So I went to a Dream Theater concert last night, and I got 3 hours of pure delight.
Mike Portnoy, the drummer, is especially incredible, and owns a "best drummer" award from me. But the thing is, I don't know that many drummers to being with... What are your favorite/the ones you think are the best?

For me he's a great drummer because i'm a big fan of Nirvana, and if you listen to anything pre ghrol, it just doesn't pack as much of a punch. |

From a band no one has probably heard of (There are lyrics in the lyric thread and links to some of their songs in the Now Playing thread - dammit, go listen so I can convert you poor souls
![]() Eddie Hartness from Eddie From Ohio. Incredible drummer on both a traditional kit plus any other kind of drum there is (bongos, djemba, etc.). His hands just fly and his solos in concert and mesmerizing. After a concert, a friend of mine went up and told Eddie that she thought he probably gave a really good spanking! Needless to say, he was speechless. |
