I love Jimmy Herring and have enjoyed him throughout his career. The guy is unreal. But he overplays the Panic gig IMO. I mean that's his style and I get it, and I enjoyed the shows with him, but he is just too much. Houser's style was just like butter.
Didn't realize Todd was out. Bummer. I haven't heard the replacement, but his solid 2 and 4 throughout was cool and was one of the WSP signatures. And I am a fan of busy drummers.
I can respect that. I agree that Jimmy's talents are better suited for more exploratory playing than Panic.
BTW, here is WSP and CRB just ripping up a New Speedway Boogie a couple of weeks ago.
AwesomeHere's a funny story: In college I set skis up at the Beech Mtn. rental shop and when Panic came to play at App they all came up to ski and came through the line and we set their skis and my buddy sold them some weed. I went out to take a run and found Nance on the side of the slope all splayed out from a crash just laying there giggling. The end.
We got ours through the AMEX presale. My wife is really excited as she has never seen the stones before.Ticketmaster sucks
Yet, I was somehow able to score two tickets to see the STONES in Raleigh
One more item off the bucket list
Been on a big Beach Boys kick:
Just so many beautiful 2 minute pop masterpieces throughout their catalog. I feel you, Brian Wilson.
ETA -- Mike Love is still an asshole.
