I knew a guitarist with the same name..could be the same guy he was one of those musical prodegy types, if it is him i'll bang the hammer and pass the motion!
The best drummer in New Zealand is Paul Russell. He was drummer for Supergroove and was in Che Fu's backing band for a while. He now plays drums in "Eight".
i'm not sure he was in on the Traction era songs ? didn't Supergroove go thru three drummers ... when i saw Eight i thought his talents were kinda wasted actually. he has a great range of styles and seems damned precise without being at all soul-less in his precision.
That che - fu / eight/ anika mao(lol mao) /old supergroove guy is my personall favourite.
o0o0o o0o and ol' redford from Shapeshifter - he's real flash.
totally agree on chris. also phil more (drumphil) whos now in greece driving tour buses. and ricki gooch - accelerants. and brendan moran of hasselhoff infamy...
//Also Darren Mathiassen from Trinity Roots
oml yes................. saw him one night at the phat club..................... he just went mental........
and the absolute bonus was tama from mother guru in support on a hand drum...........
nahhhhhh hes a shadow of Hideebeast...
you listen to head like a hole's earlier stuff and you can notice the difference hidee just makes himself heard, he's got class to burn
but michael franklin browne is nothign to hidee
Yes and no ... he is certainly involved with "Frank Gibson's Drum City" ... it was his dad's shop originally. But I don't think he runs it as such. He does give lessons there though. He also teaches Jazz history at Auckland Uni. And plays a fair bit around town ... mainly jazz ... but also a lot of session work ...
He also contibutes a column to the NZ Musician Magazine.
If you ever get the chance to see him perform do so ... I guarantee you will be inspired.

Hmm... don't know many drummers names.
The dude from HDU is great. The dude from the Accelerants is great. The dude playing with The Chills was a fucken riot.
And as for technical drumming... Chris from Acid Jack (And formerly in Selling Hope/Wishbone) is very good.
... and George... and Scott... :)
