    For all the "I love you Dave" comments, I love you Bill Stevenson. The heart and soul behind three of the greatest punk bands of all time.

    Bill Stevenson is by far one of the greatest punk rock drummers and one of the greatest drummers period! And he loves the Beach Boys and that makes me respect him even more!!

    I got to intern at The Blasting Room Studios that Bill owns. I only saw him maybe 10 times in the two years I worked there, but he is a super nice guy and obviously killer drummer. One of the greatest compliments I’ve ever received was him walking in while my band was listening back to our recording and said “Who are these guys, they are really good!?” Life complete

    it's so great that some bands that have made it big give shoutouts to these hugely influential bands that are still kind of under the radar to a lot of people. another example would be that Travis Barker from Blink 182/Transplants has a baby Milo tattoo.

    I learned the drums the same way, not with the pillows or anything, but by listening mainly to Descendents and ALL. I notice that with ALL, Karl and Bill step it up a notch. Amazing band, even more amazing live.

      True but when I think Black Flag I think Robo as his style was early Black Flag the speed and power but he would not have been right for My War as My War has more room to really play open the bass drum up a little and play an the and and the e too. Bill was the best drummer for technique but Damaged is all about speed and power.

    Hope brought me here, which is a classic and one of the bands which made me want to join a band. "Take a quaalude, relax your mind." Excellent and great to hear Dave talk about his punk roots. Bill Stevenson what a multi talented man he is. Milton Keynes Sept 2015 I was there. Break a Leg, as per my T, Dave. My hero as a young drummer was DH Peligro and I was lucky enough to meet him a few years ago and he was an absolute gent and chatted with me quite a while and great hugger too.

    So much respect to Dave knowing that he idolizes fucking Bill Stevenson and John Bonhan as fucking drums gods they are.
