Guns N' Roses Drummer Talks About 'Chinese Democracy'


I had to share this video(EQ magazine/tv) with you.It speaks of the drummers experience recording Chinese Democracy.He mentions how the original drummer had played all the tracks and now he was to play...lick for lick,the same songs,just with "his" feel.So he got Sony to transcribe all the drum tracks for all the songs,so he could play them exactly as the other drummer,and he had to record each song "all the way through",not just a section at a time.He said Sony sent him the transcribed drum music,which was a stack of sheets more than a foot high :-)!Needless to say...it took him 7 months to complete the recordings...a cool video.
