Rickmaven, here is some dueling drums for ya....

Another great band. IMO

Actually, he used to have a serious case of stage fright. For a while, he couldn't even face the crowd, and stood with his back turned throughout the entire concert.

TG, most of these "unique" individuals all seem to march to the beat of their generation's same freakazoid (LOL) drummer.

Might as well hand out musician uniforms.

RE #22-

Van Morrison disease eh?

Never heard of him!

Thread jack..

Steve, you may want to go to the "Bigfoot" post.

Andy is picking on your momma again.

Jack o..

Reminds me of a modern, dark Yes or King Crimson.

the drummer's name was not danny, it is Terry Bozzio.

Terry Bozio is a KICK ASS drummer.

Major differance Rick.

I don't know who Danny is, but I know who Terry Bozzio is and he's one of Frank Zappa's former drummers. Just being able to get tried out to play for Zappa was a feat in and of itself. Being selected to play for him was a fairly incredible accomplishment.

So, yeah, Bozzio is one hell of a drummer.

I never saw that before...b great link!

best sounding band, concert i have ever been too.july 5th 07 grand rapids michigan

Terry has some set. I remember his transition from traditional drums to an all roto-tom get-up, and then to a full electrinc set.

Obvuiously, he's gone back.

Here's some of his early stuff with Missing Persons:

I might add, he married the singer.

I think this was with Zappa.

"I think this was with Zappa. "

You are correct, that was when he was a member of The Mothers.

More specifically, October 31st, 1979 Madison Square Gardens, NYC.

That footage is found in the "Baby Snakes" movie (available on DVD)

Gotta agree with ya there Steve..........

Forty Six and Two.............are just ahead of me!

I have a few of their albums and it is music that I do enjoy listening to, but greatest metal band of today?

Um... no.
