Whatever man. A good drummer is a good drummer and he's definitely a good one. Everybody has something to offer and it's the individuality that defines us.
Well you could easily get pads that look like real drum kit except maybe the floor tom, some companys make eletric drum cymbals that look like a real cymbal design logo everything.
Sorry Nigel i must disagree.. I just filmed Michael where we had to do take after take. Not only did he play nearly 10 hours straight he flew straight off to do a gig and killed it. He basically smashed the shit out of the kit from start to finish.. As he said in his clinic " No one questions a guitar player when it comes to acoustic or elctric it's just a guitar" Drummers have got to catch up.. PLAY BOTH..
Great ultra-solid drumming but I'd rather listen to this on a acoustic kit. The sounds are a bit ridiculous, especially the toms. I mean, what's with the attack? But overall, I really like the playing style
I hate pure-ists that say "I'd never play on an electric kit." Well, let me tell ya, unless you are micing every drum individually, all drums sound like crap in live situations. Then, you are at the mercy of the board and the operator. Which basically means that the elctronic kit, with all of it's consistency, will actually sound better than most acoustic kits that are mic'd. Atttack on the tom...in the mix the subtle nuances of the attack are lost - covered up by a vocalist or a guitarist
