At about 28:05, Vinnie talks about a "non-alternating flam drag"...
Blushda?
Couldn't resist...what.
Rob
...couldn't resist the "what." , either.

I can't get past the 6:00 - 7:00 minute mark:
"I started with a basic 7 pattern" [drumming] "then started playing on the e and a of the 7." [better drumming] "then started doing over the bar triplets" [insanity drumming] "then 5's ya know" [uber drumming]
Thanks for posting this!

I was pretty blown away when Vinnie casually discussed and demonstrated quintuplet based, over the bar line, fills. I can't wait to try some of that on the next gig.

part of me wants to believe that stuff like 5 over 2 can be played on gigs, but its a matter of finding the spot in a song and the right orchestration.

Nice find on the first one! Lot of that stuff is very carefully transcribed out in the UnReel Drum Book.
Rob - You are absolutely correct, the non-alt-flam drag is the blushda lick
Second clip is an excerpt from here:
