He said on his video that he did as a bts of going to drumeo that he has a medical condition that getting sick can mess him up so the crew wore masks when in the same room as him to protect him which is cool and kind of them.
@@tonyjackson4099 That's a common misconception. Masks lessen the amount of pathogens that are aerosolized and they do very little to protect the person wearing it. This has always been the medical consensus and what research shows, it's just *never* communicated properly to the general public. I'm not trying to condescend to anyone either, so cheers everybody
Samus is immunodeficient, so the staff wore masks for him. He talks about it in his VLOG from his Drumeo trip. His take on this song makes me wish Drumeo made the recordings available on music services.
I’m 41 and and up to my 30’s I played in bands, I can’t believe how many people use vocal guides these days. You should learn a song without a voice telling you when the change is coming on a click track
@@FartyMcFartface12💯... You do you Owain, but we're all different bro. Besides (to my perception at least), it's not exactly 'learning', like you're gonna add it to your band's cover repetiore... Samus had never heard it before, then hit us with his 1st take!... of a 10 minute Bonham track!... Nope, not impressive at all. Ok man. Much love, and have a great day to everyone.
I think the genius thing about this is when you’re trying to read off of a sheet and play, you have to use 2 senses, sight and hearing, simultaneously. But with the audio cues it’s all just hearing/listening. Makes more sense than a written sheet if you think about it like that.
I’m late but coming from the church music world, these kinds of vocal cues in our headsets is essential to keeping everyone together without much rehearsal. Between that and constantly rotating musicians, we need the vocal cues like Samus used.
I don't play drums, but I watch that series religiously just because I am a fan of people operating at their peak. I've been watching reactions to that performance because it was absolutely a level beyond. I have no problem saying it is the best performance of that entire series. And I think the drumeo crew agree with me. If you notice, they showed his entire performance without once cutting away to their reactions. I've never seen them do that before, even on performances that were a third as long. They didn't want to interrupt a god-tier performance. And you know they were all in the booth with their jaws on the floor.
As someone who can play drums AND watches this series religiously too, I agree 1000%. This is such a phenomenal performance that I've watched so many other people reacting to it because it's just THAT amazing. I've even listened to it in the gym during a workout a couple of times! I'm glad someone who can't play drums understands how special and amazing this performance was.
Seriously; he almost did to "Achilles' Last Stand" what Mike Portnoy did to "Burn It to the Ground" by Nickelback. Bonham baked the cake and 66Samus put the icing and cherry on top. (Where Portnoy, on the other hand, elevated a cheap commercial rock song to a level that actually made it interesting.)
66Samus take on this song is one of my favorite from this Drumeo series. His learning method was mind blowing, but his playing was absolutely AWESOME! The power, the feeling, the smoothness and all so clean and precise. The man is a badass musician.
I've followed 66Samus for years now andf he is one funny and down to earth dude. 66Samus is much better than he realizes........Exactly like this channel! Great job Teach!
I just love it that 66samus has now discovered my favourite Zeppelin song...I can see him sitting back on his bed later that night replaying Achilles on his headphones, thinking ...might need to listen to more of this Bonham guy !?
31:15 don't forget, by the time samu got back on the kit, he had heard the song several times over, recording his voiceover. So even if it is his first time playing, he had probably memorized it all. Clearly a really smart guy and an expert drummer.
@@timmie2k3 Sorry, but no. If that was as simple, Dirk Verbeuren wouldn't have missed the ending of "Mr Brightside", of all songs. The audio cues are the brilliant part. And they are not as easy. Try having somebody saying something to you in the end of a bar where you need to listen, understand and adapt for the next part without missing a beat from what is happening during that last fill/part. It is not easy. And again, Dirk, Mr. Brightside, ending.
That was immensely impressive by Samus. To pull that off on the first take with no mistakes that could be heard, and great interpretation of an amazing song.
I've watched this at least 30 times ... Samus is fantastic, Each consecutive time I watch this , I see something different that I miissed, it's mind blowing. Samus, I wish youi well you fecking legend, very best wishes, and thanks for being so amazing.
