"And Jacco on the left on the stage? Come on! It was a pain!"
Now THAT really brought me a big laughter now, thank you!
)
I dont really know whats the big problem about it, but since I dont have that much of a problem with drummer behind in the middle, let it be this way.
Concerning the cueing and lacking tightness: what I saw was very powerful and I believe also quite groovy, but I admit that I cant compare Jacco to Geb, in terms of playing live, since I've never seen Geb behind a drumset in a concert. (I did see him playing the banjo, though)
But c'mon people, he wasnt that bad, was he? I mean, the shows I've seen last year very really great.

It´s no matters if the drummer´s on the left, right or center as long as he plays good! 
It´s more a matter what the drummer contributes to the band. As posted before BH / BC has cool drums although Bent isn´t a better drummer than Jacco surely. But it´s got soul, it´s got energy, it´s got groove, it´s got something special. That´s what was lacking for me in Jacco´s playing. He wasn´t bad but nothing really special also. And a drummer in Motorpsycho has to have that!

do you really think that a funky vibe would have been appropriate for a band like the who? i'm not so sure it would, really. it's fair enough if he's not your style, but i think keith moon set down a blueprint for power and momentum and general fist-raising rock that few have rivalled since.
but yeah, if it's not your thing it's not your thing, i guess.

Exactly! We all can't agree on everything
