I almost walked out during the time machine tour because they removed the washing machines. How else am I supposed to remember to do the laundry on Rush concert night?!

shail Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 nothing new here. he improved the solo last tour also. he might get rid of the big band crap this time around. it's going to be more of the same every single night. he doesn't have much vocabulary at all. he will play the same drum ostinato in three. boom chick chick boom chick chick. same tambourine trigger. the drum solo is the perfect time to get a beer and take a pee.

Maybe if you hate drums in general. Otherwise I disagree with most of what you posted, aside from the assumption that the waltz will be there--I'm sure it will be, because any drummer will tell you--playing 3/4 with your feet, and then wandering all over different time signatures with your hands at the same time is something very few drummers learn outside of hardcore jazz drummers. Why would any drummer not want to showcase the pinnacle of their achievements on the drums? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shail Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 very familiar with ostinatos. could fill up this entire thread with tons of links of drummers playing them. terry bozzio plays some really complex ones. it's the one part of his solo i like just cause there is some independence going on. hey it's all good. just been there done that. not into it anymore. once you have heard everything tony williams, vinnie colaiuta, weckl, chambers, gadd, gavin harrison and a million others the stuff neil plays is... well you know.
