Once I read bout Addam Nusbaum (a jazz drummer) he was presenting at the Modern Drummer weekend festival, he was playing with guys like Terry Bozzio, Dave Abruzzese (ex pearl jam) and I think Mike Portnoy was there too...

Adam came after a row of blazing solos and hard_to_play chops performed by many of those mentioned above on massive drumkits... he came out to the stage with a newspaper and a pair of brushes... and played "tea for two" sitting in the edge of the stage ON the newspaper.

His approach to music keeps ringing on my head today... he said:

"when it comes to music I don't just want fast hands... but fast ears"

Speed is cool, I wuold love to play as fast as anyone here, but we MUST serve music first... if it fits... go ahead but most of the time it's just Dragonfoce ...cough... cought....I ment posse.
