The Pot by Tool

The Pot is one of the few 4/4 Tool songs, but is far from straightforward as they've done their best to de-emphasize the tendencies we all have in 4/4. The middle of the song is one of my favorites to listen to as it is very effective in creating a mysterious vibe. Danny's fill and set-up to the fill going into the 1st china section is my favorite of any Tool song. I love the musicality of it!!

It is critical that every drummer develop their own unique style and interpretation. Therefore, I do not memorize any song exactly. I have spent 30 years playing drums and have developed my own style, which I prefer. I keep my playing within the framework of the song and will play a part exact if that part is either iconic (like Phil Collins In The Air Tonight) or critical to the success of the song.

Thank you for watching and lots of success drumming!!
