^ Yes it's true, in an interveiw on adlers own website. A fan asked adler why he was called "popcorn". He said it was cause he would pop up and down on his drum kit while playing. I watched GN'R "live at the ritz" 1988. It's true, just look at him play during Rocket queen. Steven is (was) the best drummer ever in my opinion. Can he still play? i don't know i never heard him play since "Civil War".? He's the best!

^ His band Adler's Appetite released an EP late 2004/early 2005 which got 4 original songs and two covers. Imo those songs sound pretty good and his drumming on it is like his GN'R drumming, original arrangements/beats and a great groove 8)

I love that 5 song EP Adler Appetite put out. Not a big fan of Jizzy Pearl but he does a nice job in the studio. Great solos by Keri Kelli and classic AFD-style drumming from Mr. Adler

You can listen to clips here http://www.adlersappetite.com/

"99" is awesome as well as the Thin Lizzy cover "Hollywood"

How was the Draw The Line cover?  A couple months before that came out Steven me and my two cousins were smoking a doobie in my car and we were talking music and shit. Aerosmith came up and he was saying that his favorite song is "Draw The Line"..  I had it in my CD player since Aero is my favorite band. The song was on in like two seconds and we rocked out. After he started saying that he would like to play that.. Pretty cool that it ended up on his disc..

We also listened to Live Era which he had never heard! He didnt even know he was on it for some of it. I played him "You're Crazy" and "Used To Love Her"... Good times.
