A) Could any of those drummers play at the speed of Joey?

B ) So if Joey was twice as old as he is now he could do a 8 minute demonstration of almost every drum style ever?

C)If you play something enough long enough your body becomes adjusted to it, so not breaking a sweat means nothing.

D) You cant compare "People" to anyone like that....
Thing is, Joey ain't the best drummer. He's impressive and can keep a rhythm but speed isn't the key to a good drummer, just timing and precision and keeping it full of taste even if it isn't played at 10000000000000000000bpm. He pretty much is an Extreme Metal drummer (though his band might not be, discussion for another thread maybe) but in all my years of listening to Slipknot in my younger days I've never heard him do a blast-beat fast as fast as he hits drums
