Well that was a very nice job of recording drums. First rate. Great tone A number one. And you just discovered that you could record 16 simultaneous microphones on a single drum set? Wow I didn't know you could count that hi? Did you have to smoke something? Anything at all? I think there's something about being south of the equator that makes drums easier to record and sound better than on the Northern Hemisphere? And that was fine sounding recording. It's certainly not going to go down the toilet in the wrong direction. Maybe your drums sounded so good because they have figured out how to speak Portuguese? I know it is know that when I hear somebody speaking a language that sounds like Spanish, French, German, Italian, Greek, it's usually Portuguese.

I'd love to go to Brazil in the winter? All you get is a sunburn during the winter time up here. No painful bikini waxing either.

I am so pale.
