Re: Omar Hakim interview

I remember seeing this as a teenaged drummer and knowing I was seeing some incredible stuff, but with absolutely no idea what was going on. He had an amazing solo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbhqqGg0rEg This was also really cool, I forget what channel Rockschool used to be on, probably PBS. Brin...

Re: Steve Smith

And to think prior to that he was playing some really crazy rock-jazz shit with Ronnie Montrose, and before that with Ponty creating a new power fusion jazz-rock language.

"His ego is as big s the Grand Canyon!"

That's why he plays a bigger bass drum and has larger crashes.

Re: Thirty Years of Ten Summoners Tales

Jeez,I remember where I was when I learned about this, and how the next record wasn't quite as good. Digging in deep to being a drummer then, but still VC was out of reach.

I got a gig playing with a Keith Urban tribute. Didn't know who he was, but this should be a fun gig.

The audience is quite different than a Pink Floyd tribute gig.

Solid drumming.
