Bob, I think you probably have missed out on what this band is all about. It's about this drummer's schtick. That's about it. There's a reason you haven't heard of Rick K. and the Allnighters - it's a gag band where the centerpiece IS the drummer.

The whole point of the band is crummy gold lamé jackets and a drummer that has a show. That's about it.

On 'Sharp Dressed Man', listen to the singer - do you think that anyone is there to hear that singer do that song? Do you think that's why they got hired for that gig? - no way. They landed the gig most likely based upon the antics of the drummer and the other guy with the 4th lamé jacket. It's a schtick band - plain and simple.

And regarding this comment: "Drums are what you play if you can't play anything else!" WOW - I sure hope your'e joking because this is exactly opposite of my experience. There's a reason 'good' drummers are hard to find and it's not because drums are so incredibly easy to play on time with skill and panaché.
