I always hated the self drumming during the 1987 and 1990 tours. I think he also did it during the Dance tour too. The classic drum solo I can take (at least the first 2 minutes)
I know.

I didn't mind the old school(Mirage video) drum solos. But Vesturbation was just f*cking STUPID. And annoying. Total ego stroking for himself. Did I mention it was stupid and annoying?

OMG!!! Vesturbation!! Haha! Post of the year for me!

Annoying, stupid, disturbing and totally unnecesary. The drum solo was fine. Vesturbation was NOT fine.

Totally just Mick trying to pretend that he's a front man. Sad and stupid.

I didn't coin Vesturbation. We used to call it that here, a long time ago. god, I've been here for 17 years(lurking longer than that). not

A dumb device to use the way he did in concert. I’m sure the manufacturers didn’t intend it to be bundled up next to someone’s boobs and then smacked on for ten minutes until everyone’s ears were bleeding.

Remember how Mick not only fondled himself in concert but also hocked the product in an ad in the tourbook? I mean, talk about transparent sponsorship. I wonder how many units Mick’s vesturbation act actually sold—or were more transactions canceled after his performance?

Actually, Mick worked with Jimmy Hotz specifically to design the vest for that purpose.

Interesting factoid: Hotz also produced Dave Mason’s “Two Hearts” album in 1987.

You know it's funny to me that most of us die hard's have always hated the drum solo in World Turning. Over the years I have noticed it's the casual fans that eat it up. They love it and they yell real loudly. It only encourages Mick to do it more. For me, I generally use that as my bathroom break song.

Big Love acoustic was my bathroom/grab another beer song.

Yet at the same time, how many of us die-hards would have lost our S**t if Lindsey and John did “Cool Water” live?

Let’s not forget Christine’s voice on Cool Water.
