Pretty good drummer though.

I never played drums per se but I always wondered why that style of  
stick handling was not considered the best way in the first place and  
why the left hand position of the stick was different from the right  
hand in the "Classic" style. It really made no sense to me logically.  
It just made it harder for me when I studied percussion in  
university. It seemed so unnatural and awkward. Every other  
percussion instrument uses the hands equally.
