Favorite Drummer

Wow.... I can't beleive all the noise - makers that have been mentioned and NO ONE has mentioned Dan Carrey from TOOL !?!?!?!? C`mon guys!

While Neil Peart is hands-down THE best (I've seen Rush about 17 times at last count....) Dan Carrey is probably second in my opinion. Technique & talent closely approaching Neil. I've seen Tool only twice (so far) and he's been the stand-out player both times. And I'm a BASS player and Justin Chancellor is no slouch on Bass! Dan is THAT good studio & live.

Honorable mentions:
The REV from Avenged Sevenfold. Too bad we recently lost him... MONSTER double-kick player. MONSTER.

Ian Pace (as mentioned...) a study in single kick playing. He puts MANY double kick drummers to shame.

Les Binks From early Judas Priest. Another player with a great groove.

Billy Cobham..... If you don't know who he is, put down your Zeppilin & Beatles 8 tracks and go Google him. He's old school and most of you guys should know him....


This is why I avoid music threads: too many opinions :toothy10:
