Well I know almost noting about drummers, so if any of you could list a few really good, well known drummers I'd appreciate it.

My brother's a drummer but doesn't listen to any particular music to enhance his drumming other than the ordinary. He's more of a jazz drummer though. I think Jon Bohnam (spelling on that) from Led Z. was pretty good. Mictch Mitchelle from the J.H. Exp. too. Other than that I'm pretty ignorant.

Neil Peart (from Rush - probably the best rock drummer around)
Larry Mullen Jr. (U2)
Phil Selway from Radiohead is OK

I second Mitch Micthell (Experience) and John Bonham (Led Zep)


Oh yeah, and Meg White.
... and that's all I have to say about that.

My drummer has been telling me Travis from Blink182 is pretty good. I'm not sure if he's just pulling my leg, because he's the sort to do that, or if its true. It'd surprise me considering that Blink 182 is that great of a band according to my standards.

Actually, he is pretty good, which is annoying, since I hate their music so much.

yea man, i've gotta say from the few stuff that i've seen of him, he's a pretty dedicated musician. it wouldn't surprise me if after the blink phase goes away he moves on to other things involving drumming.

If you can pick up the Zep DVD "How The West Was Won" and watch "Moby Dick".

No one asked if you liked Blink 182... if I want your opinion i'll give it to you!
