Since this is a prog-inclined woman musician , I’m sure she can disapprovingly wag her finger in 7/8 as well
 
Admire the musicianship. Extra points for choosing that part in that song. It’s one of the best examples of a peak in a nontraditionally structured rock song I can think of, without going into prog land. I love Tool, and I’ve considered this a masterful Tool moment for a long time.

I’d gladly play with a drummer that level. She would have to put on some damn clothes and quit the cute shit though. I ain’t lugging gear to play with a . . . fashion show is the nicest way to put it. Shame, because she’s probably a better musician than me, and could put me in my place on rhythm/timing issues.

Conflicted, on one hand I’d like to admire the musician. I’m old and ain’t that good, but I wouldn’t even entertain playing with a female putting that kind of appeal on front street. I imagine that if she wants to play with musicians that will match/push that level, she’ll run into similar sentiments.

But, I’m totally wrong focusing on the art and musicianship. She’ll make more money dressing like I don’t want my daughter to dress, and will have lines of young chuds that will have no issues playing chugs to feature the public image she (probably correctly) deams most marketable.
 
That's the lazy way to play heels up. Richard Christy said he learned to play heels up from watching Larz in a Metallica video. The platform heels help her stay on point, yet allow her to rest heels up. Keeps her technique stable/regular. I'm betting her calves are badass.
