it is a bit of a wait, isn't it. They couldn't have picked a better country though

Yet another thread jumps it's tracks and head off towards footcall off-topic-ness. And this time there is no one to blame but myself

I think Quifflet is just as much to blame this time.

yeah, but he likes football, whereas I think it's just an excuse for a bunch of grown men to run around in their pants.

Do grown men need an excuse for that?

Aren't you making an assumption there that may turn out to be a little rash?

good point

On topic and on off topic



Last time I was at the Holy Ground (once more, fine girl ye are)!

Off at a tangent but back on topic, when my eight year old saw this as he walked by he said 'Daddy, 'drummers' ...tell Heartland I like the Bernard Matthews turkey ones ...'

Out of the mouths of babes and children.

Doktor Avalanche, no doubt - my all-time favourite rock star

Drum solos I have enjoyed:
#1 Kingdom Come, supporting the dreadful Magnum, Glasgow Barrowlands, sometime in the 80s. I only went because I thought their first album was brilliant (remember, it had been a long time since we had heard any serious Zeppelinish sounds), Magnum to me were a 'pie & beans' circuit type of band, i.e. on every second month at t'workenmens cloob, 'appen.
A mate forced me to stay for Magnum, I lasted all of.... oh, 69 seconds.

Drum solos I have enjoyed:
#2

there were no more

Not even Cozy Powell's Dance With The Devil?

No, Thrash.

Umm..showing me age here - but Charlie Watts is the survivor -
Sympathy For The Devil Anyone....?

A man of taste and feel....and style....and he's not dead yet

Apart from that have to agree about the Alesis SR-16....

Mind you the 56 room snare sample, I can take or leave

Can't decide between Kevin Haskins (Bauhaus|Tones On Tail|Love And Rockets), John Lever (Chams et al), 'Big' Paul Ferguson (Killing Joke|Pigface etc), Martin Atkins (PiL|Ministry|Lard|Pigface etc etc) or Neil Simms (Catherine Wheel) so I'm cheating and having them all.

Common denominator? Well.... I'm a drummer meself and I always used to spend a lot of time at gigs watching the drummers (present company excepted; stared at the strobes instead ) trying to pick up tips and figure out patterens. All the above managed to drum "as if they were trying to knock their kits into a more interesting shape" whilst maintaing an aura of boredom exemplified by Mr Charlie Watts. The "Have I left the gas on?" expression of the uber-sticksman.

Chris 'Podboy' Vrenna is a bloody good drummer as well, but not quite in this league.

I watch drummers too....but for completely DIFFERENT reasons....
