Truth be told, I didn’t pay a lot of attention to Bonham outside of noticing his kit being setup like Alex would have. I suppose it’s good that he didn’t do anything to draw my attention away from the show, but I suppose vanilla enough that he didn’t draw my attention to him. I was so focused on listening to Sammy/Michael/Satch that I just really didn’t pay much mind to the drums, which is kind of surprising for me.
Alex is such a uniquely great drummer, underrated. That ability to swing at those tempos with complex patterns and maintain precision...it's nuts. IMO if a drummer "doesn't stand out" for this, it's a big credit to the drummer. (I know you don't mean that as a dig at all of course). Just a former drummer's perspective!
