    Well, nobody can say they're not doing something different & don't have their own sound going on.
    Would it save you a lot of time if I just gave up and went mad now?

    That was one of the "most unique" things I wish I never had seen.

    If you close your eyes though, it's easy to remember 1978 . . .

    ha ha - that was great! Normally I hate that kind of music, but those guys deliver. Of Estonian punk bands with bass mandolin, they have jumped to the top of my list!

    Jefflester, what in the world were you searching for when you came across THAT? You better erase your search history before your wife finds out what you're doing online!

    I came across it on a drummers forum in a thread about playing drums upside down (there's a good clip of Buddy Rich doing it on youtube).

    Even if it was a free concert, I would demand my money back.

    I watched the whole thing--it was like not being able to look away from a wreck...
    And I was kind of amused.

    Ok, it was funny, but I had to look away after the first 10 seconds, I did manage to get about half way through before my ears couldn't take any more either. :-)

    I am a sometimes drummer and I found myself wondering what it is like to play hanging upside down.
