The Rigs of Dad Prodcast ep 35: Jean-Paul Gaster (Clutch)

If you're a drummer, you will love this talk... If you're not a drummer, you will love this talk.  Jean-Paul Gaster is a true madman behind the kit, and his resume speaks for itself. Jean-Paul is one of (if not the) greatest drummers of our time, and his band Clutch is creeping up on 30 years of unapologetic, pure rock fury.  I had a blast talking with Jean-Paul about his early days behind the kit, his constant thirst for a deeper knowledge of the instrument, how drums have changed the course of world history, and much much more.  Lots covered over a couple beers with this dude, and I am thrilled to share it with you. Be sure to check out clutchmerch.com for tickets to their last stream of the year, which takes place this coming Friday! If you want to hear more fun stuff, the extended version of this conversation is available to patrons on all tiers, and includes over an hour of extra laughs and more.
