All you guys talkin about great drummers etc..

You never had a drummer go into the zone and close their eyes?

Mistakes happen, get over it.

A little protection never hurt anyone.

I could have Eric Clapton in my studio, doesn't mean I'm going to have amps around that don't have their grilles in place. Even the best of us have a bad day.

I don't think a pop filter, cable guard or shock mount implies anything about the person who's using the equipment, any more than a seatbelt implies you're not a safe driver.

When I visit someones studio, the presence of equipment that says "I care about my gear," is what makes me respect them more than what they own or why they own it. Every famous musician I've worked with, has little knick knacks that they use to protect their stuff...We should embrace that philosophy rather than chastise it.

Peace
Illumination
