HA HA !!! I once had a guitar player tell me that he was progressing so well as a guitarist that he was really "coming into his own". He then proceeded to tell me to play more like another drummer that had a great rep for the style we were playing.if you find that your ever being disrespected because you are a drummer, than tell the person in question to f*** off and leave with your dignity!
nobody (well me) can play well when their being brought down!..just convince yourself that your better than the band in question......and tell your self that you WILL get another job
I said: "Let me get this straight, YOU are playing so much like yourself and not copying anyone that you're coming into your own, but you want ME to emulate someone else's style of playing??" He was SERIOUS too, wasn't kidding!!
I actually had to LAUGH at that one, after the ANGER wore off.
