Joe:
I am not, repeat, NOT, saying that e-drums are not drums. (does a 
triple-negative statement make a positive statement?)
Lionel Hampton a drummer? You bet! Had you ever seen him play a kit? 
He wasn't just a mallet man. I'm proud to say that Mr. Hampton hailed 
from my hometown of Louisville, KY.
Future Man a drummer? I don't know, I guess. He strikes things in a 
rythmic-percussive manner that make a drum-like sound. And, I'm proud 
to say that Bela Fleck hails from my home state of Kentucky. Not sure 
about Future Man, though.
Now, the next question is "would a Linn-Drum programmer be considered 
a drummer?"
