OGE Regarding Bruford
Drencrom Droog
I must rebuke all of you who have the unmitigated audacity to actually comment
about one of the GURU's of drums/percussion, in a negative, critical, or
disrespectful manner!!!
The underpants "joke" was absolutely PATHETIC!!!!
Jesus Christ himself could not play drums better than Bruford.
And I must say, that between those 2, it would most likely be Jesus who wears
the "too-tight" fruit of the looms!
Who can name just one drummer who has had a career like Bruford's?
The list is AWESOME :
YES, King Crimson, GONG, Genesis, National Health, Patrick Moraz, Kazumi
Watanabe, Jamaldeen Tacuma, David Torn, Amsterdam Percussion Ensemble,
etc....
God damn, talk about why he holds his left hand stick backwards???
Might as well wonder what the deep, cryptical meaning behind the fact that he
wears socks with his shoes :)
Anyways, I am sorry but let's all do a little research on THE MAN.
The fact is : when Bruford first played with YES, he didn't have mic's on his
kit, and because of the volume competition going on between him and the
electric instruments when playing live, he had to find a way to at least get
his snare drum
to cut through. Thus he adopted the style of striking the snare with the
"butt-end"
of his stick; and this, combined with utilizing the rim-shot technique, made
the recipe for his signature snare sound. Also, one person made a statement of
truth
when he/she said that Bruford feels that his left hand is weaker and less
coordinated than his right. He openly admits that on his video: Bruford & The
Beat.
So, the extra weight of the "butt-end" of the stick does help his left hand a
bit.
Although, personally, I feel that bruford is in another realm of drumming than
most people out there & could probably do more interesting things with just his
left hand alone, than an octopus!!! Bruford is a humble genius... THE END

Yes no one should be able to say anything critical of this legend. Period.

Bruford, but that's only because Jesus played the sax. He preferred to
blow, not to beat.

By extension, under the doctrine of Papal Infallibility, Pope John Paul II can
play any instrument better than anyone else. He just chooses not to.
Is it a coincidence that his name is 1/2 of the Beatles? I think not.

He wears a ring too.
Plus he's never been seen in the same place and time as St. George.

I don't think "pathetic fanboyism" does this post justice. Not only was this
the most unique post I've seen around here in some time, but the question about
Bruford's technique was finally answered. Something I don't think had truly
been accomplished in nearly 20 posts in the original thread.

Unique sig indeed, but does that really have anything to do with the guy's post

Let me get this straight, he's going to give you *his* personal address,
so he can come and kick your ass?
This reminds me of the joke about the guy who caught his wife fucking
another man. He pulls out a gun, points it to his head and tells them,
'You're next'.

I saw it online also recently, but it's an old joke and I'd have been
reminded of it by our Droogie's stupidity in any case.

Everything seems to lead to that joke eventually. I wonder if it's some kind of
sign... :)

Greg, Alan, Dave, Phil ... he can dethrone Bruford in ten or may be
twenty years from now.

Shrub isn't of a stature to be "Great White" anything...
Did you hear who his new Commisioner of National Parks is? (Believe that was

Guess we can kiss Yellowstone goodbye. By the time they get done logging and
mining it, it'll look just like the Grand Canyon.
