They use to suck at live.. back in early 2000's, and then i got the chance to see them in Lausanne in 2016. I can assure you it was trully different from their old perf'. i've never been so amazed by the sound of any other band in live ever since. They sound fantastic. Once you get the chance to see 'em, seize it !
Together they're the rhythm section of "the band" (I know Chris isn't in Billy Talent, just speaking in general). When they're in the pocket together it's downright magical. =D
Chris, I don't think this was a dream come true. You earned that! Hard work is what got you there with those guys. You are an amazing young drummer who will be on stage playing a band in your future! I had chills watching you do the sound check! I know you lived a dream.....but you earned it Chris. Keep it up!
The guys that disliked this are just jealous... Wicked drumming dude! Wish I could do that... I play guitar though, but I did see some other guys that won a competition and got to do sound check and play guitar. Hmmm
All i know is that if you work hard enough dreams do come true, any type of musical instrument is not stupid or a waste of time to me, as long as you love it and have fun with what you do, whats stupid about it? Music is the best thing in the world. Just do what makes you happy! Thanks for your support :)
I am American and I love Billy Talent, I listen to them all the time. I felt like for the longest time that there were not many people in America who like Billy Talent, but I think you just proved me wrong.
I now have this cheeky grin on my face, I can't believe it man. I've seen Billy Talent live twice (I was going to a third time but I wanted to rock with a friend). I'm also a drummer (17yrs old and not nearly as good), and I'm glad that you got to play with them.
Well I play the piano and not many rock bands like having that in their music. Well at least the ones I listen to. I agree with you that music is the best thing in the world. Music has helped me get through hard times in my life and I am grateful for it. What I find stupid about me playing piano is that for most of my life I have been looked down upon because I play it. It sucks that I feel this way about something that I love to do but I will keep trying every day to make my dreams a reality.
There's always that one idiot who comments "better than the original" in every (cover) video and I am going to be that idiot in this video. Way to go, man.
WOW, it's the very first time I find this video and my hands were sweating all the time because of the excitement and I'm not even you lol WHAT AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 And you are fucking amazing!!
Maaaaaaaaaaaaaan I would give anything (respectively not a life such as my own or any other living entity, or an outrageous amount of money...) to just meet them!!!! you got to jam with them!!!!!
Wow Chris!!! You are a wonderful drummer. I am so very happy for you that your dream came true. Billy Talent is also one of my favorite bands. You are so very lucky to have been given an opportunity like that. I know I will never have any opportunity like that arise for me. Yes I do play an instrument, but I think it is too stupid. If you knew what I played I think you would think the same thing. Keep fallowing your dreams and share your gifts with others.
Congratulations, Chris! I'm so glad you got to play with them and fulfill your dream. You're incredibly talented, and you completely deserve the opportunity you were given! A proud Canadian brother right here!
dude...i'm speechless...that was just WOW. You gave me chills. Lived my dream right there man. Keep up the great work AND NEVER forget this moment. You'll tell your kids this story one day haha. Great job man
Holy smokes man, I've watched this quite a few times and you're great! Why must you live in a different province. We could be in a killer band and open for Billy Talent, who really are the greatest band in the world!
BUM BUM BUM BUM BUM BUM BUM BUM BUM....
1:52 That was sick! Nailed it
This guy knows his shit. Accurate drumming my man, i discover this 4 years late but hey, talent never dies am i right ? Keep rocking \,,/

I cannot thank you enough for your amazing words and support! Thank you my Canadian brother!
Cool as fuck bro, nice!!!!
This left me speechless. I've watched this about 4 times before commenting. You're an awesome drummer!
man that bass player loves you lol. epic
Together they're the rhythm section of "the band" (I know Chris isn't in Billy Talent, just speaking in general). When they're in the pocket together it's downright magical. =D
The bass player needs to pay close attention to the drums in every band regardless
Bass player always takes queues from the percussion.
Chris, I don't think this was a dream come true. You earned that! Hard work is what got you there with those guys. You are an amazing young drummer who will be on stage playing a band in your future!

He should replace Aaron for the time he can't play

Oh my god your solo
I am American and I love Billy Talent, I listen to them all the time. I felt like for the longest time that there were not many people in America who like Billy Talent, but I think you just proved me wrong.

I now have this cheeky grin on my face, I can't believe it man. I've seen Billy Talent live twice (I was going to a third time but I wanted to rock with a friend).
I'm also a drummer (17yrs old and not nearly as good), and I'm glad that you got to play with them.
