I think he's pretty proud of Genius In France. If you've read the Chat Transcript it was quite a job. I think best appreciated by a drummer. I'm not sure a non-drummer like me really gets the complexities involved.



I have done a fair amount of Bermuda Surfing, and he really knows his stuff. When he talks shop, it goes right over my head. But I love how it sounds, and I guess that's the point.

Well, I'm kind of a drummer (I'm taking lessons right now), so I kinda know what's going on in that song.

I drum, and from that perspective, I can honestly say that one of the best is "Cavity Search."

You know what's cool? I have that HAND ability! I'm not quite as good as "Musical Mike", but I amaze my friends!

I do like the Genius in France drumming. It took alot, probably his best.

I'd say the drumming is especially spectacular on "Grapefruit Diet", "Airline Amy", "She Never Told Me She Was A Mime", "Your Horoscope For Today", and "Genius In France".
