@gotham61, Absolutely, and I don't make myself real clear either. I'm no writer, but I can see you watching this video thinking "He does not play like Mitch Mitchell. A tribute band SHOULD play like the band they are paying tribute too. This sucks." and that's sad, because you might have really enjoyed the drummer if you didn't believe that idea. That expectation caused you dissapointment.
Just try to see things without any expectations. That way, you see more of the good in things.
@1971SuperLead "All that mud slinging leaves you covered in mud." That's a two way street my friend.
Just to clarify my job without getting into specifics, I use my 30+ years of expertise to write reviews of equipment, that will hopefully help consumers to make informed buying decisions. I see that as a public service, and not "the most dangerous job ever".
@gotham61 Again, I'm not putting you down for being snobbish. I'm trying to tell you that being a snob only hurts you.
The ego trip is like jumping from a plane without a chute. It's fun for awhile but you always end up getting hurt. The ego trip is the eatin of the forbidden fruit. The "knowledge" of good and evil. The truth is, the more you think you can tell good from bad the more disappointed with life and people you become. To top it off. All that mud slinging leaves you covered in mud.
@gotham61 I didn't say I was free from being a critic. Also, I didn't say the love for this drummer was not understandable. I merely said your expectations are higher than ours. I'm not putting you down. I'm just sharing my own experiences with you. I too can be a snob, but I see the folly in it and am active to free myself from such thinking.
Yes, I hate a loud, flat, lagging snare. But should everyone hate it? I'm trying to remove the word "should" from my vocabulary. It's very rewarding.
@gotham61 You said, "I don't understand all this love for the drummer." You could only feel that way if you thought your expectations were universally valid to some degree. No one is completely free from being a critic, but some people stand out.
I see your a critic for a living! lol That may be the most dangerous job ever! I hope you don't take yourself seriously. It is the road to hell. Believing that you can judge anything without damning yourself is an error beyond measure.
very powerful cover great performance o a jimi classic, thanks...

@1971SuperLead You also wrote "Believing that you can judge anything without damning yourself is an error beyond measure."
Yet just minutes before that you wrote, "You're a bit of a snob aren't you? I can tell."
It always amazes me how some people are completely blind to their own hypocrisy.

@1971SuperLead The irony of that comment is fantastic. You're criticizing me for being a critic! Haha
You're the one who said "There is nothing worse than a flat snare in front of the mix", and spoke of "cymbals that sound like trash metal can lids."
I'm the one who responded "I'm far more interested in someone's playing ability, than in how expensive and "good" sounding their gear is."
And you're calling me the snob?
