He's good but he's not that good. I've seen him play a couple of covers. His timing is off a little in some parts, but he's amazing with double bass and speed.Speaking of Rush, multiple musicians thought this guy should have been the replacement drummer for Neil Peart. This guy is incredible!
She's my favorite female singer, and she was a great drummer too. Never saw her live either.Well this is an old thread.
Not sure about the drummer - fave drummer was Karen Carpenter, but never saw her live (she died when I was ...3)
Don't have milestones in NZ. Our signs are speed limit signs in kilometres, so if you going 100km and hour you've made it on the motorway, but if you go over, you will get a speeding ticket.
Moral of the story - don't drive too fast....and never drive when drunk or under the influence. For you will crash. And possibly injure and kill somebody, if not yourself.
I guess it's easy to look incredible when you only see snapshots of someone playing the drums in clips that went off great. I agree that Anika Nilles is a great drummer, and I wish her the best with Rush.He's good but he's not that good. I've seen him play a couple of covers.

I think they wouldn't have come back if their friend didn't introduce them to Anika. Anika already toured with Jeff Beck who was a legendary guitarist (RIP), and I think she's a great choice although her music style isn't my cup of tea. She composes and plays fusion-style instrumentals. I think she'll do great in Rush because she's already a very technical player and no stranger to odd time signatures. She's also a great drummer!![]()
Just click the blue arrow under your avatar. It shows post count. I didn't know about that feature either until a few days ago. I didn't even know it was an arrow. I thought it was a blue circle.Wow, someone resurrected this thread from 2015??!!!
*Seoulsearch gears up her favorite rocking chair, and starts to knit like the good old lady, not-controversial-old-at-all old lady that she is.*
2015 was a good year...
So my thread count from 2009 - 2015 was apparently 400 -- if any mod has access to the data and would care to share it, I'd be interested in seeing what it is now in 2026.
When I started going back to live chat, someone asked me if I was new -- and it made me grin from ear to ear.![]()

Thread count - Go to Find Threads at top of your page in the toolbar.
Click on it. Check the number of pages right at the bottom, x20 and you have the number of threads you started, minus the last number of threads on your final page as it's only 20 threads per page so you have to count the difference.
My favorite song by the Carpenters.Well this is an old thread.

That is some good drumming for a 6th grader! Future Anika Nilles?I agree that Anika Nilles is a great drummer, and I wish her the best with Rush.![]()

Wow 1,120!Thanks very much for this, Lanolin!
I never even realized this option existed, as I was looking at the version on my phone and not my laptop, and this menu seems to only be available there.
It listed 56 pages of threads, so that's approximately 1,120.
I can't really take credit for that many though, as I've recycled many ideas over the year (it's always interesting to see what different crowds from different times have to say.)
But it was interesting to see a general number.
Thank you again!![]()
Wow 1,120!
You welcome
That's amazing.
It would take me maybe a decade or more to reach that number.
I haven't reached the 400 milestone yet, so that could be an achievable SMART goal for me. 27 more threads!!
I figured if I had made a thread before on the topic I just dig it up again as seems acceptable to do that here.
