Verizon has them for the push to talk feature. We use them where I work instead of regular old radios, because the building we're in makes radios not work real well, and using a cellular network is more reliable. You also have the option to talk to one person privately or set up groups to address multiple people. They're cheap and you can get multiple numbers on one line and get business discounts. They're cell phones too but pretty rudimentary.

One of my favourite vids on YT is Nick Menza’s version of this for Soultone Cymbals. It is just perfect so I have some bias so to the comparison apart from a few loose rims at the start to which my drum teacher used to chant you always have to hit the centre of the drum head like a Whiplash Michael Caine. Nick plays a slight variation on the bass drum at times but very commendable and shoots right into number 3 on my list of favourite Megadeth drummers. Obviously that excludes Vinnie C as he is next level and then more levels not unlike Anton Fig when he played briefly with Kiss. Another next level drummer. I am really just talking about official Megadeth members.
@ParrDrummer6 жыл бұрын
Sure he doesn't have Nick's style, but nobody does. I think he might be perfect for future megadeth however, because the direction megadeth has been going is faster and heavier. If you don't think Dirk is going to put some serious spice in whatever new material comes out, you're wrong. The subtle polyrythm stuff in soilwork is nuts. Give him a chance before you put him down.

In terms of soilwork - Dirk is definitely one of the tastiest in the genre. I'd even go as far as one of the best in the business in his class - topped by only a few such as Chris Adler. Long story short, my prediction is mustaine will suck the life out of Dirk's drumming just like he did with Adler on Dystopia. Sometimes when you get these tech/melodic death metal master drummers it's kinda interesting how they feel a bit 'flat' and almost 'lost' when it comes to the 4/4 stuff - like their brains are wired in polyrhythmic phrasing and that's their swing and with that removed, it feels stiff. His feel in soilwork is incredible and here he is almost just average. And like I said, for Mustaine to choke Adler's skill like he did, I can't see Dirk having any better luck. He's 100% in that seat for the paycheck. Which is cool, dude's given a lot to his genre (which is notoriously tight on funds) and deserves some dough.

Also check him out on Some Kind of Monster when he and James are writing, he's tryin to play some off-beat rhythm, but doesn't know how to play anything off beat. Please understand that Lars is on OK drummer, but once again, nothing compared to DVanB. Sorry if the truth hurts, just stating the obvious. I like Metallica, I just bought my tickets to go see them at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium in June. More importantly, I'll be there to see Gojira, Volbeat and A7X. Oh, you wanna know another drummer who'll smoke the old grey hairs off your boy Lars, check out Mario DuPlantier. lol.

Idiots? Dirk is a rad drummer, very technically gifted - although that is not the issue here. Fair enough if he played this without a warm up, but to me it sounds soulless and mundane. None of the drummers they've had could match the jazzy vibes Gar brought or the powerhouse feel of Menza. Off-topic, but I've got to be honest - I still think Marco Minneman is at a higher level of playing than Dirk (especially from a emotional/feeling perspective).
