Yeah, as I mentioned above. It's impossible to say that anyone is THE BEST.

I can take a bunch of stuff from alot of those guys and just get brain fucked.

Yea - Dave Weckl kicks major ass - I have 3 of his CDs.

d*

Keith Moon??????? Sure he was funny and even fun to watch but you could get any three year old to bang on mommys pot and pans and get the same sound.

Carey gets my overall vote

Ginger Baker of Cream.

Best I ever saw and I saw a lot.

Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater)
Bonham
Peart
Collins
Rick Allen (Def Leppard)

I honestly don't know and furthermore don't give a shit.

Bill Ward

Neil Peart, Stewart Copeland, Anyone who ever drummed for Frank Zappa. Dozens more.

i dont think you can say one is the best, buddy rich caouldnt do what bonham did and bonham couldnt do what buddy did.

My personal favourite is bonham, he was way ahead of his time, he changed rock drumming forever. i also like lars, his skills are shit, but he is a good performer. there are heaps of good drummers out there though.

jimmy degrasso blew my mind at a clinic, it was the best live piece of drumming ive seen in my life

?uest love from the roots is the only one i ever liked, i dont listen to rock though

50 drummers

It was said once before - Mike Portnoy

joey of slipknot
and daniel pouliot of bleeding kansas.

Gil Moore of Triumph.

anyone whow even knows what a flamacue or paradiddle is is a fag

What was her name..... the drummer for the GO-GOs.....



LMAO

Neil Peart - Rush

neil peart...

KEITH MOON assholes.

Fuck techinque, he didn't have it...but it just didn't matter. Nobody played like him.

The drummer for Tool... HANDS DOWN! :thumbsup

One of my favorites is Simon Phillips I really like his style.
Terry Bozzio is great and ofcourse Weckl , Colaiuta, everyone
on this list is great. Also Stewart Copeland is good and Jack de Johnette.
And Journey drummer Steve Smith and many many more.

He basically played like a psycho, putting his heart and soul into it. Someone earlier on this thread said he had no talent. That someone is an idiot.

blasting slayer now...dave has that 80's metal nuch covered..no one had his speed with the composition

The thread says BEST DRUMMER.........not favorite drumming in a band.......

Buddy Rich is the most talented drummer of all time even though I would rather listen to John Boneham or Neil Peart.

But I mean, come on, Buddy Rich is the best by far.

Yep, Ginger Baker is the best ever.

John Fishman

thank you

Neal Peart of Rush.

Scott Rockenfield

Neil Peart

The guy from Primus and the guy from Tool.

He his... no need to search more :Graucho

I did deisgn work with a company for his website back in 1998 when he just formed his Dave Weckl Band. Met him and everything, watching him live is craazzzy.

I didn't even read the thread cause there can only be one....

John Bonham. ( RIP)

:glugglug

Yeah it's Neil Peart.

He gets my vote, and hell I dont even like 'rock' music. It's the whole one arm thing that won me over.

After careful consideration I think the best drummer ever could be Brat from Got Jizz.

You are welcome, ytcracker! Nice thread!
Last few weeks I've been posting like never before, though.
I think this is my third post this year already :stoned
