Some great examples there, especially Topper. A personal favorite. I think Wilco does a great job recording Glenn Kotche's drums

Glenn for Matt? No bueno...Love both right where they are...Wouldn't mind Pearl Jam recording in The Loft, though.
Wilco engineers a PJ record.

I meant trading to get Cass here.

And I couldn’t live through another period where Glenn takes over from a drummer I like. Coomer was a good drummer.

I'd gladly quit posting if it meant they posted here. I would still get to scroll anonymously and read. That'd be fascinating.
Ken was a fantastic drummer. Entirely underrated, overshadowed only due to Glenn's singular brilliance.

It will probably never be clarified. Ghanea doesn't really do interviews.

Guys, I hate UPS Mail Innovations. It is the worst shipping option in existence. It's all the sloppiest UPS practices with the sloppiest post office practices added on top all for the cost of the most luxurious UPS options
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Yeah we were just saying this
UPS mosies my package to the post office, and they jerk off on it for 3 days before handing it to a guy who will swing by and set it on my porch in the rain and/or blazing sun.
