You are the king of indipendence. Naaah, i want to be the king of creating my own music, you know, and make people happy with it, that's what I want to be. I just want to give energy and get good energy back from the people
You do actually. What are you practicing these days, after all these years of this kind of stuff?
That what you just saw about, you know, of course since drums are, well I write a lot of music, I have like 16 solo cd's out, and I play all the instruments on these ones so, for me this is like the biggest learning process
I never like to repeat myself, I always try to be somewhere else in a few years, so if you see my drums dvd's and you see me playing I'm always incorporating new styles
I never really like to play the same... shit, you know? But some things I do... Like I know for example people love
That kind of stuff, in the drum solos I sometimes feature them, even these I change sometimes! I know that showmanship is important and I like it, it's just great when 
When you're in front of an audience and you interact with the audience, because you're not alone, you're alone on stage but you're not alone in the room
Because that's why you play, it's like an exchange of energy, it really is, it's like being behind the stage and there's nobody actually in the audience, and you can feel that you're kind of relaxed and things are cool, ok get ready for soundcheck
but you can feel the vibe, if like there's still the curtain and you know there are like 2000 people behind, you can feel like the energy
You go on and just give everything with full passion. I think this is such a cool thing that money can't buy, money... See, when I was 19 I didn't have any money, I couldn't even afford a car, I was actually having a practice room 
I was creative, I could do something, and I had a talent for something, or writing music, then I was incredibly proud of and happy with, nobody could buy me that
And I'm still the same even tho I have a house and now I'm in the studios, I do the same things, my schedule doesn't look really much different 
That's something actually that's really priceless, so you're own creativity, talent, and energy exchange between people, that's the most important thing and, I think, the greatest feeling is like just achieving something that you play
And that wasn't there before that is like the Big Bang of universe and all of a sudden you start playing all these Hi-Hat patterns with all kinds of combinations and there's all of a sudden one pattern that you can play and you're just proud of it, you want to show it to the people and you want to see if it works
And all of a sudden people start to like it that's a great feeling, that's an accomplishment, and I'm very interested in that, but mainly what I'm working on it's just writing music that gives me good feeling, makes me happy, just being creative, put something out
That stuff never leaves you that stuff it's always there with you so you can call it your own and something also for people in the world to see and kind of remember
I don't know if they're going to remember me for what I did, but you know what I mean, something you do that makes a statement or something, I'm happy about that.
Do you want to advertise some of your CD's or something? Yes buy my Cd's go to Marcominnemann.com (german, with 2 m at the end)
go to iTunes, you can find me there as well, and come to my shows and check out my stuff that I have. Please find me, see that's a good thing on the web, you can find me on the web or on Facebook
That is a thing I was really actually, happy that the record insdustry actually broke down, because when I was always kind of had to relite with those major companies, those are the people that told you what to play and what to not play
And I always believed no, what I do a certain amount of people want to hear it, people are not that dumb as the industry think, because I remember records that the Queen put out like Jazz or something, or bicycle race, were just incredibly complexed and kind of out and people loved it
And also like modern artists like Radiohead when they put out Kid A for example, which went to number 1 and was such a sperimental album, and Zappa used to be popular as well
C'mon, and this is the thing I'm also incredebly happy and proud of, for example with my band the Aristocrats, can make all the music we like and the people show up
the people show up, if you really give something onestly with passion to the people, they will recive it, and this audience won't leave you that quick, is not like high school audience or some girls who actually like one guy in the band and in a few years they'll like a different guy
It's not like that, this is like, they know what you're doing, they choose it, yes, they choose it and they'll be like oh shit, he is doing a paradiddle between the Hi-Hats, 
It's like How many times does it happend to you that you play a gig and then somebody goes like, hey, you're kind of really happy of your drum solo and they go like, oh man that was really awesome, you totally remind me of Ringo Star
And you think like, no?! no! I don't,but, thank you I know what you mean, you liked the drum solo, I get a lot of times that somebody compares me to, well, not Ringo Star but, like, "Man, you're totally like Keith Moon, you remind me totally of Keith Moon" you're in Carl Palmer, and you go like, mmh... thank you? I guess... 
Of course when I started with that kind of things I worked with Terry and Chad as a trio, that was really awesome, because of course Terry he has his entire orchestral drumset, in the '80's when he started that was very nice and I appreciate also like, Chad's and Vinnie's playing 
These were the guys I listened to, when I listen to Zappa, I mean, Buddy Rich of course. It's just fantastic that there's, this is something, Everybody plays a single stroke roll, but played the single stroke roll and made everybody looking and this single stroke roll and they couldn't take the eyes off from the single stroke roll
Sorry for my language, I'm German, I don't know what F*** means
Just, like, the execution, that's what I'm interested in playing drums solos as well. It's easy to play math, it's hard to play art, right?
I don't know, either way you have that, or you don't, you have to identify yourself in that I guess
That happends with experience, this is another thing i talked about in the clinic today, some things you only get them with experience, people can ask me a lot of questions, and sometimes I go like, you know what?
This girlfriend of mine, she's... this ONE girlfriend sounds good... a girl I know, she's really cool, she's very intellectual, and always have this discussions about poetry and this kind of stuff, and like to discuss about making all different kind of courses that can change 
And I'm like, you know what? Really, I'm exactly the opposite, I don't live with this, you can discuss things to death but you have to come up with something, just be creative, don't identify yourself all the time with what other people say
It's great for a kind of absorbing things and make them your own, but I'm always into being creative, and having something that you present, like, here, no questions asked, analog, there, in your face
So, thanx for sharing your experience with us, it was an amazing pleasure having you and being here with you today! Thank you very much!
