Did anyone else know he could drum, I recently found out he could and was actually pretty good.

Yep Sully indeed plays drums, as DrummerT2k said, he played drums on the first Godsmack album. He's pretty good.
I saw Metallica with Godsmack in 2004, Sully and Shannon Larkin did a dual duet drum solo. They had two kits on two platforms across the stage from each other, the platforms turned and rose up and down. It was pretty cool.

yeah I heard that's a standard sort of thing for them to do. Remeinds me of the Genesis drum duet as far as it being a standard nightly thing.

Actually, Sully did all of the drumming on the first major label disc, and most of the drumming on the second CD. He's a tremendous player, with an awesome sense of groove. When he and Shannon do their thing, it's an awesome sight, since most double-drum solos get all FUBAR with nobody taking turns.

ive seen godsmack twice and they did it both times. if you like them and get a chance to see them live then go because this battle is awesome to see live. last time i saw them, sully played hand percussion for about half the solo while shanon did his thing, then theres a part where they play exactly the same thing and take turns doing fills...very cool to see a band do that.

I had no idea he played. I loved the "battle with Shannon Larkin. Sully's also a huge Rush fan.
