Yes, I agree that if you're going to play drums, you should be able to play the drums. Many people think 'playing' is 400 tempo with nothing but blast beats and double bass. One of the fuckin heaviest bands to come out of Boston was Otis (RIP), not 'metal' persay, just a shit-ton wall of sound. They had a 'NO TOM DRUM' rule, and it was full enough to liquify bones! The drummer simply knew how to work the kick and snare. Similar things come to mind with ACDC and Rolling Stones. Bill Ward plays the same beat in every song, but it worked!

There definately is a difference between writing music, and playing music, especially with percussion. This is something that takes time and maturity as a player to realize; it did for me.

What's your background? Where did you move to Boston from? Any other groups previously?
