holy **** !! that\'s a lotta bass drums in a minute!

Speed is one thing, but this girl Caitlins also got a serious sense of groove and rhythm. I was really *really* impressed @ the Freakout when she opened for PB.

Adrian watch out bro, this reminds me of those kung fu movies where the student prodigy leaves his master and then comes back after kicking asses around the world for 10 years to challenge his sensei for the final battle!
