This is sooo cool dude. I can only imagine what that must feel like, jamming with your crewmates in a gigantic fucking arena like that. And get paid for it too?? You are quite literally living the dream, my friend. Thank you for sharing a little taste of it with us!
The dream also includes waking up before everyone else, being there as a support the whole time and pack up after the show when the band is already long gone. Not really a dream. Roadies and techs work unhealthy hours. Not really a dream job.
Man you are a legend. As a person who’s currently a backliner and who’s dreaming about being a touring drum tech, i can say that your videos are sooo inspiring and well made! Thank you so much for your service champ🫡
I’m a geez (71 1/2) so until this, I never heard of him or them. But that’s no surprise really. Do enjoy the crap out of this though. Gotta pull em up and give a listen.
As a former drum tech myself, I'm so grateful for this! Thanks Matt, I've learned so much and remembered great gigs doing this stressful, painful, not sleeping, tiring but AWESOME job! You got yourself a new fan down here in Guatemala!
I'm glad you uploaded this! A lot of people when they go to concerts don't really take to account the magicians that set up the show and help make sure everything works out Great video!
People always tell me these are glamorous jobs, I'm glad this video is here so I can show them exactly how amazing it is to be in rock 'n' roll behind the scenes :-) nothing says excitement like drum sound check :-)
Yup...and lots of hard honest work....Good ol fashion hard day of honest work but in the music industry. Much love and mad respect to all involved in this line of work. A+++
@@ChugLifePodcast right my point is that it's a job and it's hard work and you aren't partying with the band enjoying the highlife etc. etc. I was accused of this many times by people who want to hang out with the band, and think as a promoter i just make a call, order up an act and then party. instead of making 90 minute round trips to the professional hairdresser store because somebody's hair dryer is on 220
Loving the videos, It's not easy to catch somebody's attention watching a video of almost an hour and thinking it's been only 10mins. We need more! lol Also It's funny you spend way more work and time on the practice kit than the actual kit. Of course the main one is basically set up but still funny.
I'm a FOH engineer and I Love these clips man. Hopefully I can be working in arenas one day. I also have it on my list to learn how to change drum heads and do maintenance because I deal with backline every so often and my sound company owns 4 drum kits so knowing the ins and outs would be beneficial. I know the setup and tear down but not so much the maintenance end of it. keep it up man, love it!
Bro as a drummer, this is really cool. As soon as I saw the finish on the snare and tom, I thought to myself, "that looks alot like luke hollands drums...and then you pulled out all the cymbals and I was like no fucking way. Luke is one of my fav drummers, this is fucking badass!! He has one of the most beautiful kits I've ever seen
This dude is living the dream, so many kids dream of doing something like this. It reminds me of the TPB when Bubbles gets to be the guitar tech for Rush.
This is my new favorite channel, I’ve always loved watching behind the scenes stuff and the way you film with the chest rig instead of just holding the camera makes it really enjoyable
it's so cool to see a setup at a venue that I've been to a million and a half times. I love this video for just how raww and unedited it is and provides amazing insight to the love care and dedication that goes into making a show happen
Thanks to you guys I tried out the remo p4 clears on top and power control dots on the bottom on my mapex Saturn kit and it’s completely transformed that kits sound. No moon jels or anything and it has a super punchy tone with little to no unwanted resonance. I’ve been on team Evans for years but this remo combination is 🔥🔥
Super neat seeing these drum tech POV videos! Definitely gives some insight in respect to the team involved in making these shows possible. Really cool man!
work as a broadcast engineer, see often Crews setting up in my arena. Love that perspective! Your meticulous work and how you place everything at the right place, make sure everything is tight and secure, that guy knows his job!!
When the lights go out before you perform... and the crowd cheers... I've had that lucky experience when I jammed at the Aztec Theater in San Antonio a few months back... man... it was a rush and very exciting. Awesome content man! LOVE IT!!!
I loved getting this perspective. I’m a stage hand myself, but in Detroit we have truck loaders separate from the actual workers. I just load and unload trucks. I know we technically help put the shows on, but you guys REALLY put the show on. Big respect to you guys! Keep killing it 👏
Going for 6k! Thanks for making this. There's a lot of work in this video and I thank you for this. Also, the band is one of my fav's so these combined is so cool. As a drummer I can only dream of a tech, setting up the kit for me. Again, thank you
I'm a drummer. My full time 40 plus hour a week job is in all facets of commercial / residential construction. I'll trade places with you any day of the week my friend. Pretty damn clean and cushy job if you ask me! That is a great gig as long as you don't mind traveling all the time.
Pretty sure that ‘down tuning’ you mention was him actually tuning the reverb he’s using. When you change the size, and/or the decay length it changes our perception of the pitch of the tail of the reverb. It’s hard to at for sure since it was ambient room noise and not the direct feed from the console. Damn cool video though!!
Another great one! I was wondering if it would be interesting to see some more of the road and maybe what happens after you pack up the last truck, do you guys hang out and grab a meal at all or just straight to where you're staying? This might maybe sound more fun to watch than what it actually is and I get that you might not want to film every single hour of your day. Just a thought! Keep it up!
Thank you to all those people whose names no one knows, who are never seen on stage, being in the crowd of spectators, but who do a great job so that our favorite bands can go on stage and perform a show this evening
Opa Parabéns pelo seu trabalho, eu dou valor a isto. Eu cair aqui em seu vídeos de paraquedas, e estava pensando que você era o baterista, e no inicio do show, e no final do show, vim ler a descrição e traduzir para PT-Brasil. Fiquei de cara, parabéns. Gostei da bateria que estava estudando. Muito linda. É O meu sonho!

