Uniqueness

"Ultimately" unique ? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.140.35.223 (talk) 21:05, 1 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

The article reads like a love letter, not a dispassionate informational resource. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.1.254.42 (talk) 01:08, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"passionate, stylish and ultimately unique skill of playing drums". This needs some sort of clarification. How is it unique? Does he play with his feet? Who says it's passionate and stylish, or are you his agent, or just a starry-eyed fanboy? I tried to change this, but someone reverted. I can't be bothered to fight. He's only a drummer after all, not a proper musician. AuntFlo (talk) 14:59, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Response to: "He's only a drummer after all, not a proper musician." Oh please, so rhythm is not music and a genius rhythmatist with a percussive instrument is not a musician? Percussionists are not musicians? Could you prove your point that percussionists are not musicians? If he plays a melody on his toms, is he then a musician? Please go get a music education.

Katche is a brilliant musician in his sense of using out-of-the-box rhythmical elements and controlling his instrument (as in Peter Gabriel's So or Sting's Nothing like the sun) as well as having a very unique swinging timekeeping ability. Could you elaborate on your point that drums are not a musical instrument? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.156.68.137 (talk) 22:59, 15 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Marcin Wasilewski link

When you click on the Marcin Wasilewski link it links you to a football player not the piano player. I've removed the link. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.72.105.158 (talk) 14:20, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
