But I Think That Any Young Drummer

I Play A Percussion Instrument, Not A Musical Saw; It Needs No Amplification. Where It's Needed, They Put A Microphone In Front Of The Bass Drum. But, I Don't Think It's Necessary To Play That Way Every Night.

Average Band With A Great Drummer Sounds Great, Great Band With An Average Drummer Sounds Average.

To Have Everything Written For You It's Not Really Creating. That's Why I Think Symphony Drummers Are So Limited. They 're Limited To Exactly What Was Played A Hundred Years Before Them By A Thousand Other Drummers.

Every Drummer That Had A Name, Had A Name Because Of His Individual Playing. He Didn't Sound Like Anybody Else, So Everybody That I Ever Listened To, In Some Form, Influenced My Taste.

But, When You Have To Resort To Turntables, Trick Lights, Flashing Lights, Fire And All That, You're Actually Saying, I Need This Because What I Do Is Not All That Together.
