That's what I meant. Not "in those bands" but toured with.

There's a sense of security in knowing that there is finally a touring drummer. Decent choice too.
I'll be the last one to ruminate on whether someone is good enough for a lineup or not until I hear them play with said band. Before NIN toured with Ilan Rubin, I was part of the whole, "Oh my god, kid is freakin 20, what could he possibly know about playing with NIN...." annnnd, turns out he's a FANTASTIC artist, and did a great job on the tours.
With all that being said, looking at this guy's lineup made me do a double-take before moving on with an, "We'll see what he's like." attitude.
Just a disclaimer, it's 3 AM, and I've slept all of 2 hours in the past 3 days, so excuse the rambling idiocy.
I don't have to consider whether the chap is any good, or fits with Marilyn Manson, or anything like that. He played with fucking New York Dolls! Even if that was the only thing he'd done I'd be sold, but from looking at his career history he's versatile, and the videos of him playing online show someone with incredibly naturalistic rhythm skills.
As ever, I am sure he's a hired gun for live purposes, but should there be a concrete Manson band for a few years, I look forward to seeing what Mr. Sutter brings to the mix within it.