You can't go wrong with JB on the drums but I grew up with both LZ and Pink Floyd. But no one talks about Nick Mason. Would love to see a reaction to Pink Floyd "One of these days" Live at Pompeii 1972
I think people who know..know..its kinda like a Ringo Starr situation..I doubt Roger Waters wrote the drum parts..maybe ..but it was most likely Mason..which ive never thought a note could be changed
A few days ago on stage in Monterey, California, the drummer for Get The Led Out absolutely slayed during his extended Moby Dick solo. He brought the house down. Standing ovation and loudest applause of the night.
Have followed Samus for years. Love his work with Devin Townsend. Knew he was an amazing drummer. Had no idea he could play a marathon of a song that well on the first take. Most of his videos make me want to get in the kit and practice. The drumeo vid had me thinking about setting my kit on fire…
FINALLY!!!! I’ve been waiting for this (: this one has to be the best of this series. Samus did DOZENS of fills and from what I can tell, all of them are different. Vocal cues?? GENIUS!! So inspirational for a fairly new drummer like myself ❤
@@jiboo6850 Yeah, no point in discussing this further then. I´m just amazed because you´re the first person I´ve ever come across who disagrees with that. But who cares really, have a good one.
Fantastic performance, can't believe how well done in one take, with only listening to the song once - that takes talent man! Watching this gave me an appreciation for how complex the song is, all those changes and transitions, many at odd beats, amazing stuff Zeppelin.
My first 66Samus video was his cover of Metallica’s “Blackened” and I’ve been a fan ever since. As far as I’m concerned he absolutely nailed this exercise in every possible metric. As a Bohnam fan since I was about 12 in the mid 80s and holding “Achilles Last Stand” in such high regard I was very happily surprised to see this video pop up from Drumeo. I’ve been following the series for a long while and think the format is brilliant. This video had become “old news” after watching it a few times so to see a reaction to it from Andrew on my feed was another happy surprise. Great reaction. Awesome performance by 66Samus and I’m positive his approach has given a ton of people some new thoughts on how to approach learning or developing a song. And Drumeo keeps bringing fantastic content to support their teaching program. I wish I had access to this kind of thing when I was first becoming interested in playing musical instruments.
Im so glad you got to this one, I was one of the ones who suggested it knowing you'd love it . Blew me away first time I saw it , I've seen his reaction channel but had no idea he was such a well rounded drummer , his approach & ideas on the kit as well as his song learning process left me stunned also. - nice catch on his nod to "Rush" by the way!
As a lifelong diehard metalhead, this is still easily in my top 3 favorite songs ever. Hearing this as a kid all of the time and in the car when being driven around by my parents gives it even more nostalgia. My hands down favorite song by Zep.
Every drummer has its own style - and I'm now convinced that @66Samus has his own style. What an incredible talent - and your words perfectly sums up his talent. Great video as always.
This is one of Zeppelin's sickest tracks. This is about the dopest cover / playthrough of this song out there. Samus is a G. Yoyoka Soma also covered this a couple of years back on her channel. Check that one out too. It's fire.
I saw this already and it was epic The song itself is a deep cut and what Samus does with it is so cool and works just as well as the original version No disrespect to Bonzo of course Can't wait to see this 🤘😎🧐✌️
This vid appeared in my feed and I watched the whole thing, but I don't know Samus or Andrew at all. They are both cool, and I enjoyed it. I have to object though to you calling this song a "deep cut". It's THE cut on the record. A deep cut would be like Tea for One or Hot's on for Nowhere. Like ALL of their albums, it is stellar.the whole way through. The cover depicts an upper-middle class family all looking intently at "The Object". The Object represents that magic of Zeppelin's "presence" and the sum of their parts as a whole, which is greater than the individuals, great as they may be, and the magic that resulted from their collaboration. I do like though that you call John, "Bonzo", it shows some knowledge and respect, which is well deserved. Andrew states at the beginning that you can't know every song, blah blah blah, but I'm sorry, you HAVE to know the masters in their field for any instrument that you are taking seriously. If you are a drummer, you really need to know the catalogue of Led Zeppelin. Bonzo was THE MAN, plain and simple. Imagine that you are the number-one rock band in the world and for many years every album you release is better than the previous one, and your live shows are legendary. That's Zeppelin. Long live Rock 'n Roll, be it dead or alive !
