This is an odd one. I just watched a bit of the old grey whistle test and just between the break of Double Trouble and I ain't the one AP is sort of repositioning his sticks and licking one of them.
Anybody has an idea what's that supposed to be? Grip cannot be the reason that would have the opposite effect. I watched a lot of drummers but that's the first time I have seen something like this.

That is an odd one but I would assume needing to help grip while he is in a pinch. I’ve done it with golf clubs tho I’m sure it’s not the most hygienic way to improve the situation.
edit to add that I know Artimus has stated that he took LSD in the early days so he may hive hit the stick with a dropper prior to the show. Unlikely but I love his story about the monkey on roller skates, I’d still be curled up laughing had that happened during my trip daze.

Well, that sounds logical. I have more problems now with the club and the bat 😁. If I find some more clues, I'll let you know.

I said odd because I’ve read Cagey and others say that Artimus was really attentive about tape and gloves to improve his grip. Maybe this is just more of that? Hell, the man may just like the taste of drumsticks, what do I know?

Hell, the man may just like the taste of drumsticks, what do I know? Hrm, so the waitress glanced at me, while I was bursting out laughing. Sure, the taste 🤣. This made my day... There were no tape or gloves to be seen.
