I'm just saying though Funky... Those fanboys want to have a go at the Tony Royster Jr vs TP video but now that there's another vid they'll actually say that the drummers involved DO have different styles etc?

That's foolishness right there.

Hey, I just got it off of the DW roster page:

ANTHONY P. ROYSTER, JR. | INDEPENDENT
Drums, Pedals and Hardware

It's no biggie, though.  You know, I always wonder why there isn't an official video for stuff like this.  It would be really cool to see and hear it in greater detail.  Check your bag post, man!

People who actually understand what JoJo is doing, may feel him more. I mean, you respect that it took hours upon hours of practice to perfect what you see on this video and his DVD. You respect him for the fact that a lot of the techniques that he's mastered, you've given up on, for the time being/permanently, because of a lack of patience.

Shed-heads, non-drummers(for the most part, I think), & non-musicians would probably feel Tony more.

Tony brought a great deal more energy and showmanship, and JoJo is clearly the most skilled of the two. In my opinion, anyway...

I want to see JoJo and Chris Dave do something together.  I think I would faint with Div putting white sheets on me and Sabianknight giving me water. LOL

I appreciate Chris Dave's approach, but I'm not deluded enough to think he's achieve JoJo's level of technical mastery...

Well, I didn't mean anything technical.  I meant musically.

I know...

I guess I would prefer to see someone as musical AND as technical proficient as Jo Jo work with him. I don't want the gap in their technical ability to take away from the music...

...'cause as a seasoned musician, you will definitely notice those things, even if you don't want to.

What is the mic to be used for? A recording? Is it something you'd be using on a regular basis? What's genre of music? Size of the room?

Regular basis, medium sized church, acoustic strings will be acompanying the Grand Piano (Violin)

Cardioid ...

Go to your nearest and tell them you're looking for a cardioid mic. That's a TYPE of mic, but I don't know your budget's, so I can suggest a specific brand.

True.  I defininitely was feeling Jojo's technique more, all the lil stuff he was doin.  Sometimes though, I forget how young TOny really is.  A lot of the times I find myself forgettin that a lot of the people tat I compare him to are a lot older than him.