I skipped the original video when it came out. Now I'm witnessing the whole video on your channel. You're right Andrew. Been following Samus' videos for years, now I respect him even more. And that cue approach, I think now it's a good time to takes note of it. What an inspiring technique!
I’m a sound tech for a large church in Aus and we like most worship bands use this mic setup your talking about we call it the MD mic or music director. Usually an experienced musician who is reading the room and the feeling of the music in combination with the congregation. And they will call the direction of the songs. Worship music lends its self to looping chorus/bridges/tags creating building moments as well as slowing/ quieting down. It is incredibly to listen to while they are playing. It’s also super helpful to me as a mix engineer to be able to hear them in my monitors during the service to troubleshoot problems mid performance.
Love it! Play weekly with at least one MD mic in the band. This is a great representation of how it would sound like! Most times its not nessesary, but its nice to have everyone in the band synced on different parts.. then impro stuff aswell. 66Samus is a frikkin legend!
I love the way that 66samus's video came up as a suggestion after I watched on of your Zep videos... so of course I watched it. But then I got the pleasure of watching it again but this time with YOUR reaction which just added to my enjoyment of it.. so thank you... Kepp on Rocking young sir...!
Samus plays live to whatever people request twice a week on Twitch. You can see how great he is at picking things up and anticipating. He can really do this live, to songs he's never heard before, playing along as he's hearing them for the first time
100% agreed! 66Samus did his own things.... I've seen this before (the Drumeo video), and it's still a daym thrill to see it on your reaction channel Andrew! -Tnx alot! -KK (guitarist) from Norway
Been seriously enjoying listening to my all time favorite band through your ears. Really fun to key in on Bonham's incredible musicianship. And 66Samus is A MA ZING!!
Thanks for passing on your experience and insight into the different approaches and mindsets to the challenge. It reminds me of Wotld Rally drivers receiving pace notes from a co-driver. You still have to be a phenom drummer to be epic. 😊
I have been learning to play the drums for one month. Apart from weekly lessons in a college I hire a rehearsal room for four hours a week and batter away. I have glimpsed how it can sound when it works. This video is absolute brain food and one of the best things ever on TH-cam, and I've watched a few of these. Oh and this song has been one of my favourite Zep songs for decades.
@@Signia01 He's definitely got the best electronic kit I've ever heard. Whatever triggers are in those things are amazing, and his choice of samples works really well with them.
@@ThaBeatConductor Yeah, not sure what samples he's using in the PMP but the kit is a drum-tec pro 3. I've been using the snare for 12 months now (love it) and going to be getting the rest of the kit later this year 😄👍
Also, thanks for the Drumeo recommendation on previous video. Samus actually did a 30-day Double Bass course for beginners when he filmed this one and it was amazing! Helped me SO MUCH! ❤
Never ever thought to put audio cues before watching Samus do this on the original vid. The confidence and relaxation that comes with hearing the audio cues vs. straining your neck to see your chicken scratch outline is a game changer. Thanks for reacting to this, Andrew. Keep up the amazing work!
Samus is a real talented guy on the kit, and this video highlights not just his skill, but his ability to fit into a song, with creativity way up the scale. Awesome and tasteful, Bonham would give Samus a high five for this performance.
Random - but one thing I notice is how much you love to mention Red Rocks as your dream venue. I live down the road from Red Rocks and have seen a gazillion shows there (most recently Mastodon with Lamb of God). But, you live in New Zealand which is my bucket list country to live in. Funny how we both revere something about where the other person lives. Drumming bringing people together.
