    I wish I could meet Dave. I was once playing guitar on a porch in Venice Beach. I was strumming about a girl and I look up and I could've swore Dave walked by and then he paused and I could've swore Taylor was with him. I immediately fucked up the song and stood up and walked into the shadows but I remember his face kinda in awe. I'm sure 90 million people will say I'm a liar or making it up but it did happen. Dave had a bottle of wine in his hands as well. I mean it was Abbott Kinney Blvd tons of famous people walk down there all the time but that for me was a crazy moment but it would be nice to see if it was him or if he recalls that memory.

      I might disagree. Sure Dave created the band and 95% of the music. But after 25 years & many albums it's likely a good thing Dave allowed more input on this one. Helps him continue to grow & open up as a musician. Helps reaffirm the band as a whole, and you find out if you can take a few chances. Props to Foo Fighters for keeping their game up!

As far as technical ability, and comparing him to guys like Simon Phillips or Thomas Lang...or even a guy like Brian Tichy, he isn’t on that level in my opinion.

      I disagree. More toms, cymbals, fills, and odd time signatures does not make someone a better drummer. Dave's drumming is deceptive: It sounds simple but if you really break it down, you can see how technical it is. In my opinion at least.
