Drumming Was The Only Thing I Was

I Never Had Any Lessons. When I First Started Playing I Used To Read Music. I Was Very Interested In Music. But When I Started Playing In Groups I Did A Silly Thing And Dropped It. It's Great If You Can Write Things Down.

I Think The Marketing Needs Work.

I've Always Been Obsessed With Drums. They Fascinate Me. Any Other Instrument - Nothing. I Play Acoustic Guitar A Bit. But It's Always Been Drums First And Foremost. I Don't Reckon On This Jack-of-all-trades Thing. I Thing That Felling Is A Lot More Important Than Technique. It's All Very Well Doing A Triple Paradiddle - But Who's Going To Know You've Done It? If You Play Technically You Sound Like Everybody Else. It's Being Original That Counts.

People Who Don't Take Care Of Their Drums Really Annoy Me.

I Don't Consider That I'm Particularly Influenced By Anyone Or Anything. But When I Started Playing, I Was Influenced By Early Soul. It Was Just That Feel, That Sound.