If I may, being a casual first time viewer and all, I would suggest doing one of these on Hiromi's track "Move". Start at 7:15 (of the Universal Music version on TH-cam) if you don't want to watch the whole thing. Pretty darn good.
He got that so c!ose to the feel of the original it was uncanny. If somebody played that version to you blind you'd probably think it was just a different recording of Led Zep. Perhaps the on!y give away that it isn't Bonham is that Samus seems to push the beat a little whereas Bonham dragged slightly in that more bluesy style. Not a criticism btw, because there's nothing here to criticise, just a stylistic variation. Amazing performance and I love his pace notes approach to the arrangement - he's playing by feeling the groove, not aiming to be note perfect. Would be great to hear him taking on jazz and getting a shuffle on.
@@AndrewRooneyDrums you commented on Jimmy sweating on Achilles, they were outside in august at Then , the whole band put so much into their shows , Bonham and Jimmy , Keith Richards said he was the most overworked guitarist in rock , that’s what got to Bonham, there’s more to life . Cheers .

I catch you on Twitch when i can, i love your approach to drumming my dude. Love ya.
You're awesome! That was insane!

You're an absolute savage with a gentle touch! Thanks for sharing your process.
He said on his video that he did as a bts of going to drumeo that he has a medical condition that getting sick can mess him up so the crew wore masks when in the same room as him to protect him which is cool and kind of them.
So he should be wearing a mask if that’s true, not everyone else.
@@tonyjackson4099 yeah but this is a TH-cam video which he is the main focus of, so it's different

@@tonyjackson4099 No they should be wearing a mask in case they're sick, re read the comment.

Makes sense
It's cuz he's a weirdo.has nothing to do with being imunodeficient. He's brainwashed
Wait what.. So his drumming superpower is being stuck in the basement?
@@digimurtal I assume he has a whole house available to him, not just a basement...
@@Kholdaimon Well that's were the drums dwell! I've seen hs "day in a life with .." this dude did albums for Devin.. Say no more
I read a comment in the original video that his vocal guides are like a Rally Car co-pilot navigating a course, which is spot on!
Or if you’re an always sunny fan it’s like Charlie’s recorded cassette gps for franks car lmao
Right on! It worked spectacularly
I’m 41 and and up to my 30’s I played in bands, I can’t believe how many people use vocal guides these days. You should learn a song without a voice telling you when the change is coming on a click track
Why is yours the only way people "should" do things

Much love, and have a great day to everyone.
I think that more than him nailing it, it's how tasty his playing is. What he did here is absolutely unreal.
So so good
I can say with confidence that this series proves that even though we know how the magician does the trick it does not make it any less magical!
Oh it's awesome pulling back the curtain!
I think the genius thing about this is when you’re trying to read off of a sheet and play, you have to use 2 senses, sight and hearing, simultaneously. But with the audio cues it’s all just hearing/listening. Makes more sense than a written sheet if you think about it like that.
100% was thinking the same thing
I’m late but coming from the church music world, these kinds of vocal cues in our headsets is essential to keeping everyone together without much rehearsal. Between that and constantly rotating musicians, we need the vocal cues like Samus used.
Samus was one of three drummers featured on Devin Townsend's album "Empath" from 2019.
Andrew reacted to "Hear Me" prior.
When 66Samus plays, I'm already impressed.
When Andrew is impressed, I'm even more impressed.
Love this channel 😊
Glad you enjoy it!

Hard to imagine it was his first attempt & listening
So good Ryan!
man turned that song into Dream Theater song
Seriously; he almost did to "Achilles' Last Stand" what Mike Portnoy did to "Burn It to the Ground" by Nickelback.
Bonham baked the cake and 66Samus put the icing and cherry on top.
(Where Portnoy, on the other hand, elevated a cheap commercial rock song to a level that actually made it interesting.)
Blown away by the drummer but also by his technique to learn a song.
Me too!
66Samus take on this song is one of my favorite from this Drumeo series. His learning method was mind blowing, but his playing was absolutely AWESOME! The power, the feeling, the smoothness and all so clean and precise. The man is a badass musician.
