    I’m so happy for this generation of drummers that they have access to this kind of knowledge. Back when I was a young drummer fanboying on DC, Tool and DC had such a mystique that all we had to go by was a handful of interviews and Blair’s mostly BS newsletters. Highlights included tall tales like pumping helium into his drums on 10,000 Days. 😆

    For a fan like me that’s been waiting 25 years for an interview with the king DC, I’m disappointed with the questions that were asked. Danny has a goldmine of wisdom to share to the world and this interviewer asks why does he like electronics. What a waste of Danny and his fans time. So much more to dive into, this was more like a catch up at the store randomly in a target aisle.
    Next time can we get someone with a media background to ask the right questions to this living legend and greatest of all time drummer imo
