What the f**k?

I'm gonna have to agree with wtfdudenotcool101, this drummer is all over the place way too much, in particularl throwing Allan's timing off, for example @5:30 I can't imagine too many musicians wanting to use him if he does more of this, and if so, I can't imagine his phone ringing much.

If that's true, he'll learn the hard way.

@zoozazoot He's not a super cool dude. He's got to be the center of attention no matter who he's playing with.

The music is secondary. it unfortunate. But that's why he gets fired from many bands. There are times when someone's soloing and he'll just stop playing after a big feel prematurely ending the players's solo.

He's an arrogant ass with monstrous ability but very little in the way of musical taste.

@jamesedwardtheobald and if u remember alan got a lotta recognition playing with tony williams(who was known for playing loud, hard and fast).who, ironicly, is the original drummer on this song.

@jamesedwardtheobald if u've ever seen him with other artists then u'd see that there are times when he's just holding down a groove.

[marc777danielle]

@jamesedwardtheobald alan wants him to play like that or he wouldnt be on the gig.

The H&K may be Switchblades. I think the Mesa may be an F series, not 100% sure though.
