DITTO!!!!! Steve friggin rocks!! I seen him at a clinic last year..Ever seen a hi-hat solo for 45 mins?? I didn't think it could be done.. He continues to get better as he gets older

Bass isn't easy is you're good... Bass, like drums, like anything is only as easy as you make it.

Try giving one of Victor Wooten's/Jaco Pastorius' riffs a whirl, then tell me bass is easy.

[DeepThought]

How'd you like the show, drutch? I'm going to see CAB next week :)

[dRuTcH]

I guarantee you'll enjoy the show, they played a coupe songs from CAB4, they skiped 3 for some reason.

Jeez.....it was a musician joke!!! You've never told one of theese?!!??!! are u in a band?

[MFDFdrums]

yea dude, im not a moron. but someone mentioned victor, and i know that derico plays with him sometime. just wondering if anyone has heard of the drummer, derico watson. I wasn't commenting on the whole quote, just the name. and yes i'm in a band.

I thought nelly's drummer was a machine, like so many other rap artists. I stretch far and wide when I use the term "artist". I could be nelly's drummer with one hand, while asleep. Now, watch a Mike Portnoy DVD and then tell me who's wack. Ya wanker.

[punkkk21]

Yeah, I second that. The only thing on the "drum set" that ever changes in rap is the hi-hat.... Wanker :D

Ya, I quit playin for like almost a year, when I first started, after seein Neil Peart at a RUSH show way back in 86'. I actually sold my old '62 Ludwigs I had @ the time(stupid me)and figured that I'll never play like that!!!...Well, cuz this musical bug that bit me when I was 8 would not leave me alone, after a year, I went and told myself that I WILL play like Neil someday.......Bought some more drumz, and after almost 20 years, haven't given it up yet....
Got 2 albums under my belt, opened up for the likes of Pantera, GWAR, and L.A Guns and even did 2 headlining tours(1 w/ GWAR in 96)........SO DON'T QUIT!!!......you will get your just rewards....

I haven't seen the Steve Smith DVD, but....if you want to see a little real scary hi-hat stuff, go to www.drummerworld.com - there are a big bunch of video clips on that site, and the one in question features one Buddy Rich. The video clip is

buddyrichhihathi.mov

He does a solo round the rims, hi-hat and cymbals. Enjoy.
