    Rick Allen looks so happy playing the drums. Imagine going through losing an arm and having to re-earn to play the drums using only three limbs. This man is a legend.

      Rick Allen is one of four reasons I play drums. Rick Allen (introduced me to bad ass rock music), Lars Ulrich (as a ten year old kid listening to One for the first time, I wondered if a better song was ever written), Dave Grohl (Teen Spirit was my first song learnt on the drums. He showed me how to use the hi hat accent) and Dave Lombardo (he pushed me to be better and it worked) in that order.

      @williambroadstreet3353 Před 3 lety +6

      Criminally there is NOT a lot of video, especially interviews. There is a lot more of Elliot and the other band members. You have to remember "The Riffmaster" was an extremely shy, reserved bloke. His Father's abuse left Steve with deep demons, all he ever wanted to do sadly was please his Dad, who was a POS. The one person who arguably is responsible for taking 'the' most pictures of Steve, photo shoots and live was the great Ross Halfin. Halfin picked Steve very very early as someone seriously special, a killer classically trained guitarist but who was the bands genius as Steve penned and created the music at 90%. Halfin has thousands of pics. That Ross got these shows that Steve really trusted Halfin. The video that does exist is from their early Lyon and Germany gigs, US first tour with Pete Willis, their second tour with 'Pyro', and the third tour for 'Hysteria', 'in the round in your face'. Sadly 'Download' was only taped but from about a mile off, it is impossible to see Steve up close, but it does exist, someone uploaded it, but the European gigs are not posted, there's a Japanese TV song but to backing tracks I think it is from Koln Germany, bits of bobs and ends, Then you have San Remo which was Steve's last performance with the band and it was a overdub song, not live. If you dig and dig you'll find an enormous treasure trove of Steve. There was a website called "In Loving Memory of Steve Clark" which no longer exists, it had EVERYTHING you ever wanted on Steve, his rig from 78 to when he passed.

The day b4, I had spilled some antifreeze in the center of the floor, where the drum kit sits, so I had to spread some granular oil dry, which you can also see if you look even closer @ 0:18.... 😉

But the strongest memory is the Steve Clark solo, with his double guitar, runnin' like mad all along the stage, givin' incredible sounds and riffs. The crowd was totally in osmosis with him!
