Duuude...
Too easy to compare with words...gotta post pics.

You want seperated at birth? Try Chad Smith and Will Ferrel! It's the photos that seal the deal however.

Dude, Pocket, my friends and I have been making the Smith/Ferrell comparison for years. That's hilarious. Wow this could be a fun thread...despite it's almost total absence of anything related to drumming.

Very vague resemblance? Maybe, maybe not? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Actually, I can't believe neither of you has said he looks like Mel Gibson from the Lethal Weapon series!

Fuse-You had what is know in medical circles as a Rectal Prolapse. Also, reference Tom Arnold in Austin Powers, "Hey Buddy, be careful, you might blow out you O-Ring."

Hey Peter!
Tom's good looks? You would be known as a chick magnet and your drum career would have taken a whole different direction, playing in pop idol bands like Europe and Cinderella...what would you have done with all that musical sensibility and sensitivity? I mean, Joe Porcaro said if you weren't a drummer you would have been a doctor with your mind.

Always great to hear from you!!! [img]graemlins/smarty.gif[/img]

Peter E:
Can you post some pics to elaborate?

P.S. Without starting another topic, I was listening to your solo on "Jose" from Steely Dan, circa '93.
Very hip.. very musical, and really held to the funky, James-Brown based theme. I could tell it was you from the crack of your mini-snare, and your signature tom fill (hard to describe, but I'd seen you do it on your videos.)

Actually, I preferred your jazz-infused interpretations of their tunes over the other occupants of the Steely drum throne, save Mr. Carlock, whom I havent heard yet.....

Also, Steve Smith, and Mr. Clean, even down to the earing....

Dave,

1. I don't seem to know how to post pictures ... I got the photos to display in my message "here" on my computer, but not again when I logged in ... any advice?

2. Thanks for the compliment, but that's Dennis on "Josie" on the Steely Dan "Live in America" CD ... the tracks with my drumming are "Green Earrings," "Third World Man" and "Book of Liars" ... thanks, anyway!

All the best,
PE

Ersko:
Not sure where youre trying to upload those pics too, but the properties of the link currently point to your machine (file:///Users/petererskine2/Desktop/JonathanPryce.jpg)
You need to upload them somewhere then link to that location. Do you have access to the server your site is on?

Oh, yeah ... that would be me from the '93 tour. Well, then; thanks for the compliment!

I have to run at the moment, but might try to post a couple of fun(ny)/interesting stories from that tour if any of you'd be interested ...

Steve; thanks for the advice ... I had a feeling that was what I'd have to do (duh). Will try it again after I get back home; flying from South Bend, Indiana this morning ... just judged the 46th Annual Notre Dame Collegiate Jazz festival and heard some great musicians over the past couple of days.

Best regards and GOOD MORNING! (5:30 am)

Peter:
Dont be so humble! I was referring to a bootleg that someone had posted on this site, from '93, the first Steely tour, before the Alive in America CD came out. I think it was you on drums, that first tour, wasnt it? It definitely wasnt Dennis' style....

Storys...ah, yeah, that would be like very nice. We love Ersko stuff of any kind!!!

I've been meaning to ask this, especially that you've been spending time with young drummers.
Do you have any "gut" feelings about young drummers trying to play professionally today?
* Trying to define their own voice
* Narrowing down a practice routine
* Patience/ endurance/ confidence issues
* On being more musical as a drummer

THANKS Peter, always great to hear from you!!!
