whoa this is wierd, i used to have hair almost exactly like that and i play with pretty much the same style has him, i mean hes better but i do alot of the same stuff he just did
I like the fact that he doesn't show off, well, okay, he does. lol But he plays the drums. He doesn't twirl his sticks and throw them in the air to make it look good. The way he plays and his style looks brilliant without the crap. He just plays drums.
This is probably one of the best drum solo done in a medium size drum without double bass. I like to point out this that he does not stay with one rythim you can hear that this solo has some parts that are heavy metal other parts jazz a lot of groove and many more styles

Yeah, finally! I've always loved his style. I think he's pretty underrated. But he's got a great technique and a great feel. I was fortuned enough to see him play live once. Too bad we don't hear much of him these days.

I know what you're getting at, but they showed him using double bass.
Neptune0100 3 years ago 3
Yea he has used them but only for like one or two years besides I think hes better with single bass.

Yeah, i agree. But maybe its because he also the type of calm drummer. Like Portnoy is more aggressive right. But I love em both.
