Yep. I watched an Elvin Jones 'lesson' (haha, good luck there, students) earlier and it looked like he just had a coated Ambassador with some kind of kick pad.

This one?

What a motherfucker that guy was!

Why can jazz drummers play solos but rockers can't?

well, if you're looking for a jazzy sound using those heads, you're doing it wrong.

they're fine for a Standard Rock Kick sound.

They sound like shit up and down. I don't care what it's for. Maybe it's appropriate for a goddamn Kid Rock cover band. Nothing "Standard Rock" about it. Fuck that fucking head.

Impressive and entertaining novelty drumming, but nothing I go out of my way to listen to. I'm not too into sports music. It's the same reason I don't listen to poodle-metal guitar shredders, although B.R.'s work is infinitely more interesting to me than that stuff.

The bus tapes are completely awesome.

I'll say CRAP because I've voted the same way on other virtuouso types whose work doesn't do anything for me in any real way. 10 for the bus tapes.

The timing of this band is INCREDIBLE!! We can't play TWO fucking bars at ONE fucking tempo!!

I'm up there working' my balls off, and you motherfuckers are clammin' ALL OVER this joint!!

Dude could go wap wap wap on the drums but his double kick drum technique was zero. How could anyone who calls themselves a "pro" drummer get off without killar double kick technique. I mean Buddy Rich is blowing clams compared to his betters like the young buck below.

Buddy would have scored a big fat 0 on the "Drumometer"

He also removed the springs from his kick pedal (ludwig speed king) using only using the rebound.

I have tried it... and I have no idea how he was making it work.
