I do.
Best vocal talent in the band.
Underutilzed. Did I spell that wrong?
Case in point = Breaking Circus records and Brick Layer Cake records.
Suave.
Lotsa indie-rock weenies gripe about his shining moment on that third Shellac record, "New Number Order" or whatever it's called, but I think it's one of the better moments!
I'm not wrong, so you can't correct me!

Drummers make shitty lead vocalists - regardless how much of a boner you have his voice.

You may be right, but you're wrong, and that's different from being not wrong.
You stand corrected!
What is this? A crappy PIL song?

Nice. Seriously - name me a great band where the drummer sings. You'd have to put Steve on drums - and then you'd have to find an aluminum drumkit.

Fine.
I agree about the drummer singing part, really. They could just have Mr. Trainer step forward during some drumless bits and say something witty. Seriously!

Hah - the last time I saw them he did just that. At some point the bass drum mic got messed up, and Steve leaned down to fix it -at which point Mr. Trainer stepped forward and noted how "professionally the mic had been put in place - like he had been doing it for years" or something to that effect.
Agreed - everyone needs a vocal mic in that band.
