You KNOW that Bubba's on here...

[Mufasa]

Vince - I understand your views, and I shared a bit of them when I was in my twenties (you know - last year?) but I read an article years ago in Modern Drummer magazine concerning Bubba. He had won so many Drummer of the Year awards by the fans and readers, that he was barred from being able to receive the nomination again.

In one article, he expressed his dislike for "all the attention and hoopla" and such, offered in his direction.
This sat very badly with quite a few fans, one of which wrote a scathing response that consisted of the line: Poor "Bubba", etc.
And another young lady that was truly hurt by Bubbas interview comments. She wrote, "It Makes the heart heavy to hear such things from someone so greatly admired by so many", or something to that extent.
It's not that we are not appreciated as fans, I believe that it's just tough to live a "normal" life when your abilities and accomplishments are admired by so many. I cannot imagine. It's akin to explaining to a first grader what a light year is.
Meh - But the fellas... we still like them though... even if we annoy them at times
