My turn to weigh in. I have been fortunate enough to play with drummers who were the good, the bad, and the ugly. Remember those gigs when the only drumming background you would get was "Wipeout" even to a polka!. For the most part I have seen, heard, and played with some very talented drummers. Somewhere there are a few clips of Tommy E. playing drums backing other guitar players at a guitar festival. Also check out Don Thompson (Toronto), the guy is a very accomplished vibist, keyboard, bass, and drummer. Our own drummer in our swing band read and played: drums, xylaphone, marimba, and other percussion instruments. Every March our band took a hiatus because most of us played an the orchestra for light opera productions such as Oklahoma!, Anything Goes, Chicago, etc. Brent played floor kit, timpanis, triangle, bells, etc. all to an orchestra score. I played guitar and banjo. I suppose it all boils down to either you like it or you don't like it, you enjoy it or you don't enjoy it. I remember the schictk that Homer and Jethro played, but if you ever get a chance to listen to anything off their "Playing Straight" album it will knock your socks off. Thanks DennisD