Another drummer on that series that has an interesting way of learning is Greg Bissonette. And he's hilarious too.

While I get what you are saying, "memorizing it all" is too much to ask IMO. It is a 10 minute song.
@@TenisAmador it's not memorizing 10 minutes of unique playing, though. It's memorizing specific parts and the audio cues tell him which part to play.

Long song too
Seeing a drummer rips a song like this on first take, is slowly becoming my definition of what beauty is.

It’s also super helpful to me as a mix engineer to be able to hear them in my monitors during the service to troubleshoot problems mid performance.
Love it! Play weekly with at least one MD mic in the band. This is a great representation of how it would sound like! Most times its not nessesary, but its nice to have everyone in the band synced on different parts.. then impro stuff aswell. 66Samus is a frikkin legend!
Wow, 18:01 was like a Nick Barker drum fill, that was awesome. I know Nick is one of his inspirations, so that was cool to see.
I love the way that 66samus's video came up as a suggestion after I watched on of your Zep videos... so of course I watched it. But then I got the pleasure of watching it again but this time with YOUR reaction which just added to my enjoyment of it.. so thank you... Kepp on Rocking young sir...!
Glad you enjoyed! 🙏
Samus plays live to whatever people request twice a week on Twitch. You can see how great he is at picking things up and anticipating. He can really do this live, to songs he's never heard before, playing along as he's hearing them for the first time
He's a monster player
100% agreed! 66Samus did his own things.... I've seen this before (the Drumeo video), and it's still a daym thrill to see it on your reaction channel Andrew! -Tnx alot! -KK (guitarist) from Norway
Hey!
Thanks for stopping by!
Still need the interview with you and 66Samus would be drums & humor. This guy.... unbelievable what he does here thats ...no words...
I'm up for it
I saw this a few weeks ago and what a guy to do that without knowing the song and without the drums. Excellent from this Zep/Bonham fan.
Glad you dug it!
This is me reacting to a reaction to a reaction? We’ve reached peak reaction.
Well.
This is me reacting to your reaction.
Of my reaction.
To 66Samus's reaction.
Feel free to react
Not sure how to react to all that. Back to the Rush beat.
So creative, musical, professional!
Insane drumming and one take with cues is mad
Worked incredibly well
I love this man for his immense talent and genuine personality!❤
Been seriously enjoying listening to my all time favorite band through your ears. Really fun to key in on Bonham's incredible musicianship. And 66Samus is A MA ZING!!
So glad to have you along!

I LOVE 66Samus!! Coolest youtube drummer ever!! If you write something on his channel most likely you will hear from him. FUCKING COOL AS HELL!
Love him!
That video was insane. One take putting down his own style and it was amazing. Blown away. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙌
Thanks for passing on your experience and insight into the different approaches and mindsets to the challenge. It reminds me of Wotld Rally drivers receiving pace notes from a co-driver. You still have to be a phenom drummer to be epic. 😊
That was kick ass.
And very entertaining.
Your reaction as well as his!
Great
Thanks for watching!
dude is stout on the drums. his groove is crazy
Awesome reaction, great choice. 66Samus is really amazing!
He sure is
If you've never heard his sessions with Devin Townsend you're missing some badass drumming.
I need to check it out!
I have been learning to play the drums for one month. Apart from weekly lessons in a college I hire a rehearsal room for four hours a week and batter away. I have glimpsed how it can sound when it works. This video is absolute brain food and one of the best things ever on TH-cam, and I've watched a few of these. Oh and this song has been one of my favourite Zep songs for decades.
Thanks dude, already watched his video, but you are totally a pro so...same as I thought!!! Thanks for what you do!!!
I’ve been waiting for you to watch this one for a few weeks. Amazing.
Hope you enjoyed it!
Absolutely blown away! He is in the discussion for the greatest drummers!
Yes I saw this the day it came out. I had the same reaction as you did. He was great and a great guy / drummer.
Mind. Blown.
Gavin Harrison also uses vocal cues during his shows with porcupine tree, mostly because they sync up with video
Oh wow!
