We honestly owe this dude so much. He has devoted his life to what we now call pop punk music. So glad he is still out doing it
For anyone who doesn't already know and is curious, this man is a _fantastic_ recording engineer who has made many incredible records at his studio that he mentioned, "The Blasting Room." The amount of incredible, generational, inspirational records this guy has been a part of making in one way or another is impressive to say the least.
So happy to see Bill playing after all he's been through in the last 15 years!

Glad you enjoyed it! Honored to get a rundown with such a punk hero!
wow man Bill is just a treat of a human being, maybe one of the most relatable drummers ive seen on this show
Refreshingly original, unconventional and inspiring. This guy approaches drumming and music as an absolute artist with a concept ❤
About 15 years ago. I went to an ALL show in Columbus, Ohio. Hung out with the whole band for a couple hours after the show and they were some of the coolest and nicest people I've ever met. We owe Bill and company so much for the music they gave the world.
I love how he has his kit set up. Bill Stevenson the master.
Bill’s the Man.
Bill is a gift to mankind.
I love Bill.
What a cool, down to earth and subtly hilarious guy! This was great!

Glad you dug it!
"I like playing more curvy" Gonna be using this line from now on haha. I agree, some drummers tend to stick just to timekeeping and forgetting that the drums are an instrument in themselves as well. Bill is a consummate professional, great video.

I was just at the blasting room a couple months ago and got to mess around with that Bell brass he’s talking about it absolutely weighs at least 40 pounds and sounds amazing

Bell Brass snares are super rad! Super heavy, and super rad! LOL
11:45 There’s a bottle of automotive Lucas Slick Mist Fast and Easy Speed Wax. Do Bill and other drummers use this to clean/shine their kits? PS - Descendents and Bill are amazing

I have no idea what that was being used for! I can certainly follow up with the techs and confirm!
I really enjoyed this, BUT! I was totally disappointed there was no talk about Bills ride cymbals, that's such a huge part of his sound ans he's been so consistent with threw since the beginning. Maybe next time 🤷♂️
I want to know if the man rhino is sitting in the back by bill
Someone get this man a fucking cymbal deal so he didn't have to borrow stuff! Zildjian I'm looking at you
Father and son? :)

Promark rebranding 3 times over the last decade, changing model names, and discontinuing a bunch of stick models is ruining their brand image.
