Sorry for posting a clip here but in case anyone else had a comment about this.

At 1:25 in this clip he plays these old time Stewart fills....it just gave me chills ! I actually paused the vid so I'm sure there's more. I love his attack, that flam he does on the snare...oh man. The best.

That is why ya get behind a Fuckin Chariot !

Way to lay the smackdown Stewart.

I got about 10 seconds in and had to laugh already. Stewart tosses a stick out and you hear "WOOOOO"... trademark Copeland fan reaction;)

yea, those fills hit me because that is the kind of stuff that made me notice his drumming way back in the 80's.

I guess it triggered some Drummer/Pavlov dog kinda reaction....wait a minute, my leg is doing a scratching motion ?

heh,heh.

Cheers.

Yep, this clip is quintessential Copeland. It encapsulates so much of Stewart’s trademark drumming techniques in its brief 5.5 minutes.

Definitely a Pavlov’s dog reaction for me too…now I have this urge to drag my ass around the carpet of my office, lift my leg and have a paradidle.
