Because he just seems like the most down to earth and friendly one of them. and he's an awesome drummer, come on! (and he teaches a good intro to logic class. :thumb: )

Because he's affable, a champion drummer, somebody who still smokes cigarettes (yowza !), loves technology, and has a smashing wife :)

Professor Steve is a rock :)

He must be cool...I wore his face on a T-shirt well after I'd outgrown it...then I ripped the sleeves off and wore it anyway.

Plus, he's always surrounded by Apple Macintoshes, much as I am right now.

And his wife is hot.

Beacuse he was able to avoid the life of crime his father, Morris the Cat, tried to steer him towards :D

Thanks Mr. Church -

I was ready to get good and pissed (American style, that is) if our man Stephen Morris was left off of Emagic's "VIP Users" list.

Yours in Logic Platinum

he looks cool when he plays the drums. he sweats a lot and must get a good workout during every concert, yet he doesn't feel the need (like some drummers i won't mention) to take his shirt off and twirl his drumsticks.

I don't reckon he had time to twirl his sticks...he was too busy actually using them!!!!

0 likes

Because he has been able to come up with some of the most intricate and powerful drum patterns I have ever heard.

Cause his drumming on the Hacienda soundcheck video at times sounds like Drum&Bass!!!!! :thumb:

And he's an...um...animal lover? I was watching the video of Newer Order (the version with Phil) performing "Transmission" for John Peel, and what I thought was a rolled up carpet under Steve's drumkit turned out to be a rather large dog.

Is that just part of life on the farm? Does he stuff the dog in his kick drum to deaden the sound? What kind of moron asks about a guy's dog?

Morris is great. As a young drummer, I was fascinated with his work in 1987, still am, really. recently ended an argument with the 511 video. Had a friend who refused to believe that new order had a real drummer. He's one of those drummers who has his own style to the point where he's immediately identifiable by his sound and technique. Rock on steve!

yeah, stephen is great. you could take away the guitars, the melodies, and still identify the song by his drum patterns and rhythms – gives new orders hit singles a distinctive drive and elegance - a remarkable drummer!
