Gandhi Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 (re: Thomas Lang) He's some cookie. 8O Russell Gair is doing a great job bringing these guys to Shetland. Amazing to see so many enthusiastic people there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mag Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 He was unbelievable. How did he play completely different but coordinated rhythms with each of his 4 limbs at that speed? Do you think he's really an agent from the Matrix? And I agree, Russell has promoted drumming in Shetland to a really exciting standard.

Mini Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 I was thoroughly impressed, well done Russell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radarman Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 Awesome!! I was impressed with the double stroke rolls - speeding up and slowing down with the hands then doing the opposite with his feet at the same time! By the sounds of it he won't be the last world class drummer to come to Shetland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sags Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 It was a truly amazing clinic, and so different from the Billy Ward and Steve White ones. Who would you like to see in Shetland? Lets be hearing you. My own preference would be Chad Smith or Stewart Copeland, or a cameo performance from my ultimate hero, Reni from the Stone Roses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radarman Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 From what I hear an appearance from Chad is not all that unlikely. He's mates with Steve White who Russell now has strong connections with! 8O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sags Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Now den Radarman, would your preference be more of a Neil Peart slant? I want to know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radarman Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Why not him too!!? If he can get Thomas Lang? I'll have to dig out that old Rush albums, you've inspired me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radarman Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 I'd like to see the big man - Dennis Chambers, he'd funk up da Garrison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowrie Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 I dunna tink Neil Peart's full drum kit could fit on da stage o da Garrison! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sags Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Ah Dennis Chambers, he is indeed a big man, with a huge pocket (look that one up non drummers, nothing to do with Jamieson) He'd be amazing, or his pupil Tony Royston Jnr. Steve Smith would also be incredible. I think Pearts kit is bigger than Thomas Langs, but it would fit. Where would you put him on? Garrison, Clickimin, Muckle Roe Hall?

Marjolein Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Yeah Chad and Steve White used to play together, Steve White had hilarious stories about Chad. Speaking of Steve White, Russel is wanting him to come up again and bring his bassist too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peeriebryan Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 or his pupil Tony Royston Jnr Would you please welcome 12 year old Tony Royster Juniorhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BkY98CUjQ4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sags Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Yes peerie bryan, an impressive solo for a 12 year old! I wonder if he got paid in sweeties, or was he promised a really cool kite if he played well? I would have offered him an unlimited pass to rollerdiscos for a 6 month period, and as many free games of pool at 60 north as he so desired.
