I'm with the Jimmy-worshippers here. Like Keith Moon, he has to be seen to be believed, and even then, I have to rub my eyes to make sure I'm not imagining things. Surely one of the top 5 greatest rock drummers ever.
@mtopper66 Yeah totally agree. And his playing on Thru the eyes of Ruby from that same gig is truly astonishing- with the band finally catching up with him! And having bought Jimmy's new stuff with Skysaw (the singer ain't great) AND hearing a bunch of the new Pumpkin stuff (drummer not great either)something tells me they'll hook-up again one day.
Has Billy Corgan seen this? This is how he should be performing, I know he's not the same age, and energy level goes down with age but anything is better than the crap he's been making lately...
@hcastillo It may not be the same type of Pumpkins, but he's still making some good music. People change. He writes what he wants. If a band is writing to please fans and not writing what they want, then they're sell outs just as if they were writing to please a label.
@hcastillo No dude he still puts on damn good shows, even if you don't like the new music you still have appreciate the great new lineup, and the great shows they put on.
It is still good, but the feeling is different. The feeling is now more like a job that he takes very seriously and puts a lot of effort into, whereas, in this video it is more like he is letting you in his world, like "hey, come here, I have something to show you, it's going to blow you away."
haha a bit of tension there at the beginning
