4.0 out of 5 stars Inspiration, November 24, 2005

As many of us have read the review in MD about Rodney's performance...his performance is great. The real gem on this DVD is NERVE...yes the band with JO-JO Mayer...this is where the rubber meets the road or technique meets musicality...this segment alone is worth the price to any drummer who wishes to up their game on the kit. All I can say is WOW...not for the technique alone, but for the musicianship Jo-Jo demonstrates...this is a must have...I am now a huge fan of the band NERVE...and so will you after viewing.

I'm a drummer, but I think even non-drummers will enjoy this DVD set. Excellent, inspiring playing. Truly entertaining. MD evidently gave a lot of lattitude to the performing drummers because they each had unique segments; some alone, soloing for 10's of minutes, others with their full bands, etc. Really kept it entertaining.
