Providing A Foundation

"There is always a special relationship between the drummer and bass player. What is it like to accompany Fred?”

Brian: Fred's a different kind of drummer because he's the front guy. So he's doing multiple jobs at one time. 

He's the lead singer. He's the drummer. And he's the conductor. He's not only conducting the band, but he is commanding the crowd. 

I think one of my important roles is holding down that solid foundation. He can do whatever he needs to do as long as that foundation's still there, running solid.
