Not Crap, though that drunken "don't you know who I am?" rampage some years back was kinda cringe. I keep hearing that the BEAT tour was awesome, and though I'm not a Crimson fan by any stretch, I wish I had caught the Albany NY show. Tool is ehhh but they bring joy to some people I care about, and he absolutely dominates at doing his thing. Seems like a chill dude overall. I think he should start a butt rock band with Jerry Cantrell.

This is really hard. I'd never, ever listen to Tool now, but as a teenager they meant a lot to me and his drumming was a huge inspiration.
I guess almost everyone goes through a teen prog phase (and secretly harbors that band into adulthood). It's hard to deny your DNA.

I was going to write "as a drummer, NC" because of his technical ability but then I realised that's like NCing Joe Satriani for his ability to vomit scales.
So NC for teenage andyman, but I don't recommend anyone else do that and I'll assign maximum waffle factors.

I also wanted to see the Beat tour, although it's a shame that Bruford wasn't in. DC's name evokes an obnoxious polyrhythm under a ringing drop-D chord, but he was probably good in the KC context.
We're headed for social anarchy when people start pissing on bookstores.
