Faustine Hudson: Drummer Girl's Got It

I'm absolutely outraged that women are getting so uppiddy nowadays.

I agree with Faustine... knowing when to hit a gong is like knowing when to oppress gay people or kill a terrorist, I just kinda get this feeling and then I do it. I know I'm not crazy, and that it's what Jesus wants.

You kids are ruining this country.

"One night I saw an unruly crash cymbal in her way so from her throne she picked it up and fired it off stage left like an RPG. Then she counted off the next song and finished an amazing set with just a ride and high hats."

Faustine in the news! rock-on!

I remember about 4 years ago I trained this punked out ass-kickin' drummer chick at a shitty corporate day-job. She regalled us with tales of quantities of whiskey that made my liver cry.

She later escaped in time to save her soul with rock & roll.

Good peeps doin' good stuff. This makes me happy.

PS. I too am intimidated, but not by utilikilts.

She's clueless. At one point, she admits to taping a show in San Fran without permisssion. This is not acceptable etiquette for a musician. Secondly, she claims to shuffle better than anyone else in San Francisco (ridiculous claim) then says later that by no means does she think she is better than anyone else. I find many musicians in Seattle to be self-professed geniuses, but they live in Seattle because they can't make in a real music town (sorry, Seattle is not even close to a genuine music town). I personally know two great blues drummers fron San Francisco who tour nationally with the likes of Robert Cray and Greg Allman. They laughed whhen I showed them this article. They are very secure in their craft and didn't feel the need to say anything else.

Please wait...
