are hard and he does a great job
For only his second time to play that song.. Wow thats impressive
Me and my friends drove from Atlanta to Tennessee to see this show when it came thru. Soooo worth it.
This dude now plays drums in letlive
+Duncan Crichton Drums Thought he looked familiar! I saw the Wednesday. They put on a good show.
*played , rip boys
Love ABR. All good, positive dudes. Anyone else catch Jake come up to encourage the drummer at 1:44?
MehsterChief abr is the best hands down
hes saying if you fail once more you go out actually lol
@@LukaS-yn4ir Hahaha. Sadly, no.
Loniel Robinson what actually happened there? I’m dying for some clarification
@@MatDeCesare He was basically saying "you got this". Same as he did every night for the rest of the tour.
1:20 His face and him saying "Oh, fuck." Priceless. Hella good though.
amazing
How the hell is he only a drum tech. This is so good, honestly. If he likes being a drum tech, then I guess that's fine. I wonder if OM&M even gave him a chance to do this...he deserves it.
Sometimes people prefer to be a tech. Getting drums to sound perfect and have everything working properly is satisfying in and of itself
Yeah that’s insane
When I saw of mice and men in October this year, he looked at me and threw me Tino's drum stick, what a top guy!
Dude deserves to with the alternative press award.
That was so much fun watching! I don't care if he messed up and dropped sticks, I love that he was having a blast
I've known about this guy since he was the drum tech for of mice & men such a humble guy and incredible drummer.

this was legit awesome
Couldn’t imagine playing with my favorite band like this my adrenaline would be through the roof. Great job man
People who don’t play drums don’t realize how impressive it is to see anyone cover ABR on drums
Dude you've gained a lot more of my respect! For me, you're not just my favorite band's drum tech. You've now become one of my heroes. Thank you & I hope to meet you soon! :) *cheers from the Philippines!*
I played ps3 with Loniel :D
Must have been awesome to watch someone playing your drum part. He did a great job!
mad props to lionel who stepped up and looked like he was having a good time. and props to abr and matt for displaying exactly what playing music is all about, having a good time.
2:58 Invisible Snare Sound
Absolutely crushed it and then some!!!! Awesome job!!!!
Wow, Lionel, all I can say is, that was phenomenal! :) You kept time and played the part very well, especially for your second time! Impressive my man! So much fun to watch you, I couldn't stop smiling, thinking, "Yea man! Go!" All the best! :)
I like how encouraging jake and matt are! Haha super clean tom work too!!
he also at 1:40, after smiling to Matt, missed the 2nd cymbal crash. BOOM. eyes of a God. Still amazing though that he pulled this off on only the second time playing the song.
What ever man.. this guy played it awesome!!
This is why i love this band Matt is seriously the coolest fucking man to let someone guest drum
Regardless of the parts where he "improvised" or didn't really know where the song was, I think he did a fantastic job! Get set Loniel Robinson!
Just because August Burns Red screams in all of their songs doesn't mean they're evil, and doesn't encourage any violence towards anybody. Take the time to actually read their lyrics before you start criticizing these awesome musicians. They're actually really good people.
Holy crap, nice work Lionel. Hard work payed off.

I've watched this so many times , he's a mean drummer , I like matts reaction to it

Dude I was there and honestly as a drummer you couldn't even tell. It was so minor.

Double bass mania 0:21!!! LOL GOOD JOB LONIEL!!! I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO SEE HIM PLAY ONE OF ABR SONGS!!!! A DREAM COME TRUE!!!!

Solid and great playing
good shit dude! that was bad ass!
Wow...incredible job!
Amazing!!!
That awkward time change right before the first breakdown gets me every time 😂😂
The aux kit is at the side of the stage because it's been taken away for their "encore" once the drum solo is finished. Matt is just playing at the end of the video on the snare at some parts, like when he drops his stick, Matt fills it in on the snare.
Matt rocks ! He played near the camera , that was amazing !
so sick dude
he tore that shit up!!!
Great drummer
This guy did amazing. Somebody was clearly playing with him though at the end. The random cymbal hit at 2:45 was funny. This guys for real though, fantastic job.

I was here for this. Fun fact: this show was actually in Illinois, and my nose got broken during this song.
Damn that was badass!

I heard he was supposed to be doing a side project with some of the guys from DGD when there were rumors of them breaking up . . . but who knows! He plays for Savior Custom Drums and has a sick ass kit!

Yeah I know! Now he's just touring with Of Mice & Men and teching for them. The dude is a monster.
