Heeeey... wait a minute. If none of us knows anything about it, how do we know he's not lying to us, to protect the great Syncopation Secret Conspiracy of the Secret Syncopation Secret Society?
Just kidding, good job Flint.

Hey Flint, just a question...
What do you think of Carl Palmer?

Something else I don't know... how do those foaming hand soap dispensers aerate the liquid soap?

He's strong, a beast. Monsterous single-stroke chops, always pushing the beat.
I have a b00tleg DVD of the "Carl Palmer" band, which is an instrumental trio of Palmer and two young, unknown guys with crazy chops. They play in high gear the whole time. Palmer is one of these guys that appearantly doesn't age like regular humans. Palmer has a whole kit made of Paiste cymbal alloy! Can you imagine how much those bass drums weigh?

My mom worships Palmer, and in fact claims that he's better than peart.
I aaaalmost agree with her, there, but... peart's better by a small but definite margin.

Stuff I don't know:
Why am I sometimes overcome with a overwhelming sense of tiredness in the mid afternoon? It's like I've been drugged. I can't keep my eyes open. This happens once or twice a week, around 1 or 2 or so. It lasts for about 15-20 minutes. The heavy energy sapping tiredness is so powerful, I almost fall asleep at my desk sometimes. I have been startled awake before. It's frightening.

One of the things that really impresses me about Carl Palmer is that he does all that with a marching-type grip for his left stick, as opposed to a matched grip. You can see it in both Flint's pic and Ibram's clip.
