I just think it has better production and a "savage" fill.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Re: DC5 vs. The Beatles
A big part of the appeal of the DC5 version is the garage "scuzz" I mentioned earlier. This KISS version, per usual, sucks all of the charm out of the original. Are you talking about the little triplet fill at like 1:54? What non-drummers find appealing about certain drum bits is always interesting to me.Heston wrote: ↑18 May 2023, 11:25ammatedog wrote: ↑18 May 2023, 10:49amOh that's your response to everything.Heston wrote: ↑18 May 2023, 10:31amHave you checked the KISS version yet?

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

As a non-drummer, my favourite ever drum song to mime to (aside from More Than a Feeling) is "Have You Seen Her Face" by the Byrds, I love the fills in that.

My go-to finger drumming song is The Fall's "Hit the North."
