Some days ago I disscused this with a friend. Yeah, it was great when Chris was in the band and both Frankia and Stet are great drummers.... But after seeing the band live a year ago and thinking that the last album is posibly the best in several years.... Do you think that the current lineup (Lawless, Duda, Dupke, Blair) is the best the band has ever had?

I think that the current line up is the best line up of W.A.S.P., especialy Doug Blair which I like his style. I think he is a great guitar player.

I think Stet was great... But I looooooooove the current line-up Very Happy They are all great!! Very Happy And I kinda 'fell in love' with this line-up cause the first time I saw W.A.S.P. it was with Duda, Blair and Dupke Cool

Douglas is my favourite member of the band of all time actually Razz
And when I got to meet him last weekend I felt like being in heaven Laughing Very Happy
He was so great Very Happy

I agree with you: Both Stet and Frankie are reaaaaaally good drummers, but the feeling I got when I saw the actual lineup was that "Hey, this is true band" and not Blackie, Mike and two hired guys. I really hope, specially after seeing what they together can make both in studio and live, that this lineup isnīt changed in a near future.

I also realized that Johnny Rod is missed hehe, I have a video from the Monsters of Rock Festival 1992 with Johnny Rod AND Doug Blair.. That is my second fave line-up Laughing Very Happy

The 1992 lineup was perhaps the best-looking ever, and surely one of the most technical. But I agree that the BL+MikeD*2+DB = ad infinitum excellence. I wouldn't say that there is one definitive WASP lineup technique-wise, as very few of the WASP members have ever been average in their instrumental skills, but the current one appeals to me the most - there's a style to their skill that I love, style that is radically different from the Stet&Darrell era, but amazing nonetheless. Mike D, the Dupke Drummer one, blew my mind for his TASTEFUL approach, so rare in this world today...
