    It's not uncommon for that to happen. My favorite super-long-going musician is Frank Zappa. Obviously he's known for his joke songs, but he there're recordings where I swear you enter a trance when you hear it and next thing you know you just listened to an hour long guitar concerto.

      Frank Zappa is easily one of the best guitar players of all time and you could make a strong case for him being the single best contemporary composer. I’ve listened to his entire discography even though some of it is pretty unlistenable near the end there.

      But I’ve never seen anything like live death grips. It was arranged like a DJ set with seamless transitions from song to song for 80 minutes.

      Why are you making shit up?

      Bros I just saw them last night in Cleveland, my friend and I were watching him and he did not drink any water that we saw. He *LITERALLY* did not stop playing drums even for two seconds. The vast majority was him absolutely ripping it, only getting “breaks” during slower parts. MC ride took a few water breaks. The guitar player who also somehow did all the samples also did not drink water.

      I’ve never seen anything like it; frankly I’m not sure who was working the hardest. Zero clue how he remember all the WORDS.

        drinking water mid-exercise actually dehydrates you. you need a REAL isotonic drink (not brawndo, which is watered down so fatties don't ACK themselves). but plain water? no. just go in well hydrated beforehand and you will be fine.

    Musicians, not just drummers, burn an incredible amount of calories when they play. I wear a athletic heart rate monitor on my wrist and I am a musician. When I play my heart rate stays up in the 60-90% zone the entire time.
    And I don't play 80 minutes, I play 3 hour long gigs. Often I play 2 90 minute sets with a 10-15 minute break in the middle.
    And I'm not even playing heavy metal music!
