If You Think You Stink, You Probably

I Play A Percussion Instrument, Not A Musical Saw; It Needs No Amplification. Where It's Needed, They Put A Microphone In Front Of The Bass Drum. But, I Don't Think It's Necessary To Play That Way Every Night.

Almost Everything I've Done, I've Done Through My Own Creativity. I Don't Think I Ever Had To Listen To Anyone Else To Learn How To Play Drums. I Wish I Could Say That For About Ten Thousand Other Drummers.

I Think At One Time Every Drummer Wanted To Play Like Krupa Or Wanted To Win A Gene Krupa Drum Contest. This Is The Big Inspiration For Drummers And Naturally It Has To Be The Same Way For Me.

To Have Everything Written For You It's Not Really Creating. That's Why I Think Symphony Drummers Are So Limited. They 're Limited To Exactly What Was Played A Hundred Years Before Them By A Thousand Other Drummers.

As Far As Music School Goes, I Walked Through Berkelee One Time.
