I think the primary difference with Chad Smith is not only his massive experience of doing studio drumming work with so many different people that aids with the musicianship of improv, it's also that I honestly believe he's not afraid at all to sound 'bad'. He FULL SENDS it every time, with that ultimate zero f--ks given mentality, which in turn usually translates into he kills it. There is no half-assing or tipsy-toeing around it. He's gonna bring it, play it with energy, and it's glorious. Never change, Chad. That energy and philosophy is contagious!

Chad's interpretation was great, and it really shows the power of finding an idea and committing to it. Even if it didn't exactly line up with the emotional beats of the song at times, the fact that he never panicked and was able to smoothly transition from one feel to the next completely covers it up. At the same time, what a groove from Matt Nicholls! The hitch in the bass - bass - snare pattern is so effective underneath the rest of the band, and watching Chad try and fail to lock in with it right away (5:59) just shows how much more difficult it is to lay down than it might seem just by listening.

Pretty standard mic set from what I see, 57 on snare, 451 on hat, U87 outside the kick. The Earthworks DM20s on the toms were pretty cool. Also like the 414 placed next to the shell of the snare, don't recall seeing that before. That said, it's not really the mics. What you're primarily hearing is a good kit, tuned properly, in a great sounding room, mixed well, and played by a pro. All other things being equal, you could probably get just as good of a sound with 2 overheads, a kick and a snare top mic.
