-
thats an amazing style! but its really simple that they just replaced where the snare would be with the kick
-
drummer supreme.

@srekal88 The difference between what he is talking about, and a kid with a drum machine, is that the kid with the drum machine does very little work. It's like taking a picture of a famous work of art as opposed to repainting it. If you're ripping off somebody's riff or beat, a musician still has to put in an enormous amount of work to be able to play it. I have nothing against samplers and drum machines per se, but they are studio tools, and are not really comparable to real instruments.

why does sting get all the credit for the police?! its clear from this short clip that stewarts style was the basis of their sound... think of stings solo stuff, its totally different. stewart deserves just as much if not more credit for the polices music
-
love him. what a talent.

I couldn't play a lick of guitar or piano but I discovered I could coordinate my four limbs to make rhythms and keep time from the start. I agree with half of what Stewart Copeland says about it being easy. Drums come very easy to some people. Not many but some.

Hero.
He's not arrogant. He's just being humorous. Stewart's gotta be my favourite member of the group.

He's so freaking good, the drums are like a part of his body.
