    When I was young, I'd watch guys on 'The Tonight Show', Buddy Hackett, guys like that, where all they'd be is funny.

    If drummers are 'anti-solo,' that's up to them. They're musicians, and they can play whatever they want. But my inspirations early on were people like Buddy Rich, seeing him on 'The Tonight Show', or Gene Krupa.

    They're rebuilding, and I know how that feels. It's not an easy situation that he (NSU coach Chip Durham) is in, and we're hoping and pulling for him. Tonight, Buddy just didn't give them any life.
