   Record contracts do not show a drummer's talent. Get real. Only a fool
will believe that, and if you do, you are a fool. I never said the Smithereens
were God like. Neil is a bum. The only reason that people think Neil is so
great is because they can't grasp the technical density of Vinnie or Dave or
Jeff. Most of you don't rate drummers on the drummer, you rate it on the band.
If Vinnie played with Rush, you would all want to lick his boots.
