Meinl Drum Festival - Chris Coleman “GAIA“ 

One of those drummers that just makes you instantly want to go practice when you see him play. Such an inspiration. 🙌

Those drums never had a chance. They were pummeled into submission. Incredible...

A lot of people don't think fast and energized drumming has pocket, but this is proof that it totally does. Impeccable time. Impeccable consistency. Impeccable dynamics and note placement. If that doesn't count as pocket then I don't know what does.

Can someone give this man immortality because I don’t wanna stop watching him😩😩

Chris Coleman always speaks my language. He understands groove more than "beats", and he always has that one hilarious moment where he makes a face at a camera. Hahaha. It shows how much he just loves drumming.

At 1:52 Chris looks at me and his eyes are saying: ‘hi Bob are you with me?’ Me: ‘hum I m trying CHris, I m trying....’

Such a legend! 🥁

Always pure, passionate and positive on and off the drums. I love Chris' energy! Truly and inspiration as a drummer and a human being!

Chris Coleman = inspiration 👊

I can't stop watching the snare/kick roll 1:58!!! It's so perfectly executed

Unbelievable!! The power, the precision, speed, creative ideas, groove - what a flawless performance! What control and command over his instrument and rhythm in general! Plus he has this energy and charisma, and makes it look like it's the easiest thing to do!

what an epic event. The drumfestval was definetly the best day of my life. Thanks a lot Meinl❤❤

Coleman is so damn good, I cannot keep up with him but still enjoy the hell out of him. Incredible

The speed and accuracy is insane

Smashed it. 💣

My favorite drummer right now. Chris is the man! Technically effortless.

Dammmyummmmmm, that was insane. I had to watch that twice and may go for a third. Those and fill and the timing were just executed soo flawless.

J'ai dû regarder cette vidéo plus de 500 fois. C'est simplement surréaliste.

Timing crazy, chops crazy, energy crazy just God level drumming

Those who dislike this, actually don't like drums.

The kind of video I want to share with all my friends, before I remember that not everyone cares about drums. Well they should!

El Estepario Siberiano said this was the hardest song he has learned to date and thats saying something. I can see why. Holy sh*t. This man is an absolute legend. What IMPECCABLE timing. Even when full blown drumming you can see the rhythm of the beat moving through his entire body quite vividly. Especially around the 3 minute mark.

GUM CHEWING MAESTRO!😅 THE WHOLE EARTH SHAKES WHEN THIS GUY PLAYS DRUMS, LITERALLY! ABSOLUTE INSPIRATION!😍👌

I've seen so many renditions of this and not even Kaz does this like Coleman does. Dude is in another stratosphere.

Chris has such an energy when he plays. You can tell how passionate he is when ever he sits down at the kit!

God damnnnnnnnnnnnnnn. Chris's energy and power along with his precision and accuracy behind the kit is something else. Easily one of if not the best drummer in the world. Matt Garstka and Chris Coleman my two favorite drummers forreallll

Absoluter Wahnsinn! Dieses Lineup! Danke Meinl, dass ihr so viel mehr für uns Fans und Kunden seit als nur ein Beckenhersteller! Den ersten Juli 2017 werde ich niemals vergessen denn es war mit Abstand der beste Tag meines Lebens! #meinlfamily

I love this video. Just makes me wanna play drums all day. Thank you MEINL for sharing this. I can't stop watching it.

From outer space! Just breathtaking!

not only does chris have denser chops than anybody else but he also plays so precisely that even tho I don't know wtf is going on I can tell that is in perfect time

Pure genius!!!! Such an inspiration! Thank you Meinl for sharing this awesome videos! :D

What a physical solo this is, powerhouse. Showmanship solo. No question, everyone in the audience literally felt the air move with this performance.

2:40 to 2:54 the definition of "killing it"

Thanks Meinl for not only showcasing his cymbals but that sonor kit as well. Sounds awesome and props to mix engineer.

Such an unbelievably great drummer. Timing, energy, chops, and unreal sense of rhythm. Always inspiring to watch!

That snare!!! Gold performance

Sophisticated and amazing display of speed, synchronism and style.

Insane speed across the toms , dude is phenomenal

Always impressive! Always delivers! Always a good time. You the man Chris!

Holy Mother of God! I was already an instant fan after watching his Drumeo 2020 video playing the seafoam green Sonors. But this video takes it up another notch. This guy is now one of my favorite drummers. I can't get enough.

