Steve only sounds "simple" on the more recent and expansive music that soic youth has done. steve's drumming on sister, saydream, goo, and dirty is balls out fucking MONSTER drumming. pounding the skins like a goddamn mad man.
I also love how in most sonic youth videos steve is shown reading something, like he cannot be bothereed to participate in the video process! LOVE IT!
plus he signed my shirt.
when sonic youth played Houston about 3 years ago we went outside after the show and waited with around 30 other people for any sonic members to come out and we saw steve (about 100 feet away bu the backstage door) andthe securituy guysacted like he wanted to be escorted to their bus so they started to make a ring around him to "protect" him fromnus the fans, and we were all yelling "steve!" and he grabbed a security guard, pointed at us and (to read his body language) sdaid something to trhe effect of "those are my people"
and came over and talked to everyone and signed everything and wa a fucking great goddamn rock star in my eyez.
