How is Louie's drumming?

[Slag666]

How is Louie doing behind the kit? And what songs are Tempesta drumming on?

 

[beepbeep]

He's doing okay, but isn't as good as Tempesta, that's for sure. The first part of their set is with Tempesta, then, the last 6 songs are Louie. You can see at the playlist where the line is between Low and Practice, that's where they change places. You can see the playlist at the thread 'anyone going to the London show'
'ps I'd place the playlist here, but don't know how to upload it, sorry)

louie screwed up once at the london gig missing a time change (ooops!).

he was just ok though. considering he'd not played in 13 years!!
though testament definitely deserve a drummer like tempesta......

He hits his snare WAY too hard... that's the only thing that jumped out at me.

BOING BOING BOING BOING BOING BOING BOING BOING BOING BOING BOING BOING!

 

[Schlimpitz]

he did pretty well if you ask me
for somebody who hadn't played for years

TEMPESTA RULES. I ALWAYS THOUGHT LOUIE WAS THE WEAKEST LINK IN TESTAMENT. IF HIS DRUMMING SKILLS HAVE GOTTEN BETTER,GOOD FOR HIM.

i alwas like the way Louie hits the snare...no offense to Disciple dude

 

[ThouShaltNotSteal]

Louie was the weakest part of Testament's sound. Don't know if he's gotten any better, doubt it, but on the albums he "played" on, its atrocious for thrash standards

Louie did very good- especially for someone that hadn't played in 13 years and had only 2 weeks to practice. Really, really good. He would have been a kick-ass drummer now, if he hadn't stopped playing back in 1992.

Although Louie isn't the most technical drummer, he definitely has/had a very cool style. He had good snare/bass placement. Again, not terribly technical but not straight-ahead AC/DC-style either.

He must of been playing for a few years, there's no way he could of played otherwise.

That's what he told me and I've no reason to not believe him. He hadn't even owned a drum set when Chuck called him to ask to perform with them. Maybe he played a few times during all those years, but definitely not regularly.

 

[Tormunkelus]

just listen to practice what you preach for some real original drumming

Louie's drumming sucked back in the day, he was the weak link. I really like Johnny T, he SHREDS!!!
