He kinda noodles around a lot and has bursts of fills interlaced with heavy backbeats until right before the band comes back in, then he usually drums some sort of sick beat that makes my head explode because it's smooth yet heavy. If you have any of the boots, might I recommend the one from LA 1 because that is the one that sounds closest to the intro to Jesus Christ Pose. And it's my personal favorite from the three shows I saw.

I agree with the LA 1 statement. He hinted at it in San Diego, and LA2, but LA night one was the night that I turned around to my friend and said "HOLY SHIT he's playing Jesus Christ Pose!", and subsecuently not shut the fuck up about it for most the night...
What has bothered me with these solos though, and his drumming this tour, it has shown one thing.... dude still has his chops, so where is WMA, Who you Are, and though I don't mind the tweaked verson, In My Tree?

i got a taste of this on the San Diego boot and thought it was awesome...gives longtime fans who might be bored with Even Flow something to look forward to when the song starts

About time they let him cut loose. You could sense it all throughout Leg 1 that once the jam died down and Mike stopped soloing that he'd go nuts, but it never happened. That's awesome that he's rippin' now.

I have one of the South America '05 boots and after Mike's solo Matt starts doing this samba beat which is really cool.
I love the drum solos, especially the Jesus Christ Pose beats. I wonder if he's going to keep doing JCP or if he's going to change it up later on in the tour?

yeh no doubt he'l change bits to keep it fresh.. should be interesting to compare even flows from europe and Aus to the ones just now.

I didn't know he was doing that. I hope that remains for Australia!
