Perry's good natured bonhomie & the world’s most charmin smile,knocked fans off their feet. Sportin a black tux,gigs came alive as he swished around the stage thrillin audiences w/ charisma that instantly burnt the oxygen right out of the venue.TR.com

For Smith, that's actually sub-par....but still fun to watch!

not at alll...still one of his best, although arguably not his 'best' (Id almost reserve that for the iconic Captured / La Do Da solo)...it's a musical drum solo, in the context of rock and roll...Smith was more hard hitting back then...style has changed tho

Oh no, I wasn't slighting the solo at all. It's a great rock solo and very well thought out...ESPECIALLY as a rock solo. As always, every note has meaning and was meant to be played. There's no 'filler'. The second half of the solo is particularly great. I had no idea the second half existed until I saw the DVD release (it didn't appear on the original MTV broadcast).
Just saying it's far from best drum solo ever, especially one from Steve.

Yeah, Mike is a good drummer. Just not in the same league as Smith, Dunbar and Castronovo.
