I don't care what the drummer does, as long as he keeps the beat.

As silly as the guy looks, it's actually pretty amazing! Maybe just a little over the top.

Hey, at least he's putting on a show. I bet they'll get more work from that viral vid.

To me it appears quite hilarious, but you don't know what the guy is capable of. And yes, writing about them makes them just a little more famous with each word and sentence.

This is one of my favorite vids of the guy, same gig, but a pretty theatrical take on Wipeout.

I worked sound for a show with Rick K and the Allnighters and saw this guy. He was an absolutely amazing drummer. Rock steady and a really nice down to earth guy too. He was understandably drenched in sweat by the end of the show.

He kind of reminds me of that crazy-@$$ed Gary Busey.
