JOHNNY VIDACOVICH 

I am lucky enough to have seen Johnny play probably at least 100 times. And he still amazes me every single time.

I just can't keep still watching this. Johnny is one of those guys whose groove is so deep you fel kinda glad there are no other musicians with him here.

FANTASTIC! What a musician - touches my soul!!!! And I'm a guitarist, so I don't really have a soul :-) Great stuff, keep it coming John! Thanks.

He is the legend and I'm so glad I had a piece of him in person back in N.O.

I love the way he counts it off at 4:09: "Chop, chop, a dak-dak-dak..." We lived in New Orleans when I was a kid and I heard the street beats during Carnival season. Johnny's got the feel and it's great to hear him play this stuff.

I don't play drums, and I have no clue how anybody could even keep all that stuff going on. But I so glad somebody got this all on video, because it is epic, religion. John V. is the bomb, and I learn so much and have so much fun listening to him play!

This is the real Bomb. He is king. Love this. Great video. Everyone should see this guy play.

What a treasure!

I has the good fortune to watch a clinic at the Chicago Jazz Festival. That was the day I truly understood what drumming is all about.

Most under rated drummer ever! Johnny's a Nawlin's Original.

Amazing that this video has over 65K views and only 554 likes. People are missing a lot from this man and what he has to offer in this clip and everything he's done. The flashy guys and videos are what most people flock to.

Just saw him play last night in SF.. What a master !!!

dude is an absolute master ... a fucking jedi

I am in awe, absolutely brilliant drumming. Real interesting, thanks for uploading

his left foot technique is amazing!

what a great teacher - he infects you with his enthusiasm

Love the passion!! Going to practice right now!!!

One of the master of second line drummer!

It is because he is out of his head, he can play from his heart

Some of the baddest playing

Thanks so much johnny! look forward to seeing you in april!.

pretty awesome set.

yesyesyesyes great jv!

Looks like he's on something... damn right! On the BEAT.

This man literally is a walking, talking beat. He breathes rhythm.

Ooh it's fun To play the drum!

I must have the full masterclass!!! Anyone have any leads???

"Its fun to play the drum!" Amen to that!:D

Love that groove around 8:00. It's all slamming grooves though!

great drumming. John feels New Orleans and southern drummers are funkier, but some pretty funky cats came out of Philadelphia and New York.

Fascinating

fucking amazing drumming!

un monstruooooo

Where is he playing over next 10 days

it evolved, evolved, evolved, evolved.....lol i love johnny v

cool as fuck

fucking masterful

AWSOME

Must be something in the water. I understand he is talented but totally out there.

junco ppppppartner

Johnny V is da shit!

@29dave totally!

Thanks for the video....whe should stop thinking about syncopation as if it were some kind of weird exception....is just using all the time notes. What is not natural is to stick to 2 and 4...boring! SYNCOPATION don't exist really, we should call rock beats...LIMITATION.

4.30"- 5.05"... Very epic and religion,,,

He's nutty but awesome
