One of the best all around drummers around (right now) imo (no I'm not a slipknot fan).

Joey Jordison

I think Vinnie is pretty damn good to but I'm bias so...

Vinnie Paul

Bozzio's a great musician and makes great use out of all those toys.

Unfortunately most of the young drummers influenced by him will buy all that crap (the music stores and manufacturers love this sort of thing) but won't ever bother to learn how to keep steady time or even play a decent backbeat.

The one and only Neil Peart (I'm a big fan of this guy)

Here the are building his latest kit (no marks either)

When asked by Johnny Carson if he listened to rock drummers, the legendary Buddy Rich said that he really didn't, but he did mention this guy 'Neil Peart'.

Neil Peart is absolutely amazing.

I also like John Bonham. Different style but let me tell you, I used to just notice Jimmy Page when listening to Zep, but that band was not the same without John Bonham. I think JB is the greatest hard rock drummer there is or ever was or will be perhaps.

Mind you, I also think that Carl Palmer is a drum demi-god.

And Neil is CANADIAN!!!!!!!!! From the Grimsby-Beamsville area I believe.

Lots of great drummers and hard to pick one over the other, especially with so many different styles. My personal favourite of all time is Buddy Rich, he's so damn fast, those sticks flutter faster than a humming bird.

Billy Kilson is in town October 22 with Chris Botti. He usually steals the show. I go as much to see him as I do Chris Botti. Always a fabulous show!!

Here's the same video, except they slowed it down to half speed. Look at his drum roll starting at the about the 6 minute mark, OMFG I can't keep up, just imagine at full speed. This is just not humanly possible!

Peart is the man. He was the one that made me want to play drums. I am also a fan of Carter Beauford from Dave Matthews, Dave Abbruzzese the original Pearl Jam drummer, and of course Kenny Arnoff from Cougar .