Love it! Please let us see more of his show from the meinl drumfestival 2017!! These events are everytime amazing!

Love this guy! No show-off, just right to the point.

Damn. He can freak the hell out but also can play so crisp, and with lots of subtleties, off tempo, creative. This dude is a beast

This guy is amazing! Chris you take drumming to. Whole new dimension

I was sittin in the first row, and i can say you: This is not even close to seing him live, because a video can not do justice to this guy. Maybe this have been the most inspiring minutes i´ve ever experienced. Chris is not only a incredibly awesome drummer but also a great human being. If you ever have the chance to see this guy. Take the chance and watch him you can learn so much from him.

Chris plays in his own league! 🔥

God that roll on the toms how it was perfectly timed with the music wtf. God mode

Wow - I admire a lot of drummers but I've never ever seen anything like this. Next level

Chris is just flat out next level. No other way to describe how this man plays. Powerful.

Hell yeeeeeeeeeasssss!!!!! Chris is THE BEST!!! ❤❤💙💙💚💚💛💛👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💪

Beautiful, always great to see CC

Amazing performance!! One of the best, ever! That sound of the bassdrum. WOW. Still you here every dubblebeat

1:51 One of my favorite parts from this solo.

Absolutely brilliant. i love the energetic style he plays. What a machine

Excelente video. Gran mezcla, grandiosas tomas. Un excelente baterísta. Uno de mis videos favoritos

Explosiveness and accuracy level: CHRIS COLEMAN

The whole performance is amazing but that fill at 2.40 has me just constantly rewinding :) What a performance this is....One of the best I have ever seen.

The dude is just a monster on the kit man!!!!😎😎😎👍👍👍

Just WOW! Loved it and those hats were sick :)

I have listened to a lot of drummers that made a cover of this track. And when I say a lot, I mean a LOT (including Kaz himself). But to be honest with NO DISRESPECT especially to Kaz, THIS MAN RIGHT HERE PLAYED TO THIS TRACK THE BEST THAN ANYONE I HAVE EVER WATCHED.

Wot a beast n an epic performance! Inspired to another level. Thanks Chris👏👏

Mr. Chris Coleman. You are awesome an amazing drummer. I once heard you say in an interview that every drummer has a weakness, but you will not reveal yours. Not trying to call you a liar, but I just can't imagine you having any weaknesses. In my opinion, you are flawless.

Omg, I love Chris Coleman. What a badass.

ABSOLUTELY SICK!

one of the craziest performances i´ve ever seen! This guy is a monster!

Love to watch this amazing drumming!!!

2:40👑

And I thought I had seen it all. He made a statement in GO. He is the guy to watch.

Speed and power equals Chris Coleman.

Amazing drummer and the best cymbals ever made!!!!

2:40 - 2:53 wat ._.

One of the most underrated drummers out there!!!!!

You really inspire me...thanks for your videos...God bless you...

you are beast..... hats off sir, the amount of energy you put , is unbelievable thats why you are called the CC power....... no body can match your potential.....

I love his backing tracks. Sounds like a videogame soundtrack

I know there are a sea of drummers out there that are incredible and all but there is something with Chris that sets him apart.. His groove and feeling is something you can spot from only hearing him play for only a few seconds. As well as power to his playing, to have a heavy hand yet be as fast and articulate is a damn pleasure to always watch. He for me is definitely apart of the mount Rushmore of drummers, hands down!

Two people dislike his performance? What's wrong with you guys? I simply love so much how he plays and how great person he is !!! Wish I have a lesson with him and spend time someday

woah

WTF!! Can't stop watching this.. wanna cry😂

Chris Coleman is the 1st drummer to ever have me even CONSIDER switching from pAisTe.. All Around, he is absolutely #1 greetings from Detroit.

🔥GOAT!!! Absolutely amazing! Top MASTERCLASSS☄️💥⚡️🌪🚀!!!!!

totally in love with this video.

2:55 even the camera woman in the back smiles in amazement.

As usual SMASHED. One of the best In the world, CrC, I love when a drummer has his Hi-hat JUMPIN like Chris does so well Nice ass jam track too

Sou muito fã desse batera técnica ampurada toca muito referência pura. Chris Coleman preciso falar mais nada!

Here because of El Estepario Siberiano.

I'm sorry but Chris is from a different universe. Absolutely amazing!