When I saw the setlist and realized who you were setting up for....that's badass 33:55 Also the fact that P!ATD is playing in the background makes it even more epic
So being a drummer and an LD, I’ve always wanted to combine doing the two. A few midi triggers might be necessary but still. GOALS! Is your LD running on an MA3 or MA2?
Hi Matt, been watching all of your recent videos, they are absolutely awsome! Just having a quick question for you: is Luke using an upgraded shaft for his double pedal? Seems like it was not the original one from the box. Thank you!!
I took my family to this show at the Tacoma Dome as they love Falling In Reverse and I also follow Tank The Tech so I love this behind the scenes music stuff and this video came on my algorithm and so I checked it out and a few things looked very familiar and to my surprise it was YOU! F.I.R. tech and I was like SCORE!!! This made my day today. I showed my family and your channel is so awesome because not only does my family love the band but to see the behind the scenes stuff...OMG..What I treat not only for them but me as well because I totally geek out on stuff like this. It's like a desert for a good meal. I totally appreciate all the hard hard hard work you and your crew do into putting great entertainment into shows like this. Not many people appreciate what you do or even know about the hard work and effort and sense of urgency you have to endure while setting a great live show for fans. Sure fans just drive to the venue find a parking spot and attend the show buy merch and leave but you guys are up at 7 am first ones in and last ones to leave at 2am or so give or take so get it. I had my time in the music at a smaller club level back in the day but you guys take the cake. It's amazing what goes into a concert and I hope to see more up do date videos and also hope to see your videos on the Disturbed tour coming as I'm assuming you'll be on that tour as well and hope to see day by day or whatever videos you can pop out while working because your videos are great and we love them so Thank You for all your hard work Matt. Much love and respect. Thumbs Up and shared and subbed and hit that bell asap. A++++ : ))) Your channel is in our family of entertainment now. lol 🤩
Was already stoked to watch then saw you're at the Moda! I'm a local and love that place. It was where I saw my first concert at 7 (lol, NSYNC). I dream of being able to play it one day. This was a really cool perspective.

If it is your dream too, work as hard as you can to live it!
Man you are a legend.
As a person who’s currently a backliner and who’s dreaming about being a touring drum tech, i can say that your videos are sooo inspiring and well made!
Thank you so much for your service champ🫡
What's crazy to me is how a non mainstream band at this level can still be bringing in enough money to pay this much crew and gear and etc
I mean they are pretty mainstream though
Also helps the drummer he techs for is youtube famous and prob makes a shit ton of money on his own to afford all the help
I’m a geez (71 1/2) so until this, I never heard of him or them. But that’s no surprise really. Do enjoy the crap out of this though. Gotta pull em up and give a listen.
Falling in Reverse, Luke Holland is currently their drummer.
Non mainstream? You talking about falling in reverse?
If so they are mainstream and one of the most popular bands at the moment.
As a former drum tech myself, I'm so grateful for this! Thanks Matt, I've learned so much and remembered great gigs doing this stressful, painful, not sleeping, tiring but AWESOME job! You got yourself a new fan down here in Guatemala!

You work harder than my bass tech for sure. All love for the techs... You always know where the bathrooms are... don't forget to tip your tech.
This is so weird - everytime im watching you making sure everything is tight i feel nervous like i am going on stage soon :D
That first hit on the drums when the band goes on would be so nerve wracking!
I get that too! I have no idea what its coming from
well he gets to do a run through so that will help. no reason for anything to fall apart after that@@bellum128
