i should have known you would say something terrible

the best drummers are the ones who make it sound a little sloppy and ragged, even though it's not.

I like Matt Cameron

Tying it all together

I can play a Chad Smith song. You’ll know it’s not him playing, but I can do it. On the other hand it would take a ton of very dedicated practice to play a Danny Carey song and if it involves a lot of fast double bass, forget about it. Playing super super fast also difficult regardless of time signature.

Different players have a different style/groove/musical personality. 4/4 is also easier (more natural) than anything else. Both are concurrently true.

Do you have a double bass pedal?

I do, and it’s daunting. Just got it maybe a year ago. Old dog, new tricks.

can't get enough of this porch jam

Ed sounds so fucking good. Really, he sounds amazing....Why Go, Given To Fly and Baba O Reilly are must.

Fantastic show! WMA is insane! Awesome 7oclock, throw your hatred down, rear view dissident

damn, i love this boot

i am just catching up on these May shows now and am totally blown away by this... Oakland night 1 has some good vids but they took it to a whole other level on night 2... best PJ show in 20 years probably... no coincidence it is because MATT CAMERON IS NOT ON DRUMS ... and yes he was good in 98 and 2000 but not since... i love matt c to death with soundgarden but this just shows what all of us Dave A people had been clamoring about for DECADES ... GET A FUCKING BETTER DRUMMER IN THERE AND THIS BAND CAN DO GREAT SHIT ... jesus fucking christ how many years wasted with this limp dick stuff... but that aside - some real grail tracks from this show, off the charts stuff.
