Aimusic,To live in England, in London and not know Led Zep is SACRILEGE!! I bet all the guys in A Perfect Circle are down with them. BTW, Perfect Circle is/was great. At least, tell me you are a fan of "Top Gear" on the BBC or all my preconceptions of the British wiil be destroyed. Dave, True enough. However, I bet John could have played in The Beatles better than Ringo could have played in Led Zeppelin. (useless thoughts brought to you by Wodinlord)You know, I bet that if you added up all the striking force imparted to the drums by Ringo over his entire career, it wouldn't equal 1 John Bonham drum solo. Means nothing, just a thought.Oh yeah -Beatles - Most influential Music Group ever.Led Zeppelin - Most influential Rock Band everTop Gear - Best Automotive show on TV ever. I wish when I spoke, I sounded like Jeremy.

Ringo in Led Zeppelin!Now that really does conjure up images.I agree, Led Zeppelin are a fantastic band. I remember getting their first album. I haven't seen any of their reunion concert yet, other than news reports, but look forward to it.It'll be interesting to see how Bonham's son did.

I was able to find a bootleg DVD of the reunion show and it was awesome. They did a very respectable job and all sounded great. They aren't kids anymore, but they can still "Bring it on Home". It was video'ed and hopefully a commercial DVD will be released eventually. Jason did really good and was the only drummer that could have filled in for John.

I love how these threads can be headed for 1st street and somehow end up at 107th. Thats what makes it interesting. Wodinlord

you ever mess with drum kit from hell, right now I am just using battery, and its good for looped music work, and I have orchestral production for my scoring, so its kind of a passive need, but I used to have drum kit from hell, and it was pretty damn spiffy, you could even set the mic bleeds and stuff, just wondering how it compared, cause I am probably going to invest in a good drum plug in the near future

I wish when I spoke, I sounded like Jeremy.Hey Wodinlord,HAHAHAHA but the whole trick of the situation is, I'm originally from South Africa - Johannesburg - moved to the UK over a year ago... so I'm an acception to the rule...yeeehaaaawwww!!!! And in any way, South Africa is majorly Americanised... we listen to American music, watch American shows (which 9/10 are WAAAAY better than British shows - talking about sitcoms that is)A Perfect Circle where amazing, I really wish they stuck together - but Maynard's got his own side project now - he did a country song - I kid you not...I Like TopGear - I think Jeremy is pretty cool, but then again I don't watch it nearly enough to make a full judgement on his character.... but OH MY GOD THOSE CARS ARE AMAZING!!! My girlfriends dad ordered himself the new Audi R8, it will only be delivered to SA in 2009, oh how I wish I could give that bad boy a test run.....But on a serious note - my opinion is, when a band reaches a specific sound, taking out even just 1 on those players, will change the overall sound of the band... Ringo did his job, and he did it well, he may not be as technical as Bonham was, but he got the job done... it's like some people run the marathon, other people walk it - but atleast they finish it in the end. Like Imagine if Flea left the Peppers - that bands sound would COMPLETELY change - sure many other bassists could play what he plays - but future sounds would be different.p.s. Danny Carey would whip all them asses combines ... just my opinion...hahahahaha!!!
