i'm not saying i don't like butch, i just don't like the way it makes me feel when i hear the piano in dave's songs.

They've had a piano since the beginning of the band...

Well put.

If anything Butch compliments DMB's music and doesn't over power with crazy lines ala Peter Griesar (who still is an amazing keyman, some of his stuff with the band for me was just too much.)

This is true but Peter Griesar's sound was more of an organ(early jimi thing) and Butch is that heavy piano sound. I do like his addition's to warehouse.

You know in the older shit when Peter would do all that salsa-type jamming, I never dug that. It's cool thought to listen to those time capsule tracks though.

I thought they toured from like 1993 until 1999 without a piano?

Is he the chapman stick fella'?

If anyone has seen the Van Ryper's footage, I can't remember the track exactly, it might be Pay for What You Get, but there's a keyman there I don't recognize. Who is this?

its not Greisar?

ericwormann · Unread post by **ericwormann** » Tue Jun 14, 2005 2:04 pm
