Gaz has. Not since 'Jesus wept' has such a short sentence contrived to procure so little meaning, purpose or point-but it remains as true as 'Pete's feet', 'Wiffa's sniffer' and 'Will's will'; Gazza is no ordinary drummer.
He is tight fluid and genuinely funky. Rock hard and rock soft - an executioner of a drummer.
In our interview he hummed, maybe they were hymns or maybe they were metal death gore anthems but you can bet your life (he would undoubtedly wager his) that this drummer of awesome calf muscles was completely at ease with himself despite the rigours and the challenges life in its torn up, malevolent way has thrown at him.
Totally solid yet inventive, driving the band on like a demented wagonmaster pioneering a trail through sheer, cliff faced canyons and snake infested gulches and the Indians and the deserts, through the tumbleweeds of deserted ghost towns and the distractions of the wild frontier with the honkin tonkin saloons and their brightly painted whores and the intoxicating mixture of beer and cards and more beer and beer and more beer; Gaz is unstoppable, inexorable except when his back plays up a bit. This is at all times thunderous, rhythmic, addictive drumming at its very best.
