Erm, wasn't Jaz AT the drum session, and I thought I saw Goerdie in
the drum sessions DVD footage but I'll admit i wasn't paying full
attention there?

But yes, I'd prefer it if the band all pilled into a studio for a
month and got as psyched into the whole process as Jaz obviously was.

I'd give the album 3 or 4 personally. But then I liked Extremities.
