I love Richard Christy as an album drummer, but he doesn't really impress me that much as a soloist. None of this stuff is particularly difficult to do, but the main thing is that there doesn't seem to be any structure to the solo.
OMG. Never in my life will I respect a drummer who doesn't keep their fucking pinkies on the stick!!!!! It looks so amateurish, and it makes your doubles/diddles sound like shit. My friend posted this link, like "this is so sick." No, this makes me sick...
@Drum3r541 Two things, brother. (a) If your pinkies stay on the sticks, you can't use something we drummers like to call finger technique, and (b) if a drummer is better than you and he uses a different finger technique than you, that is no reason for you to lose respect for said drummer. This drummer is good enough for Death, hence he's equal to Reinert and Hoglan on the ability scale, and with that immense talent, regardless of his pinkies or your ego, he's worthy of even your respect
@shredaholic86 That idiot cmicheal67 has a vid of Dido featured on his page, so that should tell you that this fool don't know what the fuck its talking about. Nothing against Dido, I love all artist but DAMN!!
I'm not digging it. Too much wanking and not enough GROOVE! Thomas Haake or Gavin Harrison would rip this guy's face off. Mario Duplantier would destroy him!!
@captvanhalen hey...that guy drummed for death...its a sin to say anything bad about death and its members in the metal world...go listen to a death album and then comeback!!!!
Bababoo.... aw f-ck it, he is an amazing drmumer.

Is that the duck that Bigfoot and Blue Iris were trying to sell?
From the mind of Richard Christy-
Bigfoot: "One is missing their beak it is because it was up my wifes cunt it is it was."..
Blue: "Yeah, I had a duck in my ass. I farted and his beak flew off."
