Yes but I think that's Mick you're hearing. The martialesque, vibrating snare can be heard on dozens of Second Hand Newses from several tours -- Chris didn't play her drum every time, & here she isn't playing with enough visual precision to follow Mick exactly.

I don't think she's adding anything to the sound other than a whomp here & a poooosh there -- akin to Stevie clickety-clacking on the triangle & the cowbell. (Although they've probably at least mic'd Christine whereas with Stevie the sound guy probably drops the mic when she holds that cowbell right up to it & clickety-clicker-clackers it -- as if thousands of paying customers wanted to hear THAT.)
