So I primarily play drums and last night a long time performance dream of mine came true. During noise breakdowns, solos, or someother time when proficiency is unnecessary I will occasionally climb up on to the drum kit and play from up there. Last night during the noise breakdown/ solo in the middle of a really poppy song I did this. I got onto the stool, then one foot on the floor tom, then the other foot on the bass drum, and then the thing i had been hoping for since I started doing this maybe a year ago happened. The leg of the floor tom gave, my leg shot out from under me, and I crash landed, sending nearly every piece of the drums scattering. The crowd freaked out, my band kept playing and I the bass, snare, and hihat up again to come back in on the poppy part. Gangster shit.

Nice......i love that shite too.

Has anyone seen the Henry Rollins DVD "Live at Luna Park"? It is a few years old. Its a spoken word thing and one of the bits is about his obsession with one upping Iggy Pop. He has played with him 3 times (Rollins Band, as of the dvd) and each time he talks about pouring it all in and being at the top of his game and then just looking like a chump when Iggy comes on and blows him out of the water. Its one of the funnier things I've heard from Rollins and his description of Iggy has been a big influence on me, performance wise.


WAIT! It's on YouTube

IGGY POP IS GANGSTER

Isn't that an exact scene from 'Spinal Tap'?
That's some Mick Shrimpton steez.
