I'd hardly call the female in SteveO's clip a "girl"--at 14, she's probably had menarche. Amazing talent--YouTube's got many examples of prodigies but she has real talent, real control.
BTW, one of the sidebars had "Battle of the world's best female drummers". I was long ago disabused of the notion that drummers aren't musicians, merely timekeepers...or that women should be confined to singing or "polite" instruments--how about you?
This Thread overall is wonderful--that which I didn't like, I at least learned from. A kudos to everyone contributing.
BTW, when SteveO mentioned the Killers, I thought he'd added an "s" to this guy's nickname: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AO7QRpvp9FU << age 50 here and still generating the excitement of years before. Wonder if these other folks will be able to do that then? With the same huge back catalog? Just bein' a little snotty here...
