I was amazed at how simple it was. It's pretty deceiving because it sounds like he's doing a lot more with it than RRLRRLRL. His style is really unique and I love some of the Native American patterns he plays as well. People who have met Stanton have said he's a nice guy...but a bit cocky. Any thoughts?

I've not yet met him face to face, but we've chatted via e-mail. He didn't strike me as cocky at all - very friendly and helpful.

I have one of his DVD's. Can't remember the title right now but it is a great learning tool. Stanton's style is just so funky! I love it! He does this pattern RRLRRLR where he plays a beat with it moving across the kit and it sounds amazing.....and I stole it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIxxB4c_T-k&feature=related here's the link to check it out! Great stuff!

Yeah, I've been trying that pattern a lot lately to see where I can fit it in. Pretty versatile lick and I love all the things he does with it.

Stanton has chops coming out of his ears. The guy is a monster. His CD "III" is in my car player right now. Extra funky stuff. Check it out.
