So I've been kind of obsessing over
Fool in the Rain
for the last week or so. Yes, just the one song. I do that sometimes. But I keep thinking about something Kec said once a few years back about Don Was saying something about Dave Grohl being the only other human being besides Bonzo to have perfect time. And then I found this you tube video of his drum out takes for FitR: [link] (NSFW language right at the top)
The man sounds like a precision timepiece. A drunken, swearing, precision timepiece.
Also, I'm blown away by how small his kit is.

Except for the Double Bass drums. (Which he used to line with tin foil, while other drummers were dampening them with pillows.)
I listened to a song by Skrillex.
So...that's dubstep, huh?
I will stick with Prodigy.
I have no idea what "dubstep" is, but I imagine it to be dubiously consenting Lord of the Dance.
ETA: Isn't Skrillex the evil thing in The dark Crystal?
I listened to a song by Skrillex.
Is it that "Call 911 now" song?
I will stick with Prodigy.
Fogey. Be sure to lay in ample quantities of the uniform - driving hat, shorts pulled up to your chest, white socks up to your knees and brown sandals. Then practise driving 5 under the speed limit in the overtaking lane with the headlights on in broad daylight. Psychosomatic addict insane indeed.

It was "Scary Monsters and Drink Some Sprite" or whatever.

Hey! They are totally still around!
I think the only dubstep thing I have listened to the very end of is that dubstep Beetlejuice thing, and that was only out of morbid curiosity. I am perfectly fine with being a cranky old lady about not understanding dubstep. These kids today with their
WUBWUBWUBWUBWUB
remix things. I just need a skull-topped walking stick to wave at them.
