What other clip could you watch Alex Van Halen piss-pound a floor kit while sitting in a separate room?

Question: Did Alex play to a click ever or was he that phenomenal at controlling the meter?

I thought Sammy's whole complaint was that when Eddie and Alex did overdubs for the "Live" record, their timing was off, which made Sammy have to go back in and redo his vocals, which is what this clip is showing.

And I don't say that to shade Alex, he's a phenomenal drummer. Him not playing anymore is a true shame.

He's playing to a click here.

For songs where they pipe in Eddie's keys, Al plays to a click.

Trying to play to the keyboard track solo with no click, and then have the band follow you, while you follow the keys would be suicide.

Unless your Neil Peart, and can actually play.

When they were recording Dreams and Won’t Get Fooled Again for their fake live album. Neither were played on that tour.

lol. Seeing Eddie take that last swig of a beer brought my memories of always having a drink nearby and always taking that last sip before I had to do something.

And always loved this video.
