You gotta larf.................. :-)

Dear ol lord..

[Roland Rock]

He's not annoying, he's just at the wrong gig :-)

FYI, if you see some mocking comments, it's because this video has gained infamy due to multitudinous postings on BC

I'm going to watch it again, though, for old time's sake :-)

What type of strings does he use?

In the interests of balance & fairness should this thread not also have a pic of an Oriental transvestite slap bassist?

He's not annoying.

He's a showman. And I bet it gets them bookings. So fair play to him.

I think we have been Drumrolled...again

The drummer is far more entertaining than the guitarist who can't even be bothered to replicate the very distinctive tones of some of the tracks the band are covering.

and considering his athletic antics he's not keeping bad time at all, if anything the guitarist is dragging

Considering his athletic antics he's brilliant.

Sadly, f you took him away from the band there would be very little left of note (IMHO).

Steve Moore is a legend. This is a proper old vid but he's made a very tidy career in recent years as a result of it. I saw him live in vegas years ago with Rick K and The Allnighters and didn't know whether to laugh at first.

I thought this was going to be a thread about Lars Ulrich from Metallica. sh*t.

I think this guy's playing is just fine.

He's just accentuating moves that many of the US marching bands already use.

That drummer is brilliant! Anyone notice he goes more crazy when the guitarist is soloing? I think he's trying to upstage him

Not exactly difficult. The guitarist is the weakest link.

This is pretty much the equivalent of the BC national anthem. Long live the meme!

You can't expect a strat to sound like Pearly Gates. He could at least have taken an LP to the gig with him.

He was slightly dragging the last few bars because he was trying to rake the pick and began the rake on the beat which made the leading edge of his note at the top of the rake late. To get that right in this context you have to rake in front of the beat so that the leading edge of the note at the top of the rake appears on the beat. I prefer to leave rakes to music where it adds to the effect if the note at the top comes in after the beat. In this song, it detracts.

Altho' he is as mad as a march hair he's a fantastic drummer.. Have a look at this
