@mrmikeedison Reading Sympathy/Drummer now and thoroughly loving your honesty, integrity, brutal as both may be, your knowledge and enthusiasm. Put it down for a second to write this Tweet. Recommending it to both my fellow drummers and readers at the library I work for! Thanks

D'you see this? The NFL commissioner suddenly got religion now that he realizes The Money might be affected. Also, he failed to explicitly apologize to Colin Kaepernick, so you KNOW it's all theater

@BigHairPlasGras @mrmikeedison Dan, I loved every word of this piece by @mrmikeedison! It really got to the core of who Charlie Watts was and yes, "why he matters." I also laughed out loud so often while reading it that my wife asked me why, but I didn't want to ruin it for her!
“Charlie Watts playing the drums is the sound of happiness, the aural equivalent of Snoopy doing his dance of joy. It came from his heart, not from his hands. And no drum solos! Not because he wasn’t good enough to play them, but because he was good enough not to have to.”
You want the truth? This is the truth. Excerpt from SYMAPTHY FOR THE DRUMMER- WHY CHARLIE WATTS MATTERS #charliewatts #rollingstones #keithrichards bit.ly/389IGCi
@mrmikeedison Hey Mike. That was beautifully written and by far the best of the half dozen or so pieces I’ve read on this. The eyeliner made me laugh out loud. You enlightened me. After 35 years writing the news every day I’m sure I was never beautiful. But I know it when I read it. Thanks
