You're clearly right that a lot of those drum sounds aren't acoustic. To be fair, they could be triggered (most likely not). It also sounds like the snare drum is acoustic. I think most of the acustic drums come in at 1:28. Before that, the kick is quite clearly electronic. The hihats are electronic throughout, as evidenced both by their sound, as well as the fact that the drummer stops hitting his hihat once he really gets going, but the sound remains. At the beginning, he's probably just pretending so it'll look good for the video, but then again a lot of artists do that sort of stuff. It's part of making a good show.