Also Drew did you notice his half-acoustic/half-electric kit he was playing? Looks like the cymbals are acoustic but everything else is electronic.
it,s kinda cool that no one noticed he's playing a drum tec/ pearl mimic pro set up. Just goes to show how good they sound ! 😀 👍
@@Signia01 He's definitely got the best electronic kit I've ever heard. Whatever triggers are in those things are amazing, and his choice of samples works really well with them.
Yup I meant to try and analyze the set up but completely forgot.
Quite a few guys doing it here locally. Hybrid setup
@@ThaBeatConductor Yeah, not sure what samples he's using in the PMP but the kit is a drum-tec pro 3. I've been using the snare for 12 months now (love it) and going to be getting the rest of the kit later this year 😄👍
One of led zeppelins best.. fantastic drummer.
Also, thanks for the Drumeo recommendation on previous video. Samus actually did a 30-day Double Bass course for beginners when he filmed this one and it was amazing! Helped me SO MUCH! ❤
Thanks for this video! Always a fun watch 😊
The gallup on the double bass is insane, so good
He is one of the best on scene with people like Siberiano.... He's a beast in drums....
I follow him on Twitch and attend his streams on occasion but never knew how good he is!! Fantastic!! I cried how good it was. 🤘🏻💥🔥🙏🏻💯
Never ever thought to put audio cues before watching Samus do this on the original vid. The confidence and relaxation that comes with hearing the audio cues vs. straining your neck to see your chicken scratch outline is a game changer. Thanks for reacting to this, Andrew. Keep up the amazing work!
I stole that from him for studio session and it is quick!!!
Yup it's super smart
Love how relaxed and confident he is!
This was so fun to watch, I immediately forwarded it to my drum playing son the second I finished watching it. So cool
Loving "the rush beat" and slow down back into verse groove... Mighty.
66Samus is a f******* genius! Nailed it! Great reaction video, Andrew!
First time I watched this, it gave me chills! So good bro...
Watched the original and now watching all the reactions. It keeps getting better. Need a 66Samus version of Achilles Last Stand on spotify.
YES!
12:17 Sammy has an auto immune issue and everyone is very respectful of it and takes care to make sure hes less likely to get sick.
Oh that's so good to hear they took precautions
Samus is a real talented guy on the kit, and this video highlights not just his skill, but his ability to fit into a song, with creativity way up the scale. Awesome and tasteful, Bonham would give Samus a high five for this performance.
Super impressed!
Random - but one thing I notice is how much you love to mention Red Rocks as your dream venue. I live down the road from Red Rocks and have seen a gazillion shows there (most recently Mastodon with Lamb of God). But, you live in New Zealand which is my bucket list country to live in. Funny how we both revere something about where the other person lives. Drumming bringing people together.
Great point Darren! 🙌
If I may, being a casual first time viewer and all, I would suggest doing one of these on Hiromi's track "Move". Start at 7:15 (of the Universal Music version on TH-cam) if you don't want to watch the whole thing. Pretty darn good.
I’ll have to get on it!
He got that so c!ose to the feel of the original it was uncanny. If somebody played that version to you blind you'd probably think it was just a different recording of Led Zep. Perhaps the on!y give away that it isn't Bonham is that Samus seems to push the beat a little whereas Bonham dragged slightly in that more bluesy style. Not a criticism btw, because there's nothing here to criticise, just a stylistic variation. Amazing performance and I love his pace notes approach to the arrangement - he's playing by feeling the groove, not aiming to be note perfect. Would be great to hear him taking on jazz and getting a shuffle on.
I like to know how he could keep up for 2 plus 3 hrs a night for months on tour , that’s a lot of energy, amazing
Yeah touring is a tough gig
@@AndrewRooneyDrums you commented on Jimmy sweating on Achilles, they were outside in august at Then , the whole band put so much into their shows , Bonham and Jimmy , Keith Richards said he was the most overworked guitarist in rock , that’s what got to Bonham, there’s more to life . Cheers .
