    Had to have been hard coordinating schedules with all those other bands.  Maybe that was a big reason?

    Could be a hint of that Metallica thing of "if you're ion Metallica you are only in Metallica"

    Nah they knew the score with Freese. Add that to Dave doing Them Crooked Vultures, the Coattail Riders, the Dead Peasants etc etc,  and maybe a conflict over schedule would be the only thing but APC has been the only notable addition to his schedule and they'd have been ok with being flexible. Tool just finished up in Mexico and Danny is doing Beat.

    Shane replacing him seems most logical but he's nowhere near the calibre needed. Hell if you wanted a nepo baby at the kit Rufus Taylor would be the better choice.

    Style is a hard reason to fathom given how versatile Josh is.

    Ability obviously not-it's nothing close to William's situation as he's better than both Dave and Taylor.

    Personality clash is weird given Josh was friends with Taylor and is also a consummate professional.

    Sounds to me like another dumb decision old mate made without wearing a rubber.

    Maybe Dave A will be the new drummer. hahaha
    Dave A playing with a "big" band at a "big" venue again, would be cool to see honestly.

    I think I recall him adressing this on his facebook page some time ago. Not interested in “the machine”.

    This isn’t an original thought, I heard it floated on a podcast I listened to this weekend… whatever this drummer thing is about, I bet Freese is in on it… both the FF and Freese kept the announcement of his hiring 2 years ago under wraps right up until the live stream aired… they clearly had fun with it, so why wouldn’t they do the same here?

    I think this is all a bit… at least that’s what makes the most sense to me.

    It would be a ballsy move by Dave given the (completely predictable) amount of shit being flung at him and his band as a result. Which is to say I think it's entirely possible that it's a gag.

    Easy to say when the machine isn't available anyways.

    But he might be honest also. Seems like a pretty honest fellow.

    I found that top ten thing kind of cringey.

    It would be a smart move…. Drummer controversy > infidelity / child born out of wedlock controversy… people are going to talk about something now that they’re coming back, it’s kind of perfect. 
    Did you expect JF to be the permanent drummer for FF? I didn’t… the more I think about this, the more convinced I am that this is a bit.

    I'm thinking no chance this is a work.
